AF is late!

So I’m a bit stressed, AF is 2 days late, it’s never late!

My cycle tends to range between 24-27 days never any less, never any more… I’ve got all sort of symptoms going on, mainly AF like symptoms but last week I’d had a heightened sense of smell (peanuts of all things!) to the point it was giving me headache because I can’t stand peanuts🙄😂

BUT, I did a test yesterday morning, BFN!!!!

Is it possible that a pregnancy test is still not picking anything up yet? (If I am pregnant that is) or is my body just having a massive laugh at me?😂

I want this so bad, we’ve been trying for about 7 months and we’re sooo ready for a baby!x

Hello OP,

I am in a similar position to you although slightly different circumstances.

I was on the pill until the 5th of last month but it was making me Unwell all the time and giving me 3 week long periods. So me and my partner agreed that we would be careful and I would stop taking the pill.
According to Flo AF was due on Monday however I have never been regular and so not been expecting it to appear on time. However, since Monday I have had the most awful nausea and I even threw up last night. I also walked into the kitchen on Monday and my housemate had cooked eggs. The smell was awful and I had to run to the bathroom before I was sick.
Have done 4 tests now (2 yesterday & 2 today) and they have al come back negative.

I have just contacted my doctors and that have told me to keep on testing every couple of days and if my the middle of next week AF has not arrived and I have still got symptoms but no positive test then they will do some blood tests.
Here if you need to talk

@Gillseybear oh no! That’s awful, I’ve not really felt nauseous tbh!

I’m honestly so stressed about it, I’m hoping it’s not my body playing tricks on me but I can’t help but think it is.

I really keep feeling like AF is coming, like I literally feel like I’m bleeding but when I check, there’s nothing, underwear is dry! It’s so bizarre to me😬

I hope you get some answers very soon, keep me updated!x

@Chlo1995 I know exactly what you mean it's such a nervous place to be as not sure what to think. Just hoping it figures itself out soon because I feel like shit right now.

Yeah when I had my two previous MC's the nausea was the first symptom that I got. Plus when I PMS I never get nausea. Am super worried that it's a phantom pregnancy or my body playing tricks on. I just want answers but it's a waiting game at the moment.

@Gillseybear I’ve had a bit of a strange afternoon tbh, I’ve bled, not bad but heavy enough! Have the worst cramps and now the bleeding seems to have stopped, I’m so confused!

Hi OP

Some people take a few days to get a positive test so it's not over until the witch arrives.

On the other hand our bodies can be incredibly cruel. I've bee TTC for a while (suffered a mis miscarriage earlier this year). I was noting down my symptoms each month and realised my body plays evil tricks.

I'm also one day late, I've had intermittent stabbing pain to one side and then all over. I'm away so can't test

Chlo1995 · 09/12/2021 22:20

@SomeoneSomewhere1219 oh bless you! It’s so hard when it’s something you want so bad and think it’s finally happening, all for your body to just have a massive laugh at you!

I can’t help but think it’s probably just not the right time for me and my partner, we started trying after we’d put an offer in on our house and have had a ton of stress with it taking so long to go through (9 months!😬) we finally got our keys about 4 weeks ago so obviously there’s been a lot going on with wanting to get the house in a nice state! Just can’t help but think that my body isn’t letting me be pregnant because there’s so much going on… I don’t know, maybe soon it’ll happen for us!

Hope you get the outcome you want, I’ll have my fingers crossed for you x

Any update?
I'm 2 weeks late for AF!
Sooo many symptoms which could be pregnancy OR period, ugh.
Negative pregnancy tests. So confused.
Good luck ladies❤️

Chlo1995 · 11/12/2021 10:52

Hi @CannieWilks AF arrive this morning, I’m gutted!
If you’re two weeks let definitely go see a doctor, could be anything.

Good luck to you!x
