Cramps are normals during this time as there's a lot that's changing in your body at the moment. I got a lot of cramps during my 2ww. I'm going to keep everything crossed for you.

I started testing early as I had no patience, heheheh. My first test was on day 4 which was a BFN, then I ordered the cheapie ones off the net which has 12.5 HCG sensitivity and I received them on day 6, that's when I got the second line on those, day 9 I got the second line on the frer ones too. Xx

Hi Leanne, I am 8dp2dt and I am feeling similar to you - I have had cramps all the way through and I really felt like today it felt like the dreaded AF. I am keeping everything crossed for the both of us! Let me know how you go on test day xx

I didn’t have them down my legs but I was in real pain in my abdomen. And yes I took paracetamol too it’s fine to do that. Your body is going through a lot so just try and rest up if you can. Everything crossed for you xx

And yes I was feeling utterly hopeless about it and expected to see my period whenever I went to the toilet. But by day 9 I suddenly regained a bit of hope. Try and hold off testing if you can xx

krw345 in reply toLeanneward

I was in considerable pain on and off from day 5 to day 9 I think. Did you have lots of eggs collected? That can really make it all more painful. Don’t lose hope. Xx

I actually am I freeze all I had my 2nd cycle in July had a spike on my progesterone meaning freeze all had 4 frosties this wee one is the only 1 to survive the thaw hoping this is the little fighter out of ten xx

krw345 in reply toLeanneward

Well it certainly sounds like it’s a strong’un! I know it’s so hard to do but try and be positive- stress (cortisol?) is really bad for your body so try and be strict with yourself on providing your little embryo with lots of good energy! Xx

Just hope you're doing ok on the 2ww. I'm on day one! I've read that cramping badly like AF can still lead to a BFP, and you're not bleeding so try and relax xxx
