8-9dpo BFN but weird symptoms, anyone else?

I’m 8-9dpo based on previous cycles. Small chance I could be 7dpo as did not track.

48hrs ago (6-7dpo) I had cramps that were quite sharp and twinging at one side. I woke up yesterday morning and did a FRER, that was BFN.

Today I did a boots HCG strip which I think is far less sensitive and than a FRER and that was also 100% negative. Wasn’t FMU though
I’ve been getting cramps on and off, feeling more emotional than usual and strangely I’m really breathless after doing simple things. This is a new thing for me!

Is this too early to test still? See lots of people testing at this point and getting positives so was curious. Thanks!

Ooooo @happyfeet5 this seems good! As the other tester says, wait a few more days and then retest xxx

@ChocChipPancake @Floralsandsmiles thank you! I will. The breathlessness is really strange- do you know what this could be?! I just feel so tired and heavy. I walked from my car to the shops earlier and felt exhausted by the time I’d got in. I was fine yesterday! Might just be a coincidence in fairness but it was a strange feeling.

I haven't heard of this before, or in all my research, but that doesn't mean its not sign! Keep us posted xxx

Some people just don't get a positive until later. On my first I didn't have a very faint line until 1 day after AF was due and took another 48 to get a strong positive which would have been around CD31. Good luck.

Update… can’t believe it (not an ident I don’t think as there is very faint colour to it)
