My period was due yesterday (I’m usually very regular and normally come on first thing in the morning), but nothing so far. I’ve had loads of symptoms this cycle, sore/darker nipples, bloating, vivid dreams, fatigue, basically everything that made me think “this is it.”
We tested Sunday morning and again today (first morning urine, using First Response), but both were negative. It’s left me feeling really flat and confused. Can symptoms be this strong and it still just be PMS? Or is there still a chance it’s too early for a positive?
I don’t want to keep wasting tests, but not knowing is driving me mad.
Has anyone else had strong symptoms, a late AF, but negative tests that eventually turned into a BFP? Or did AF just show up late?
Just need a bit of reassurance really, feeling very emotional today.
Tracking bits:
- Apple Watch wrist temp has stayed up (no luteal dip).
- Resting heart rate rose after ovulation and hasn’t dropped.
- Stopped drinking end of July (mentioning in case it affects cycles).
- On folic acid 5mg + vit D.
