Cramps on 2ww

So I'm 4dp5dt today and feel so "periody" crampy, tired hot and bothered. I'm hoping this is normal I feel like I'm going crazy!

Anyone else experience these symptoms I just want to get to the weekend to test so I know the hcg is high enough to be picked up xx

I know how you feel

People keep telling me to stay positive but I know my body to well. I feel absolutely wiped out today just as I do before I come on. Sucks hey xx

in reply to Oliverl

It really sucks and agree I know my body and after 2 previous failed cycles and an early loss I just know. Have you got any frozen? X

Hey I had the same thing im now nearly 5 weeks had my first bfp a week ago. I still have cramps and feel like period is going to come. I think unless the pains are really bad it's all normal. Good luck with the 2ww x

I had exactly the same thing. Am still having cramps and hot flushes and bfp was Monday on otd. I tested two days early and got a bfp but didn't believe it till today with the third test done and another bfp.

My OH says I've got to stop peeing on stick now and chill lol

Well the nurse put doubt in my mind on otd. To be honest you can't send women off with a new test they've never done before with no instructions at the end of the crazy 2ww and expect all to go well!

Your not alone, I've been feeling like AF is going to arrive for the past 5-6 days. Feeling really bloated as well but no other symptoms. Fingers crossed its a good sign but struggling to stay positive. Wishing you loads of luck! Xx
