i have been having pains like im ready 4 my period since last week also been sick dizzy and tired ive done 2 tests and they are negative does anyone know if i have done it to early as im due on in 2 days

I had a lump in my breast. went 2 docs & got it checked out. was not cancerous, but was down to being hormonal. the lump went down then re-apeared. i can remember being really worried & told my mum,who said i should go back 2 the docs again. the next day i was complaining about it 2 my friend & my boobs were extremely senitive at this point too & she quickly said 2 me "when was ur last period?" i nearly died with imbarassment as i could not remember wen my last period was. i took a test at the docs & i was 12weeks pregnant. After this i can remember running 4 water every 2minutes & i had a fetish 4 prawns, cheese & onion sandwhiches & strawberry milkshacks. I would also gag every single time i cleaned my teath.

I think this time there is no chance I am. Spoke to dh and we have agreed to start ttc later this year so I should be happy with that but still cant help feeling gutted. I am now wishing my period stays light and lasts only 4 days, this is what happened with my first dd and so did not think I was pregnant because i had a light period. Found out at about 8 weeks.

So silly how out body tortures our mind, all night I kept thinking about a little baby ... feel like a fool now and did not admit to my dh that I tested twice!

colditz - thats very interesting!

Well shortly after posting earlier I started my period, quite light but cramps have got worse.

I just got in now with kids and feel shattered.

This happened to me and I was pregnant - didn't show on a test until 3 weeks after my due date - the clear blue digitals missed it.

i did with all 4 of my pregnancys never been more sure that im going to get af then when im pregnant

I had really bad cramps for at least the first month of my pregnancy, but then I was getting really bad period pains anyway so it didn't seem out of the ordinary to get the cramps, they didn't make me think I was pregnant just that I was coming on, which obviously never happened.

I felt 'pre-menstrual' both times before finding out I was pregnant (DS1 - didn't get a BFP until about a week after AF was due; last pregnancy, got a BFP 2 days after AF due). I have never been a good symptom spotter. It all feels the same to me - I feel grotty, tired, crampy, sick.

Sorry to hear that your tests aren't coming back as you'd wish, but just in case you are pg, I wouldn't worry about Folic Acid, there's loads of it in cereals and bread these days so you'd be fine. Hope your tests start playing game soon for you!

Morning

I got my dates wrong and today is actually day 29 of my cycle so I am just one day overdue.

Woke in the night and could not sleep, tummy felt odd - strange feeling.

This morning I was bursting bit tried to hang on until 7am so I had a good morning wee to use for a test - test was neg !!!

So weird, maybe I have a bug then because I feel so queasy - that familiar feeling, I know it and I never normally have it.

My body is telling me I am but 2 Clear Blue Digital tests are telling me I am not so I guess that have to be right... unless I have a longer cycle this month like 31-33 days which I had the odd one's last year so I still could be?

I need to stop thinking about it now.

Wish my period would just show up to end all this silly thinking.
