So confused - 12 DPO

[CrazyCatLady75340]

Soo.. sorry, it's a long one.

I'm 12 DPO and on 8 DPO I had this strange jab in the bottom left of my abdomen. It literally took my breath away and it was pretty painful for a split second then just tender after.
9DPO I felt fine
10 DPO I had a serious number of symptoms kick in, mainly back ache, nausea, tightness in my stomach and a bit of spotting which I've had on and off since. (None of these symptoms are normal for me with AF).

But yes, you've guessed it.. BFN.

AF is due on Friday and I understand that it can take a while to show up on a test, but surely if I take the symptoms I had at 10 DPO, if I was pregnant then there would have been time for this to show up on a test by now?

I'm getting impatient and starting to question myself. I was so sure I was pregnant when it all started kicking off on Monday and I was so excited, but now I feel so deflated with the negative tests and spotting (which still hasn't stopped) that I could cry.

I know I'm not out out yet, but surely it's unlikely now?!

Following this. As I am in the exact same boat OP. I've convinced myself also with all my symptoms but as someone else has told me on here, put the test down and wait until your AF is late, that is what I'm doing now and I'm due on 3rd or 5th October.

It's so deflating testing and it's BFN when in fact it could just be too early!

Hey @Pugmumm fingers crossed for you! I've read these threads for so long and know exactly what the advice would be, but I can't help but put how I'm feeling down in writing because I can't talk to anyone about it in real life (including my husband as he'll just think I'm mental!)

The symptoms I've had since Monday have been unreal, so I'm just so confused about how it's not yet reflected on a test.

Keep me updated with how you get on!

Good luck to you also @CrazyCatLady75340 but I must say your symptoms sound promising!!

Try to keep it together (rich) but I've tried opening a book as soon as I finish work or shoving something on Netflix to keep me occupied and stay away from the dreaded YouTube videos- there are so many of them!

Also can't talk to my Partner as he'll think I'm being silly and don't want to worry him by telling him how obsessive I am over this.

There are a lot of people here in the same situation so I'm sure you'll get some more advice.

Good luck and keep positive, please let me know how you get on 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Joining in because literally SAME!!!

DTD plenty this month and at the right times, felt the jabby sensation on Sat (supposedly 8/9 DPO), had horrible lower back ache Sun (like half a day). Have been having a bit of a heavy / full / crampy feeling in my stomach but no other symptoms and literally felt so hopeful and was sure this was out month! BUT BFNs every single day since Monday - and that’s on FRERs, I can’t even use the excuse that I’ve used some not very sensitive cheapies. I should be about 12/13 DPO today. AF due Fri. I hate this with passion.

Btw felt so deflated yesterday, had a good cry and a glass of wine. Don’t know if that would help anyone else but it worked for me lol 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you @Pugmumm I agree I definitely need a distraction!

@Danani I've been speaking to you on another thread and we sound so similar. Was hoping it was just because I was using crappy tests but FRER this afternoon with some wee I'd saved (I couldn't help it and they weren't delivered until 17:00) and still BFN, so I completely understand how you feel.

Not a hint of a line and due on Friday too.

I could have written your symptoms and how you're feeling, minus the wine.

Big love xx
