ttc and early testing

Hello!
DH and I are ttc and I am due AF on the 7th- so 4 days time.
But, I have been having symptoms (like every month sigh) so I tested today and BFN. I KNOW I shouldn't have tested, I wish I hadn't.
But, is there still a chance?
I am so confused with all this ttc business.
Symptoms- cramping 28th-30th, sore breasts, swollen 'uterus' area, really tired.
I am cramping now and convinced AF is on her way to make me break down again.
This is our 3rd month ttc, so a REALLY short time. But, I have never been on a contraceptive and am quite young (22) so is Hubby. It just seems everyone else falls pregnant without thinking about it and after I got married I assumed I would too... but no.
I am going out of my mind and have been since September. Goodness only knows how I will cope if this goes on for years.

Hi ilike ,
You still have a chance but try your hardest not to stress. The way I look at it is that by now you either are or you're not. There is nothing you can do about it so leave it until the day of your af to test.
Please try and relax about it (i know that's easy to say, but It's 3yrs down the line for me and I wish I'd have relaxed more in the earlier months and almost "enjoyed" it iyswim.
Good luck

I got my BFP 4 days before AF was due. Doesn't happen for everyone so don't panic if not. Good luck.

You really do need to relax, 3 months is no time at all. I am 25 it's been two years, nothing wrong with either of us. It's just one of those things. Wait until AF is due, you will send yourself bad otherwise and don't put do much pressure on yourself. My doctor told me the average couple takes 9 months! Good luck
