Is anyone else testing this week?

Hang onto those young looks! Won't be long before you pray someone says your 1 year younger than you are

Sounds like u need to swap doctors and go again. Should be easy if your dh is already there.

Yep! I'm 2 weeks late as of tomorrow!! I felt like the doctor judged me from the moment I stepped in the room. I'm only 25, but look younger as I don't wear make up and I scrape my hair back. Cos I'm lazy 😂 I have 2 kids, my eldest I was 18 when I fell on with her and honestly, I felt like that irresponsible 18 year old again today. The way she looked at me, I felt embarrassed and ashamed to have even gone. Xx

Didn't realise you were 2wks late as well! Surely that's a big symptom to consider! Let's pray for bfp on Monday.

Congratulations notyetthere!!!

And congratulations!! Xx

I am going to go into town next week, on Wednesday as my youngest is back at nursery and grab a first response! I'll join you on Monday for a test Jibberoo. I've just been to my local b&m and they had some cheap red dye tests so I got some. Not sure how good they are but I'm 2 weeks late so surely if I am, it'll show up on Monday? My docs are rubbish anyway, I'm thinking of moving to the one my hubby is at as they are much better. It's very frustrating not knowing, like you say, I know something is different but it's not showing on tests. Who knows, it might all be in my head! Thanks for the support xxx

Meg - how about you give it another couple of days and use a different test like a first response? I used a first response yesterday at 11dpo and I got a bfp. They are well rated here mumsnet

Also forgot to add I know how frustrating It is when you know your body feels different but don't have proof/knowledge as to why!

Meg hoe infuriating! To be honest while I value the work of health care professionals sadly I have to say I can't remember any real support in any of my dealings with Nhs. When I was pg with 1st it literally felt like I was getting my car serviced every time I saw midwife (don't even get me started on support during labour!).

Unfortunately all you can do is wait a bit longer. I'm waiting to retest on Monday - want to join?

She was useless! No blood test, she did one of their tests and within 30 seconds she said 'meant to give it 3 minutes but I'd say that's negative' and threw it away. I've already been to the loo 3 times this morning. She told me I'd probably had an early miscarriage and when I said but I've had no bleeding she shrugged her shoulders and tutted! Waste of time xx

I think when your TTC, every little thing somehow related to a pregnancy symptom. It's so hard to know if it's genuine or not. There's still hope until AF arrives for you! Xx

Less crampy and I think breasts less sensitive. Feel a bit sick but haven't eaten yet so probably just hunger

Am now (almost) convinced it was a false start and what I took to be symptoms was just af on the way (though she's not here yet!)

Keeping fingers crossed for you at docs

How are you this morning? I'll update after the docs! Xx

Nothing to be embarrassed about - you have 2 confusing results so want clarity. And let's face it we are not on here because we hope for negatives. Hope is what keeps us going each month.
Am starting to get really strong cramps now so pretty sure flo will be making an appearance soon.

There's a few of the lingo words that i can't work out! So sorry you didn't get the result you wanted, hopefully next week you'll get a positive! I'm going to feel embarrassed if it's a negative at the docs. Xx

Well ladies should have read your thread earlier took the test as soon as I got home and it's a big fat negative. As I said I'm not going to take any more unless flo (thanks for the lingo decoding ) doesn't arrive next week.

I agree a positive is a positive especially if you have more than 1. Hopefully it's more likely that the negative ones are wrong!

I would have genuinely believed them, which I did. But I came online, for some reason and saw that clearblue are well known for false positives! I have taken 4, from 2 different packets. I'm finding it hard to believe them for that reason and we've only been TTC for 2 months. I have 2 daughters already, both November babies so we were hoping to avoid another November baby. Ahh! Thanks, been trying to work it out for ages xx

What makes you doubt the positive tests? Hopefully a blood test will confirm it all! There's all sorts of stuff around about different tests picking up on differing levels of the pregnancy hormone but the doctor I spoke to said a positive result is a positive result.

AF means Aunt Flo, which means period! Hope she stays away for all of us.

Hey! I've had 4 positive clearblue tests, 1 negative tesco and a negative clearblue digital this morning. What does AF mean? Jibberoo, I agree, try and hold out until morning for your FMU! Xx

Jibberoo, could you tell yourself you'll buy a test tonight but wait until the morning to use it? Best chat with first wee of the day!

Hi Meg, people seem to agree you can't get a false positive, have you done more than one that's been bfp? Good luck at the docs and let us know how you get on!

Be nice to get some good news on here

Good luck for tomorrow Meg! Don't know why I'm stressing, if it is positive then I'll just start stressing about everything else!

Good luck!! Let us know how you get on! I'm at the docs in the morning to try and get a blood test xxx

I usually don't have much symptoms before period (granting on day I come on) but I've had sore nipples, cramping for 2 days and nausea for 2 days - never get nausea! While the other 2 are easily period related it's been 2 days and nothing which is unusual. I'm rubbish at tracking so can't tell you exactly when I'm due on but think my cycle is more 25 days so should be any day now.
I'm going crazy at work and can't concentrate so am buying another test now to try tonight and have promised myself that if its negative I'm going to forget about this for at least another week! Off to boots I go!

Hey! Ive been trying for weeks! I'm currently almost 2 weeks late & only got positives on clearblue 😞 xx

What symptoms are you having? We may as well distract each other while we drive ourselves mad waiting!

I've had no af symptoms and they usually go on for a week before I come on. Boobs are tiny but nipples are crazy sensitive (they usually double in size before af). I was asleep for hours on the sofa last night beyond exhausted then up hours wanting to be sick. I'm craving carbs and have had my first sandwich for months. Also an entire bag of toffee popcorn when I usually hate anything too sugary.

I can smell everything! Not helping the nausea. I'm having mad hot flushes, I'm usually cold.
