Hi All - just a quick question. I am on cd23 of a very regular 28 day cycle. I am therefore pretty certain I ov'ed cd14. Last night I was kept awake by pains in my (very) lower abdomen - sort of like period pains. Its gone completely now though. Could this be implantation pains? Do these exist??? I know people get pains around ov, but wasnt sure about this. I had a mc a few months ago, so felt totally paraniod and worried it could be this again, but all seems OK. Anyone had any experience of implantation pains/know anything about it??? Thanks!

newby29 - again I can't necesarily help, but wishing you luck I am on day 28 of my cycle and no AF yet !! I had cramps and some light bleeding on day 23 and 24 and am hoping that it was implantation bleed and pain but I have been at this point before and no luck so fingers crossed for you!

hi newby; i must admit to thinking the same last month & month before, as i was kept awake with period like cramps one night in the two week wait each month. but i now think it was a result of having my cycle go back to normal after iud removal... or maybe something else. either way, in my experience, some period like cramping didn't mean i was pregnant.

maybe someone else can describe implantation pains or say that yes, pains for them meant they were pregnant.

good luck tho & hope yours mean you are :-)
