Cramping- When and how bad?

[nothing2lose]

Just wondering how much cramping you had in the 2ww post egg transfer. What day did it start? What was the intensity?

Did you get a BFP?

Thanks!

Hi N2L-
I had no cramping other than an hour of bad cramps (like bad period pain, it woke me up) one night, I think it was 4days post a 5day transfer, so theoretically about 9DPO. This became a bfp so I beleive it was implantation, unfortunately it didn;t stick. Other girls I know who got bfps had cramping a lot over esp over the 2nd week of tww. Good luck, I hope its a good sign!! xx

Thanks Saffy. I have had cramps since yesterday with a couple of sharper pains. Backache too. Today I am 4dp2dt so I am not sure if it is too early for implantation?? I am now walking that horrible line of being positive but not getting my hopes up. Damn this wait

i had cramping at about 8 DPO that had me doubled over in pain which i later worked out was implantation - i felt her first flutters in the same place!

DD got her in-utero nickname as a result of the intensity of the pain - DH asked me what was going on, and i said i felt like a Gremlin was using it's nails to try and bore out of my uterus - when we got our BFP, she became our little Gremlin!

I think with DS's cycle cramping started around the 4-week mark, so not related to implantation.
I hope it's a good sign for you

N2L, I had cramping from about 7dp2dt, and at 8dp2dt it was soooo bad I was convinced af was coming and that it was all over. My LO is now in bed sleeping

Good luck xx

Thanks everyone! Cramps totally disappeared on Sunday afternoon so I had them for about 12-18 hours. None since. Not sure if they were implantation cramps or not! Time will tell I guess!

Mine lasted about that long too. I have my fingers crossed for you xx

Thanks Lise! I am trying not to get my hopes up!!!

If its any consolation, I had no cramping and no BFP's

Hi, 1st time on this!! Been reading peoples info for two weeks, I'm in my ttw! I've got my blood test in the morning, so scared and nervous! Had a stillborn 4 and half years ago and been trying ever since! Gone through assisted fertilisation with no success whatso ever. This is our first go at IVF. Got three eggs, all fertilized but only two made it (one frozen). Well, I've got bad cramps ATM, and back pain which I usually never get pre period and with reading the forums it all seems normal! Sore boobs too but that also could be crinone and other meds! So scared! So nervous! Decided not to do urine test, just wait til D-day tomorrow! Wish everyone BFP!!!!!!!
