Hi everyone. I am new here. I hope the 2ww is being kind to all of you.
I am roughly 9 dpo and for 12 hours straight I have had a dull ache in my uterus. It doesn't really hurt. It is rather mild like a dull pressure/mild AF cramp.
For those that have had implantation cramps in the past, does what I described sound similar?
Implantation cramps, like bleeding are only a sign verified in hindsight. I cramped both cycles I got pregnant a few days before a positive HPT. Mine were sudden dull achey and I recall a weird feeling on my pelvic bone, like a ticking. I can't describe it. I had it twice though.
Just note it on your chart and in about 3 plus days, take a test and you will know if it was or not. the thing about TTC is, you are now hyper aware of your body. Many of this stuff is your 'normal ' but you just ignored it'. Total mind games
I had similar symptoms for the past few months about 12 dpo and had the same thoughts as you. I also spotted before those cycles for a few days which was not how my cycles usually start. Turned out to be nothing. I was just super sensitive and wishful thinking! Good luck to you though!
I have charted for about 5 years and had 3 pregnancies. I have cramps on pregnancy cycles and non pregnancy cycles. You cannot predict pregnancy based on your symptoms. You're just creating false hope.
The only cycles I didn't cramp were the ones I was pregnant. Go figure.
Truly, symptoms mean nothing unless you have a positive HPT.
If you are looking for anecdotes: My BFF is now TTC after pulling her own IUD out (don't even ask-- there is a lot about this situation that makes me cringe) . She's been nauseated, crampy & craving/eating. No positive HPT as of yet. She's had all of these for two weeks.
im confused a bit right now because I have been trying to conceive for 6 month now and im actually experiencing slow light bleeding that can barely soak a pantie shield.
After I urinate the blood drips slowly (TMI) and I have mild to no cramps off and on but shooting pain in my rectum.
This is day 2 of this unusual bleeding or period which I can't figure out what is happening and if its implantation.
My expected period date is Saturday March 7th but the bleeding started yesterday.
