7 days late, no AF, BFN 3 days ago, lots of pregnancy symptoms!!! :0)

[Mum_and_Baloo]

Hello All and thank you for reading my post!! :0)

I am super new to this site! I read the forums all the time but never registered until today and Im super excited to share and help others on this site!!

Well here is my story.... ANY advice and support would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

Timeline:
Last AF: Jan 31-Feb 5
OVULATED: Feb 11-16 (if my math is correct)
Spotted brown/clear/pink very little on the toilet paper off and on Feb 28-Mar2 (possible implantation bleeding???) then once March 6th (sorry TMI)
AF suppose to arrive: March 01 but hasnt shown up - just spotted
Took a HPT on March 6 and came up with a BFN :0(
Now 7 days late!!!! with no sign of AF!!!!!

Symptoms:
- I am super tired
- Nipples are sensitive. Sometimes it feels like they are leaking but when I look down I dont see anything. They have been sticking out more than usual and all the time.
- breasts are tender
- bloated.... some of my jeans dont fit anymore
- I have broken out slightly around my chest, back and shoulder areas
- headaches and back pain are quite frequent
- I get nauses after every meal like clockwork
- I have shortness of breath and my heart beats like crazy sometimes. (ex. walking up stairs, walking from one room to another, etc.)
- I have lots of CM as if I was ovulating again. (sorry tmi)
- my temp is higher than normal
- Minor cramps but nothing major
- Sometimes it feels like AF has come full force and when I go to the bathroom and wipe its CM.... no af! (sorry again... TMI)

I think that its possible to "imagine" some of these symptoms because DB and I have been TTC for 10 years off and on. We have recently stopped with the thought that when the time is right than it will come Now that this is a possibility.... I am loosing my mind!!! Is there any hope???

I am not on BC and have regular cycles of 28/29

Has anyone else experienced this??? or something similar??? I would love to hear your experiences!!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

No helpful **

 

[Mum_and_Baloo]

Thank you so much Brooke!!!!! Have you ever experienced this Brooke??? I hope you get your BFP soon too!!! I am terrified to test.... I dont want to see another BFN again... I might break down and go to a clinic tomorrow. When I tested on the 6th it wasnt FMU.... I couldnt sleep and I finally broke down at 5am (after not being able to sleep) and took the test but it was BFN

 

[Brookegarrett]

I have symptoms alot of months but I figure it's myself wishin do much to be pregnant... I am 13 dpo and am nauseated and increased appetite.. No signs of AF but who knows.. I always cave I've been Testing since 6 dpo lol! I have slow rosin pregnancy hormones so If I get a bfp it's usually laaaate.. But I am always so eager to test but heartbroken to see a bfn .. Idk y I torture myself.. I definitely understand not wanting to deal with the disappointment.. I wish u tons of luck tho!!

 

[Mum_and_Baloo]

Im so excited for you!!!! I hope you get your BFP soon!!! How far along are you before you get your BFP before?? When I concieved my son I didnt even notice that i missed my period lol I went to the doctors and took a test that confirmed pregnancy at 9 weeks!!

Wish you the best of luck!!!

Big Hugs!!

Mum_and_Baloo - so sorry that your body isnt giving you straight forward answers. If you normally have regular cycles and are this late, I would highly suggest visiting the doctors for some bloodwork/opinion. In very rare cases (I had a friend who was one of those) some womens pregnancies, begin with low levels of HCG and or the process of HCG moving from blood to urine is slower....which can greatly delay you ability to pick up a positive on a HPT...but doesnt mean you are not pregnant. I wish I could just say "Yes, you are pregnant!", but I can't...... but I think a great start would be the doctors.

 

[Mum_and_Baloo]

Thank you so very much ThinkPositiv for your support and help!!!

I am not sure on what to do. I want to go to the doctors and get a test but I would be over the moon embarassed if the test was BFN! I think that is what is holding me back lol Another thing would be if it did come back negitive.... what in the world could be wrong?!?!

My breasts are swollen... by bra is leaving almost like imprints in my breasts (too small now??)

I am so confused! I really dont want to see another BFN

 

[justmeinlove]

Well don't be embarrassed if it comes out negative. Just go to the Dr and say 'look, my AF is over a week late, and I'm wondering why that is - presumably it's either pregnancy or something else - if it's pregnancy I'd like you to confirm it for me, and if it's not, I'd like some support on why it's happening'.
It's a very reasonable question.
HUGS!

