Period due today, still testing negative..

Hi everyone, I'm new here but just thought I'd post a quick message for some advice really! (I've never been pregnant or never actively tried to conceive either) but me and my OH had unprotected you know what on 24th Sep (according to my app it was 1 day after my ovulation cycle, but still medium change of getting pregnant) The first week went by and no symptoms, but this week I've had on and off dull cramping, headaches, feeling nauseous on occasion but not actually being sick, being tired or struggling to sleep at all! I just needed to write this as I feel like I'm going mad and I'm eventually going to stress myself out lol. I've done a couple of tests but all negative, I'm due on my AF today but nothing has come so far so I did a test earlier and was negative also! Has anyone been through this? or can shed some light? Maybe my AF will eventually turn up late, but I just have a strange gut feeling something is happening😆Thanks in advance x

Would like to also jump on this thread.

Symptoms of nausea, diarrhoea, strong sense of smell which is making me feel a bit sick with certain things, going of foods I like etc...

AF due 3 days ago but Flo app changed this morning to say 1 day late so not sure what's going on there!

2 tests which I could have sworn had a VVFL but also an array of what appear to be negatives (bar perhaps line eye here and there!).

Feeling utterly frustrated and just want to know.

Really hope you get the answer you want OP 🤞

2 days late now, tested again this morning but looks like a BFN. Still having period/pregnancy symptoms, struggling to fall asleep, dull cramping in lower back, bloating!😅

Af arrived for me this morning.

@carsty I’ve been also having mild period like cramps and lower back pain for a couple of days that I thought I’m gonna be early.

Hi all im also 2 days late but been cramping over a week now just wish af will just show already and stop teasing me😏

Thought id jump on this too, im 5 days past my expected period but negative test, i have a really short cycle so not sure if this affects anything?

@Sez281 Still no sign of AF this evening either, will definitely take another FR test tomorrow morning 😆And honestly I would feel so happy! as I've never even been pregnant before, not sure about my OH as he still feels we're not ready. But everything is different once you know the result 100% isn't it, so he would probably be over the moon I think lol x

@BuffyMac sorry I forgot to ask, I know you're not actively ttc but how would you feel if you did get a positive test?

Sez281 · 06/10/2023 18:54

Might jump on here as I'm in the same boat. AF is 2 days late according to my app but I've a very short LP so only i'm only 11DPO, all tests negative (apart from a few indents at 8dpo) so just waiting now 🙈

emmatcc1 · 06/10/2023 18:07

I’m in the same boat. Period was due today and didn’t show up and tests are negative. I’m never late and I definitely didn’t mix up my ovulation dates. Also I have lots of symptoms but then again af symptoms are identical.

I didn't test positive in any of my pregnancies until a day or so after my period was due. Best of luck, OP
