Hi ladies, so as the title says....I'm on CD 28 of a normally 27 day cycle. No AF, and no signs of her coming but as BFN on a wondfo which is 10mlu.
What's going on here lol
I'm never late, normally bang on time or sometimes a day early.
Help a girl out. 😂 has anyone went on to have a BFP later?
dreaminginvintage · 07/01/2023 20:43
@abbmebtdab sorry that i don’t have an answer for you but I’m in the same situation! AF is now 5 days late for me, BFN 2 days ago though (on Thursday). Never been more than 1 day late so this is very unusual. Been very uncomfortable with lower back ache and sore boobs for the last week, and brown spotting for last few days. No idea what’s going on so defo understand how you’re feeling!
Are you planning on doing another test tomorrow?
abbmebtdab · 07/01/2023 21:14
Thanks for replying! Iv got a box of 20 ICs so I'll be testing constantly until AF arrives or I get a second line 😂
My boobs have became tender today, nothing much though just a bit tender and I did notice on Thurs evening (TMI alert!) I had some strange discharge. Its was like snot! Iv never had that so of course I began googling and I found alot of women who had the same thing before a BFP so it's kept me positive!
When are u going to test again? Ur symptoms seem promising. How many DPO are you?
dreaminginvintage · 07/01/2023 22:27
@abbmebtdab i also had that snot like discharge around what I think was 6-7 dpo. I’m now 35dpo. I don’t know whether I should waste anymore tests to be honest, probably just an off cycle. Definitely feeling physically very strange though, wish I knew what was happening.
dreaminginvintage · 07/01/2023 22:31
Sorry meant to say cycle day 35 not 35dpo😅 so 19/20dpo.
abbmebtdab · 08/01/2023 13:14
Another for me this morning too! Some random pains/pinches in my lower stomach so thing AF may raise her ugly head soon!
Any changes/new symptoms today? @dreaminginvintage
dreaminginvintage · 08/01/2023 15:57
@abbmebtdab same for me. Lots of lower back aches still. I did another test because I thought I could see a faint line on the first, attached it here. The first test the line must’ve come up after the time frame, but this one came up within a minute. It’s so so faint and not even sure there’s any colour though.. opinions? Will do another tomorrow anyway.

abbmebtdab · 08/01/2023 20:27
@dreaminginvintage I can't see much but it's not very zoom in. Mine are full on neg and cervix is low today so reckon AF is on her way
OnNaturesCourse · 08/01/2023 23:15
Can I join...
I'm CD 30, 15 DPO roughly.
One faint positive on FRER but it came up after 10 mins, done about 6 days ago. Nothing on CB 4 days ago. IC showing negative 4 days ago too.
I've been progressively more nauseated since Monday, GP has even given me meds for suspected reflux as I'm so poorly with it. Boobs suddenly swollen today, and horrible back ache. My pelvic area has felt stabby for a few days. From what I can tell my cervix is high still as I can't feel it. No brown discharge that I usually get for a day or so before AF.
My cycles are usually between 28 & 30 days, but going by when I think I ovulated (discharge etc) I should be on a 28 cycle month.
We aren't trying, I got my dates muddled and ended up DTD at the wrong time. But we are planning to try by this time next year so it would be a early happy surprise if I am.
abbmebtdab · 09/01/2023 09:54
@OnNaturesCourse are you going to test again soon? A faint on a FRER sounds positive! You should get a good line now if its been a few days.
Iv started spotting slightly today, just pinkish when I wiped after a wee and some brown the next time. Cramping top so reckon this is AF arriving.
How are you getting on @dreaminginvintage
Anything new to report?? 😂
OnNaturesCourse · 09/01/2023 10:01
I've just ordered more tests today so no doubt AF will arrive now I've spent more money.
My FRER was tossed in the bin and over 12 hours later I noticed it had two clear lines on it despite it being negative after 3 mins when first done. I would have thought the clear blue early test would have picked anything up as it was done later but who knows.
Sending lots of luck and baby dust to everyone waiting xx
dreaminginvintage · 09/01/2023 12:17
@abbmebtdab finally got AF today with full force. Very strange cycle though. Typical to have regular normal cycles until the month we start TTC🙃at least I’m no longer in limbo. I had the same symptoms as you’re getting now, but for much much longer than i usually would before my period!
OnNaturesCourse · 09/01/2023 19:39
BFN on clear blue tonight.
Actually kinda gutted.
Confused as to why I feel so nauseated all the time too. Maybe got a tummy bug thats lingering and delaying AF.
Rosie250 · 09/01/2023 21:17
Also in the same boat as you all.. TTC cycle #5, tested 12dpo negative and also today at 14dpo.. now 1 day late for AF. My boobs have been sore literally every day since I ovulated. Not sure what is going on with my body which is frustrating but at this point welcoming AF so we can be closer to trying for next month! Im pretty sure I did ovulate on CD16 as I got a peak obk and also a clear and sustained temp shift. Any advice welcome please as I’m driving myself crazy I think!
OnNaturesCourse · 11/01/2023 13:51
@Rosie250 Hi!
How are you getting on?
I thought AF showed up yesterday but I got nothing but brown discharge, which went away over the day. Bit more this morning on wiping but no proper AF so I'm very confused.
Rosie250 · 11/01/2023 20:54
AF arrived today, onwards and upwards onto this next month and fingers crossed a BFP!
have you taken another pregnancy test today?
anon1411 · 13/02/2023 21:08
How did you get on @abbmebtdab .
I'm currently 6 days late, BFN 3 days ago. No sign of AF whatsoever and alot of cramping, backache and tummy twinges. Also had waves of nausea today which is new.

I was 6 days late before I got my BFP! DS is now 7yo.
@Shmithecat2 hello! I was just wondering if you had any symptoms before your BFP 6 days late and whether that was odd for you - being late or did you have irregular cycles?
I ask as I’m regular cycles and AF should have arrived today but it hasn’t - I normally spot in the lead up and have horrendous pains too but there’s been nothing which is very strange! All my tests are BFN xx

I was 6 days late before I got my BFP! DS is now 7yo.
I was fairly regular - 26 to 28 day cycles. Didn't have any symptoms as such other than what I thought was standard low pain PMS cramps.
