@Trinnidad why do pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms have to be so similar, nature is really cruel isn't it?

OP posts:
ale2992 · 28/01/2019 21:47

@Trinnidad also not come across the test you mentioned? I've always used early first response or the cheap strip ones from amazon recently

@Ambs81 I can see a line!

@ale2992 these tests are only meant to be when you've missed AF, 99% from first day due. They're sensitive to 25mlu so not as sensitive as the early test ones. I thought it was weird for our large local pharmacy not to have FRERs! I got 2 of these today as I was going by the pharmacy where I wouldn't bump into anyone. Boots is too risky in my town!!

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 05:47

@Trinnidad ah I see, probably still too early then. I'm going to test Thursday or Friday if AF doesn't show up.
Still nauseous, my boobs only seem to be getting more and bigger, cramps, back ache and spotting yesterday and today. Not sure if they early preg symptoms or pms symptoms 😩

Well BFN this am :( guess my excitement yesturday was just a fluke mark/evap. I was so sure!

Ahhhh this shit takes its toll! Af a day late (as she is a sneaky bitch who likes to get your hopes up) will probably turn up today. No signs of her yet but a BFN on FRER at 14dpo is pretty confirmative eh?

Aria2015 · 29/01/2019 13:17

I'm due AF Thursday. My boobs are really sore and veiny which is unusual but I'm getting crampy feelings like AF is coming so it's probably nothing. Took a cheap test today and BFN - it's not an early response one though. Going to see if AF comes Thursday and if not retest Friday but I'm not holding out much hope.

lizzie198 · 29/01/2019 14:45

Hi ladies I need your eyes. I am 99.9% sure this is bfn but some ladies on another post have said they think they see a very faint line. I won't be offended if you all agree with me but now having little doubts. I was 11dpo when I took this yesterday in the morning. AF due 02/02 and have been having cramps and sore nipples.

Ignore the arrow that was me pointing out part of the test that's meant to be there

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 16:29

@Igotthemheavyboobs sorry to hear that, baby dust for next month xx

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 16:29

@lizzie198 I'd retest if you can, I can see something that does look like a line x

OP posts:
ale2992 · 29/01/2019 16:30

@Aria2015 I feel like AF is on the way but have a few unusual symptoms so hoping I'm wrong x

OP posts:
Igotthemheavyboobs · 29/01/2019 17:51

Still no AF but bfn on clear blue digi this evening. Really really gotta stop testing at night! Stupid thibg to do lol!

Hoping your wrong about af symptoms!! 🤞🤞🤞

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 18:16

Me too!!!

Ambs81 · 29/01/2019 18:23

@lizzie198
Try tomorrow with a frer, if you can- I used a cb er test this morning and got a really clear results, I am 9dpo- af is due this Sunday but hoping she stays well away

TWW
lizzie198 · 29/01/2019 18:27

@Ambs81 congratulations! 😊

I've got a frer so probably will try that in the morning. Got some boots early response ones as well which you can use up to 5 days before so would just fall into them as well so will probably do both.

Trinnidad · 29/01/2019 18:52

@Ambs81 Congratulations!

@lizzie198 fingers crossed for your next test!

For me, AF is due tomorrow (relieved not early because I had a swimming lesson today!) no aches or anything yet but not feeling optimistic!

Coming to the end of our TWW is tough but let's keep positive everyone! xx

ale2992 · 29/01/2019 19:35

@Ambs81 congrats!!

stitchwitch84 · 29/01/2019 20:23

@Ambs81 Congratulations, that's wonderful! Here's hoping she stays well away…

Argh I cannot endure this waiting any longer!!! Due on Saturday, want to test now but mustn't, going to try to wait till Friday at the earliest (but I expect I will test on Thursday! FRER though so not entirely ridiculous)

mammaF16 · 29/01/2019 20:54

I am only 8-9dpo and really wanting to test but just know it is too early. Getting cramping the past day or so similar to before AF but not due for another week don't know if a good or bad sign, also sore back and headaches and quite tired but this could just be the norm stuff.

Fingers crossed for you all and the BFPs!

stitchwitch84 · 29/01/2019 21:13

@mammaF16 it's so unfair that early pregnancy and PMS have such similar symptoms! Do hold back from testing, though - I never do and it's always such a disappointment Grin

mammaF16 · 29/01/2019 21:25

@stitchwitch84 thanks for your message. They are so similar and is hard to decide but I do think it is a little early for me to get PMS cramps, but who knows.

Going to try and wait and maybe do a frer on Friday, but still maybe too early

fabmaz · 29/01/2019 21:26

Completely agree!!! So annoying that all symptoms could also just be related to AF! Wish there were definite symptoms so we at least had a better idea than all this waiting

ale2992 · 30/01/2019 07:34

Pretty sure AF is showing up this morning. Spotting has increased, still not bleeding but I think it's definitely in its way.
I'm ok though, disappointed obviously but I know we weren't 100% trying this month and that it's better to have a period after miscarriage.
