Help - symptoms but bfn 4 days before AF due

[1111hope]

Hi all - I’m due on my AF on 1st but since yesterday I’ve had heart burn, nauseas and gone off my food, I’m over tired and got slight cramps in my abdomen. I don’t have the usual pms achy boobs etc just unbelievably hungry for plain food too. We sadly had a mmc on 1st Nov and after hearing how fertile you after afterwards I’m rly gutted. Can pms make you feel this way as it never has before? And I’d expect to see a bfp now on a 30 day cycle (on day 27) I had one 6 days before my missed period last time. Any advice or thoughts or experiences welcome.

How many dpo are you? I’ve had symptoms from 8 dpo before but negative until 11 or 12 dpo.

@Pollywoddles i don’t track ovulation properly my app just tells me when it expects me to so I can’t definitely say I had ovulation symptoms around 11 days ago so think it would show by now

So let’s say if you had ovulation symptoms 11 days ago you could only be 10 dpo. I never had a positive that early so wait a couple of days and try again. I hope you get a positive and sorry about your loss.

@Pollywoddles thanks lovely I hope you are right! Will keep you updated xx

Can pms make you feel this way as it never has before?

In short, yes. Progesterone levels rise and peak leading up to your period. If your pregnant it continues to rise.

Thus pregnant and non-pregnant women, can experience same symptoms and no symptoms at all.

@Pollywoddles you were right!! 2 days before AF due

@1111hope Woohoo!! Delighted for you, congratulations. I hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months 🙂

@Pollywoddles thank you so much!! Xx
