Please say I'm not alone in this! I can't be the only one desperately waiting for her body to decide one way or the other!

1st cycle after DS born and still bf.
Day #36
BFN yesterday afternoon
And with cramps and nausea alternately making my hopes go up and down

Anyone else bfn but no af?

Im in the same boat. Was due AF last Thursday ad BFN tested again on Saturday and BFN too. Afraid to test again but still no AF. Would bf have your cycle longer?

I was in this position last month! Turned out I skipped a whole cycle completely! No idea why + all possible symptoms!

My cycle averages 30 days but ttc last time I had the odd 40 day cycle. I think bf-ing might be screwing with me as well. My

Sorry was typing and DS got the phone and posted! Meant to ask how long you're going to wait it out before testing again Mrs?

I think until this Thursday when I'll be a week late @Modestandatinybitsexy literally sitting on my hands tying to stop myself testing LOL

Have had bloating and stomach cramps for a few days now, though the stress of waiting is probably causing it!

Modestandatinybitsexy · 15/05/2018 16:08

Isn't that right Cookie! Have you tested? When's af due?

5 days til AF, couldn't wait so tried yesterday, was BFN. Have had backache all week and sore boobs for a few days. This is all new to me and after all the reading I've been doing I'm amazed how inconsistent everyone's experiences are. Crazy stuff! Sneakily bought myself a few tests (thanks Amazon Prime!) and trying to resist til the weekend....

Cookie it's probably still early for you yet. Fx for you!

Mrs how are you holding out today? I had new frer tests delivered and it's so tempting to use them! No idea about how trustworthy the cheaply Tesco ones I was using are.

Tried an internet cheaper last night and it was negative! Raging but holding out for tomorrow with a FRER. Not looking good :( absolutely no sign of AF though! Crazy how cycles change when Ttc as if it wasn't hard enough.. how old is your DS @Modestandatinybitsexy?

Modestandatinybitsexy · 16/05/2018 17:38

He'll be a year old in a few weeks!! I was going to hold out for a bigger gap in between but DH has got broody, and with work coming back around and how long it took us last time I thought what's the harm in trying not trying? Apparently I'm incapable of not trying though!

Still holding out hope but my bfn is making me think I'm not. All kinds of symptoms have faded now too.
