Not TTC but am late???

[Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm]

Here's the thing, my last AF was from 14th to 18th May so by my claculations my Af should have started yesterday counting 28 days. It would be my 3rd Af since they started again (after having ds) and the last one came on day 27 so getting a bit edgy now. Could I be pregnant? Probably not... hmm, just can't stop thinking about it though but am too tight to buy a pregnancy test, will wait a few more days I think. Could just be my AF getting back in to a rhythm???

calculations...

Still no AF, not really got ang pg symptoms though. Last time I had tender breasts. Has anyone been pregnant once and had symptoms in the early stages then got pregnant again and had no symptoms in early stages or completely different symptoms?
Sure it'll turn up soon, think i'm just being paranoid

If you're not using any contraception then yes, you could be pg. I'm pg at the moment and I have a coil in place. I've used a coil for more than 10 years without problems so it is the most almighty shock.

If and when you go to the doc and say you've missed a period, the first thing they will ask is if you could be pg.

If you're too tight to spend a fiver on a pee-stick, you can get a test at your docs! I didn't want to waste money on one either

Well, we have been using condoms but occasionally have 'slipped it in' for a few 'thrusts' without it first .
The has been no ejaculation without a condom on iyswim, but then again, what i'm describing here is exactly how ds was concieved, why am i so stupid and careless?
Just to clarify, ds was very much wanted, he just turned up a few months early .
It wouldn't be a total disaster if i was pg but was planning a 2.3+ age gap, not a 16 and a half mo

(ds is 7 and a half mo)

I was planning a 3 year age gap and ended up with a 16 month age gap. Hope it arrives soon

orangehead - are you pg now or has the second lo been born?

No ds2 is now 5. Its daunting at first having a small age gap and hard work but I coped, and now its lovely they are 5 and 6 and they are best friends and play together all the time

So.. if I am it'll be very hard at first but good when they're older, yeah thats what i'm thinking.
I know it's selfish but the reasons i'm hoping i'm not are really petty, like the fact we wanted to finish decorating the house we've moved into before ds1 was born but we ran out of time and still haven't finished the bathroom and kitchen and now it's taking 10 times as long as it would have done before. If we had 2 we'd probably not get it done for ages! Another thing is, i'm trying to diet and get my body back in shape before the next one, all that would have to stop and i'd just get fatter! Then theres the fat I want to enjoy ds1 more before the next one turns up . If I am theres nothing I can do so should just shut up moaning really and get on and finish the house before number 2, just felt like I had to get all that out though.
Think i'm being a bit nurotic(sp?) and over reacting a bit, it's only 2 days late ffs!

Well regarding your dieting, I think being pregant is the best motivation for eating healthy (not dieting) because what you eating goes to baby. You can also do gentle exercising when pregant again good for the baby. When I found out I was preg with ds2 I was a size 16, I was never that big but all excess wight from ds1. I ate really healthy when preg with ds2 and did some gentle exercising everyday, I got really big bump wise but when I had him the weight just dropped off by 6 weeks check I was a size 10. Regarding the other things, yes your life does get put on hold for a bit but it is worth it

How long do you think I should wait before doing a test? I recon 5 days???

Now, I always did one on the day my period due and it always showed up. You could buy a double pack incase it negative and you still dont come on in 5 days

Phew! Panick over. AF just arrived I think this is a remoinder to me to be more carefull from now on until I actually decide to ttc. Thanks for the advice ladies

Im glad
