Feeling pregnant but no bfp yet

[Mum637k]

Hi ladies,
I've been pregnant before and feeling similar symptoms but AF not due for a few more days. I have tested a few times with different tests, all came back negative. AF is due in 5 days so I tried a clearblue digital but came back negative. I know it might still be early or I might just be imagining my symptoms. Anyone have a similar experience? Did you end up being pregnant or not?

Has anyone had symptoms but had their period too? Basically I still get up and feel the urge to vom (I don’t) have a headache daily and the tiredness is real!!

@SunnyL88 I thought I did last cycle but I wasn't pregnant. I don't know anyone who has had their period and turned out to be pregnant but I have read several people had that online so it's possible. Take a test ☺️

Hope you don’t mind me joining, you all seem like test experts! I’ve been feeling so nauseous the last three days and had headaches/dizziness! App is telling me AF is in 6 days and I’m 7dpo, when can I take FRER?

Hi @Pinkcat231 you'd expect actual symptoms to appear from around 6-7dpo, prior to that it's most likely normal progesterone symptoms as implantation hasn't happened yet there for no pregnancy hormones. I'd say hold off to at least 10DPO If you can hold on, even then it's early, I plan to test at 10 (so next tuesday) with a first response but won't be disheartened if it's negative

Thanks @Katy85 thought it was a bit soon but my cycle has become really short since the pill so no idea how to adjust dates etc TTC is so confusing!!

@Pinkcat231 I came off the pill end of Dec so this is 3rd cycle ttc, last cycle was so screwed up, AF came 5 days early (bitch) so it was only 21 days, I seem to be a bit more back to normal this cycle. Also I used the clearblue advanced OPKs to help figure our what was happening and when. I think i ovulated on the 2nd, so I'm hoping I'll start to feel something different over the next few days that can't be attributed to normal progesterone

I came off end of October @Katy85 and it’s still hard to predict when AF will come I now have three apps for it! I haven’t started on OPKs yet going to wait a couple more months before getting obsessed with those too! Good luck for symptoms and a BFP

How's everyone doing? @Pinkcat231 @Katy85 @Mum637k

@Pop1234 Hi, well I'm at 9dpo today, this was the point in my cycle that AF turned up early, so far so good, absolutely no spotting so far, AF due this weekend. My symptoms from 6-8dpo are
6 - sharp pain right in the middle of uterus area midday, ravenous appetite and headache in the evening.
7 - constipated and fell asleep in the afternoon, bloated.
8 - weird sensations all around belly button area, like little electric shocks but not painful, seemed to focus later on to about an inch to the left and down from belly button, sometimes lower back. Heartburn in pm (I never get this but this was a major thing I had in my first pregnancy), joint pain, like spikes of pain in fingers, irritable (like just wanting to not be around people, would sneak off upstairs to be get some quiet from my 5year old), slight nausea when I went to bed last night, but I never experienced morning sickness at all during my first pregnancy so it's not a big symptom for me I think.
9 - today - that spot diagonal down left of my belly button is really tingling again.
I really don't want to test til later in the week though

@Pop1234 10dpo today, took FRER yesterday but no sign of a line at all.

Still have odd symptoms, eating more than usual but constantly feeling nauseous, stomach cramps but could be AF coming, stabbing pain on left side comes and goes, occasionally feeling faint. AF due Thursday so not long to wait, but not feeling hopeful

@Pinkcat231 you're not out til AF shows!

Thanks @Katy85 will keep you all updated!

I've just ordered a twin pack of FRER from Amazon for £7.49, that's the cheapest I can find those specific ones. Prime delivery tomorrow so I'll test Wednesday with fmu, that'll be 11dpo with 4 days to AF. Little waves of nausea right now and heartburn, I just feel 'off'

@Pop1234 I'm good but trying really hard not to scroll through forums or think about it at all😆 last month i tested almost daily from 8 dpo like a psycho!😂 i was adamant that there will be a second line eventually and it drove me crazy. How are you doing?☺️

@Mum637k I'm trying to be the same. Felt so miserable last month so I'm not testing and imagining lines again.

@Katy85 have you tested yet?

@Pinkcat231 any sign of a line yet?

@Pop1234 I'm going to take a FRER tomorrow morning, I've had really bad heartburn/reflux the last two evenings which I never ever get, (certainly not two days in a row) except for when I was pregnant with my son 5 years ago, I could have kept a whole farm going with the amount of milk I drank 😂

@Katy85 let us know!! I love a line pic.

@Pop1234 Nothing yet

Good luck @Katy85 keep us updated

Fingers crossed for you @Katy85 !!☺️

@Katy85 good luck testing this morning 😊

@Pop1234 well I took that FRER first thing this morning, am I crazy or is there something there??

@Katy85 I can see something. How many dpo are you?

@Pop1234 only 11dpo this morning so wouldn't expect a dark line, going to test again tomorrow, hopefully it will be darker. The camera hasn't picked it up great tbh

@Katy85 it's clearer than what I thought could be positives on mine last month. Is it more pink in person? I'm 7dpo today but trying really hardly not to symptom spot after last month. I do keep getting a funny feeling a bit lower down than my belly button and to the left. Probably imagining it though 😂

@Pop1234 yeah it's definitely a faint pink colour, the camera hasn't picked it up well. That's the spot I'm getting a niggley sensation, wouldn't call it cramping, just a pressure/tingly feeling, very specific location. Had the reflux again last night, and the shooting pains in joints (fingers, knees and hips), not really any nausea, but I didn't have that in my first pregnancy
