my last period started on aug 17th, I had unprotected sex (twice) on 25th of August.....thought nothing of it until Monday 2nd Sept when I had sore breasts, which were worse the next day when someone hugged me I had to back off. I have been noting a few other symptoms too such as heartburn, short headaches, feeling emotional etc. I've taken 2 tests both negative but still feel something isn't right??

I would be inclined to say the 25th was too early to ovulate.

How long are your cycles? How long was your last period?

Okay, usually have a 28 day cycle, last period was about 5 days and relatively light.

I would definitely be inclined to say the 25th is too early to ovulate. If your period doesn’t arrive by the 14th (cd28), test again.

Would I be ovulating 5 days after the 25th? As I know sperm can stay in you for up to 5 days

It can do but sperm can only survive if the conditions are right. I’m not saying it’s impossible for you to be pregnant but I would say it’s unlikely.

The average cycle would see you ovulating around day 14-16. Day 14 would have been 5 days after the 25th for you but that’s assuming that’s when you ovulated. I ovulated 4 days late last month when I am normally day 14/15.

Basically my body tricking me for being silly in the first place I suppose!

I never noticed the symptoms I get before AF until I started TTC. I get sore boobs, tiredness, nausea, cramping...
