10 dpo symptoms but no + test??

hi there!! I’m currently 10 dpo today, but began to experience mild/light cramping in the lower belly and lower back around 6 dpo all the way through 8 dpo. I’m still experiencing them, just not as much. They are very different than AF cramps and kind of lower than my normal AF cramps, these are like where my uterus would be. My boobs are also really sensitive and nipples are very swollen.

I’ve been testing since 8 dpo but haven’t gotten really any bold positive line yet, and the ones that I am getting are so light.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? Could it just be slower rising hCG? Is that common? I know it’s supposed to double every 2-3 days, but I feel like my line would be darker by now.

Thoughts? Thanks!
