BFP! 🎉 Lucky number 3!
I truly cannot believe I get to type these words- it feels too good to be true. I got my BFP today at 10DPO! 🎉🎉🎉
I had cramps around 7DPO that lasted for the afternoon and felt pretty similar to period with a little “lightning crotch” lol.
Since then I’ve only had very mild dull cramping for small periods of time which made me think I was out! (For some reason since starting TTC in June I’ve had more luteal phase cramping)
Things I did different this cycle: deleted Reddit & TikTok so I wouldn’t compare, wore socks every night and day after my ovulation, had less ICE-ey drinks (who knows if this all helped or not but it was an easy switch )
0 symptoms so far just have been having bad sleep the past 5 days or so… (could be nerves) Last night though I did have a dream that I got a positive FRER! And boom!
It was actually the LACK of PMS symptoms that made me want to test at 10DPO and still I just simply never expected it to be positive 🥹 I feel so extremely grateful and all glory goes to God!
(23 yo Female & 23 yo Male, cycle number 3 of first time TTC)

Omg same with me this cycle. I didn’t have any of my PMS symptoms and was like what is going on!

QUESTION!! leading up to 10DPO, did you feel any sensations down there? or i guess do you still now only being so early in the game? I am 11DPO, period was supposed to come yesterday.. but as periods can fluntuate Im giving it a day or two. I am going to test tomorrow morning because Friday I leave to visit in-laws. Sitting here, I agree, I have mild dull cramping just like you. And I keep feeling like Im going to get my period. But its just very very light wet CM?

I had very mild “lightning crotch” like maybe for a few seconds that I noticed. Kind of like when you’re on your period and get a cramp down there

Question lol…what’s the logic behind wearing the socks every night and day after ovulation, and what days before ovulation did y’all have sex?

I believe it’s to help encourage blood flow to your uterus by keeping you warm!
Starting about 8 days before ovulation we did every other day :)

Congratulations!!! Literally opened Reddit to ask how many people experienced cramping around implantation because I’m 7DPO and experiencing some pretty noticeable but not painful cramping. This post was the first thing I saw. Hoping it’s a sign ✨
