Not feeling positive

Hey there! I'm currently in my 2WW (8dp3dt) and having period cramps, fullness down there, and had major mood swings yesterday (I think DH was going to kill me). I started spotting yesterday (brown discharge) and POAS (BFN). Chalking it up to implantation spotting, but having this not so good feeling that this cycle is a bust. My Mom and Sister keep telling me to not count it out until the Beta lady sings, but this 2WW is killing me. Three more days until I go in for beta. Did anyone else have the same symptoms?
Me: 37 DH:41

2/9/2016 - FET #1 with Grade A (8 cell - 3 day embryo); 2/20 - Beta was <5. BFN.  :/ Waiting for period and start next FET.
7/8/2016 - FET #2 with Grade B (8 cell - 3 day embryo), fingers crossed this one sticks. :)

    Called the nurse today and she reassured me that because the spotting was brown (sorry, TMI), that it was old blood that may have been from implantation. And the twinges and cramps I'm feeling are normal and may be symptoms. I have not had to go through this in 5 years so it's all new to me again. So I have renewed hope and will just wait until Saturday for blood test.

    Good luck to you @JustLilOMe

    The last week has been the most taxing! The first was pretty easy to get through. I just feel like a cat who was forced into the bath or a long car ride. I'm scratching at the walls. Took another HPT this morning and it was a BFN. Oh well. I'm going with it's too early. :)
