Hi everyone! Only my 2nd post so apologies if this is the wrong place to put it. I don't have any pregnant friends/family so I find this process quite stressful and lonely. (My partners is great but doesn't really like to talk about it) Been TTC for 3 months officially but came off the pill 10 months ago. Cycle has always been 29 days long and I am addicted to POAS!

This month I really thought would be my month (symptom spotting) and I am currently on day 34 with no sign of AF. Have taken about 10 tests but all negative. I'm always reading all your helpful comments but don't know what I'm supposed to do..... Do I wait and hope...keep taking tests...ignore it and act like I've started a new cycle and treat this as a blip or get myself off to her docs? Is it even possible that I still could be preggers??

My friends 30th is this Saturday and I don't want to drink if there's any chance plus I'm suppose to be on a flight with work in a couple of weeks and again don't really want to fly if I could be.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks xx

Hi MSMB, are you certain that you ov'd when you normally do? If you ov'd a little later this month then you can expect AF a little later then normal.

I would def not ignore it and move on. You can't start a new cycle until AF makes an appearance. I would leave it a couple of days, test again and if still BFN then maybe ask for a blood test at the docs.

Even if you are pg there should be no issues with flying at this early stage at all and even a small drink wouldn't do a great deal of harm.

As you have only been trying for 3 months the docs aren't likely to do much, especially as you are regular. It can take a normal healthy couple 12 months to conceive. Just got to time it right :)

Fingers crossed for you :)

Have you got time to pop to the doctors tomorrow - they could refer you on for a blood test. In my last pregnancy, it took over 6 weeks to get a positive test. Also, which tests did you use - I used ClearBlue which gave me my first positive when a previous cheapie test came back negative. Either way, good luck x

Thanks for the advise girls! I asked the pharmacist today what's she thought and she suggested waiting a week and testing again and if still nothin maybe having a blood test at the docs. Fingers and toes crossed but thanks for the advice it really helps xxx
