Shooting lightning pain down through my lady parts!

I'm either 9 or 10dpo! I've felt full and different in my lower abdo for days. Today I've had pulling pains when I've stood up and a shooting pulling sharp behind my bellybutton (I think). I've also had a sharp lightning bolt pain downward through my vagina (starting from my uterus perhaps?) that made me gasp and took me back a bit. Could this be implantation? Has anyone else had this and lead on to get their BFP?? I don't think I get this each month with AF!

I'm around 7 DPO and have had the same thing this morning! Was googling it earlier to try and get an answer so this is promising 😂

This happened to me last week and I started spotting and then bleeding, it’s really weird because I wasn’t due my period until the first so if it was AF it was 4 days early which is really weird.. I’ve since stopped but have gotten spotting after DTD and still having mild twinges. I don’t know what’s up but I’ll probably take a test in the end of this week just to be sure and keep an extra eye on my BBT

I’ve read various things about bleeding and spotting in the first trimester, because these pains were definitely not anything close to normal, nor is an “early” AF.. felt a bit nauseous lately but not sure what that’s about 🤔

Crossing my fingers it’s good news for you both, any other symptoms?

@gingerglitter4ever ooo that sounds like it could have been implantation bleeding, fingers crossed for you

Ive has this many times, as do a couple of my friends. It was them that first told me about it and I laughed, until it happened to me. I think it's actually called ' lightening crotch'. It does happen in established pregnancy but also when you're not pregnant too. Unfortunately I've never been pregnant but hope it works for you

Hey ladies,
Got a headache again today and pinching again.. anyone else experiencing this?

How are everyone else’s symptoms?

Ellabella234 · 04/02/2020 11:08

@gingerglitter4ever lots of pinching pains today for me too and I got this too on a Superdrug early detection test this morning. It is less sensitive than a frer so I'm hoping a frer will show up ? I think I'm 10dpo now. A bit shocked anything came up - I'm going to go and buy some frers asap..........

I tested one day after the spotting/ bleeding had completely stopped but it was a BFN, reading up it says to keep an eye out and test about a week after..
looks good for you though @Ellabella234 !! Sending baby dust and keep us posted!!
