Yet another 'no AF but BFN' post.

Just want somewhere to chat about it really! AF 2 days late - not wildly unusual but the last few months have been very regular - and not having any of the pre-menstrual symptoms I usually have...but equally not having any 'pregnancy' symptoms. I tested FMU yesterday and today and both BFN. Anyone else in the same boat at the moment? Cake

Hey guys can I check in too? Cd47 here had a positive opk around the 20th no AF but bfn.

Came off pill in August and things had regulated the last couple of months (35 day cycles) now it's gone to pot! Trying not to read into symptoms at the moment!

Really cheering you all on for positives or even AF so we know what on earth is going on!!!!

ShouldHaveListenedInBiology · 14/03/2016 19:34

You know what, if this shit happened to men it would be immediately and properly dealt with. Grin It's just so confusing and crazy-making. At least we are not alone. BFN this morning and I think that is that. Does anyone happen to know how long I might wait for something to happen? Positive test on 6th March and BFNs since then. Sad

CD53 and AF has finally appeared with a vengeance!
Half completely relieved because we were not TTC but also a little sad because I had gotten used to the idea of a squishy baby!

Good luck to you all Star Flowers

CD45. Still no AF and another BFN... It is really unsettling as I have never had irregular cyclea. At what point does it become worth seeing a Dr? Pregnancy test leaflets say if you test negative again 3 days after due date but Internet suggests that as there's lots of reasons to miss a period to wait until you have missed 2 or 3.

Mummybethh07 · 15/03/2016 15:23

Hi, I'm new to this! Currently 5/6 days late, had a negative test on day 3&4. Not trying but admittedly not the safest. Oh is very stressed over it bless him, so worried about me (had very bad pnd with baby #1) no signs of period, never been late before (other than my previous pregnancy) SOO confused!! Boobs are a bit sore but other than that have no symptoms, it's driving me crazy!!

Mummy2squish · 15/03/2016 15:32

power if this hasn't happened before to you I would be inclined to see your GP as you are more than just a few days late (assuming you're on a 28 day cycle) because mine are all over the place my docs are generally dismissive of it Sad

talulahbelle · 17/03/2016 12:09

CD 42 here. BFN last night, strong cramping today, but still no flipping AF. This is getting stupid.

It's the opposite of early pregnancy when you are on knicker watch and dreading any bleeding - I now just want it to flipping well hurry up.

MSHOG · 17/03/2016 12:35

Has anyone got AF or BFP??

Nothing has changed for me... I'm on cycle day 49!
Only slight change is a few symptoms... A lot of stringy but cloudy coloured cm! 🙈 And a horrible metal taste.
I tested on Monday and got a BFN!
I can't stand the cost of disapointment of testing loads! If I don't get AF this months il go to the doctors. I think it's too late this month to get a BFP now! 😫

Mummy2squish · 17/03/2016 13:08

BFN test yesterday and no AF Cd 50 also had a weird metal taste and sort lower stomach so I'm with you Hun.

Come of AF show up and explain yourself!!

MSHOG · 17/03/2016 13:50

Is this normal for you? The longest Iv had before is 34 days!
Are you going to the docs? Or just waiting for next month? X

Adventuregame · 17/03/2016 17:35

CD42 here.
No AF/No bfp
bfn yesterday. I don't mind all the testing - I'm used to it for coming off medication so it doesn't upset me.
If it wasn't for the clearblue saying I'd had peak fertility then 42 day cycle wouldn't be out of the ordinary for me but I have no idea what's happening.
Mummy MSHOG isn't metal taste a pregnancy symptom ?!

Mummy2squish · 17/03/2016 17:41

mshog coming off the pill (in August) seems to take forever to sort with me. But I was in a regular cycle by now with my first. Mentioned to the doc when I went with something unrelated and they just dismissed it Sadgonna see another doc at the end of the month if not back on again.

I think it is a symptom of pregnancy but it's deffo a bfn for me!!

MSHOG · 17/03/2016 17:57

I'm not sure if the symptoms are in my head. I do have a metal taste, slightly sore boobs, a lot of CM, cramps etc... But I keep getting bfn!
I havnt been on birth control for years. Iv never had this sort of cycle before. It's very frustrating!
I'm worried the doctors will fob me off!
I'm 2 weeks late today (from my longest cycle) but I did have spotting that finished 7 days ago!
It's all very confusing!
Are you both going to chart this month? I don't know if I should just start again??

MSHOG · 17/03/2016 18:21

Also is anyone using the cheap pregnancy test strips from the Internet? That's what Iv been using?!

Mummy2squish · 17/03/2016 20:08

mshog is it possible that the spotting you had last week was implantation bleed? I use internet ones but must admit I also use and believe the boots own or first response more!

I would test again with a different brand of I were you xx

MSHOG · 17/03/2016 21:04

I really don't know. Iv never had anything like it before. It was after my period was due though... does that happen?! 😳 It felt like my period was coming, but nothing came out. It was really brown, and only when I wiped. I put pass in and didn't have a single drop! Very weird.
How long after implantation would it show as bfp?
Iv got some first response tests- il try one first thing in the morning- then I'm giving up for this month!
I just want to know one way or anything. The whole time I havnt got AF I feel like there is hope. But I think it might be false hope this month.
Mummy2squish what are you going to do? Just wait it out?

Mummy2squish · 17/03/2016 21:31

Yep I have heard you can get the bleed when your period is due but I didn't experience it.

Definitely test fx for you.

I've just got to wait for AF to come really, not a lot else I can do! I've never had much luck with opks so no point using them to try and figure out what's happening! Just need to wait until end of the month and see the doc.

MSHOG · 18/03/2016 07:40

Iv tested this morning with a first response and got a bfn! 😩 I was really hoping it was be a positive. Oh well. I guess il just have to wait for AF to come and start from there.

Mummy2squish · 18/03/2016 08:14

Oh I'm sorry mshog we will race each other to AF!! I'm actually willing it to arrive now!

MSHOG · 18/03/2016 08:58

I just want AF to come now! I feel very out of sync.
How long have you been trying for?
This is our 6th month, it feels like forever.
All I can see is babies everywhere. I can't wait to get pregnant. Hopefully it happens soon.

Mummy2squish · 18/03/2016 09:37

Exactly the same! And on CD51 so we're pretty similar.

I already have DS1 but don't want too big an age gap! Don't really have a choice though!!

Adventuregame · 24/03/2016 13:07

So I now think I'm heading for another LH surge this cycle - static smiley this morning. This must mean that although I tested for a surge earlier on in the cycle perhaps I didn't ovulate ?

It's frustrating cos then if you do get a bfp you don't really have a frame of reference to date it ?

Argggghhhhhhhhhh
