5 days late!

Just looking for a bit of advice really?

Basically AF was due on the 30th of December, so as of today is 5 days late! And she's no where to be seen!

I took a test on the day my AF was due as I just felt a bit weird (spotty chin, headachy, bleeding teeth, cramping, backache). It's was BFN. Then I retested yesterday when I was 4 days late and again BFN.

What's going on? I've had horrendous back ache all day and keep running to the loo to see if she's here! Nada!

Thanks in advance! Grin xx

Really sorry to hear that.

I got my BFP today after being a week late and having four previous negative tests.
Total shock.
I feel bad sharing this when you've just had AF arrive but hope it reassures you and others it can still happen.

Congrats sparkly! Don't feel bad. I'm happy for you. And it does give me hope that maybe next cycle will be better

Chockywockydodah · 10/01/2017 14:36

So sorry Khaleesi Sad on the bright side, I've read some women get AF really late one cycle and then get their bfp the next!! Will be thinking of you!

Congratulations Sparky!! There's hope yet! 11 days late still no AF or bfp! Ah well

Aww sorry to hear that chocky! Sending hugs your way. Seems our cycles are similar!
I'm hoping next cycle will be the one. Going to try harder this month.

Going to try and get a thermometer and chart my temp this cycle and also get an ovulation test kit so I can be a bit more accurate.

I've got horrible cramps. Really don't want to go to work tonight 😞 feeling rather sorry for myself. One of my friends has just announced she is pregnant and she wasn't even trying 😭

Chockywockydodah · 10/01/2017 18:00

Fingers crossed for the both of us - next month will be the one!! Grin

Seems so unfair when that happens doesn't it Envy

Morning all!

Well this af has hit me hard. It's a particularly heavy one this cycle. Clearly making up for being late! Feel rotten today so have taken the day off college and work. Just going to rest up in bed today and eat my body weight in chocolate 😂

How are you today chocky? And everyone else?
Hope everyone is good and certainly not feeling as bad as me today xx

Chockywockydodah · 11/01/2017 16:58

Same here Khaleesi, not so much heavy but really painful and crampy 😭 way more than usual!!

Can I join too? I'm just on the cusp of 34 days when it's normally 28 or 29. I've not said anything to dh yet, I'm going to wait until the weekend to test as I have gone 33 days once in a blue moon. My boobs are pretty sore but I'm not sure if I'm imaging things! Keep feeling like AF might arrive but nothing yet - fingers crossed. Also weeing all the time!

Chockywockydodah · 11/01/2017 19:49

Hi Glen! Your symptoms sound really promising! Keeping everything crossed for you!

You're being so good by not testing! I couldn't wait that long 😂😬

Hi glen! Welcome here. Everyone is really friendly and supportive on here.
Your symptoms sound promising. Fingers crossed and let us know when you test.

chocky that sounds promising if this next cycle is meant to be more fertile. Fingers crossed we both have a successful cycle this time! How's your af now?
Mine has settled now. Was horrific to start with but bit more normal now. Was feeling disheartened but more positive now 🙂

Chockywockydodah · 12/01/2017 12:33

Glad to hear everything has settled down now Khaleesi! Still pretty cramps over here but managing to keep myself busy running round after my two LOs Smile

Hey chocky and others ☺

How are you all? Whereabouts on your cycle are you now?
I'm cd9. Lots of DTD going down in the hopes that this is our month. Just looking at ovulation tests are there any anyone recommends?
Really want to try and narrow down when I actually ovulate to give us more of a chance this month!

Hope you're all well. I've been so busy with college and work! xx
