Twitching in uterus during TWW?????

91 replies

TTC1992 · 04/03/2024 14:59

Hi :)

Hoping to find others who have experienced this (and hopefully got their BFP!)

So, I have been experiencing a fluttering/twitching in my uterus pretty relentlessly for the past 5/6 days (since ovulation). I fully understand that it’s easy to become a bit obsessed with symptom spotting in the TWW, but I know for 100% certain that this is something I have never, ever felt before (and it is definitely not in my head - I can physically feel it and it will happen even if I’m not thinking about it!)

Has anyone else ever experienced this? It’s kind of like an eye twitch, no pain whatsoever. It’s driving me crazy!

I got so invested in all of this! Does anyone have any updates?

IR123 · 04/07/2024 19:28

Im experiencing this also! Im 6 days DPO & just started having flutters 🤞🤞

BeckyPfromLeeds · 14/03/2024 06:29

No news from me. CD74, 20DPO, BFN and no sign of AF. I had a really bad headache and nausea yesterday to the point that I had to go to bed in the afternoon. I still also have a heavy/full feeling in my uterus. So still don't know what to think.

How's everyone else doing? X x

LateNightTalk · 14/03/2024 00:49

How we all doing ladies?

Day two on holiday and AF came early!

Only positive from all of this is I can make full use of the bar!! Otherwise very deflated!

@TTC1992 yes it’s horrendous. I got pregnant when not trying but miscarried at the 5 week mark. It then took 6 months to conceive again, and my daughter was stillborn and then it took 18 months to conceive again and that resulted in my son. It’s a ride for sure, that no one tells you about. You assume you’ll just get pregnant so easy.
My advice, as cliched as it is, is relax. We also used preseed lube (think it’s called something else now) and I also did a load of exercise around the time I conceived my son. Think that helped as well, got the blood pumping!

Thank you @Noshowlomo

Started trying in October, so around 5 months. I know that’s perfectly normal, but it just feels so long when you’re in the midst of it doesn’t it 😞

I’m sorry @TTC1992 I may have missed it but how long have you been trying for?

Well girls, it was definitely an indent because AF showed up this evening in full force 👍🏻 another month down 😞

Thank you @TTC1992 I haven't tested today as I am starting to feel like maybe I didn't ovulate and all my symptoms are all due to my dodgy cycle and my body playing a nasty trick on me. It could even be the pregnacare preconception, I've been hearing a lot of bad things about it so once I've finished this pack, I might change to just the individual vits.

I am still cramping and have a full feeling in my uterus most of the time but I'm trying to ignore it, but, we still dtd this morning just in case 😂

@TTC1992 Fingers crossed you get a darker line within the time today. Good luck hun x x

Arrrghhh, I really don’t want to get my hopes up! Either way, thank you all for at least making me feel like I’m not crazy for seeing something. I think I’ll try again in the morning because I’m not sure I’d get anything without FMU. This is going to be a long and torturous day 😅

@LateNightTalk slightly out! I left it on the side for probably about 10 mins whilst I went down to make a coffee because I was just expecting nothing again! It could just be an indent I guess, but I’ve never had a proper shadow before, so I’m hoping it means something!

@BeckyPfromLeeds so sorry, I missed your previous comment! How are you getting on today? It’s horrible when AF doesn’t show but you’re getting negatives 😔 the fact that you have been referred to the fertility clinic already though is promising. I’d maybe follow up with that and push for an appointment if it turns out this isn’t your month?

BeckyPfromLeeds · 10/03/2024 09:47

I can deffo see a shadow. Eeekkkk!! 😁😁

Noshowlomo · 10/03/2024 09:36

Yeah I can see something

LateNightTalk · 10/03/2024 08:44

@TTC1992 I think I can see a shadow... 🤞🏻

Was it in the time frame?!

Good luck to all wanting BFPs! I’ve been where you are and had the weird fluttering and he’s 5 next week so everything crossed for you xx

BeckyPfromLeeds · 09/03/2024 09:59

Same here @TTC1992 I am supposedly 15DPO, CD69 and BFN with no sign of AF 😭😭

How long should I leave it before going to my GP? They already started doing some testing in Feb last year and referred me to the fertility clinic which I am still awaiting an appointment for. I am just so confused 😕

😞 Sorry @LateNightTalk ! I have read before that LH can rise if pg, so maybe that’s a good sign! If it’s any consolation, I’m still getting a BFN too this morning. I’m trying to remain hopeful, but I think there would be at least something there by this point as AF is due on Monday 😓

I could resist the urge and had to test

Of course it's negative!!! But my LH is 0.45 on my easy@home ovulation test..

Maybe I've got my dates mixed up

Feeling deflated.

Arrrghh the twitching is back! 😫 what on earth is going on!!

@BeckyPfromLeeds , loving your positive attitude! I of course still hope it’s good news for you, but I’m happy that you have made peace with it if it’s not meant to be this month ❤️

@LateNightTalk wow, I’ve been having really weird dreams the past few nights too! One of them was a VERY vivid dream about me learning to be a midwife, but I just put it down to babies on the brain 😆 I hope it means something more!

LateNightTalk · 08/03/2024 15:19

Hey ladies..

Still nothing from me.. Boobs are sore but do get that before AF.. I'm not due AF until mid holiday (Thursday) so planning on testing Sunday / Tuesday 🤞🏻

Only strange thing I woke up having the weirdest of dreams and in floods of tears but that could also be my nights playing on me! 😅

Think I'm only 8/9 dpo currently

BeckyPfromLeeds · 08/03/2024 12:06

@TTC1992 I have the easy @ home tests which are 10miu.This is my test from yesterday.

Fingers crossed it is coming but I won't be too bummed if it's not to be this month x x

@BeckyPfromLeeds hopefully your positive is coming! Do you have some more sensitive tests? At least we will both know soon enough and this agonising wait will be over 😅

OP posts:
BeckyPfromLeeds · 08/03/2024 11:45

@TTC1992 according to my app, if I ovulated on 23rd Feb as per my peak strip, I am due today. But if I ovulated later, I might not be as many DPO.

I last tested yesterday and it was a definite BFN. I just don't know what to think, especially with the weird cramps and feelings going on down there!!

Fingers crossed @BeckyPfromLeeds ! I know what you mean, it feels like there’s no chance of conceiving on your first try, but you never know! Just as much chance this month as any 😊 how long til AF is due?

OP posts:
BeckyPfromLeeds · 08/03/2024 10:42

I feel the same as you @TTC1992 with my BFNs. I am now 14DPO and still nothing. Although, I didn’t test this morning after my late night with a few drinks. I still have a fuzzy feeling down there so maybe there is still a chance. I just don't know.

I have read on here (and other forums that I'm on) that some people haven't tested positive until well after their AF. So, I don't feel too down about it yet. After all, it is still our first month ttc plus with me being 42 with a high bmi and suspected peri-menopause and suspected pcos, I would be amazed if we fell on our first attempt 😂😂
