CD34 now, usually a 32-33 day cycle, I have been so good this month - no symptom spotting, no early testing....now I am officially late (latest I have ever started is afternoon of CD33) - so I tested last night and this morning with a standard First Response test (not the Early Result ones) each time, and both unarguably BFNs Sad .....what is going on? Everytime I go to the loo and there is no blood the little ball of excitement that is growing inside me gets bigger, but I just know that I am not pregnant and AF will turn up eventually (no symptoms at all).......anyway, just a rant really - feel free to ignore!

Hi girls. I'm in the same boat as you all! Previous cycles 37 & 35 days. Today is cd 44!!! Poas this morning and bfn! [Sad]

Going to wait until Friday and test again. How frustrating is this!!

ThingsThatGoHumpInTheNight · 23/02/2014 09:05

I just tested again- BFN of course, cd37 today....beyond fed up. Had terrible cramps and felt sick last night but otherwise non symptoms of AF/BFP at all. Think I am going to accept the BFNs as accurate and jist try to carry on as normal now, it's getting too depressing!

Can I join in, I thought we were out this month as we Dtd a bit late, figured I'd already ovulated, but I have 26/27 day cycles and this is cd 30... Bfn this morning. If i ov'd late I suppose a bfp is going to be late too?! But I think my body is just playing silly buggers :(

Hibou7688 · 23/02/2014 08:33

Clinging on to that little bit of hope! When really I know AF is gonna arrive any day! I've had no symptoms of it arriving though. :-/

Helen87 · 23/02/2014 08:02

"Some women show up accurately on a test the day they miss a period, while others may not show up positive until 3-4 weeks after a missed period. We encourage women to test after a missed period; if the result is negative they should wait a week and test again if a normal period has not started."

Just read the above on an American pregnancy website. Could give us some hope?!

Hibou7688 · 23/02/2014 07:55

Wasn't gonna test... But obviously did! Bfn!

babytinks89 · 23/02/2014 07:36

Anything today girls?

Still bfn for me! I was thinking to myself iv been averaging my cycles around 28 days but since mc iv had a 37 day and a 34 day cycle! And now sitting on cd36!! I thought if i average out i maybe ovulated later? So i looked back on when we dtd that week..... And should have pretty much had a bfp yesterday or today, but still bfn and i'm testing with early responses!! ??

NannyGR · 23/02/2014 07:25

Can I add, had mild cramps yesterday (not at all like period pains) and have funny taste in my mouth for a few days!! I wonder if I'm just going crazy as it's been soo long ttc now x

NannyGR · 23/02/2014 07:23

Slight spotting now for 1 day, only there when you wipe (sorry if tmi) normal period would usually be in full flow now. Holding on to hope of possible late ovulation, so late conception so this could be late implantation??? Am I crazy to think it could possibly be this??? Or do I need to just give up hope and admit it's over for this month!!! Just tested also and BFN :-(

ThingsThatGoHumpInTheNight · 22/02/2014 21:08

Ooh, helen sounds horrid. I am feeling exhausted today, but that may be because dh has hurt his back and has been moaning all day Sad Still no sign of af, but I have quite a few spots coming up in my face, just not in the usual period places- forehead rather than chin. I am also bloody grumpy, but most likely a combo of worrying about af and putting up with dh Sad

Virtual wine but lots of actual real Cake is ok! woo!

gloopygloop · 22/02/2014 18:50

Good to know there's a few of us in the same boat! I am going to try not to test in the morning if Af hasn't arrived. I am also on virtual wine just in case!

Helen87 · 22/02/2014 18:13

It really is! Thanks, virtual Wine has to be better than no Wine at all!!!!

Hibou7688 · 22/02/2014 18:07

Oh no Helen. That sounds rubbish!! Have some virtual Wine not quite the same I know!!

Helen87 · 22/02/2014 17:00

Hi can I join?! Came off the pill in October. Took 8 weeks to have a period after that, it was weird and lasted like 11 days then 29 days after the start of that I got my first proper period, all the cramps, back ache, spots, the lot. It's now 37 days later with 3 bfns and no sign of AF or any AF symptoms. I was pretty sure I was going to be pregnant because I had some tiny little spots of blood last Saturday which I thought was implantation bleeding, plus I've been weeing loads and having ridiculous amounts of milky cm (tmi). I also had all the same ovulation symptoms that I had last month.

Looked into getting a doctors appointment online this morning and it said nothing until 13th march!!! Spoke to nhs on the 111 number and the nurse who rung me back was absolutely lovely, but said basically my body could still be messed up after the pill and it's unlikely the doctor would see me for a bit yet.

Not sure if there is still a chance I might be pregnant or if I'm just still all over the place with my cycles. But basically I am beyond pissed right off and DH won't let me have any wine 'just in case' AngryAngryAngry

Just needed to get all that off my chest. Hope we all get our answers soon.

Hibou7688 · 22/02/2014 13:54

I think I might give them a ring on mon regardless of af arriving or not.

buddhabee · 22/02/2014 13:23

add me in too, usually 26/27 day cycles since beginning of dec.

was due on the 17th - cd31 today, have done 2 tests one on wed that was a clear blue norm and this morning a clearbleu digi - big fat NOT PREGNANT - really thought since I'd left it that it would be a bfp.

how long are you waiting before going to the doctors for bloods?

Hibou7688 · 22/02/2014 13:09

Glad to find people in same position, since I came off pill my cycle has been 28, 31, 31, 28, 36, 37 and now I'm on cd 40! Three bfns so far but I don't know if I'm late or what as I'm yet to have a regular cycle! A friend in RL has suggested going to the docs just to see why I'm so irregular.

To make matters worse, I don't even know when/if I ov. I never get a dark line on the cheapys and my one attempt at using clear blue I got 8 days flashing and ran out of sticks before I got a peak!

Fingerscrossed10 · 22/02/2014 13:00

I'm out!! AF arrived this morning!!
Just glad to get out of limbo land at the moment and feeling positive and determined for next month!
Fingers crossed for you guys xxx

babytinks89 · 22/02/2014 11:32

Bfn again this morning and now ran out of tests so i'm stopping! Af has to be here soon surely? Cd35 21dpo
Hmmmm

ThingsThatGoHumpInTheNight · 22/02/2014 10:42

I am cd36 today so 4 days late. Not testing today, might try again tomorrow. Fingers crossed some of us get bfps at least!

LittleOne76 · 22/02/2014 10:34

Hi - tested again yest at 3 days late and bfn. Still no AF..... I am going to try and wait until at least a week late before testing again.

gloopygloop · 22/02/2014 07:56

Can I join in? Although I don't know all the abbreviations my cycle is usually 28 days and I am now 4 days late. All tests have been negative, I have no symptoms apart from a funny taste in my mouth which might just be in my head because I want to be pregnant.

ThingsThatGoHumpInTheNight · 21/02/2014 23:02

God, I am fed up. I bloody hope I am pg! Feel fucking miserable to be honest. Have loads of spots coming up on my face too, just not my usual period spot Sad
