What is Implantation Cramping like?
I'm CD 25 (11dpo) in a cycle that's usually dead on 28 days (13 day luteal).
I'm feeling pretty emtionally drained at the moment as I was woken up at 4.40am to very painful cramping. Exactly like period pain but worse. (I should clarify that usually my period pains are not too bad - i might take one naprogesic and continue on as normal ) . I'm assuming that this is a definate AF sign, tho haven't had spotting yet. (only a bit of spotting from a pap smear i had yesterday and that was a different colour).
I went back to sleep for only 1.5 hrs then decided to temp anyway and it'd risen again a bit. But it may not be accurate as 1.5 hrs before I was pretty emotional (had to happen i think as I hadn't the past two cycles and this time hubbie is away at work :( ) So that probably affected my temperature.
Anyway i'm just curious, even though I'm REALLY clutching at straws now, for anyone experiencing implantation cramping. Exactly how painful is it? My idea would be it would be like a dull flicker or something, not painful at all. But can it be like bad period cramping?
I guess I'll know by end of the day as usually cramping happens then AF arrives that day.
