Symptoms actually a bad sign?

Am I the only one who feels out this month because they HAVE some mild symptoms. Sore boobs and lower abdomen cramps. Due AF on sat and thinking more likely to be her rearing her ugly head. With my DD and subsequent failed pregs I never had any symptoms till at least 6weeks...

Ragh sorry, just moping Blush

@sardi28 ahh no... Sorry for the disappointment it's always deflating isn't it. For every BFN I've got I've treated myself to a large gin, as let's be real...alcohol is the true silver lining of not being preg!

Ah @thunderandsunshine01 AF arrived yesterday, bang on cue. Cycle is dead on 28 every month though, so I'm taking that as a positive that I don't have long to wait till next time 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️☹️
Or she'll be a day late and I'll be even more disappointed next month 🙈🙈 it's a rollercoaster ride this TTC 🙄

@Sardi28 ahh a newbie again. TTC for over a year here, you’ll learn to take pics each time.... saves the walk of shame back to the bin just to ‘double check’ 🙈😂 (I may have learnt this from experience)

Congratulations!! I'm soooo hoping I'm in the same boat as you AF due tomorrow and I thought there was a hint of a line yesterday, but BFN on a FRER today 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️😭

I’ve moved onto another brand today Grin might have to take out a loan for all these tests...
Clearblue is a BFP. Think I’m just remembering testing with my DD the line was so strong day AF was due so might be fair to say I’m paranoid Grin

Congratulations! That's a real BFP. The darkness of the line can vary depending on lots of things, like how much you had to drink before the test, whether it was fmu etc. I was worried last week because I got a bfp followed by really faint lines on some cheap supermarket tests. I've now done about 8 tests and bfp line is still there and darker than the ones last week. HCG doubles roughly every 48-72 hours so you could test again in 2 or 3 days if you still want reassurance

Mrsmummy90 · 10/09/2019 15:48

I didn't get a bfp with dd2 until af was 2 weeks late. Hormones are just weird like that. A few more days and you should have a blazing bfp xx

@Mrsmummy90 thank you. I used the remaining cheapie in the 2 pack this morn and BFP. No idea what to think really. You’d think at 3 days late I’d be getting a stronger line right?
(Darker line is today)

Sorry to hear that. Give it a few more days and try with a frer. Keeping my fingers crossed for you xx

Well just taken another Asda one ( with the purple caps, same as the one that was bfn) and BFN! 2 days late now so would have thought I’d have a line even on the cheaper tests. Looks like might be a chemical 😔

@Mrsmummy90 thank you. Just have them horrible shooting pains ‘down there’ so not filling me with hope. Also had previous ectopic so only 1 tube, 2 MC at 5 weeks since then, makes me paranoid any pregnancy now isn’t going to ‘stick’ in the right place. Let’s hope this is the one!! Going to take a test again tomorrow to see if the line is getting any darker as that’s usually a giveaway for me, hopefully it is as AF should have been due yesterday 🤞

Mrsmummy90 · 08/09/2019 13:12

That last test is definitely positive. I had really bad cramps with both dc's and assumed af was on her way. Keeping my fingers crossed for you xx
