Just wanted somewhere to share my anxieties really! Last month's cycle I had very, very tender breasts in the 2ww and Montgomery tubercles could be seen. I don't usually have any noticeable breast pain pre period, but last month they hurt and were tender for about 4 days. I had a short heavy period of 2 days. I think I was pregnant and miscarried.
This cycle, used OPK sticks to predict ovulation and had plenty of sex around that time. I haven't noticed any symptoms like last month. I tested once with a FRER at 9dpo I think, and it was negative.
My AF is due tomorrow/Tuesday so will find out for sure if it's worked this time! Anyone else testing tomorrow/waiting for AF?
Anyone else had similar symptoms?

Just to add I had to Google 'lumps on nipple pregnant' to find out what the hell was going on with my boobs I'd never heard of tubercles before!

Tested with CB and it came up negative but no period yet. Confused.
And talking into the ether it would seem!

Okay, firstly you mean you think you had a chemical pregnancy. Missed misscarriage is where the baby/fetus dies but your body doesn't realise so keeps building up HCG, keeps acting pregnant, no period. Chemical pregnancy is a v early misscarriage where the pregnancy lasts a couple of weeks then a period.

Last month, did you test positive?

In the 2WW there is no such thing as pregnancy symptoms. All symptoms are caused by progesterone which rises if you are pregnant and if you are not. On different months, that rise can be stronger or less strong, creating more or less strong symptoms. After the 2ww, if pregnant, HCG increases create symptoms. Id advise you not to think too hard about symptoms on the 2ww - advice is usually if there's enough HCG to get specific symptoms, there's enough to test positive
