I’ve never conceived before but me and my partner are trying im usually bang on time but for some reason this month i’m late and i’ve had abdominal cramps and back pain but i don’t usually get pain until my periods here i’ve also been feeling really sick I don’t know if i’m just over thinking or if i should just go with what the test says

Yes, you could be.

Washyourhandsyoufilthyanimal · 29/04/2020 19:21

Unlikely if you’re two days late and the test was negative. Could be anything making your periods late. Cramps and back pain sounds like period, I’ve never had cramps and back pain in early pregnancy.

bridgetreilly · 29/04/2020 19:21

I mean, you probably aren't, but you could be. If you still haven't had a period in another week, take another test.

Lostvoiced · 29/04/2020 19:23

Did you do the test first thing in the morning?

You could still be pregnant or you could just be late. Do another test tomorrow morning if your period doesn't show up.

If your period is late and your pregnancy test is negative it means you ovulated late. That means you either ovulated late and are not pregnant, in which case you will get your period later than usual, or you ovulated late and are pregnant, in which case you will eventually get a positive test.

Cramps and back pain sounds like period, I’ve never had cramps and back pain in early pregnancy.

I had cramps in early pregnancy, a lot of people do.

OP, no one can say for sure. Do you actually know when you ovulated, and how long your luteal phase usually is? That is the only way to know if you are actually late, rather than your body just throwing you a curve ball with a really long cycle. Sometimes ovulation is delayed for some reason, which will then delay your period.

Wait a couple of days and test again if still no period.

peperethecat · 29/04/2020 19:27

Your symptoms don't mean anything either way. If you're pregnant enough for pregnancy symptoms you're pregnant enough to test positive. The symptoms you're experiencing will be from the progesterone.

If you haven’t had your period ofc you could be pregnant!

ameliak786 · 29/04/2020 19:32

i didn’t take it first thing i took it mid day it’s just so strange something that i’m not used to you see as every time i get my period i have my pain on the day and i go to the bathroom and i’m bleeding this time they are very mild but have been happening for a few days now i don’t know if it’s just all in my head it’s just the feeling sick that’s completely throwing me off like the smell of smoke especially i have to make my partner wash after he smoked but could just be in my head

What test did you use?

TestingTestingWonTooFree · 29/04/2020 19:44

Good luck! If you’re TTC now would be a good time for him to stop smoking. I wouldn’t want a baby in the current climate, but none of my business

Who knows? We’re not doctors.

What a time to actively try to get pregnant Hmm

AldiAisleOfCrap · 29/04/2020 19:48

What a time to actively try to get pregnant
How rude!

AldiAisleOfCrap · 29/04/2020 19:49

Op I would order a FRER from amazon.

ameliak786 · 29/04/2020 19:50

@ABetterOblivion Not that it’s any of your concern please keep that kind of opinion to yourself as you have no idea my personal circumstances

ameliak786 · 29/04/2020 19:50

@AldiAisleOfCrap Ok thank you i will do that

Lazypuppy · 29/04/2020 19:52

You need to use the first wee of the day and a better test.

I used the clearblue one that says how many weeks so i didn't have to worry about lines

DontTouchTheMoustache · 29/04/2020 19:52

Hard to say OP as it's still very early so chances are even if you took one first thing and were pregnant it would only be a very faint line. You will be best ordering a good test and waiting a few days, then test as soon as you wake up

Lalapurple · 29/04/2020 19:55

If you don't get your period in the meantime do a test again- it's probably best to wait a couple of days but I would probably do it tomorrow.

ameliak786 · 29/04/2020 19:56

I was thinking maybe waiting till the end of next week see if anything changes or if i’m still the same and then doing a test

enoughofthebullshit · 29/04/2020 19:57

I've literally just been through this (had a thread in conception about it) my AF arrived yesterday... 4 days late. Don't know why, usually like clockwork. My body was just being a dickhead 🤷🏻‍♀️

ameliak786 · 29/04/2020 20:00

@enoughofthebullshit trying to figure out your body is so annoying honestly i think i’m just going to leave it till next week and take it from there i think i’m over thinking too much
