3 DPO cramping 😱

Haley • 👧🏻 7/17/18 👼🏻 6/30/20 🤰🏻(twins) 4/6/21

Today I woke up with mild cramping and it has continued on throughout the morning. Now I do have mild cramps the day of and day after ovulation but never after that until right before a period. Is this a hopeful sign? Has it happened to anyone else?

I feel like this is our month (cycle 5 of TTC) but I could just have too much hopeful thinking! PS my cycles are very regular and I always ovulate around the same time. Period is NOT welcome 10/15. I reached my peak ovulation (line darker than control line) on 10/3.
