Anyone else convinced themselves they are pregnant?

[catlover1987]

Second month of trying after a chemical pregnancy. Only 7 days after ovulation but convinced I have every pregnancy symptom under the sun. Feeling sick, sore boobs, achy legs. But then it could all be in my head. Probably too early to be feeling any of this. This TTC business is going to drive me to madness!

Right help me out here! I did a Clearblue digital test at about 3am this morning 11dpo (couldnt hold on for FMU and couldnt hold off doing a test any longer). BFN. Now I am confused and doubting if I actually am or not. Im still peeing pretty often and my boobs are sore.. and I'm starving hungry. But the last two could just be AF coming on I guess and the first could even be a water infection or something. The days are going SO slowly!!!!! Hope some of you have had more luck than me?! Might do the other CBD test tmoro morning...

CBD aren't very sensitive so it could definitely be wrong this early. I got a positive IC really early but didn't get a positive on a free until about 11dpo and even then it was the faintest line you've ever seen. They became proper lines about 13/14dpo and fmu did make a massive difference at that point.

Good luck!

Frer not free...

I was sick tonight which really isn't like me. Decided to take a test (I know, I know, I said I wouldn't.) BFN. I know it's only day 24 of my cycle and I did test at night so might not accurate but I'm still pretty disappointed. Feeling a bit stupid now. Probably just a stomach bug.

I'm on cycle day 33. AF 2 days late and BFN on a FRER test today! What's going on? x

I had a misscarriage in September and have started ttc again I had a strong feeling I was pregnant again but then started my period but it was irregular and wasn't sure what to expect so spoke to my doctor and had my blood drawn as my period only lasted 3 days and ranged from bright red blood to pinky brown to spotting. 7 days later I received my blood result and got a hcg level of 5 so confused then 3 days after I've started spotting again. Is it possible that I've implanted twice did a hpt test and got a bfn. Is it too early to pick up I have another blood draw on 31st October so nervous and panicking now this is my second time for my first baby.I have had several symptoms e.g headaches cramps nausea aches. Please Help

Try not to panic, I would say wait until you see your doctor again. This is only my second month ttc and I've realised how stressful the process can be if you let it! I had what I thought was a positive test, followed my another faint line and then a BFN! I was due AF on Thursday and only tonight I can see a small amount of pinky blood when I go for a wee on the tissue. I don't know if this is just my period coming late and slowly because I've stressed myself out so much! X

Well AF is due today so I just tested but unfortunately it's a BFN. feeling pretty annoyed at myself that I managed to convince myself I was pregnant. How do people get through this month after month?x

I did the same thing and AF came late and stressed me out even more. I'm going to try not to test until after AF is late from now on x

Sorry cat

You kinda just do get on with it every month. I didn't convince myself every month but there was always hope. It's just that what you are trying for is worth it so giving up just isn't an option!

Hope you get your BFP soon.

It's driving me nuts. 10 dpo, negative Clear Blue this morning. Can't concentrate on anything. Weird twinges, funny-ish taste in mouth. Had a random sharp stabbing pain few days ago. I can't seem to get a grip.

Wait a day or two and try testing with a First Response Early Result washing I don't think Clear Blue tests are as sensitive. Sounds promising!

Thanks, Mrs G. Will do!

I'm convinced I am. Determined not to test until Saturday when AF due.

Good luck everyone!

I'm due on Monday and I thought I was pregnant, sore boobs, aches constant hunger, just feeling it but I took a Superdrug early indication test today and its negative :( so annoyed I really thought I was. There's a glimmer of hope for Monday but I'm doubtful so expecting my period. This getting pregnant again is hard.

AF is now 2 days late which is very unusual for me. I've had cramps all day though. I feel like my body is playing games with me!

I got BFP this morning. Funny as I was convinced I was pg from the moment we had sex but the last few days I've felt great and very normal so decided I must be wrong.
I did a test on Tuesday which was bfn, then tested again today (af due today) it showed within seconds

Ahh Congratulations Bawbles xx

Congrats bawbles. Delighted for you. My AF arrived this morning so the pregnancy symptoms were obviously all in my head. Fingers crossed for next month x

Thank you. I cried when I told Dh (who was delighted) and he's all confused now as he can't understand why I was upset.

I've been temping and opking since coil out in aug but this was first month of properly trying, I thought I'd feel ecstatic but I just feel scared.

Good luck for next cycle catlover

Another month of trying

Hey ladies!
Thought I'd jump onto this. It's slightly different, as I'm on the implant.. and I know most symptoms of pregnant you can gain on the implant itself. However, something doesn't feel right. I was a perfect, slim size ten in August when I was last spotting but I have yet to have another period. I now cannot fit into my size 14 jeans (I feel ridiculous).. have stretch marks under my stomach, sore boobies, and quite a sufficient amount of nausea (no sickness yet, just queasiness)! Also, I'm having the worst craving for cheese.. I've eaten almost a whole block today and nothing will get it away! I've been to walk in centres to try and get a blood test.. refused me, so I rang 111 and they said that I needed to see someone within 6 hours, booked me in.. and they gave me the same bloody answer as the last walk in. Also went to urgent care as my friend said they do blood tests with an appointment but now they don't. I'm going to book a GP appointment tomorrow but I'm a little scared as I've grown to this maybe baby.. I don't want to find out what's happening!

This is the only post that I've really seen sort of.. kind of similar.

Hi Megan. Sounds similar to what I was experiencing last month. I hope you get the answer you're looking for. Keep us posted!

A new cycle for me and another month of trying. I'm trying ovulation sticks this month. Bought a massive pack of cheap ones from amazon so testing every day. Today (cd9) is the first day I have seen a faint line. I never thought I'd get so excited about peeing in to a tubberware dish!

Megan - I had the implant in and I gained 3 stone, suffered extreme fatigue and spotted quite a lot. Boobs were always swollen, stomach always distended and swollen, headaches, fatigue. Think it's because the main hormone in implant is progesterone isn't it?

I convinced myself last cycle. I have long cycles, about 48 days (PCOS) and I was 29 days in and was convinced I was pregnant, I had strong cravings, my boobs felt quite heavy, I was super tired and it was all quite similar to how I felt when I was pregnant in July (m/c), it all just felt so familiar, so it was a big shock when my period arrived a few days later, much earlier than expected! This cycle I am trying to relax and stick with EOD and cross my fingers.
