To think I'm possibly pregnant

Period was due on the 18th had nothing other then yday light spotting that lasted half a day and only when I wiped

My ovulation dates of Feb was from the 1st to the 5th I had unprotected sex on the 4th

Ive tested a few times day before missed period, and yday but all tests are saying negative (I've tried digital tests and cheap tests)

My question is google says to test 21fays after ontercourse which will be the 25th so does the missing period and negative tests mean anything should I wait till the 25th and test then? It's 3 days away but feels like a lifetime away

I've been pregnant before so I know the symptoms
I have had feeling sick, tiredness and sore boobs

Also hot and cold sweats which are doing my head in the most

One minute I'm freezing wrapped up the next I'm sweating profusely and feel so hit😫

Testing when you have missed a period is fine. If it is negative, test again in 3 days to be on the safe side.

I would wait then test again if you've had symptoms and a missed period. Do you get symptoms before or on your period to differentiate between?

Light spotting on the day my period was due then nothing was likely implantation bleeding for me. I didn't test until a week after the missed period though but it was a strong positive at that point. I don't remember having symptoms other than tiredness then a bit nauseous when I found out (but that could have been nerves) in the first couple of weeks, but guess it's different for everybody!

There was a clearblue 2 pack which had a digital and one that showed a cross if pregnant, you can do the cross one first then use digital to extra check a bit later perhaps incase it takes a bit longer to show for you?

I hope you are feeling okay regardless other than the symptoms!

Give it a few days and then test again. It isn't clear whether or not you want to be pregnant, but I'm guessing from your awareness of your ovulation cycles that you'd like to be. Your temp etc. could be due to you being unwell, particularly given the time of year. If you are TTC, I appreciate how hard it can be - I only fell pregnant with my second when I stopped stressing and stopped tracking everything. Best of luck OP - hope you get the outcome you're hoping for.

I was due on 21st so today is 3 days late. I tested yesterday and day before and they were all negative. This morning I tested again and BOOM big fat positive! It's very faint but appears on three separate tests. So you may just need to wait another day or two. Best of luck! 🤞🏻
