Symptom spotting at 9po

These lower abdomin cramps are hard to ignore! Trying so hard to not get my hopes up, after my miscarriage in May I have tried so hard not to analyse symptoms but my imagination is getting the best of me.

Please tell me I am not alone in symptom spotting!

I'm 8dpo today I think and have woken up with lower abdominal cramps. Trying not to raise my expectations either way. We'll know in a week although I'd prefer to know now.

@bitheby so difficult not to get your hope's up isnt it. I miscounted, I am 10dpo today, i caved and tested and big fat negative!

I tested yesterday actually and of course it was negative.

I got a positive OPK on Saturday 1st Feb but having predicted ovulation that day all my apps then changed my ovulation date to Sunday 2nd. I'm over 40 though which can apparently mean that you ovulate closer to your peak.

So I'm either 8 or 9DPO today. So if I can hold off tomorrow then it's more likely to see something on Wednesday if there's going to be anything there.

I'm TTC with a donor so I don't have sex on tapBlush so I need to know whether I need arrangements to meet him for the next cycle or not.

@bitheby I also got a positive opk on 1st, but then for some reason FF changes my ov date to Monday 3rd.im also over 40! I got a vv faint line on a FRER this morning, but it could just be line eyes. Just order 2 more packets of FRER to soothe my poas addiction.

@Beanchopper I have also had lots of ovulation type pains for the past few days, I'm super thirsty and have been getting bad headaches. Fingers crossed for us all.

Ooh. Fingers crossed. I really had to work hard to stop myself testing this evening. I might try in the morning though.

I'm exactly the same as you all!! Ovulated either 1st or 2nd feb so around 8/9 dpo too.

We've been ttc over a year so I don't have my hopes up (that's a lie, I still do every damn month!) but time will tell. I've got some internet cheapies for poas this week.

Good luck to all!

Hey, last cycle 8-9dpo I had low abdominal cramps.They started in my left pelvic side and then I could feel them more central.Stabbing pains and then dull pain,not very painful but I could definitely feel them.They were on and off for 2 days and then nothing.
I know people say that when you TTC you pay more attention to everything but believe me this was the first time I have ever felt them.Was cycle 3 of ttc,why I haven't felt them in previous months?! I never have period cramps 1week before, and they don't feel the same for sure,I never have ovulation cramps (or at least I've never felt them like this), plus I know exactly When I ovulated because I use OPK.They say the implantation is usually happening 8-9 dpo so of course I thought this is it...I m pregnant...But I was not.Af came 1 week after...there is another thread about this here and one lady was indeed pregnant after these kind of cramps.
I can't find any info about this on the internet, no explanation, but I've found so many questions from girls in the same situation and was is interesting is that every single girl in this situation was 8-9 or 10dpo.
Not sure if you have the exact kind of cramps but I just wanted to let you know that they are 100% real, I don't think we are all crazy(or maybe we are sometimes in this stressful journey,but it s too much coincidence). Maybe the egg it's trying to implant(giving us the cramps)and for some of us is failing ...or maybe this is just a stupid explanation and there is something else going on.I m still thinking about this and I would like to know your experiences just in case it happens to me again.hope you all see the BFP soon!!!!
