Morning everyone,

Trying for a baby for a year. Normal cycle 27-30 days now day 41, negative "not pregnant" result from a clear blue digital pregnancy test this morning.
Ugh...
Test again (could it be too early) or except it's a longer cycle? Longest I've had since I've tracked in 3 years.
Cramps for a week.
I'm 36 years old if that helps lol..

Thanks in advance x

I might also test in a few days, although I was so close to just giving up and deciding to test on the 28th if I still didn't come on by then, but seeing your post has made me realise im not the only one here with a late cycle, it says I am 6 days late so I would have thought I'd have that positive by now. Have you had any other symptoms? I agree, it hard waiting for something when you're not sure what it is.

@Sunnybeam

Also im so sorry for taking your post, I just don't know how to make a new one.
No need to be sorry, It's all so frustrating. I'm going to test again in a few days. I've had 3 negatives and also the backache that I don't get with PMS. I'm thinking maybe I didn't ovulate at all. It's so annoying not knowing. Keep me posted.

Hi, im new here so trying my best to not confuse but I am going through the exact same thing. My cycle is normally 35-37 so anything past that im normally pregnant, before my DC1 i used to have very irregular periods where I would miss one month and have one the next. Since then I have never missed a period, so on the 5th of October I had my merina coil taken out which I only had in for around a year so I'd have thought it wouldn't have messed my cycle up too much after having it out. Then AF showed on the 9th for 7 days and I havent had a period since, I did have mild cramping on and off for 1 day around the 11th of November and severe back ache since then for a few days and the last 2 nights with the back ache they almost felt like the pain you would have during labour. I literally have no pain now, my boobs have been tingly and they are rock hard at the top which is never a symptom i have before AF only when pregnant. I am feeling more tired and having naps during the day which I never usually do, going for a wee more often and my CM has only just started to increase, im now on day 41 I think and have had 3 negative tests, I really need help or im going to have some mental break down Sad

[quote Kay00]@missnessa84 hi! Do you know when you ovulated? I had a very long cycle last time, it was a full 49 days long with Ov on day 35! If you ovulated late then its possible you are in your two week wait, good lcuk to you![/quote]
I'm not entirely sure, I went with my past few months around day 12,13,14,15 but haven't tracked fully.
