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!

Sorry to hear that @Gillseybear 😔 it’s crushing every time! But we pick ourselves up and start a new month.

Still nothing for me. I’m starting to think I’m out… 10DPO and a BFN on another early response test. I know I’m not actually out until AF shows, but I feel like the majority of people at least get a little hint of a line on a test so sensitive at this stage 😞

@BeckyPfromLeeds and @LateNightTalk , how are you guys getting on?

Thank you all. I have had a little bit of a down day today because I managed to get my hopes up again. Oh well at least we can start again this month and see what happens

Thanks @LateNightTalk ! I definitely think it could still too early for me, so I think I’ll try again each morning and just keep my fingers crossed. I am starting to get some cramps now but obviously hard to tell whether they’re just normal cramps leading up to AF!

Fingers crossed you get good news when you test on the weekend! Keep us updated 😊

LateNightTalk · 07/03/2024 15:32

@Gillseybear so sorry AF has come and rose their head early! It's so disheartening I know but time to refocus onto the next cycle

@BeckyPfromLeeds there’s still hope! After hours of reading posts on here the saying is you’re not out until AF arrives!

But I would also say enjoy your night tonight! You can’t live of what if buts and maybes, you’re allowed to enjoy yourself even in the anxious TWW!!

@TTC1992 give it another day and test again! Cameras play tricks just like our eyes keeping everything crossed for you still! Even if we all have a bad case of line eyes!

Nothing to update from me still crampy and twingy at times. No spotting etc so feeling it may not be my month! Hard to test until the weekend as on night shifts so body just does it’s own thing!

@BeckyPfromLeeds it’s so upsetting every time. Let’s hope you just implanted late! I’m still only around 9DPO so I guess it’s potentially still quite early for me.

I’ve realised that you can’t see anything whatsoever in the photo so must think I’m mad 😅 there was definitely more of a tiny hint of it in real life, but as I said, probably just wishful thinking!

I know. It's heartbreaking isn't it. This is mine from this morning 😢😢

So sorry @Gillseybear 😞 When AF comes, I like to tell myself “well this is day 1 of a potential pregnancy”. I know it doesn’t help much, but it gives me a little bit of comfort.

@BeckyPfromLeeds I’m not a huge drinker, but I’m of the opinion that I will continue to have a few drinks to unwind until I get a BFP, otherwise it is just all consuming! So enjoy yourself 😊 well I took another early response test this morning and thought I saw a vvvvvvfl, but I think it was just line eyes/wishful thinking 😓 I do this every month, I just can’t help myself!

Oh no @Gillseybear I'm sorry to hear that.

I am 13DPO and BFN but no sign of AF either. I still have a full feeling in my uterus and odd cramps so still have a little bit of hope.

I am going to an awards event tonight and I normally drink a lot of red wine and feel I shouldn't drink as much with potentially being pg. What would you guys do? I'm generally an all or nothing person but can't not drink as they will know there is something up 😂

How are things for you @TTC1992 ?

Gillseybear · 07/03/2024 08:45

@TTC1992 Turns out AF decided to come early. I have woken up this morning and I am in full AF. I have no idea what's been going on this month but the cramps are being a bitch.

@Gillseybear seriously wishing you all the luck and baby dust in the world! I think it sounds promising that it could be implantation bleeding, but yes, it’s just a waiting game now. Please keep us updated!

Thank you so much and I really really hope so.

@TTC1992. I hope so to but I am not hopeful at the moment. It's just a waiting and seeing game. It's got slightly more noticeable on the tissue but still only spotting and not on my underwear.

I have always been very irregular growing up unless I was on the pill but I have never had spotting before. So I am hopeful but I guess I just need to wait and see I guess but starting to lose hope now.

@LateNightTalk I definitely see the line! Maybe you did ovulate earlier than you thought. Good idea to wait til Friday though as that should give it enough time to get darker if it’s your BFP 😊I really hope it is!

@Gillseybear fingers crossed for you that it’s implantation bleeding! Definitely a good chance it is if you’re still 5 days away from your period being due 😊Is it normal for you to experience spotting?

OP posts:
Gillseybear · 06/03/2024 16:35

Yeah it does look like a proper line to me. Try and hold off and see what happens come Friday. It does look promising though and maybe you ovulated earlier than you thought.

I hope it's implantation but I really do not know. My Af has a habit of being all over the place and so it's just a waiting game right now.
I have added some photos and so possible TMI

There's some colour to it but so hard to tell as it had dried so I'm counting it as a no go and next time I'm cutting the damn tests up!! 🤣

Potentially sounds like implantation so fingers crossed 🤞🏻

I'm going to hold off testing till Friday 🙄

Gillseybear · 06/03/2024 15:23

@TTC1992 @LateNightTalk
Well I am confused as I have just been to the toilet and I have started spotting. It's only very faint but it is noticeable on the tissue.
Could it be AF that's come 5 days early or could it be implantation?? Why do our bodies do this to us?

Gillseybear · 06/03/2024 15:22

LateNightTalk · 06/03/2024 15:11

This was the test this morning!

Please tell me it's an evap and I'm mental!?

Things feel different this month and I'm sending myself loopy 🤣

How are you all feeling today?

It's really hard to tell in that light but it looks like a positive to me. Was there any colour to it??? It's a clear line though.

@Gillseybear completely understand! I don’t know why I tested as I knew it would probably be negative regardless, but I just couldn’t help myself. However, in doing so, I have obviously convinced myself even further that I’m out this month! Arrrgghhh why do we do this to ourselves?!

OP posts:
Gillseybear · 06/03/2024 14:39

@LateNightTalk @TTC1992 honestly it's been so hard not to test at all. I want to test so bad but if I do that, it means that if it's negative then I will have gotten my hopes up for no reason. I am currently around 10DPO according to Flo and my symptoms started at around 6DPO.

TTC1992 · 06/03/2024 14:34

Wow @LateNightTalk ! Was it an early response test?? I have never had any kind of second line (not even an evap), so I really hope that’s the start of your positive! Definitely test again in the morning and keep us updated 😊

I know what you mean, I tell myself every month that I won’t symptom spot or get stressed, but alas 😅 let’s hope this is a lucky month for us all!

OP posts:
LateNightTalk · 06/03/2024 12:01

Thank you! 🥰

If it makes you feel any better I caved and tested last night!!

Negative in time frame but there's a faint line there this morning! I have told myself off and told myself it's an evap line but I've never had it before!

I promised my partner we wouldn't get OCD when TTC but I am driving myself crazy over here (he's chill as has a DS already) 😅

Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🏻

Hi guys..

Can I join? Currently 6/7 dpo TTC my first and 3rd month of trying since removal of my mirena.

Hate the TWW and symptom spotting, cycle was 36 days last month which is about a week longer than normal likely due to stress.

Sunday I was on a run and had to stop because a mighty wave of cramps like period type cramps but pretty fiesty and made me feel sick. It went away after around 5 minutes and since just keep getting random twinges more so on right side

No spotting or anything

BBs are tender but isn't unusual before AF but don't think normally this early!

Due to fly Tuesday so hoping for my bfp before then to surprise DP with!

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@LateNightTalk of course you can! We are virtually at the same point. I caved and tested this morning even though I promised myself I wouldn’t (of course it was a BFN, I’m only around 8DPO). It’s so hard to know at this point what symptoms mean, but your cramping sounds promising if that isn’t normal for you! I really hope you get your BFP! I’m really struggling this TWW because of my twitching symptom which I’ve never had before. It really got my hopes up but now it has disappeared. I find myself just wishing time away and wanting to get the days over with so I can find out 😞
