5 days late, negative tests

Anyone had this and turned out to be pregnant? I'm so confused.
I feel just like I did before I got my bfp with my son a few years ago, if not worse tbh.
I don't get af symptoms at all really except cramps for the day before I come on.
I got a clear blue positive at one day late but now thinking it was an evap.
I've just done an Asda pink test and it's completely negative.
I'm literally baffled.

Am I out or is this rare but happens? Help 😧

Half and half tbh
He's amazing most of the time but wont do a blood test which is infuriating!

6 days now. Did another test with fmu and nada on the screen. Hmm

I know other things make us late but I just can't see why, I'm not overly stressed and fully expected to come on last week. The more the days go on the more my boobs ache & the more exhausted I get. Was flat out asleep at half 9 last night usually I'm a midnight onwards person!

hey girls! I'm in the same situation... I'm 5 days late today and have got a negative test! my cycle is 32 days it's never more! I spotted brown discharge around a week before I was due for about 3 days... ( I only saw it when I wiped) since then I've had cramping and stretchy like discharge.. feel like im coming on any moment... i run to the tpilet with cramps then nothing is there...I just want to know what's going on! did any of you get a bfp? I'm driving myself insane googling all the time haha xxx

Don't mean to be a downer but I was 5 days late and adamant I was pregnant as AF always arrives bang on time. Did four tests which were BFN and AF arrived day 6 Sad Hoping for a BFP for you though xx

teaortequila23 · 08/09/2017 21:02

Hey girls I was 9days late the 2days ago and tested twice (day 1late and day 8late) my period is never late and I keep an eye on it all the time. Both tests were negative and then weirdly enough got my period at 9days late!

Hey girls

I'm now a week late (if we count 12.30am as the 7th day 😁)

Abby you seem to be on the same AF date as me except my cycle is 28 days usually!
I'm still waiting for either AF or BFP. I'm trying not to stress (which is difficult when it's literally hurting my poor nips just to put a bra on 😂)
Keep us updated we can go through it together!

owl & tea tbh if I'm not pregnant I just want my period to come! I can't stand the waiting!

boat that's intriguing! We're you getting BFNs beforehand?

OP posts:
abby25 · 09/09/2017 09:17

yea I'm trying not to get my hopes up! so frustrating though just want to know 😣😣 I'm going to try and wait another 5 days... if af still hasn't arrived by then I shall test again... and if another negative I shall go to the doctors... still getting cramping today! are any of you testing again soon? xxx

abby25 · 09/09/2017 09:20

woohoo so glad someone else is it the same boat as me.... not glad glad but you know what I mean I'm not the only one going crazy! haha let me know if you come on or get a bfp! have you been pregnant before? xxx

abby25 · 09/09/2017 11:36

oh just re-read your first post! this will be my first ever pregnancy been trying 6 months so far and already feel like I'm losing the plot! hope I haven't got fertility problems! even though my cycles are regular etc just have so many friends who fall pregnant so quick makes me think what is wrong with me! (I know I'm going crazy and overthinking things) haha xxxx

I'll definitely keep you updated!
It took 7 months with my DS to get pregnant after being on the pill for 5 years. I stressed myself out so much every month then literally like people say as soon as I stopped bothering it happened!
I was so distressed when I got my period the month before I was pregnant that I just cried for days and days. Said I was just going to forget TTC and let it happen, that month it did! I had a bloody awful pregnancy though full of problems and stuff. Hoping this time will be easier!

I've been told it takes generally 6-12 months on average to get pregnant & after 12 months the docs usually help with clomid and tests, hang in there!!

So the fun bit - what symptoms are you getting?! My boobs are KILLING. My nips are literally so sore and sensitive way worse than with my son. I also feel nauseas all the time & cant stand sweet stuff at the minute (which isn't like me at all!!) so if I turn out not pregnant I'm going to be furious with my body Grin xxx

abby25 · 09/09/2017 18:08

Oh my god I feel that about losing your shit if you're not 😂
My discharge is really creamy but a ton of it! It's my nips that are making me believe I am cause I've never felt them this pointy and sore/sensitive 😂
Pointy is obviously the technical term Grin xxxx

abby25 · 09/09/2017 18:45

haha! suppose we will have to just wait 😣 of I'm not pregnant I want my period to hurry up just so I can get trying again! lol these cramps are freaking me out I'm having them as we speak keep going to the toilet but no period 😣 looked online and a few people said they were getting cramps before they found out they were pregnant but think I'm just giving myself false hope 😂xxx
