3 days late for period but had a negative yesterday, can't bring myself to see another negative test 😪

I'm in exactly the same boat. 3 days late, 3 bfn pregnancy test and one with a line but after an hour so probably an evap or a dye run! I'm not testing again until Monday!

imnewtothis · 06/11/2019 06:49

It is just so hard isn't it, fingers crossed for you!

Any sign of AF for you yet?

imnewtothis · 06/11/2019 08:03

Nope, nothing but I just feel out you know :( what about you?

20DPO, 6 days late for AF- nothing is happening apart from excruciating headache 🤕

imnewtothis · 06/11/2019 15:50

@sunnyflover I have had the worst headaches too!

VCP88 · 06/11/2019 16:26

Nope. Nothing here either! Are you both usually regular??

Tdmama · 06/11/2019 17:55

Can I join? AF due Thursday. 2 BFN.. no sign of AF but having some cramping. Pretty sure AF is on its way. I'm on cycle day 41. Usually around 35 day cycle but had an abnormal 45 day cycle in August. I've had fatigue and a bit of nausea this week but I think it's all in my head!

Mycrazylife85 · 06/11/2019 17:55

Me also. I have pcos came off the pill January and slowly my cycles have reduced. I have been using OPK despite them apparently not being useful with pcos, but my period has arrived 12pdo every single time! This month, first time we dtd on the day of a blazing positive OPK, my period hadn't arrived.

I'm now 17dpo, on cd42. This morning negative test. No sign of af. I've had some odd very sore back ache Friday, very sore stomach Sunday, two days ago one instance of darker discharge followed by very watery (thought af had arrived). Who knows. I'm in limbo.

Welcome guys!

@Mycrazylife85 I too have PCOS but have always been regular with a 32-34 day cycle. When I conceived my daughter, I was given tamoxifen to help.
1st month of this I conceived her and never got a positive OPK so I have never used them again!

Moved house since and they refuse to give me tamoxifen. I have a private appt with my old gp to prescribe it to me next week but you never know, I might not need it!

Currently on CD37, haven't tested today, trying to wait until Monday!

When do you guys think you will test again?

Mycrazylife85 · 06/11/2019 18:41

@VCP88 that sounds positive for you. I don't think I'll bother until Friday as I'm due to go out on the evening. Then I don't know if I just stop testing after. It'll have been 7 days late by then and there won't be anything to see if it hasn't turned up by then surely 🤷‍♀️

SunnyFlover · 06/11/2019 18:47

@VCP88 not sure, as only second full cycle after the contraceptive pill ( been on it for 10 years). Basing it on the 1st post pill cycle- Af should have come by now. The only thing I am absolutely certain is that I caught my ovulation day perfectly, aka felt it as well as tested positive 100%.

@Tdmama @Mycrazylife85 - patience, still plenty of time for the BFP to be cooking. 🌻

Tdmama · 06/11/2019 19:07

Fingers crossed everyone. I had my coil out in April. My DD is almost 5, I caught with her my first cycle off the pill! So this is a whole new world for me. I've been using OPK all month but I didn't really get a clear positive. Not sure if I should have taken photos to compare!

When is everyone testing again? I think I'll leave it til the weekend.

Tdmama · 06/11/2019 19:08

@VCP88 sounds positive for you!

VCP88 · 06/11/2019 19:27

Hoping it's positive but tested a few times since AF was due and all negative! Google can be your best friend or worst enemy though!

Tjmama · 06/11/2019 20:34

@VCP88 same. I'm googling constantly!! The stress of it is probably delaying AF! How long have you been trying? Do you have any children?

Mycrazylife85 · 06/11/2019 21:59

@Tjmama I get you! I've been looking at how late people get BFPs. I think 17dpo and three days late would be plenty really. Luckily I have the doctors Monday anyway, if AF hadn't arrived I'm going to see if they'll do blood tests.

VCP88 · 07/11/2019 06:21

I've got a DD, she's 3 next month. Been trying since Julyish time. Haven't really tracked it because I didn't want to take over my life like it did last time. I don't think that was healthy for anyone.

I think I ovulated late (tmi alert), I had a gush (gross word) of ewcm 13 days ago. So I think the reason AF hasn't arrived is because of that. If my suspicions are true, AF should come tomorrow or Saturday. I've never been this late before though!

imnewtothis · 07/11/2019 08:03

Wow welcome everyone! Im on the app so don't get notifications. Had such a busy evening last night so it took my mind off everything, I dont want to tell my partner I'm late, I can't face getting his hope's up. How is everyone today?

OP posts:
SunnyFlover · 07/11/2019 09:37

@VCP88 I can understand what you are saying... Taking over the life part is totally teal right now. And it's so stupid, we have been trying only for last 2 months property and this frustration is already so high... Dangerous!

VCP88 · 07/11/2019 14:33

Think I'm out! Caved and took a test: there is the tiniest line which you probably cannot even see but I think it's an evap. Still no AF. How's everyone else getting on?

3 days late 😩
3 days late 😩
SunnyFlover · 07/11/2019 14:35

Girls!!!! FR test is BFP!!!!!! OMG .....
I have saved some morning urine and waiting for the tests to arrive in the post ( in my residence country they don't sell FR).
The line is not as prominent as the control line, but it is certainly not that faint either!

I just hope it gets darker by the day... ❤️

@VCP88 take a First Response Early Result year. None of the others picked mine up. Only this test. Good luck, you are not out just yet 😘 21 DPO, finally my faint little dot is here

3 days late 😩
VCP88 · 07/11/2019 14:42

@SunnyFlover this is absolutely amazing! Massive congratulations!

I have just ordered some! Great idea about saving the wee! 21dpo too? Crazy!

SunnyFlover · 07/11/2019 14:59

@VCP88 now I am just feeling a bit silly for eating so much money in the "better" digital clear blue tests that here cost 15 euro each... and they are so unreliable! ( 3 times less sensitive than FR ER test) 🤯
If you are 21DPO too- don't stress, it may still not show up for a few days, I was reading yesterday, the HCG levels can vary from person to person and sometimes it may fail to be picked up before 6 weeks or even later !

VCP88 · 07/11/2019 15:45

So depending on when I actually ovulated (still do t really know), I think I'm 13DPO. Saving my morning wee tomorrow and hoping!!!
