Hi

I have been trying for over a year and have had my first consultation with the fertility clinic last week. AF was due Thursday and hasn’t showed up and I haven’t had my usual pre af spotting. I am terrified to test I don’t know why I think I don’t want to be disappointed. Has anyone else felt like this. I was think of waiting until I’m a week late would this cause any harm if it were to be a bfp how quickly should you get in touch with your doctor if I were to be pregnant what is the first steps?

Oh there is quite a few threads where people are late and getting bfn. Do you think it’s possible to have regular cycles then just get one that goes out of sync. Every time I go to the toilet I expect to see I’ve started that’s how it feels.

I personally would test but only because I hate waiting. Good luck for Thursday xx

grandmasterstitch · 19/10/2020 14:26

I was the same OP. 18 months and I didn't test unless I was late. The disappointment was too much otherwise. I would test if I was you at this point but I understand why you don't want to. As long as you don't have a negative you could be pregnant but getting the negative takes all the hope away. I really really hope this is it for you!

Yes that is what scares me!
Oooo good to hear that was your symptoms too. I’m never late and usually like clockwork but anything could through them out I suppose. Oh 5/6 days late and bfn eeek this is what’s stopping me I think I’m enjoying living in hope but that’s not very grown up of me lol I’ll test Thursday at 1 week late and I will update because I’ve been reading these types of post for months and you never find out the outcome :)

Unfortunately @effieceff sometimes they are just late! I think that's why the OP is so nervous to test - she doesnt want to find it's just a wacky cycle and be disappointed

effieceff · 19/10/2020 11:59

I’m about 5/6 days late (different apps saying different things) so far 4 negatives...? any ideas!!

HotPatootiebootie · 19/10/2020 11:55

Itchy and sore nipples were mine and my sisters first sign of pregnancy every time. And between us that was six pregnancies! For us it's more reliable sign of a positive than a test!

Haggled · 19/10/2020 11:41

Take a test (and please update us!) Flowers

Congratulations!! And thanks for the advice. My nipples are sore and itchy. It’s very strange for the last 13 months or so every month I’ve managed to convince myself I had symptoms but this month I don’t feel like I’ve had any other than what I have mentioned and as I said these are normal to me but not having the spotting is very strange and that’s what made me think when the nurse said on Wednesday phone tomorrow when your period arrives to book in for bloods I was like ooo I’ve not had spotting. I think because I knew I had that appointment I haven’t been as eagle eyed.

Also cramping and sore boobs are also normal for the first trimester- I'm 8 weeks and 5-7 weeks my symptoms were cramping, sore (esp nips) big boobs and burpiness
