Cramps after ovulation?!

Hi!

I have been ttc for a long time. This month we have ttc more than before incase I keep missing my window.

I had a positive opk on Sunday 3rd September - it's now Saturday 9th so not sure when I ovulated?

I have had cramps for the past 3 days that are quite strong - not in pain or anything but I do keep getting cramps. I don't think I normally get like this after ovulation until far closer to my period.

Is this a good sign of pregnancy to get cramps after ovulation??

Thank you

Honestly it's too soon to say anything at all. I've had cramps all the way from ovulation to period before, and sometimes nothing, and every mix of days in between! Just have to sit tight, try not to symptom spot and wait for AF to show or not show. Fingers crossed for you.

☹️ I'll try not to get my hopes up. I've been trying for a long long time anyway so im used to the disappointment unfortunately

I know the feeling, I was trying 2.5 years the first time and 6 months the second time and both ended in missed miscarriage. It's so hard not to symptom spot but unfortunately for us the symptoms of pregnancy and the symptoms of periods can be very, very similar so for sanity's sake it's best to try not to x
