6dpo sharp stitch-like pain on left side

41 replies

GoldLeafTree · 05/09/2019 04:03

I'm around 6dpo, I've had some mild cramps/twinges the past 2 days and I've just woken up in the night (after a crazy pregnancy dream) with a pain like a stitch just on the left side.

Is this normal? What could it be?

Wow having some really sharp twinges out of no where in the right side of my abdomen just bit lower than my belly button to the right and lower down too, kind of like pulsating! 6dpo could this be implantation?!

That's exciting @Yougottabekittenme I've had a few twinges but not sure if it's all in my head only 8dpo it's going to be a longggg week

Yougottabekittenme · 10/09/2019 17:41

@mrssunshinexxx my app says I am 11DPO but I reckon I’m 13DPO. Yeah I had loads of pains and twinges the past week or so and today and yesterday I had really severe cramping and bloating, I was convinced AF was on the way, I was due it today but no sign so I decided to check again. Going to get First Response and test again at the weekend to be sure 🤞

mrssunshinexxx · 10/09/2019 17:33

Congrats @Yougottabekittenme how many dpo are you have you had any symptoms? X

Each2TheirOwn · 10/09/2019 17:03

@Yougottabekittenme Look positive to me! Congratulations x

Yougottabekittenme · 10/09/2019 17:00

Ladies I think it’s a positive? This is a cheapy 5pm test! But that looks positive??

Yougottabekittenme · 08/09/2019 16:38

@GoldLeafTree sorry to hear about you BFN and appendicitis!! At least you know now and can move on to the next month of trying! I have really bad AF type cramping today, really hoping AF keeps away 🤞

Each2TheirOwn · 08/09/2019 14:36

@GoldLeafTree I'm really sorry to hear that! Hope you're feeling better soon Another month = another chance x

Hi Ladies,

BFN for me. I came to the walk-in centre last night as the cramps were so severe. HCG levels show i'm not PG but do have appendicitis!

Never mind, it's only my first month so i'm sure it won't be long

Please do keep me updated on your results though, I have everything crossed for you.

@mrssunshinexxx I took a photo but it’s not at all visible in it 😂 I could only see it in a certain light! I’m still holding out hope it gets darker!

mrssunshinexxx · 08/09/2019 10:44

@Yougottabekittenme have you got a pic ? X

Each2TheirOwn · 08/09/2019 10:11

@Yougottabekittenme fingers crossed that line gets darker for you 🤞🏼

I'll be testing on Tuesday if this spotting doesn't develop into full blown AF x

Yougottabekittenme · 08/09/2019 09:20

Morning ladies! So I tested with a cheapy test this morning and I swear I can see a very faint line but tbh I could just be imagining things 🙈 AF is due on Tuesday and I usually start spotting 2/3 days before and nothing yet so fingers crossed! I’m gonna wait until I am late to test again!
Anyone else test this morning??

Each2TheirOwn · 07/09/2019 17:55

@GoldLeafTree Hey, how are you feeling now? Still crampy?

I've just woken up from a 2hr nap 🙈 I'm not usually one to sleep during the day but yesterday and today I've felt shattered! I also noticed a little bit of 'spotting' this morning after going to the loo. It was just a very light brown tinged streak on the toilet paper when I wiped 😔 I'm CD28 today (10DPO) so thought it might be AF showing up. I put a liner on to see how heavy it was going to get but I've just checked and there is only a tiny streak on it and nothing when I wiped 🤔

I'm trying to stay possible and think maybe it's implantation but I'm not holding my breath. Will be on constant knicker watch now!

Are you finding things to do in your time off to take your mind off the wait? (apart from watching every pregnancy related video on YouTube) 😂 x

AlwaysLearning123 · 07/09/2019 16:47

Welcome its great to share while we patiently wait

mrssunshinexxx · 07/09/2019 13:44

Thank you @GoldLeafTree and you. I don't think I have any symptoms yet I'm only 5dpo gunna see if anything happens over the next week xx

@mrssunshinexxx

Hi ladies please can I join I'm on a couple other threads but I find them so helpful as can't talk to anyone one real life dh would think I've gone mad if I told him the thoughts that go trough my mind every day I'm ttc 1 cycle 6 Af due tues 17th I thought I felt a couple twinges but I know it's all in my head and too early x

Hello! Of course you can I think DP is sick of me constantly telling him I'm cramping or counting how many wees I've had and symptom spotting all the time haha

I'm cramping lots this afternoon and I'm not sure if it's normal to be cramping this much. It's like period pains but they last about an hour each

I really hope this month is the month for you x

@Each2TheirOwn

Every slight symptom I have I'm googling " X early pregnancy symptom " to try and validate it

I'm getting really ahead of myself too don't worry!

I've had no boob symptoms whatsoever either. Maybe that will be in a few days time. I've been watching videos on YouTube of people's symptoms in the TWW and some had no boob pain or no cramps so I think it's different for everyone. I can't help but compare though

I've had cramps all day today, they seem to be worse in the evening and at night. I've had constipation too! I never thought I'd be discussing this online with someone haha

Thank you x

Each2TheirOwn · 06/09/2019 12:35

@GoldLeafTree haha, I'm exactly the same! Not off work unfortunately but spending my evenings glued to MN Conception board, googling dpo symptoms and watching pregnancy related videos on YouTube 🙈 I also spent hours scrolling through fun ways to announce pregnancy to family (I'm getting way ahead of myself)!

Nausea and exhausting and 2 main symptoms 😁 I've had cramps, twinges, constipation and gas (sorry, TMI), stomach ache (prob caused by the aforementioned) heartburn and a big spot. However I haven't had sore boobs/nipples, nausea, fatigue or any of the other common symptoms that those lucky ladies who get their BFP report as having.

Hope you're enjoying your time off x

@Each2TheirOwn That's good to know, thank you for reassuring me! Feeling rotten today, really exhausted and nauseous.

I've got one FRER which I'm holding out for until (if) I get a positive on the IC.

I'm off work this week so I'm just sat at home symptom spotting like crazy, looking at pregnancy announcement videos on youtube and overthinking things
