Dear God I feel like a first timer...Advice?

So today I noticed a new symptom...I have a sharp stabbing pain that does go away but it's inside my umm girly area. Is this normal? I believe I am CD24 I have 1 neg HPT and I am retesting on the 22nd. I had the DB hide the other test to make sure I dont use it before then lol.

So does it sound promising? Ovulation between the 4th and 14th...BD'ing from the 6th to the 14th with my highest fertility day being the 8th according to one online calculator. LMP was Christmas day, I should start around the 21st.

Symptoms are
1. Tender breasts (not bad, just noticeable)
2. some slight off and on nausea
3. Very Very light spotting (size of pin head when I went pee)
4. Menstrual cramps in my lower back(they have been like this for a week) with more recent cramping in the front
and now the shooting pains in my girly area.

What do you all think? Here is the poll

Pregnant or Not pregnant!

BTW: does anyone else use online ovulation calenders? If so what do you use?

I tested this morning FRER Dye test however as digital is $$$ here. And BFN. I am 10dpo I am guessing anyways as I am not 100% sure on luteal phase. I woke up around 6am feeling nauseated as all hell, and begged the DB to tell me where he hid the test lol...

I am unfortunately a smoker, and couldnt even smoke a cigg this morning. I know my HCG levels always run high....and I am super sensitive to the hormonal change. I just can't believe I got a BFN. I will retest on the 22nd. Id think I could get a good result 4 days before expected AF.

Well, you can ovulate and not release an egg.  I think you have a chance, your symptoms sound promising as long as you aren't reading into them too much!

Can you test yet?

So I was playing around with a different ovulation calculator online...and was playing with the luteal phase days, since im not exactly sure how long my luteal phase is, and either way...im probably going to get BFP when I test.....Unless I happened to NOT ovulate this month, can that even happen? lol

The cramping is unusual in itself. I don't even cramp during AF. I know I had the same AF cramping when I found out I was pregnant with my youngest son, I am so excited but so nervous!

oh my, I don't know what to vote?  The only thing that sounds promising (the other symptoms are just retrospect symptoms, because they are so much like PMS) is the cramping.  I completed my IVF cycle about 6 weeks ago and I am 9 weeks pregnant this wednesday.  I just know from about two days after my transfer, which is equivilent to 7 days past ovulation, I had cramping in my lower back and uterus.  I thought AF was coming, but knew it was a symptom (plus with all my IVF meds, it was hard to tell the difference.)

Do you normally cramp this early before you are suppose to start your period?  If it is out of the ordinary, I would think there could be a chance.  Just so you know though, my symptoms didn't really kick in until week 6-7.  Nothing besides tender and LARGE breasts!

GOOD LUCK!
