So my period is around 4 days late now! I have had a flooded test and a negative test! Should I continue to test until my period comes?

Hi, no advice but I'm in the exact same boat. I'm on cycle 33 of a usual 28/29 day cycle with negative tests! It's so frustrating. I've been reading up and some women don't get their bfp till later into the pregnancy. Hoping that is the case for both of us!

Hello, no idea what's going on but there seems to be quite a few of us on here going through the same thing at the minute! I'm on cd 36 of a usual 30 day cycle. Did an ic on Monday and FRER yesterday, both BFN. Been crampy as if af is coming since the day before i was due but never actually come Confused

If you've only just come off the pill your cycles will take a while to settle down. Some people don't get a period for months.

Merrz · 31/01/2018 10:55

I've been off the pill since March last year, first few cycles were long but had regular 30 day cycles since July

SparkLee · 31/01/2018 10:57

merrz I too have been having cramps from the day before I was due!

Merrz · 31/01/2018 11:01

I just wish i knew what was going on! I'm going to hold off until friday which will make me a week late and if still bfn going to make an appointment to see Dr. How long have you been trying?

SparkLee · 31/01/2018 11:07

Yes I think I'm gonna wait until Saturday and if still negative, try again on Monday and that will make me a week late. That is assuming af stays away! We have only been trying for two months, so I am quite surprised really. How long have you been trying?

Im in the same boat my last period was 23rd dec i have a 30 day cycle. I'm now on cycle day 40 with negative tests xx

Owlpatrol · 31/01/2018 13:00

I'm in the same boat; 4 days late today and bfns!! I've had all the same symptoms I had last time I was pregnant; Did a clear blue and it was negative. I feel totally rotten! I'm getting dizzy when I stand up, nauseous, headaches, extra strong sense of smell, extreme fatigue. Cramps have gone and my boobs aren't sore. If I'm not pregnant then what could it be??? I was at the docs on Monday and she said to wait a week then test so I'll give it until then and if no af or bfp then I'll go back to the docs. The suspense is killing me though!! Would love to hear people's updates and see if they are preggo in the end!! Good luck everyone!

V frustrating I know. It's possible that it's just a bit late. I would wait maybe a few days to a week and test again. Trust me i feel you, I'm on the 4th day of my period but my last cycle was 51 days. Went from 29 days (regular) to very long. If you miss 2 periods and the test is negative I would go see your GP.

Merrz · 01/02/2018 08:05

Started spotting yesterday afternoon and af in full swing today! Bloody body playing tricks, gutted because i was getting my hopes up when af was 5 days late but also glad to see af and know what's going on Confused

Prembabymum · 01/02/2018 09:28

@Merrz I'm sorry to hear that. I'm in the same boat and it's inevitably a bit gutting; although, as you say, good to know where you stand. I found that living in limbo was the hardest bit probably!

Merrz · 01/02/2018 10:33

Yes the waiting was definitely the worst bit for me this cycle, now af is here it doesn't actually seem so bad. Just wish i knew when it would actually happen Sad

XxMagpiexX · 01/02/2018 13:27

AT came this morning! Absoloutely gutted as I had convinced myself this was it 😔 oh well maybe next time!
