4 days late, 17 days past ovulation

[cuteapye]

Hello all! I am a 22 year old female living with my boyfriend of 2.5 years. Throughout the course of our relationship we have used condoms and birth control. After we had been together for a while we stopped using birth control, so we've been having unprotected sex for about a year and a half. We've never had a pregnancy scare before, so I started to think maybe I just couldn't have kids. I started my period when I was ten, so my periods have been regular 31 day cycle for about 5 years now. Last month I got my normal pms symptoms like usual and when my bf I and I had sex I started bleeding, but it wasn't my period. I ended up starting 2 days later, and had a fairly normal period.

This month I was due to start my period on Jan 2nd, but it hasn't arrived yet. About a week before my expected AF I started getting cramps and bloating so I took some naproxen and wore a panty liner just in case. I had all of my normal pms symptoms; cramps, bloating, mood swings, sore breasts, etc. My bf and I had sex 01/04/13 thinking it would jump start my period like usual, but nothing! I've been sleeping a lot more than usual lately, and my eating habits have changed, but I've had a loss in appetite. I'm not using the bathroom any more frequently and I haven't had any morning sickness. I keep telling myself that AF is just around the corner as to not to get my hopes up, but something feels different, maybe it's just in my head . . . But any help/advice is greatly appreciated, I just need someone to keep me from thinking I'm crazy! Lol

Exactly the same for me! I came of BC in December, period due to arrive on the 3rd jan but nothing. Looking back I've been super tired, crampy & hungry like you wouldn't believe & this morning lo & behold I get my BFP! My son will be 18 months old when the new baby arrives aaaggghhh!!

Good luck, wishing u lots of baby dust! X

I'm in a similar situation! I'm 5 days late and have had 3 BFN. Went off BC in October and AF has been either 1-2 days late or early. I have sore bbs, a little dizzy, extremely hungry all the time starting today, hot flashes on and off and cramping on and off. Cp is high, soft and closed and I am having scant milky Cm. The earliest I've ever been able to get a BFP with my first 2 pregnancies was 5 days late. I have no idea what to think?! I will hopefully be able to hold off and test again Saturday?
