According to two different apps I'm 3 days late. If I'm honest I completely forgot it was even supposed to be my time of the month right now as I have had NO af symptoms whatsoever. I usually cramp a lot and get back ache the week leading up to af which is usually bang on time (only other time I've been late is when I was pregnant but that ended in miscarriage sadly). I did a test yesterday and it was bfn. I don't particularly have any pregnancy symptoms either so I'm confused. Only thing different this month is I feel very wet down there, thinking I've come on but it's just loads of cm. Anyone else been in this position? I hate limbo.

@Littlepeas2 am now 8 days late. However I am in my mid 40s! So could be hormones anyway but am usually v regular 28 days . Sometimes 30 sometimes 25-26

I’ve had 4 pregnancies and sometimes I feel some symptoms and sometimes not ! I can never remember before how soon things started as first time I didn’t realise till I started feeling sick at 6 weeks .. My last pregnancy (9 years ago) I suddenly felt pregnant at about 12 dpo

So - weird! Prob just my hormones ! X

Oh no! Are you going to test anymore? I have just tested with a FRER and it was negative so I really just need to come on now so I can start again!!

Mrskcam · 02/04/2020 20:33

Hi all still no af for me. As I was saying yesterday I'm hoping I'm not pregnant just now as timing wouldn't be great but we aren't preventing just aren't trying if you get me?

I work in a hospital so think I'm late from stress, I've hardly been sleeping in the nights before going to work I'm so anxious as the situation in work isn't too great and I have asthma and have had 2 nasty chest infections in the last 4 weeks!

@Mrskcam I hope if AF is going to show for you she does soon. I cant imagine that stress alone, with this added on top!

Still no sign of AF or anything else for me (5 days late from expected/3 days late from longest cycle). I took another test yesterday but still negative. As much as I'd love a bfp generally, it doesnt really feel like the best time to be visiting the doctors so I've been hoping AF would just show up already. I started wondering if being secluded from women and hanging out with a guy all day every day might be throwing our cycles off. I guess if it hasnt started by next week I'll see what my doctor thinks?

Hi Everyone, I hope you don't mind me joining! I'm looking for some wisdom!

I'm using Flo to track my periods and according to it I'm currently 9 days late on CD43 (however my longest cycle has been 44 days). All tests have been negative to date. I'm starting to wonder if it's just the stress of everything that is going on in the world at the moment.

This is the first proper month that my husband and I have actively tried since I came off Microgynon in August 2019. My periods have been a bit irregular (44, 36, 27, 30, 34, 34 and now I'm on CD43). The only symptoms I have are bloated belly,, a creamy discharge for the last week and also needing to wee a fair bit over the last couple of weeks.

I've taken 3 pregnancy tests including today and all are negative. I think it's pretty unlikely that I'm pregnant as surely I would have got a positive by now? The last time we DTD was CD30 so is it even possible...When should I give up hope for this cycle entirely?! I feel I'm going a little bit crazy!

Mrskcam · 03/04/2020 20:00

Weird thing happened today, in work and had a really sore tummy, went to the toilet and a huge clot fell out, like size of my hand and nothing else .. got some cramps now so hoping I'm just gonna finish af after that (reminded me of my miscarriage so maybe very early miscarriage?) anyway hope I'm back to normal soon.

How's everyone else?

Hi all. - got my period yesterday and v clotty too !

jules5232 · 05/04/2020 16:16

Still no luck here yet either. I keep hoping today will be the day AF starts! I had some spotting 2 days ago (which normally happens for me the day before) but still nothing. I keep getting slight cramping like it's about to start but maybe today.

Littlepeas2 · 05/04/2020 22:15

Hey @jules5232 do you mind be asking how many days late you are? I’m 5 days late with clear BFN this morning and I really don’t know what’s going on. It’s quite reassuring to know it’s not just me!

jules5232 · 05/04/2020 23:54

@Littlepeas2 today is 7 days. I dont know if your area is on stay at home orders, but mine is. I wonder if the change of routine is affecting a lot of us. I dont track my ovulation more than just watching my CM, so I guess I could have ovulated late, but it still should have started by now based on it. Do you have any symptoms at all?

Littlepeas2 · 06/04/2020 09:13

I’m exactly the same as you. I just track using cm so I was pretty sure I ovulated but obviously can’t tell 100%. I’m on cycle day 42! Nope I don’t have any symptoms for AF or pregnancy. Do you?

jules5232 · 06/04/2020 12:23

Weird! Today is cycle date 38 for me. I'm normally 28-30 and 33 is the latest I've ever been that I know of. I had the tiniest bit of spotting 3 days ago and some mild cramps that I thought would mean the start of AF was the next day, but been waiting since.

marshallrubblechaserockyzoomer · 06/04/2020 16:39

I had this last month. She came eventually, along with many many BFN pregnancy tests

jules5232 · 06/04/2020 17:15

@marshallrubblechaserockyzoomerh Yeah, I totally get that. I gave myself two tests, one kinda early because I was curious then one once I was late. I cant imagine I'll test again unless it goes a couple more weeks or I start having a lot more symptoms. Cant afford that and the world's just too weird right now, I cant blame my body for being freaked out too! Haha

Littlepeas2 · 06/04/2020 19:34

@jules5232 I am the same! I have tested a few days before I was due and then when I was late. No more testing for me now. Just would like my cycle to return to normal soon!!
