After years of heartbreaking infertility with no known cause and multiple rounds of failed IVF. My period is 6 days late, I have dull cramp but nothing like it normally is. AIBU to wish/hope/pray that amongst this chaos DH and I finally get our happy ending. I have one test left in the house, part of me wants to put myself out of my misery but I know if it's negative I'll completely fall apart and I can't afford that as have a huge week at work. AIBU to think it's finally my turn?

Whenever you test I hope you get your result 🤞

AlwaysDancing1234 · 06/05/2020 06:24

I’m keeping everything crossed for you, as useless as that sounds!
I understand that feeling of desperate anticipation and I hope that this is your time Flowers

I really hope this is it, fingers crossed for you. I have 2 IVF babies due to male and female infertility and a surprise 3rd. The unexpected really can happen.

HowFurloughCanYouGo · 06/05/2020 06:24

Best of luck OP.

I would test but that's because I'm an impatient bastard Grin

NeverGuessWho · 06/05/2020 06:25

Another one here with everything crossed, OP.

Though the temptation to test must be massive, given the week ahead, I think it makes sense to wait till Saturday.

justanotherneighinparadise · 06/05/2020 06:26

Ah OP. Been there. Everything crossed xx

surlycurly · 06/05/2020 06:27

Ah I never comment on these threads either but I'm hoping for the best for you.

Hippywannabe · 06/05/2020 06:27

Oh, I read this and have everything crossed. I would have to test but understand why you are waiting. Sending prayers x

StewPots · 06/05/2020 06:29

Fingers crossed for you OP 💐

QueenofmyPrinces · 06/05/2020 06:29

Wishing you the best of luck Star

Pinot4me · 06/05/2020 06:36

Wishing you the best of luck... everything crossed for you. I’d be too impatient not to take the test...

Cantdecidewhich · 06/05/2020 06:36

Go and do the test and good luck!

Isobored · 06/05/2020 06:38

So it's my mid afternoon. Would the test be less accurate now than tomorrow morning? Trying to mitigate potential disappointment......

Fingers crossed for you.

Napssavelives · 06/05/2020 06:40

I think given you are 6 days late it would be fine to test at anytime

dontdisturbmenow · 06/05/2020 06:48

I've been OP and I'd advised to test now. The reality is that there will be one day when your period will be later than it has ever been. This could be the time. The longer you leave it, the most devastating you'll be.

At the same time, the first sign I had with my first pregnancies was the cramps with no period coming. If you are finally pregnant, which a very good possibility, you might as well find out sooner rather than later.

Crossing all my fingers that you'll get a big fat positive Flowers

Inthepurplerain · 06/05/2020 06:51

Op- put yourself out of your misery. The stress isn’t good for you, if you were pregnant you’ll be frustrated with yourself for allowing yourself to be so anxious for so long.

Good luck! x

CurlyEndive · 06/05/2020 06:53

Good luck OP!

ScarfLadysBag · 06/05/2020 06:58

As long as you hold your urine for a decent period of time, then it'll be fine. Morning urine is just because it's concentrated, but you can get the same result by just holding for a few hours. So if you haven't peed for a little while, have at it!

Elephantonascooter · 06/05/2020 07:01

Good luck op, everything crossed for you x

Dmacka75 · 06/05/2020 07:03

Good Luck x

ittooshallpass · 06/05/2020 07:03

Sending love to you - I hope so much it's your turn.

pairofchairs · 06/05/2020 07:04

Good luck op Thanks

BrutusMcDogface · 06/05/2020 07:04

Oh good luck, really hoping this is your time 🤞🤞🤞

Oysterbabe · 06/05/2020 07:07

A test should give you an accurate result at any time at 6 days late. 🤞🤞🤞
