DH and I were ttc our first child earlier in the year until he became seriously ill. Obviously his health took priority, he is now recovering well, I am now being treated for PTSD in relation to his illness and making steady recovery myself. After discussion with DH and the nursing team supporting him we decided that whilst not actively ttc we wouldn't prevent either.

Now 2 days late, been having cramps for about a week as normal. Boobs which are normally really tender have been fine until today. Constantly hungry (though on meds that increase appetite anyway) and been having nosebleeds almost daily this week, occasionally slight nausea (often nauseous pre menstrualy) and a bit pmt irritable too. Was a nightmare at symptom spotting when we were ttc, and seems thats not changed! Lol

Sounds like you've had a lot of stress. Sending massive hugs. I can't imagine how hard it's been dealing with your DHs illness and it being so bad that you have PTSD. FX that you get your BFP soon and that you can cope with everything a little easier. X

Thanks, still no AF, trying to devide if my boobs are swollen or if its wishful thinking. Feeling decidedly queezy right now, again wondering if its my imagination. Been reading up, apparently if implantation is late is possible for hpt not to show bfp until 19dpo. Will give it a few more days before I test again.

Unfortunately stress can be a problem for AF. And symptoms usually come from 5-6 weeks pregnant. Try another test in a week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. X

Still no sign of AF yet 4 days late now. Even through the stressful times my cycles have stayed 29 0r 30 days longest ever was 32 days which was when I first came off the pill, so thinking I'll wait till tues and test again, give any hgc a chance to build up to a decent line lol, or maybe I've just ovulated late this time and AF will get me by then!

Another BFN, think it must just be an odd cycle 6 days late no sign of AF cramping has stopped but still got sore boobs and occadional slight nausea but otherwise not even feeling premenstrual going to accept I'm not pregnant though and wait for AF to eventually arrive.
