Hi ladies,

I am in my second cycle ttc, my first cycle was 28 days on the dot, which is what it was like before BC, i am currently 3 days late but having cramps on an off for past week or so. I have a high cervix and watery cm, sorry if too much info.

Apart from that I have my had any other symptoms, not done a test yet as only bought one tonight. Anyone experience this and been pregnant?

I used a morrisons own this morning and still negative. If af doesn't arrive this evening it will be my longest cycle ever. Have now been getting cramps for 10 days straight...

Sam - recognise you from t'other thread. This must be a nerve wracking time. Are you positive about when ovulation happened? If so, this could be interesting. If af doesn't show up can you push GP for a blood test? Congratulations and good luck to the other ladies.

Hey Emily. Just seen this thread. Wanted to say congratulations! x

Hi girls, I did a cheapy tesco test this afternoon and got a strong positive even though at the drs on Monday I had a definite negative. Shows what a difference a couple days make. Sending lots of baby dust your way girls xxxxx WinkGrin

Sar - I'm fairly sure, although was using cheap ov tests so it was a case of judging when the lines were the same darkness!
I'm sure my gp will do a blood test, she's very helpful. She is away this week so will have to wait till Monday (really rather just see her).
I'm trying not to get my hopes up. X

loopylou1984 · 29/10/2014 21:44

cmo123 · 30/10/2014 21:24

Maybe we are just not gna get a period at all this month lol

loopylou1984 · 30/10/2014 21:28

Oh no, don't say that! After 12 months of v. Regular afs I really don't want to be back at the beginning! Lol.
I'll go to drs for a blood test on Monday if nothing by then!

cmo123 · 30/10/2014 22:35

Good luck!! Think I'll do the same my doctor told me if I don't come on by then to let her kno x

cmo123 · 31/10/2014 11:26

Day 38 an just come on least I kno now tho!! Good luck to everyone else x

loopylou1984 · 31/10/2014 12:27

Sorry to hear that cmo- as you as at least you know. The waiting is the worst. X

loopylou1984 · 31/10/2014 17:10

Day 34. Just tested and got another negative? Surely it should be showing positive by now at 6 days late if I was pg? So confused, NEVER been this late before! X

cmo123 · 31/10/2014 17:26

That was exsacly same as me 3 negatives an 11 days late in the end then come on!! Neva been this late either but hopefully ur be lucky an get a positive an not come on like me lol x

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 07:49

Just to update you, tested this morning with fmu and still negative. Day 35 now Hmm
I don't know what's going on.
Based on when I ovulated this is ridiculous - but surely the test would show positive by now if I was pg?

cmo123 · 01/11/2014 10:10

Hmm :/ Frastrating isn't it!! Wat test did u use this time ? X

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 10:14

Superdrug own. I don't want to spend loads on a digi one really as I'm kind of expecting negatives now. X

Yeah only use cheapy onea a get a digi to confirm it if it's a faint positive. Only reasons you could be late is if you ovulated way later than you thought which has happened to me before and I just DTD every day until my period came just to cover all basis. Or it's stress or worry about not coming on that's delaying it. Have you got any symptoms? X

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 13:58

I'm fairly sure I ovulated around the 11th/12th as I was using opks hence thinking I would come on on the 25th... I suppose it's possible I mis read the test though.
I was particularly stressed as was fairly sure af was going to start due to the cramping, so a little disappointed but not stressed.
As far as symptoms go, I had cramping for almost 2 weeks from the weekend before af was due, although that seems to have stopped now.
I've been having a little nausea the last few days, but it could just be in my head because I'm thinking about it so much!

How are you feeling? X

loopylou1984 · 01/11/2014 14:06

*wasn't particularly stressed

Well I had cramping for 5 days before my missed period and didn't for one minute think I was pregnant. You may be one of those women that tests don't show positive for. The only symptom i had was cramping and was ony a day late when I tested. Im bloody knackered but apart from that im feeling okay. It feels amazing I just can't wait till im 12 weeks so I can stop worrying x
