7dp5dt - stabbing pains

[Elsidee11]

hi all, I hope you’re all well. I’ve tried to ignore most symptoms of my tww so far, however I cannot ignore this pain 😰

I started with light cramps all day yesterday - but today I have a sharp stabbing pain quite low down, it becomes really intense at times. My tummy is a bit bloated, and when I press it, I can feel the cramp - is this normal? Or should I call clinic? Wondering if anyone had similar and what the outcome was xx

Hi Elsidee. It might be the start of an infection. Make sure you drink plenty of water and keep an eye on your urine output. Speak to GPif it persists. If it is your ovaries then same protocol to drink lots and take paracetamol if needed. No anti inflammatory tablets such as ibuprofen. Good luck! Diane
