Im due in six days. Took a test today bfn. Not sure if would get a bfp by now?

Breast ache sometimes.

Hazelbrowneyes · 23/01/2014 15:25

I'd have thought 6 days would still be too early to get a bfp?

I'm going to hold off until after AF due date.

Both DH and a friend have asked me if I'm pregnant due to symptoms. I'm bloated, lots of continuous cramping, so tired today & irritable. I keep pointing out these are exactly the same symptoms I get before AF Grin

This is only month one so I'm trying to stay chilled out. it's not easy though

shelterbelter · 23/01/2014 15:45

It's so confusing that pregnant symptoms are the same as AF approaching.

I don't normally get boob aches and pains but I have been really aware of them these last few days so really hoping it means something good.

Sorry for those who AF has arrived for - its such a disappointment. You sort of try not to build yourself up but try and remain hopeful at the same time, but it is such a blow when she shows up.

I really don't know what to think - I am so annoyed with myself this month as I have wasted a lot of money on FRER tests and continued to POAS know full we'll it is far too flipping early but I can't help myself!! [embarrassed]. WTF! I have symptoms which I had last month when I had convinced myself I was preggo only for AF to show up 4 days early. I have had campy AF tummy pains on and off and sore boobies since doing the deed on the 13th of this month - only time we were able to do it when it mattered as hubby was working away rest of time so chanes are so slim it is ridiculous. Also can't stop peeing last 2 days. Why do we torture ourselves! Confused. I have now resolved to hold off until Sunday with the POAS unless AF puts in an unwelcome early appearance! Good luck ladies!!! x

Sorry to hear AF has arrived mrsmac.

The fastest route to madness is doing lots of poas early! if you feel tempted to then come onto this thread and we can all talk each other out of it until we are actually due or late! Hang in there folks, I'm holding out until Saturday unless AF appears and rocking in a corner until then

Princesscrystalx · 23/01/2014 18:13

Hello ! Sorry to hear the witch got some of you :( baby dust to you all next month!! Xx

I ovulated day 14 when i usually ovulate day 19, so guessing due on mondayish? No symptoms apart from wanting chicken wings and now starting to feel sicky. Took a predictor test and there is a barely visible line, you really have to squint n turn your head lol!! Googled this test and awful reviews so bit gutted. Whos still testing?.xxxxx

LightsPlease · 23/01/2014 19:48

Hazel im not sure if six days is too early.its only an internet cheapy!
When is af due for you?

Symptom spot will turn you crazy. I don't know if its real or imaginary!

Lovecuppy · 23/01/2014 20:40

Hello. Sorry to those that AF has appeared for. Wishing you all luck for next month.

I'm currently 7 DPO and driving myself mad..... It's all I can think about at the moment.... Wish I could turn my very over active mind off for a bit!!! Not feeling too positive as have had cramping from 2 DPO off and is slowly getting stronger so feel that AF will be on her way soon.

If AF amazingly doesn't appear early or on time I am planning to wait until I am one day late.... 29th before testing but don't think I'll get that far anyway.

Would just like to know either way now!! Xx

Hazelbrowneyes · 24/01/2014 08:50

AF due on 31st Jan/1st Feb going on last months cycle length, however I'm fairly sure I ov'd 4 days earlier than last month (going on the cramps I experienced!) which would make me due around the 28th. So if I ov'd when I think I did, I'm 10dpo today.

I've had 3 days of cramps really low down, nausea that comes and goes and today I've got sore boobs, a headache and feel like I've been run over by a bus. This could be one of three things:

  1. I'm coming down with a cold
  2. AF is going to arrive early
  3. Err, pregnant.
Grin

Not testing until 2nd Feb at earliest.

