Hi everyone! I am new to this site and I'm honestly not really sure exactly how all this works. I'll start off by saying that my fiance and I are currently ttc. It'll be my third and his second. I normally have 30-31 day cycles. I am currently 5 days late with no sign of my period coming at all. Usually 2 weeks before it arrives my boobs will be so sore and swollen that I can barely stand to wear a shirt, I get moody and cramp like there's no tomorrow. I've been late once in the past year, and it was caused by stress and I was only late by 2 days. I'm not under any stress nor have I had any major weight loss or weight gain. I have been keeping track of my periods and the expected O dates. I am currently 19 dpo. I know I O'd because I had slight cramps and a little spotting when it was expected. I have taken 3 tests (dollar general brand). I took the first on 14dpo, the second on 15dpo and the third on 17dpo, all of which came up bfn. I've been a little crampy here lately but nothing major like my period cramps. Also I've been really hungry here lately and have had a few slight food aversions. I have a hard time getting comfortable and I can't sleep for anything BUT I'm ALWAYS tired. My cervix has been almost steadily high and closed and right under my stomach has been extremely firm. I have no idea what exactly is going on with me. I found out I was pregnant with my daughter when I was 13 weeks along and found out with my son when I was only 3 weeks along. I'm hoping I am but am worried I'm giving myself false hope. My periods usually last about 8 days and I was supposed to start on June 14th so today would be my 5th scheduled day of my period but no sign at all. Somebody please help!

Hi! Not gonna lie, I did not read everything. Cramps can happen before, during, after, or unrelated to O so they shouldn't be used in isolation to judge O date. So the best advice I say is to take a quick temp in the morning. If it's over 98.2ish then I wouldn't expect af. Test again in two days? Will you doctor do a blood test this early? Never hurts to ask. =/ in any case FXed and keep us posted!
