cramping at 8dpo?

luvmygirls22

Hey ladies! So I am a bit perplexed. Period not due for 6 days and (I am 8dpo) having cramping lower left side. Hubby and I did some baby dancing at 5 dpo thinking there was no way conception was possible being so far from o day. Anyone else experience this at 8 dpo? Not holding my breath.

Yes. Yes I do.

I guess I am also asking if any of you got your Bfp following the cramping way after O.

You can't possibly get pregnant at 5 days after ovulation.  The egg only lasts 12 to 24hrs.

I agree with this but was just confused this morning when cramping started. Thanks ladies!

I get cramping after O all the time. Still not pregnant.

Cramping could be anything - don't over think it!  :-)

Agreed. Not holding my breath. I'll keep you updated.

Yeah, I'm 8dpo and having some cramping.  But like others have said, you won't know if it's just random cramping due to AF coming or what.  Good luck.

Also a thought, I get crampy starting right around 5-6 dpo all the way to AF. Could be impending PMS, maybe.

Random cramping at any time in a cycle is completely normal - random cramping between O and period is even more normal, happens to most of us. Before you were TTC you probably had random cramping all the time but never thought about it or just attributed it to needing to poop. And you know what? We're all adults here, you can say sex!

Baby dancing just MIGHT be the worst possible term. I will take preggers any day over "baby dancing"...

I agree, I refuse to use BD or any variant, it's SEX people!  BD just makes me think of this:

Not really how I picture romantic sessions with a hubby!

I cramp pretty much from O to AF.  It's awesome.

Baby Dancing: Is there an app for that? How about a badge? ::keep away::

 Also, OP, I am on CD 16. Cramping daily. Haven't O'd and totally not KTFU.

I'm cramping now and I haven't even O'd yet. I also was cramping a couple days up to my BFP. I wouldn't look too much into it. Once someone is ttgp, it's hard not to notice every little cramp and twinge though.

This dancing baby just makes me think 1999.
