What is going on? :(

Ok. So I'm sticking with my not googling...

Well that's a lie. Each morning I have one google "#dp3dt no symptoms" just to check that I'm not the only one.

I'm 9dp3dt today. Up until today all I've had is some gripey pains each day since ET and one 4am wake up of stabbing pains about 4 or 5 days after ET.

But I swear my period pains are getting worse. My lower back aches and my period pains are stronger. Like stronger than a normal period; like I'm going to have a very heavy period.

I don't want to google this. I don't want to see the many different reasons from people I don't know.

And I know I don't know you lot personally; but you're better than Google. This can't be right. Can it really still be the pessary side effects? :( x

I've had cramps from day 5 to day 10 then it seemed to have stopped I had a weird shooting pain in my left side a few times yesterday almost like someone was giving me an electric shock and the pain shot from my left side up to the top of my left back shoulder it was bizarre but went on for about5 mins. Maybe a trapped nerve or something but weird. I'm spotting today at13dpt so another definite sign it's over for me I think. On the plus side it's looking gorgeous next Sunday for me to go sit in a beer garden for the first time in 5 months. They do say these cramps can be signs of the drugs and our bodies settling down so who knows. My sis in law said she had early cramps with both her pregnancies. I wonder how long we all spend googling on this journey, bloody hours il bet xx
