I normally have a period between days 32 and 38 and am currently on day 35. Since day 32 I have had increasing menstrual cramping like pains which were awful yesterday and overnight needing lots of paraceptmol. I stil have not had any bleeding yet though. Tired, nipples itchy and slightly sore and have a heavy bloated feeling (kinda period like).

Normally I have cramps and then a fews hours to a day later I get af but nothing. Anyone find out they were pregnant after this???

Not noticed the need to wee much cos I am drinking a lot so need to wee from that but am very thirsty. Boobs are bigger defo though and still no sign of period. Just keep feeling a bit wet down now and rushing to toilet to find watery lotion type discharge and getting occasional cramping which make me feel a bit sick and sweaty. Got one last preg strip fro tommorrow morn and then gonna leave it until I have well and truly missed my period. Mind you by then I will prob know one way or another.

If I am really honest right now from the way my boobs are feeling and looking I could put money on me being pregnant....I hope I wont fall flat on my face from saying that!! LOL!!

Good luck - I think it is entirely possible that you are, I have had the weeing tons thing, like a bloody racehorse! I do seem to remember that I constantly felt my period was going to arrive but it never did with DD.

Hi missmakestuff. Sorry didnt see your post last time I posted. Really hoping you get your BFPs hunny. Its bloody horrid all this waiting around. I am still getting BFNs but just feel very pregnant now. My boobs are like giant sponges lol!!! What are your thoughts on an xmas baby. I am quite excited at the thought now. I would prefer him/her to arrive outside of xmas day but I think december is a lovely time for a baby to arrive. Magical!!

Sorry this is me just back on, can't believe there's still no sign, I feel like I'm almost positive you are too. I'll go to sleep with all my fingers and limbs crossed for you!

I'm quite excited for a Xmas baby now too, it'll be nice to dress it up like a wee reindeer (they're gonna love me, ha ha!)

My sister has ordered me a wee journal called from bump to birthday as my first present, she's wildly excited! I can't wait to get it so I can start sticking things in it, I've kept all my appointment cards and stuff for the midwife.

Think im going to get an earlyish night as I've had a little wobble tonight, think it's just cos I'm knackered, I just feel really scared something bad is going to happen, I'm actually driving myself crazy!

Report back in the morning! I really really hope you get your BFP!! X

oh bugger Lizson! Sorry it didn't happen for you either this month.

I've prepared the hubby that he'll be getting no peace as soon as my period is over! I had a random missed call the day I did my neg test and the next day it turned out to be for a study that Clearblue are doing on one of their feritility monitors. I think I filled out something on their website months ago. Anyway had a lovely chat with the lady when they called back and they've sent me some paperwork out and once they get a consent form back from me, they'll send me the kit for one cycle. Can't do any harm and will save me buying one!

Sorry it didn't happen this time Lizson - if you want a pack of cheapie OPKs for nowt, let me have your address - might be counting my chickens before they hatch but got BFP last night! Now sat here with a hot water bottle as I have had stretching cramping all day and I am shattered...still feeling sick, pinched a mint from someones desk today and had to just smell it for ages as eating it would make me feel sick...sure they thought I was mad! Excited but trying not to get ahead of myself as early days yet - due Jan 3rd if all goes well! Good luck to you all - it took us nearly a year last time but this time only three months and the first one with OPKs.

I know this is a year later but I'm now in the same boat. I usually get my period on Day 25 or 26. I believe I ovulated on day 18. Had what I think was implantation bleed on day 28. I'm now on day 32 and haven't gotten my period. I am crampy today and feel like period could start at any moment so keeping going to the bathroom. Slept all afternoon and didn't feel very good. Have had a headache for the last 3 days. Have been sniffly. Very tired the last couple weeks. Every test has been negative so far so I think I'll wait a couple days.
Did you end up being pregnant?
