Symptoms or wishful thinking? Did you have this?

Some strange symptoms happening right now...AF due in 9 days, cycle day 25, not exactly sure when I ovulated this month, but I have very light and very mild cramps and earlier today I had a sharp pain from my left side down to my vagina. Anyone ever had this and had a BFP? I also had a small amount of brown mucousy discharge which i never get. We BDd and tried a lot this month and I am really hoping this is my month and that I will get my Christmas wish! Your experiences and opinions welcomed, thanks!!
