Negative test but no red witch yet

29 replies

Tryingagin49 · 26/10/2025 21:33

For the. First time in a long time I made sure we had a cuddle before during and after positive opk. Think I ovulated around CD11 which is what it always was. Had very light spotting 12/13/14/15dpo which would be CD23/24/25/26 & my cycles are usually 26 or 27 days. Last month no spotting but just a. Heavy flow on CD27. I was in town yesterday and got a 6 day early clear blue digital test. Was feeling pretty negative but just because I knew we had BD at the right time thought I'd try it. Tested last night which was CD26 but test said 'not pregnant'. CD27 now and no spotting at all all day. Surely the 6 day early test would be right. But just feel like no period or no spotting today is making me think/ HOPE I could be pregnant. I know I'll probably get the red witch tomorrow but 28 days is a bit long. Usually 27 max
What do you think?

I think there's a better topic for this.

Have you posted this in the wrong place?

You are being unreasonable to refer to sex as a cuddle 😂

Motnight · 26/10/2025 21:39

You don't get pregnant from cuddling.

Bagsintheboot · 26/10/2025 21:42

I made sure we had a cuddle

No wonder the pregnancy test is negative then. Try having sex!

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 26/10/2025 21:45

Cuddling doesn't result in pregnancy.
And why did to post this in AIBU?

Oh, God.

I read that wondering what difference cuddling would make.

I didn't realise she meant a 'special.cuddle' 😅

Nor do I have any idea what opk, dpo, BD or CD mean despite having had 2 children.

I worked out what the red witch was but wtf.

‘Red witch’?

Oh gosh, I thought she actually meant a cuddle and wondered if there was a theory that affection improves ovulation!

🤣 same!

Upsetbetty · 26/10/2025 21:48

Red witch?? Cuddle? Wtf!?

Summerboozing · 26/10/2025 21:49

Maybe wait till you've actually missed your period (sorry if the term is too graphic!).

TheatricalLife · 26/10/2025 21:49

Nobody can tell you unfortunately OP. You just really have to wait and see. Periods can do weird things due to any number of things from stress to illness to hormone problems. You could also be pregnant. It's a wait and see situation. I really hope you get a positive soon.

Actually, I'm curious now if anyone else does know...

BlueSlate · 26/10/2025 21:51

X post! Thanks.

Thanks for answering OP’s question seriously. The tone of her post and posting in AIBU means she won’t be taken seriously so it’s nice of you to bring attention back to the actual intention behind the thread.

Yes, we seem to have a very coy OP here.

Maybe she really did just cuddle her husband, which is why her pregnancy tests are all negative.

Didimum · 26/10/2025 21:53

No one can tell you if you’re pregnant, OP. We aren’t pregnancy tests.

BD Baby Dance (another form of cuddling 🤮)

WTF??

Adult women actually speak like that? Good grief.

No idea either, why do some people make everything so complicated

KimMumsnet · 26/10/2025 21:54

Hi, OP. We've moved your thread over to our Conception board now. Good luck with TTC!

I know, it's tragic.

You should read the conception board on here. The coy leading the coy.

Tbf, anyone using the term 'Baby Dance' or 'cuddle' when they mean sex deserves to have the piss taken out of them 🤷🏻‍♀️

I would also goes as far as to say that anyone using those terms shouldn’t be trying for a baby…comes across as very immature!
