New here! Implantation cramps? TTC!

Periods are irregular by 6 days give or take. TTC with partner.

Had ovulation pain in my stomach and legs (dull ache low in stomach on both sides and both legs achey on and off) for a week now. It stopped yesterday.

For about 10 seconds today I had a stabbing feeling in my stomach. Is that what implantation cramps feel like? I've had no bleeding with it.

I've had a weird cycle this month a lot more pain than usual and weird little symptoms.

Any advice will be appreciated!

Hi all!
I'm TTC with my partner.
I am 2 days late from my period, which I get very regularly. 28/29 day cycle and a 4 day period.
I had a little spotting Saturday which was my day due on. But nothing since... What do we think? Too early to test?
I keep having almost like a pulling feeling similar to period pains but don't want to get my hopes up too early!
Thoughts please?? X

I'm guessing it would depend when you ovulated?

I'm in a similar boat with funny cramps - praying it's implantation pain!

I'm 5DPO today and still get twinges which is something I haven't had before but I'm not sure whether it's in my head / me hoping!! Xx

ttcgracie · 20/10/2020 22:29

@Twinkle1989 same here! I think I'm about 5dpo and I've literally had like 4 episodes of little stomach twinges! Which I've never ever had before. My boobs are Abit tender too today which makes me think it's the usual time this happens every month so maybe my period is coming! Which I'm gutted about, also my cervix has gone hard and cervical mucus has gone Abit dry so I really feel like I haven't conceived this month! Gutted but my stomach is jus aching weirdly and so are my legs so I'm just 50/50 at the moment 😂

Hey ladies! I just got a clear BFP today at 9dpo, I think I implanted at 5dpo as when I was trying to sleep that night I had a really sharp stabbing pain in my uterus that lasted maybe max 5 seconds, then it just stopped and I never felt it again. I didn’t have any bleeding. I never had this pain in any previous cycles so I think it was probably implantation, especially as my 9dpo BFP is so clear.

My CM has been basically non-existent as well so don’t look too much into that side of things ☺️

Good luck to you all!!

@Nam095 OMG!! Biggest congratulations!! So jealous... haha.

Because my periods are slightly irregular I don't really know when I ovulate but I first had ovulation pain on both sides around 10 days ago.

Then again 7 days ago along with really achy legs (like growing pains of you ever experienced them) I usually get that the day before my period. I've just had them on and off and again tonight I have slightly achy legs and little twinges in my stomach here and there!

My boobs are tender (which they usually are at this time of my cycle as I'm due on in a week or so) so it's made me feel Abit negative that I haven't conceived! My cervix is also hard now too! So I have no hope at all but my fingers are crossed I'm getting so impatient now! What other symptoms did you have?

All the best for you I bet you're over the moon!

Thank you, sorry I jumped on this post by accident as thought it was a new one! Its my bday Thursday... Debating whether to do the test then!! X

ttcgracie · 20/10/2020 23:05

@JLIS it is I posted it about an hour ago don't worry! Lol.

Aw yes I can't wait! Let me know how it goes!

Achy legs and weird pain in the right side of my stomach again this evening!😩really annoying me now

JLIS · 20/10/2020 23:15

Awww hope it becomes more regular for you and that you work out the pains. Bodies are weird things!!

ttcgracie · 20/10/2020 23:17

@JLIS they really are! No idea what else they could be so I really do have my hopes up! Haha. I still have another week to wait!

Hi all. I'm in a similar position. I am 8 dpo and have a very full feeling low in my stomach and have been getting period like cramps since yesterday and lower back ache, not due af until next monday. I was pregnant back in August with very similar symptoms and just knew I was pregnant before I tested as I had the same 4 years ago when pregnant with dd. Unfortunately my pregnancy in August ended in an early miscarriage and this is my first proper cycle since. The wait is killing me but I just know that this is not my usual symptoms of periods and as said had the same in August. Fingers crossed for you all!

ttcgracie · 20/10/2020 23:57

@Blughbablugh hey there! So sorry to hear about that! I have my fingers crossed for you this time!😇

Same here! But then again every month during the two week wait I convince myself I'm pregnant... every month 😩 it's so heartbreaking when my period comes.

But this month it has been a bit deferent. Legs aching on and off and off twinges in and off for a week... which surely isn't ovulation?

Very confusing!

I've been TTC for 6 months now and I've just convinced myself that Im not pregnant, I'm just imagining it 😩

Hopefully we get some BFP's soon!🥰

😭 but sore boobs is a symptom?
I normally get sore boobs around now - due on next Friday... but I haven't got that now but worried that I should if pregnant?! 😂 I could easily convinced myself either way! When are you testing?
I said I'd wait until 30th but I'm not sure I can contain myself - I have FR ready and looking at me...!

ttcgracie · 21/10/2020 10:19

@Twinkle1989 honestly same!

I normally get sore boobs that get literally double the size!😩around a week before (it's around a week now)

Yesterday they were tender and big, now they're just big and don't feel tender at all?😂 everything's just different this month! I can't get my hopes up too much though...

I think I may test on 26th/28th!

@JLIS @Twinkle1989 @Nam095 @Blughbablugh @premum1 how we all doing today? X

Nam095 · 21/10/2020 18:38

@ttcgracie in response to your message yesterday my cervix has been hard the whole time so don’t rule yourself out just yet ☺️ The only symptoms I really noticed, which are actually weird ones, was aching teeth and sneezing every day. My boobs haven’t been sore at all! Which is very unusual as well. I’ve also been having dull cramps pretty much every day and some twinges here and there. Also getting headaches in the afternoon past few days.

I did some different things this month that I didn’t do in previous cycles, but I have no idea if they’re the reason how I managed to get pregnant this time 😂 I drank pomegranate juice over ovulation and over the TWW, I didn’t have any sex/orgasm since the day after my ovulation, I stopped drinking coffee, and directly after DTD I put a pillow under my hips and raised my legs and rested them agains the headboard for 20 minutes each time 😂 sounds OTT I know

I have my fingers crossed that you’ll get a BFP soon 🤞🏼

ttcgracie · 21/10/2020 18:57

@Nam095 aw so pleased for you!

Yeah my boobs ached a few days ago. They're bigger but the lain has gone? They're just bigger? Really confusing! I haven't had cramps I've just had weird twinges but I had them during ovulation Also up until yesterday and achy legs! Which are symptoms but I think I may just be imagining it!😩hopefully I TTC soon! I bet you're so excited xxx

Twinkle1989 · 21/10/2020 20:55

I've given in and done a test - knowing full well it was too soon and then got upset - what's the matter with me?! I did this last month, set myself up for a massive fail 😭

Due on 30/31st so maybe just try and wait until next weekend 😭😭

No symptoms - I just feel bloated but I've been eating like a pig so probably that.
Xx

Blughbablugh · 22/10/2020 08:19

I've tested and got a (faint) second line on a first response. Smile10 dpo today. Im hoping this one will stick this time as only got to 6 weeks last time.
