Why do I have cramps????

QE2QE2 member
in TTC after 35
Ugh, at 5DP3DT, I'm having cramps. With my normal, unmedicated cycles, I always started getting cramps around 7DPO, and would have them through the start of AF. I know they can be a SE from the PIO shots, or even implantation cramping, but it really feels like regular ole AF coming on :(

    Let's hope it's for a good reason!  I'm sure you've heard of lots of ladies who thought they felt just like AF but turned into a happier result.  Stay positive - I'm praying this is it for you!

    Isn't 5DP3DT a bit early for AF? Even if you do usually get them around 7DPO, I'm still going to go with implantation or similar. And, FWIW,when I was KU with my son, I had cramps from about 5 MINUTES PO. So, don't write it off just yet.

    It ain't over until it's over; fingers crossed for you!

    I hope they are implantation cramps!!  I have read so many posts where women said they were having AF type cramps before their BFP.

    Thanks ladies. I'm afraid to think that this could be implantation cramping because I'm afraid to let myself get my hopes up. Also, my injectable cycle last month ended at 10DPO, that's why I'm worried that it's AF already. I'll keep you posted.?
