Where's my bloody period?

Seriously annoying me. I hate waiting for it.

I'm never late, in fact I normally have 26 day cycles, sometimes 27.

I'm now on day 30 and getting impatient. Grrr!

Someone tell it to get a move on.

Slim poss I cld b pg but hoping not.

Mine is normally regular too (every 28 days)

BennyAndJoon · 25/06/2009 12:33

how do you know you aren't up the duff

Hassled · 25/06/2009 12:33

I have it. I have everyone's period at once. I feel like I've been hit by a sledgehammer.

BennyAndJoon · 25/06/2009 12:35

How old are you?

FabBakerGirlIsBack · 25/06/2009 12:36

Are your dates right?

lostinthecitylover · 25/06/2009 12:47

the funny thing is I felt like a had a double ovulation last month (get pains when I ovulate) so if I take 14 days from second one then should come on Saturday.

Weird have never had that before.

WG come back to thread.

LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 13:02

I'm back - DD demanded my attention.

Hasseled - I'm sorry for you.

I'm 35 and have a copper coil. Have also done a pregnancy test.

FabBakerGirlIsBack · 25/06/2009 13:28

And?

LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 13:44

Sorry - yes, have double checked.

Mine was 12 days late last month. It's a nightmare, isn't it? I just got crankier and crankier until dh was almost ready to leave home I think. Then it was a humdinger, really nasty (sorry).

I think, although I hate to say it, that it might be age... in my case certainly.

weegiemum · 25/06/2009 13:47

Me too. I am 10 days late.

Dh has been vasectomised for over 5 years so I know I am not pg. Bloated, grumpy, spotty, crampy.

I'm beginning to wonder if I am peri-menopausal as this has been happening most months (though never this late before) but at only 38 it seems a bit young!

LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 13:48

MrsF - how old are you?

OP posts:
LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 13:48

Weegie - have you tested, just in case?

OP posts:
mrsflowerpot · 25/06/2009 13:51

I'm 38. I've been getting less regular the last year or so, and my periods have just, well, changed - not so painful weirdly, but my moods are much much worse with them.

LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 13:52

I'm not particularly cranky, in fact less so than normal, am just fedup with the waiting.

OP posts:
weegiemum · 25/06/2009 13:58

I have tested

Didn't tell dh though cos he thinks I'm crazy when I think I might be pg!

weegiemum · 25/06/2009 14:16

I'm very cranky. To the extent that ds (7) asked me if I was OK.

I hate my periods (long, clotty, hormonal) but I hate the waiting more!

FabBakerGirlIsBack · 25/06/2009 15:45

I was And? at the test result, Lil.

LilRedWG · 25/06/2009 15:56

Sorry - negative, bennyandjoon asked how I knew I wasn't pregnant.

OP posts:
LilRedWG · 28/06/2009 17:53

It's arrived, with a vengence.

OP posts:
weegiemum · 29/06/2009 00:02

Mine still hasn't

Doubtless will in the swimming pool or other inaproppriate place.

I tested again today and very clearly am not pregnant. I am bloated, sick, tired, crampy and my boobs are killing me.

Its going to be horrible when it does finally arive!

LilRedWG · 29/06/2009 09:32

Weegie.
