Hello All,
I am new to this site and so forgive me for the lack of abbreviations. I am 28 years old (29 next month!) and had the mirena coil removed in May of last year whrn i was diagnosed with endometriosis. Any how..... Since June 07 i have had regular periods of 25 and 27 day cycles average is 27 days. I was due to start my period on Sunday 27th January (sunday just gone) but have not. I have had slight cramping but not the same as my usual pmt symptoms, more of a sort of dragging, heavy feeling (if that makes sense to any 1!. I have also been feeling very tired for the past two weeks and have been going light headed and dizzy, some headaches and feelng sick (but not sure if is due to headaches! Have done a clear blue digital this morning and it said not pregnant, Does anyone have any words of wisdom for or any similar situations????
Please help i am very confused, and have been crying at the slightest little thing lately!!!

Thanks for your time.
Claire.x.

It sounds like you have all the symptons of early pregnancy... So you are on day 29 of your cycle? Maybe it's still a little early to test. Have you been TTC (trying)?
I hope you get the result you want.

Thanks for your reply!

I had the mirena coil removed in May last year and we decided i would give it a while without going onto the pill just to letmy body get back to normal, I had no periods at all for the 2 years i had the coil. We wern't calculating ovulation or anything but decided we would leave it to fate and if it happened it happened!!

The thing is we only did the deed (so to speak) once this month about 4 days after period had ended do about day 8 of my cycle.

I'm not sure if i'm psychologically bringing on symptoms, but i have been very regular since June 07.

The test i used said it couldbe used 4 days before period was due..... so i assumed it must be extra sensitive! But it doesn't state anywhere on packaging or internal leaflet what levels of HCG it detects.

Any further thoughts??

I know that when you test a few days early it can detect (in lab testing..) and that it is something like 60% accurate. You BD (baby danced) q early but I suppose you could have OV early..
If you still haven't started your period I would do another test tomorrow and see what it says. How many days late are you now?

Hi Claire,
Hope you are still about! I'm in a similar boat to you at the moment; 27 day cycles, was due on Saturday, have a few symptons but tested BFN yesterday; Argh! Have you tested again yet? I used a cheapy test so was trying to blame that, but maybe I am deluding myself?? The dragging feeling you describe certainly sounds very familiar (am TTC no.3 and had that with DS1 & DS2), as well as being light-headed and tired. Sorry, these aren't words of wisdoms, more the ramblings of a crazy lady sharing your confusion!!
