Am I overthinking?

I suspect the answer is that I am.

We aren't formally TTC but had a 'let's see what happens' moment the day before my fitbit thought I might ovulate. I know the fitbit isn't accurate in predicting this! This was 2 and a half weeks ago.

I'm only two days late for my period as of today and no sign yet of a bleed, despite some mild cramping over the last few days. This is so stupid, I know I should just get a test but I feel like that will raise mine and DP's hopes?

But I've got blue cheese planned in tonight's dinner so maybe I should check anyway? Also I've been having morning coffee like normal and decided to have a few drinks during the festive period. So am a little terrified that I might be pregnant but have done some damage :(

I'm really sorry, I have no idea what I'm after.

If you're 2 days late then it would be worth getting a test so you know where you stand - if you were only 7 DPO or not late on yet I'd probably advise waiting a bit. Best of luck whatever you decide to do!

If being 2 days late is unusual for you, I'd get a test. Don't overthink about what you've eaten and drank in the meantime - you and baby (if you are pregnant) will be fine :).

Thank you both! Will get a test as soon as I can get away from work. Will try not to worry about the alcohol and caffeine (and cured meats and stilton 😩) for now!

Get a test you know that's what you need to settle your mind.

Lots people don't even know they are pregnant at this stage, you will be fine. Caffeine is fine when pregnant as long as its not vast amounts.

Definitely get a test!
