Trying to conceive baby no 2... this month sex at the right time and ovulated (according to clear blue)

Got to period due day, no period and tested using FRER. BFN. Now 5 days late, have had big heavy boobs for 5 days and very milky discharge (heavy enough that I keep thinking it's my period). Still testing negative so pretty sure I'm not pregnant but no idea where my period is.

I'm not stressed but don't understand what's happening- has anyone had similar and it turned out to be PCOD or early menopause? Or could I still be pregnant even with expensive tests saying no 5 days after period was due?

Not that she has told me but I have done hours and hours of reading of symptoms online by now and that is a very common one. Obviously it is different for everyone but yeah the pulling/pinching is commom. I also read about women actually still not getting positive home pregnancy tests even at their 12 week scan!

I don't no hunni. Every month I have have tracked ovulation with opks but November, December and January I didn't ( think I took 2-3opks the whole of January) as I didn't want to get obsessive over it like I have other months. Has your friends had any thing like pulling or pinching sensation I have been getting them on and off for a few days only lasting a few seconds at a time maybe 2-3 times a day. They don't hurt like xx

I know you won't want to be getting your hopes up but it is so hard not to. If I was you, with those symptoms I would be convinced I was pregnant and I personally think you are by the sounds of it. Yes it was a Clear Blue Digital she did this morning then has had a positive FRER this evening too. I was pregnant last year but it didn't last, bloated and constipated were my main symptoms (Oh and the night before my BFP I cried for 2 whole hours without being able to explain to my other half what the hell was wrong with me...I just wanted to cry!) Do you know when you ovulated?

sazzle3 · 02/02/2018 21:27

I'm also bloated, Can't stop peeing and constipated xx

sazzle3 · 02/02/2018 21:26

@hopehope20 nope I am never late. Was it a clear blue digital she used after the 2 weeks? I'm gonna buy one and use it on Tuesday that's when I will be 15 days late lol .Yeh one of my docs wasn't helpful she said just come back when it's 2 weeks late and we will take blood. I've just been put on antibiotics today for a kidney infection ( i never suffer with uti ever but had one with each of my other pregnacys) . Been late is driving me crazy not knowing xx

@sazzle3 don't apologise....I am only 2 days late and am going insane so can't imagine how you both feel! Yes it was the 15th day she got the positive and was testing fmu each time. She was beside herself thinking there was something wrong with her and her doctor was very unhelpful. He just told her that she must have missed a period because if the tests are saying negative then she isn't pregnant. She was going to stop testing but just did another one last time today for the hell of it. Her only symptom was feeling really bloated. If you are never late but are now 12 days late surely the odds are stacked in your favour?! I look forward to updates! The milky discharge is definitely a strong symptom

I ovulated 20 days ago so should be enough time to see hcg?! I'm convinced I can't be pregnant but worried at the thought of what it could be instead...

@hopehope20 did you say your friend was 2 weeks late was it on the 14th day she got the positive. Did she test fmu or anytime of the day. Did she have many symptoms. Sorry for all the questions lol. It's driving me crazy I have never once been late so 12 days late tomorrow for me is out of the blue for me xx

sazzle3 · 02/02/2018 21:07

@lakehouse I'm in the same positions as you but I will be 12 days late tomorrow. I'm losing the milky discharge so much i feel like my period had come but it hasn't when I check it's just the milky discharge. Done loads of tests all negative. I'm at docs on Monday (will be 2 weeks late then ) for bloods. Found out today I have a kidney infection. I'm holding hope that I will get a positive very soon or a positive blood test. My last period was 23rd December. Xx

Hopehope20 · 02/02/2018 20:56

It is really hard to think that each time you are pregnant it is the same but each time it can be so completly different. I have to say, I know loads of people get positive tests before their AF is due but actually most people I know in person have not gotten positives until they are late. My friend who I mentioned before was testing every day and using all tests (FRER, CB digital and non digital) and all were negative. It was the CB digital that finally picked it up. Do you know when you ovulated?

lakehouse · 02/02/2018 20:52

Really? That gives me hope, thank you 🙏 Last time I had a positive test straight away so this is so strange!

Yes you could be. My best friend just found out she is pregnant. She is 2 weeks late and has had negative tests for all of those 2 weeks until a positive one this morning! Your symptoms sound hopeful so I have my fingers crossed for you
