Hey GALS! please give me some advice or hope?
Me and my partner have been trying to conceive for two years. :'( and its so bloody stressful.
Any ways i was due AF Tuesday, i normally have spotting a few days before AF starts but i've had nothing. I tested the Monday as and Tuesday mid day and both BFN with First Response. I do have slight cramping today but still no sign of AF. Only strange things i have is some food taste a bit offish and certain smells make me feel a little sicky.. but i know this could all be in my head.

If any one has any advice please please help :'(

No advice, I’m afraid.

I’m exactly in the same position as you. Due Tuesday and still waiting, no normal PMT symptoms but really sore boobs and some weird sensations in my abdomen.

Really hope this is it for us both 😞

@poptypingchef I really hope we both get our bfp soon! When are you next going to test?!

It would be rare to get a positive after the date your period is due. Have you asked the doctor about the spotting as that is a sign of low progesterone.

@itscallednickingbentcoppers is it ? When would you suggest to take a test? And I’ve told my doctor but they have never mentioned anything. I have had blood tests

@ShannEn16

At the moment I’m assuming no news is not great so unless I get to 10 days and don’t start to see any signs im not going to waste the time or money POAS. 😞

I tested everyday last month when AF didn't show, absolutely nothing until the 8th day I was late I got a faint positive, I then got my official BFP on day 9! Used a frer every morning !! I'm assuming I just ovulated late, you could be exactly the same!! I'm now nearly 8 weeks ❤️
I had exactly the same symptoms heavy boobs, tummy cramps just like period pains xx

@SamRwl oh wow congrats!!! This feels me with so much hope!!
I was trying not to get my hopes up but it’s so hard!! I will try test on day 9 first thing in the morning! I think I just need to keep busy! Thank you so much for telling me this I always thought you should get a bfp on day of missed period 🤭xx

Me too @ShannEn 16 - I know it can happen but I assumed it was rare. I’m very pragmatic about things normally. If AF arrives at least I can get on with my new cycle and learn from the last but this limbo....

@poptypingchef oh I know this waiting game is killing me! I know that if/when AF come I’m going to be broken but then I can carry on. I just need to know!

@poptypingchef how long have you been trying?

OP posts:

Longer than I was hoping to @ShannEn16 😔 AF has arrived so I’m out but I feel much better and at least I can start again this month.
