Question

8dpo and pain in side, similar to ovarian pain

Hi all,

As the title suggests, I am 8dpo and have been having mild cramping the last few days (6po and on), and today I started having some sharp ovarian pains. Due to the pain I had during ovulation I am pretty sure I ovulated on the left side.

This is my first time TTC, so I am not sure what to expect. I took a HPT this AM which was negative, obv as it is super early. However, is this pain anything I should be worried/excited about??

No need to worry about it. For me stabbing pains and pinches in the ovaries are part of the luteal phase every month. These annoying stabs make me think "implantation" but then in the end AF comes. I have 4 children and do remember pinches during implantation then. Unfortunately, for me the pinches are identical in pregnant and non pregnant cycles. Hope this helps somehow.

Thank you! I was on BC for 10 years and went off 3 months ago, but this is our first cycle trying. BC messes everything up so much that I am not sure what is "normal" for me anymore! Still hoping for BFP, but trying to be realistic =)
