    I'm at 7dpo and I've been having some mild cramping. Trying hard to not read into it too much though. I sometimes get some cramping at random times. Fingers crossed for you!!!

    I've been having this too. But now I am about 11 DPO. Every time I use the restroom I expect to see AF. But so far, I've just had a tiny streak of brown blood in some CM once a day for the last three days. That happens sometimes before AF for me, but I'm hoping with all of my hope that it is a sign of implantation bleeding. AF is due on the 21st. Trying to wait until then to test.

    Yes! I mentioned this in another thread. I had horrible cramps (like af cramps) on 7 and 8 dpo, which I've never had (or noticed anyway) before. I thought it might be a good sign, but now I feel like af is imminent. :(

    Ever since TTC, I get random cramps on random days. Every time, I start to read into it and make myself crazy. Hang in there.

    RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.

    My cramps keep coming and going so I don't know what to think. But my temp jumped all the way up to 98.31 this morning, which is super high for me. I start to get excited but the AF-like cramps knock me down. Why can't this whole process be more simple?

    Sorry to hear that @Sporty1216

    At this point, I take so much ovulation-stimulation meds, that my ovaries cramp up for the entire TWW.

    So at least that helps distract me from symptom spotting.  I mean yeah, it could be a thing, or it could be the chili you ate last night.  Just breathe! 
    Me- 39 (turning 40 in April), TTC for the first time ever (since Jan 2015), low ovarian reserve
    Married 3/14/14 to my wonderful wife, but her sperm count is rather low
    TTC with frozen donor sperm and science

    7 IUIs, 7 BFNs.
    2 IVF attempts, both cancelled and converted to IUI, both BFNs.
    Decided that my tired old ovaries are ready to retire.
    Next step- reciprocal IVF, using my wife's eggs, my uterus!  
    fresh 5 day transfer (2 embryos) 4/17/17- BFP! 
    Identical twins "due" 1/2/17 (but anticipated arrival sometime December)

    Thanks, guys. So far, it's just some spotting...which is not usual for me. I feel like I am in limbo. If it's gonna start, just start! Ugh. Thanks for being a safe and supportive space to share this. It's all I can think about today.