LightsPlease · 24/01/2014 16:27

Its looking hopeful for you !

mattsmama · 25/01/2014 11:57

Aargh - the poas addiction continues!! Last night Thought I saw a practically invisible line but only when I tilt the FRER a certain way but can't be sure. This morning I am sure I can see an almost shadow like line on 2 IC's - god I don't know if I am getting pink line eye or something now or imagining the lines!!! However I remember with my last pregnancy it was the IC that showed up a slight shadow even before the FRER but I daren't get even a glimmer of hope up yet (very hard not to though!). Not due till 28th !!

Glad I can at least come on here and share my lunacy - good luck to everyone else and hang in there! X

Foxsticks · 25/01/2014 12:09

While we are confessing, I POAS yesterday - BFN. I think my symptoms were related to 5:2 rather than pregnancy. Still on the bright side I lost 1.5lbs this week.

Not over till AF arrives but I don't think it's my month this month. Fingers crossed for everyone.

LightsPlease · 25/01/2014 12:46

Still waiting I have four days til af is due. Th mild symptoms I had like breasts a bit achey is GONE during the day and occasionally at night. Not looking to hopeful.

nicx240187 · 25/01/2014 12:49

Well this morning I accidentally did a poas hpt. In my drawer I have opk and hpt. I did the wrong one lol.
I now know I'm currently getting a neg result.
Before anyone asks. I do opk all month as I have issues with my line coming and faidibg through the month. And the docs asked me to monitor it.

So I shall keep up the 2ww. Redone the maths and if AF is coming that should be the 30 th

Cakebaker35 · 25/01/2014 13:04

Well I poas today, managed to hold out, and got a very faint line....I just don't know though, I'm cd29 so certainly possible but it was v faint and I hear all these stories about evaporation lines so really unsure. So I'm going to buy a non-cheapy test tomorrow and see what that says....hmmmm fingers crossed, if it is just an evaporation line then it'll be even more gutting than getting a bfn somehow.

Foxsticks · 25/01/2014 13:13

Looks like there has been lots of illicit peeing! I don't feel as bad now. Looking positive cakebaker. I really hope you get a bfp.

Lovecuppy · 25/01/2014 13:27

Congratulations to the ladies with faint lines :-) I wanna test!!! But only 9 DPO so hanging on. Also looked in my diary and last cycle AF arrived early at 10 DPO (which is tomorrow) so am massively on knicker watch!!

Good luck everyone it's nearly the end of the Month :-)

FeckinNC · 25/01/2014 16:16

Another naughty early POASer here Blush 4 days before AF due and BFN. Also been v grouchy today so suspect this isn't our month, again Sad. Congrats to those with lines, faint lines, imaginary lines and good luck to those who have held off testing and those waiting patiently Smile

nicx240187 · 25/01/2014 17:03

I'm sure it all in head but I feel so sick. And I have heartburn which I never have. And I have mild stabby pains on one side. How early really do symptoms arrive?

Foxsticks · 25/01/2014 17:22

When I was pregnant I didn't notice any symptoms other than being bone achingly tired and thirsty. I only had these for three or four days before AF was due I think.

Seb101 · 25/01/2014 18:35

I'm out this month; af arrived today!
:(( good luck to everyone still waiting! Now I'm going to have a bath, early night and feel sorry for myself.

Foxsticks · 25/01/2014 19:06

Sorry to hear you're out Seb, hope luck is on your side next month Thanks

Cakebaker35 · 26/01/2014 13:25

BFP! still a very faint line, but it's a line and that's the 3rd test....v v early days though so I'm just keeping everything crossed. Sorry to all those whose AF has arrived and hang in there to all those still waiting x

Lovecuppy · 26/01/2014 15:42

Yayyyyy cakebaker...... Fingers crossed for you!!!

I'm holding on for as long as I can before going to the loo in fear of AF arriving..... Really feel like it's coming :-/

Sorry seb :-( wishing you lots of luck for feb.

I'm starting to go a mad now, please stay away AF xx

Foxsticks · 26/01/2014 17:52

That's fantastic cakebaker!!

I just read your update and couldn't resist another POAS and...... I got a BFP! I'm shaking! So excited but really scared after my miscarriage too. I just hope everything is going to be ok with this one.
