We've been trying for a baby for 2 years. I was due on on the 8th but still no sign. I have sore boobs, cramping and pains on the right side, itching all over especially my boobs and legs and more tired than normal.
I darent do a test yet as don't want to get my hopes up to then have my heart broken again but I can't stop thinking bout it

OP can't believe how much willpower you have by not testing already! I would have done about three by now! Smile

Test test test!! I tested 4 days early with a poundshop cheapie and it was positive. The longer it goes on the more you'll get your hopes up and if its sadly not you'll be more upset. Let us know how it goes. I know how u feel tho, you dread the disappointment by testing but at least then you'll know for sure xx

Why wait? If you are late, then if you are pg it will show on the stick.

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 12/05/2013 09:29

It's totally up to you but I do know (from a friend's experience) that the disappointment after being able to "pretend" for a little bit was probably worse due to the delay

Hope all goes well though and you get a BFP

I tested 5 days BEFORE my period was due and got a positive so I'm not sure why you feel you need to wait so long?!

You also do not need to wait for morning pee - anytime is fine!

Don't torture yourself - go and test and see what it says. There's no need to out yourself through more angst! Good luck!

God - I really admire your patience. I would recommend getting a First Response early Response (frer) test or a clear Blue Digital the FRER has always worked for me from 3 days before period due and the clearblue from day period due. They will deffo work now and very accurate

It's up to you but I do t think the mental torture if waiting 4 days is worth it.

Good luck, can't believe you're being so patient, I couldn't not test, got my bfp 2 days before my period was due.

Just go an get a pound shop one today and get it over with! If you're 4 days late and pregnant, even a cheapie test should be positive by now. Good luck x

Hi thx for replies first can I ask what
POAS, BFP, and OP means please only joined Friday and not used to short hand lol.
Today is what should be the last day of my period and still no show but still having the uncomfortable feelings below my stomach, they don't feel like period pains and I don't feel like my period is due as I usually feel swollen and tender down below. Not done a test yet as my fiance says not to rush that I might just be late, I know he doesn't want me to get my hopes up but it's driving me mad waking up everyday and not knowing. I've ordered a test on eBay told him I'm gonna do it when it comes so by then I'll probably be a week late

Fingers crossed for you OP!
