@Alexplpl I had sharp shooting pain on my right side starting right after ovulation and continuing through about a few days ago. I did have an ultrasound 2 days before I got my BFP and they found a cyst on my right side. Last week it started happening on my left side, i called the Dr and they brought me in a for another ultrasound to make sure i wasn't having an ectopic pregnancy. They were able to see the gestational sac which looked to be on my left side and she said the pains were most likely due to everything stretching.

I had cysts before. Twice to be certain. One when I was 19 years old and didn’t end well. It burst and I ended doing laparoscopic surgery to clean the abdomen area since at my first hospital visit when I started being in pain they send me home saying it was nothing and I will be fine. The cyst caused problems being 3 days without treatment. I don’t remember much but I remember the pain. Second time at the age of 27 fortunately it went away by it self but the pain was the same and it’s something I’ll never forget. Nothing like this pain now. Hopefully is nothing near this and it’s something irrelevant.

Lalou I’m so sorry Af came but I’m happy to see that you’re excited about this cycle! Sending hugs your way!

@alex I’m doing ok, sore boobs especially my nipples and the exhaustion is real! I have had no morning sickness or good aversions yet which I am completely embracing as I know when I got to 6 weeks with my son I was hospitalised with HG. My sister had a baby 4 days ago and I was birth partner along with her OH and it was a traumatic but amazing experience - I didn’t see the actual labour as it ended in theatre with ventouse as did her first child’s labour so I’m still yet to tick off watching a child be born on my bucket list.

Love & Hugs xx

Noodle that’s so amazing being there on your sisters labor! Where I live they allow only one person with the mom and usually the husband. All babies are delivered in a surgery room.
Hopefully you won’t be feeling very uncomfortable with morning sickness!!

AFM I’m 8DPO waiting for AF next Monday! I’m not having any feeling at all of me being pregnant so
Everything is as normal. The shooting pain calmed down fortunately and I’m only feeling light cramping and breast pain which are very common for me! I wish I could be pregnant pffff

@Alexplpl the only symptoms I had were the sharp shooting pains and gas/constipation and af like cramps!

Omg girls, I just need to write myself out. My period was supposed to come today, it havent started yet. I didnt took any tests on the morning but I took two now, it's evening here, I'm supposed to look at those after 5 minutes, I did, there wasnt anything I think. I know-I know, I shouldnt look at it later, but 6 minutes later one got light pink line. It can be evap, but I'm going cray-cray, even my husband can see that pink shadow line. ~15 tests what I've taken before with my batch havent had any evap lines, but I read from feedback that there are people who got evap lines and even faulty positives, and even people who didnt got BFP with these tests until they were week or even more late and already had BFP woth other brands, someone had BFN when blood hcg was around ~500, but at the same time there are many ones who got their BFP way before AF was supposed to come ,gaaaaaah, I just wanted to write myself out. Can't wait until morning, less than 12 hrs to go, I'll take 10 of those ???? and if my period doesnt start tomorrow I'll go buy some tests from pharmacy. It would be a miracle if I'm pregnant after all that time, and now if my period come, I'll cry a ton ps: it's been 30 minutes and they both got what I think are evap lines.

Right after posting it my left ovary started hurting like "here comes the period" gaaah why am I doing it to myself

@Nasake - Everything crossed for you hun! I hope AF stays away and you get more tests. Post some in your gallery if you want other eyes to take a look for you.

AFM - I looked back at my OPKs from last cycle and I'm convinced I surged overnight in between CD 19 and CD 20. That aligns with me getting my period 14 days later. Anyways hoping my cycle shortens this time so I'll try and remember to start OPKs tomorrow or the next day.

Me too I have fingers crossed for you @nasake. You deserve a bfp.
And you too @Flamingo.

AFM starting Letrozole (Femara) tomorrow. Ultrasound and blood tests as well.

Staying in prayers.

Stressing out right now! My son just STOMPED on my lower tummy with one foot and it HURT would that affect my chances? I'm 5dpo so wouldn't have even implanted yet... Still WHY would he jump on my stomach NOW?! Seriously dude I am TRYING to make a best friend for you!

OK feeling more calm now, lol. Ahem. Now I know I'm only 5dpo, but as I have disclosed in my bio I am a serial symptom spotter, and let me tell y'all I have spotted a couple symptoms. Most notably - round ligament pains, starting this morning when I got out of bed! It's unmistakable for anyone who's had them before. I'm also having little teeny cramps. It's so early and logic tells me not to pay any attention to symptoms before 9dpo but I can't help myself! I'm hopeful!
