Infertility

Does your uterus know...

if you have a fertilized egg?  I'm 7dpiui and have had light AF type cramps since Tuesday that only last about 10 - 15 minutes.  I normally have mild to severe cramps that last much longer and start a week to 2 weeks before AF.

Could I have a fertilized egg that hasn't implanted yet, but my uterus is just doing its typical prep work for AF?  I know that some people say they had cramps and still got a BFP, but I just have a gut feeling (no pun intended) that AF is on her way.

I know this sounds like a stupid question, but please don't blast me.  Thanks for the help!

Re: Does your uterus know...

  • I don't think you can read into "symptoms" like that. It's tempting to anthropomorphize your body parts, but really it's just doing its thing, and if implantation occurs, it occurs.

    I don't think your ute is sitting around "waiting" or "preparing" in that sense. Hormonal fluctuations may be going on to alter its behavior, but you'll just have to wait and see what happend.

  • Thanks for the encouragement!  This 2ww is harder for some reason, but there's nothing I can do to speed it up.

  • I am 7DPO too!! this 2ww is killing me. I cannot wait till Monday for my beta. I have been having some cramping. I don't normally get AF so it's hard to say what's real and what isn't. I am also on PIO.

    Good Luck to you.