Sounds very promising to me hun, either try testing again yourself or go to doctors as others have said and see for sure Good luck!

 

[ThinkPositiv]

I agree with justmeinlove.... if AF doesnt arrive in the next day or 2 there is no shame in going to the doctors. you have to be the advocate for your health because no one else will be. keep us posted

 

[Mum_and_Baloo]

Thank you so much Satin and justmeinlove for your responces and your support!!!

I think that if AF doesnt show up by tomorrow I am going to go in and get tested tomorrow. I should have enough hormones to be detected by then.... shouldnt I???? I sure hope so!

What else could cause your nipples to always be sticking out more than usual?!? Have any ideas???

 

[Brookegarrett]

Well with my last pregnancy it was twins and I didn't get a positive until 4 days after AF was due.. So im just patiently waiting.. With first child, I was in HS and was in denial so when I finally took a test it was blaring bfp bc I was 9 wks preggo.. Fx for some answers for u soon!!

 

[magic_angel]

Hi, i got a little freaked out there for a second lol, i thought i was reading something i put up as i am exactly the same as you..... meaning.....

last af was 31.jan-5.feb
predicted ov on 2 sites were as follows, fertility friend said 12-16 fertile time and other site said 13-18th fertile time so i bd from 11th to 19th just to make sure,
I had one day spotting on the 15th (which I HAVE NEVER HAD IN BETWEEN AF'S)
for over 12 years my af has been all over the place at 45-65 days but over the past 8 months af has regulated and come around every 30 days without fail.
Af was due 1st of march but im late, im now on cd 38/30 day cycle and 19 days past ov, cramping like HELL on my right side and right lower back and twinges in right side when im not cramping.... im in pain as im typing to you, its been happening all day without a break so im pretty tender right now.... I know my period pains like the back of my hand and i usually get them 3 days before af starts and really sore boobs but these pains are nothing like af pains.... boobs are fine, Hpks are all neg, but i was convinced i can see a shadow on the last 2 tests that ive done but im not sure if its just in my head or not.... got a killer headache that wont go away unless im in a dark room and i cant stomach certain smells that i used to like.... im going mad here not knowing whats going on!!!!

Brookegarrett: 9 weeks prego!!! thats amazing! Your family is absolutly georgous!! Congratulations!!!

magic_angel: Thank you so much for responding and sharing your experience with me!!! However, if you are in sever pain like that I would go to the emergancy room.... it may possibly be a itopic preg!! In worst case they can test you so that you know for sure! I am in discomfort.... not really painful and have super minor cramps. They say that you have cramps because your uterus is streaching as baby grows.... I have been pregnant before and my son weighed 8'6! Although that was almost ten years ago I cant help but think that im not cramping as much as some because I have been preg before. I am not sure if I am but I am now 8 days late with no sign of AF!!! everyday that goes by I get more and more excited!!! I hope that you get your BFP and its not itopic!!! I will be praying for you love!! big hugs!

Hi M&B the cramping has calmed down now, and the twinges are still there but they are not as bad as last night, water bottle for 5 minutes seems to keep it away for a while so im lot happier than last night, im officially on 7 days late now, ive never been late before so not sure whats happening, and i cant help but think that the pain and discomfort i felt last night was implantation or af might be round the corner, i really hope she goes on holiday thiss month as i dont want to see that horrible witch right now hope everything goes well for you

 

[justmeinlove]

If you're 7 days late for AF, it wouldn't be implantation afaik, that would have happened about a week or two ago.
I must admit, I agree with Mum_and_Baloo, if it keeps hurting that much and AF doesn't show, get the Dr to double check...
HUGS! GL to both of you!

i have know clue about all this im new to this site so heads all over the place, all i know was the twinges were painful and i would prefer af pains as bad as they are, and im late with sore nipples but not sore boobs which when af shows, its usually sore boobs but ok nipples, cramping is staying to one side all the time '(right side), im just going to go for a bath this evening with candles, some chill out music and then finish off with a film in bed with my dog, i will use her as a water bottle lol, thanks for the replies will see how today goes and if im still in pain like last night ill go to Hospital x

 

[justmeinlove]

OK. I think what mumandbaloo is veering towards is that you should just be aware of the possibility (that everyone faces) of an ectopic pregnancy.
So yeah, keep an eye on it, if it keeps hurting, pootle over to the hospital and make them have a look at you.
And yay, dog!
