Question for ladies who just got their bfp

[Savasanna]

Hi ladies,

I was just wondering if any of you experienced any sort of cramping during your tww/right before you got your bfp. I really thought this cycle was the one for me, but now my temps are (barely, but still) slowly heading down and the uterine pulling I was experiencing is starting to feel more cramp like. Not full one cramping, but.. sharper pulling (??) I guess is the only way I know how to put it.

TIA and Congrats to you all!

I had, what I think, was implantation cramping that lasted only a couple of minutes but was very severe and very unusual for me. It was sharp enough that I was doubled over and my husband was asking me what was wrong.

I had lots of cramping, definitely anticipated AF, even now I still have cramping! Good luck!!

I am super aware of my body and knew exactly when this little peanut implanted. Felt like a sharp jab a couple of times in the same spot very low down - it actually woke me up in the middle of the night... next day I had a very small pink spot on toliet paper. Then I had cramping off and on till about 6.5 weeks, now I dont have cramping really. My Dr. said very common for cramping!

yes I had cramping and thought it was the beginning of another cycle but surprise surprise no period ever came

I had lots of cramping from the day after ovulation til BFP

From ovulation until 13 dpo I had mild cramping and on O day and Implantation day I had sharp pinching on one left side where my ovary is. To think of it, all of my cramping was on the left side.

Then 13 dpo came around I started getting AF cramps, we all know her cramps verses regular cramps, I thought for sureeeee I was getting my period, kept running to the bathroom for a tampon. NOPE. She never came but BFP did.

Thank you, everyone!

I'm feeling SO reassured now! I totally thought I was out from how strong the cramping was. I was expecting a huge temp drop this morning but, surprisingly, it actually went up a little. Today is 12dpo so I'm probably going to test either tomorrow or Sunday. Fx I'll be joining you all soon!

Have a great weekend!

I have been trying to get pregnant for over 2 years, so I am quite aware of my body... but this pregnancy was a definite surprise. The only thing that even clued me in that something was different was that my temp didn't start to decline at 10dpo. I have luteal phase defect due to my PCOS, so my luteal phase is typically only 11-12 days. My temps start to rapidly decline by 9-10 dpo if I am not on any sort of fertility meds like Clomid or Follistim. I figured my body was doing dumb things again, but since I was slated to run a 5K the next day I figured I had better just get a test out of the way. The line was super faint, but it was there. Blood test at my reproductive endocrinologist's confirmed it a couple hours later... and of course I was put on progesterone immediately because it was only 8.8.

I will be 7 weeks tomorrow and other than immensely sore boobs, bad fatigue, and some cramping & nausea... I still have a very hard time believing I am pregnant.

I got pms style cramping for a few days right at 4 weeks. I already knew I was pregnant, but if I hadn't I would have sworn AF was on her way.

I'm feeling the same way hard to believe there is someone growing in there
