Does anyone get too scared to test or just me?

Or am I weird?

is currently 4 days late. I usually have 21-24 day cycles, on day 28 just now. Not had a cycle longer than 24 days since having my DD 3 years ago.

I don’t feel pregnant though. I’ve had implantation bleeding with all 3 pregnancies and nothing like that this time. I do have relatively symptomless first trimesters though (mild nausea and tiredness but nothing else).

I just can’t bring myself to test but everywhere on here I see people early testing and I’m late and have the fear to test. Is anyone else like this?

I did have bleeding at 5 weeks with my second pregnancy and I don’t know if this is the cause of my anxiety. Although everything turned out okay, I spent 3 weeks with no idea if I was still pregnant or had miscarried until I was able to get an early private scan at 8 weeks.

I’m the same hun - I’m definitely not an early tester. More of a bury my head in the sand and hope for the best lol

Prefer to just be perpetually late for as long as possible.

Currently holding off until Monday where there won’t be any doubt/ambiguity.

@Sunch glad it’s not just me!

What day are you on?

AF due on Monday - I’ll prob test then. Sitting on my hands is difficult but I’d rather wait than early test.

Youll be 5 days late today right if AF hasn’t shown up, I think it’s safe to test. Fingers crossed for you x

Yeah, I'm not an early tester either.

Both pregnancies I've been at least a week late before I've taken a test.

Good luck

OP, I think a test would be conclusive at this stage so might be worth getting it over with
