Me and my partner had unprotected sex one day post 'ovulation day'.. Although we are not officially trying we would be delighted at the news of a little one. x

A few days after having unprotected sex my skin (particularly around my chin area) has totally broken out. like teenager acne breakout that I cant shift with any amount of skin care!

I've also had a constant pain in my lower back that has no explainable cause. I feel like i have just had an ongoing flu like sickness.. feeling dizzy and spells of feeling too hot and just general tiredness and irritable.

Am i imagining things or should I be buying tests if aunt flow doesnt arrive on friday when shes due?

It certainly wouldn't hurt to test of AF ends up being late!

I've only ever suffered lower bk pain when pregnant with ds I had bk pain but didnt realise why for a while but with dd I knew straight away cos got the bk pain again so done test straight away and was about 5 weeks pregnant.

Chin spots are generally hormone related (I get them every month), if this is not usual for you to get them... then I def would consider this an early pregnancy symptom.

I do get a bit of chin spots during AF. But this is on another level and totally out of the blue

Might be worth testing if you're late! Chin spots are definitely hormone related. I'm in the same boat right now too, also due AF on Friday. I have awful spots on my chin, the type that are really deep under the skin Confused and usually by now I have really sore boobs but I currently have no AF symptoms at all! Have also been getting stomach cramps and back pain which are unusual for me. I hope you get the result you want! Smile

This makes me hopeful. I don't usually get spots with AF, but currently sporting a rather large and angry red one on my chin. Also have lower back pain and I feel so bloated, like I drank 10L of water.

Did 1 CBD test and it was a BFP, but all since have been BFN. AF due today, praying to get through this week without bleeding so I can stop believing this is a CP.

Retested this morning 1 day after AF was due. Got 2 BFP!
