I guess I'm concerned because the cramps have almost been on and of since ovulation and that usually happens. For a couple days it was near the ovaries and now it's only happening occasionally but in the middle and some in the ovaries. It was really bad around 7dpo. I have noticed I get strange cramps the past few months. It almost seems like the lining is shredding if that makes sense? I'm just hoping those don't start then I really know I'm out. Thanks for the hope Dloui. I still have this feeling I'm out but I'd like to try to stay positive and not get my hopes up.
DH and I are both in our 20's.. so im not sure if it makes a difference..today is CD9 we will DTD today, and i feel like Im starting to soften down there slightly sorry TMI but its one of my signs as I approach ovulation, as i get closer it opens up and gets more softer..
Kiki I experienced extreme Cramping with my DD like i was about to come on my periods any min i would even run to the bathroom thinkin AF arrived this was happening for a good few days and then lo and behold I never came on.. its so annoying because they are almost like period cramping and sometimes were just never sure.
dont count yourself out yet wait a few days before you test!
YES! I have had non-stop cramping lately. I am in the 2ww also and the cramping is just constant. I attempted in Jan and Feb also and had lots of cramping then too. I took EPO in Feb, which works well for me, and maybe that it why. Not sure!! Let's hope its a good sign!Quote:

Fingers crossed for u kikicalQuote:

Magnesium can help alleviate cramping, esp if you are avoiding pain killers. I couldn't get through my cycles without it! Isn't it crazy how some people don't cramp at all? My mom thought girls were making cramps up cause she never had any. Wish she had passed that down to me!
on my BFP cycle which was my 3rd TTC I just assumed that every twinge was AF on the way and I didn't have any HPT's in the house until the evening after AF was due ( usually comes at 6am in the morning like clockwork) and I went out to the shop to buy one and got my BFP as soon as I got home.
I think I was just so much more relaxed that cycle as the other cycles before that I had spent hours analysing every symptom and spent a fortune on tests.
