Where is AF?!

She was due on Saturday. Still hasn't put in an appearance! I'm temping and my BBT dropped Sat (usually predicts period starting), rose Sunday (definitely not usual) but then dropped below coverline again this morning. I'm fully expecting AF any minute as I don't feel the slightest bit pregnant (BFN this afternoon too), but I'm getting really fed up now - this is a tortuous wait.

Where is she??

I didn't feel pregnant either til I was in third trimester 😂 nothing bar a period that never showed up! If it was implantation etc it may take longer for HCG levels to come up or it might just be an off month. Fingers crossed for the outcome you want OP.

Thanks @Samind. I'm just so frustrated! Husband and I are desperate to get pregnant but this doesn't feel like it. Last time (MC) felt very different.
Hey ho! Patience required.

Have you tested again today?

No, can't face the disappointment if it's BFN and no tests left anyway. I'm turning my frustration to good use by uprooting some seriously tenacious weeds from the garden (and going to the toilet every half an hour to see whether AF is here yet 😆)

Thank you for being so kind, and I'm sorry for the whinging! I'm just so wound up about it because I can't risk getting my hopes up, it's too destructive when it turns out I'm not pregnant every month.

I have someone in my circle going through the same thing! So talk away as much as you like and need to.

How are you feeling? Cramps or any usual aunt flow syntpoms?

Nope. No PMS symptoms and no pregnancy symptoms either. Just a decreased BBT and no AF! I am hopeful that she'll start today - I just want the wait over with.

Thanks for the support though :-)
