Hi all,
I'm really quite confused and stressed right now. A quick background - DH and I have been ttc #2 for 10 months now. I saw the Dr a month ago as I was experiencing a long cycle (70 days) and had had a few irregular cycles that were concerning me. He decided to run the bloods trying to identify if I ovulate. I had a blood test on day 21 and that confirmed that I did ovulate, I also got a +opk on CD17. On CD23 I woke up with some quite unpleasant cramping similar to period pains and these have come and gone from that day to now (CD32). I was so sure I was pregnant but I have done plenty of tests and they are all negative.
I can accept not being pregnant and move on to another month. I am not symptom spotting and looking for pregnancy symptoms but these cramps are really concerning me. Sometimes they can be sharp pains that last a few minutes. I have never had particularly bad period pains, and I didn't experience anything like this with my first pregnancy. I'm just wondering if this could be something else and maybe there is something wrong. I don't want to keep hoping for a BFP if it isn't coming. I thought that if you ovulate then you had to get AF or get pregnant but after much googling apparently this may not be true. So now I am confused.
Should I be worried about these cramps for so long?
TIA
