Too Early for Ectopic Signs?

Hello.
I'm currently 8dpo, sure of my OD as it was a monitored Superovulation cycle.
Official test date is Wednesday, 10dpo, no point in testing before as could still be lingering trigger and it's also very early anyway.
As of 5dpo, I started having this pain on my right hand side tummy just below/right of my belly button. It feels mostly like a stitch than other kind of pains as such (it's not at all like period cramps) and seems to come and go although since yesterday I had 4 instances of it suddenly spiking for a few second to more like a stabbing pain.
I believe 5dpo is way too early to start feeling any kind of ectopic symptoms, but also read one-sided pain could be a sign of.
Looking for some reassurance that it's unlikely to be ectopic this early on, but cannot stop worrying, anybody had similar pain and turned out to just be normal implantation/chemical/BFN?
I have no other symptoms and the pain is very localised. Just some very mild nausea a couple of times and sore breasts, but I am on Cyclogest and had those last month too when it was just a BFN.
Any direct experiences you could share would be grand.
I totally get even if the pain is unlikely to be connected I still wouldn't be able to rule out EP until a PT and beta HCG, but would love to rule out this one thing is possible.
Thanks

My pregnancy test lines got fainter.

If you're concerned speak to your doctor though.

Hi @carsty it was a BFN in the end and the feeling stopped as soon as AF arrived. So could have been PMS, but my money in on bowel gas or a little inflammation. It wasn’t at all like period pains and I don’t usually get that as a PMS symptom. I’ve had another 2 cycles since, another BFN and the current one that’s just come to the end in a chemical and neither times I had that stitch again.
I hope it’s a BFP for you, cramping at that time in the cycle can be a sign of implantation 🤞
