Are these pains a good sign?

Hi Ladies, I'm now 3dp5dt and although had some crampy pains nothing major, again less than what I'd normally get with period pain but today i'm having some sharper stabbing pains in my left side. They aren't hugely painful but wondered if anyone else has experienced this? It's under my bottom ribs.

Hi MrsTM13, I'm a day ahead of you and getting similar pains, especially if I laugh, cough or move suddenly. My view is that it's still my body recovering from EC. I asked a similar question to you on here yesterday and was told it's normal. Hope the 2ww isn't driving you too crazy yet!

I thought I was doing well but I pretty much want to POAS every other minute to see what it says but I know it's too early. Some people have huge range of symptoms and so far i've only had a couple. I read online about starting to test from tomorrow onwards. X

Tomorrow? wow! I thought 9dp5dt was the earliest that HCG could be detected. DH wants to wait until our formal appt a week on Fri in case we get a false reading doing it ourselves. I'm not sure I can wait that long!

I think it's different for 3 day and 5 day. I could be wrong but I am going to start I think and see what happens.

My DH is the same. He knows though that I won't be able to wait. It's pretty much every second thought I have. X

I had horrendous pain in my left ovary but scans showed it was just enlarged which is pretty normal after treatment. I also had horrendous period pains at the time my natural period was due and can remember telling my hubby that I knew it hadn't worked! It had! I'm 16 weeks and all going well! In fact I was very cramps until I stopped taking my progesterone pessaries!

Good luck xxx

I'm in the same situation I had really bad cramps but they have subsided today. After lots of reading I think it's everything calming down. I would like to think it's related to implanting but trying to be realistic.

Good luck with the rest of the two week wait xxx
