What is going on?!

I am currently 6 days late with no symptoms of AF arriving. I'm pretty sure I have a UTI atm with running back and forth to the bathroom.

I have done a test today and it's showing as negative. 😞

Am I out for this month? It's so frustrating not knowing. I'd rather AF just arrive so I can start again.

that was one of my first symptoms with previous pregnancy. i was certain i had a UTI i sent dh to the chemist to try and find something to help it, i didnt test positive for around a week after, saying that im not sure when af was due as they're not regular. Your not out until AF arrives remember

Thanks for the reply!
It's hard waiting when you just want to know what is happening to your body, just feel like giving up this month lol
I'll wait another week and if AF doesn't turn up I'll do another test.

I'm 2 days late now and I'm the same. I KNOW when my period is coming, like I just have that feeling and before it fully starts I always get reddish spotting the previous night. Had nothing and no symptoms like I usually get with AF on her way.

I have tested with a ClearBlue, middle of the day yesterday and didn't hold my wee so probably not the best idea, it came back Negative. However I've been needing a wee a lot and if I hold it for any longer than 10-20 minutes, when I do go it feels like a UTI starting up. My boobs haven't been sore but very itchy which isn't the norm, I've been very tired- like I could sleep for houuurs and I'd still need a nap in the day, little patience and emotional. I'm crying over little things. Oh and lots of twinges in my stomach, not painful but very much there.

I've been told if I'm pregnant it would show up on a test for definite by now but it's interesting to hear that some people don't get a BFP until many days after a missed period.🌸

Our bodies really do work in weird ways!
I hope you get the result you are looking for soon! ❤️

I'm now 4 days late, still no sign of her. My body doesn't feel like AF is even slightly on her way. I haven't tested since as been busy at work but wondered how you're getting on too @FrostyT

@anon1411 hi lovely! It's good that you've been keeping yourself busy! My brain has been going into over drive with wondering why my AF is MIA 🤦🏼‍♀️ hahaha

I'm still 8 days late with no sign of AF. Going to do a test again on Sat morning if it still hasn't arrived. Starting to think I'm not pregnant and AF is just gone on holiday this month
