AF due tomorrow. BFN today. Loads of Preg symptoms. Anyone in the same boat?

[Roslynbabes]

I'm making myself and my hubby (i'm sure) crazy. AF is due tomorrow and I've got none of the usual symptoms. POAS this morning and got a BFN, which lots of women say is too soon to test. I'm hoping that's the case.

Anyone else experiencing this? I feel like so many women get BFP's 10-12DPO that if we don't we feel like we're out.

Ugh.

I didn't start paying attention until 2 dpo

2-ewcm - weird for me to have that after O
3- very very tired
4-nothing
5- a lot of ewcm, very tired and thinking i'm getting sick
6- still feel like i'm going to get sick (cold/flu)
7- increased lotion cm, feel fine like sickness missed me
8- cramps begin
9- cramps, lots of cm, very tender breasts (under armpits which is weird) and nausea comes and goes throughout the day
10- cramps, breast tenderness increasing, nausea, fatigue and pretty extreme irritability
11- gas, cramps on and off, trouble sleeping, night sweats, breasts still very sore, nausea subsiding but irritability increasing
12-today - slight cramps, very tender breasts (hurt for shower water to hit them), BFN, creamy cm

I feel like maybe I've just read into my symptoms too much. Perhaps this isn't my month. If so though, these are the weirdest AF symptoms I've ever experienced.

Why do we make ourselves so crazy?

It's what we do best! Haha. AF was due today for me, but witchy poo hasn't shown her face yet. Keeping my fx'd for you.

Are you testing again tomorrow?

I'm late for AF by 4 days, but I o'd late so i'm only 13 dpo.

I tested yesterday bfn. Going to buy a frer and test on friday with FMU
I've been using dollar tree test so i'm going for the more expensive to see if that will show anything. I've been off an on crampy since 10 dpo which is not how my cycles work. I normally get one cramp and the bleeding begins. This cramping is dull and about an inch or two down from my belly button!

It was very little today so I think it could have been implantation!
My boobs are sore only the sides, and I have been very very exhausted!

AF is due tomorrow, but I have a 24-25 day cycle and this is our first month trying. I did a $ store test this morning from second urine and got a BFN!

I feel for the most part I am over analyzing every little thing, and trying to figure out what is a AF symptom compared to a Preggo symptom. It is all very overwhelming.

The only noticeable differences I can think of is the cramping I got the last few days which I don't ever get before AF.
Also from about 10 DPO on I have had a lot of frequent urination, which I was worried might have been a UTI but I had no other symptoms of it.
Maybe increased sense of smell, but its not a constant thing so I don't know for sure.

All other things like sore bbs, mood swings, and cravings can be attributed to AF if I think back.

I am definitely not a fan of this TWW!

I read this really good article about HPT's (I am new here so they won't let me post the link but I'll put the quote)

Article is called "Some good info on HPT false negatives"

"EARLIEST DETECTION PROBLEMATIC
As several studies have made clear, these pregnancy-test kits may not work the same for all women. Even if the test kit is working perfectly to detect the hormone released after the embryo is implanted, many women will obtain incorrect results if they test immediately after missing their period.

10 percent of pregnant women, the embryo does not implant until after the first day of the missed period, according to Dr. Wilcox's findings. Using urine tests to measure hCG concentrations in 136 normal early pregnancies during a study of possible environmental causes of early pregnancy loss, Wilcox found that even as late as a week after the missed period, 3 percent of pregnancies still hadn't implanted.

"Until implantation, it doesn't matter how sensitive the test is," Wilcox says. "You can't detect the pregnancy before it's producing the stuff that you're measuring, which is hCG."

Even pregnancies that have implanted may produce too little hCG for many at-home test kits to detect the day after the missed period when read after the waiting period specified in test package instructions. Some kits improve in detection when read after a wait of 10 minutes, but waiting longer than that may produce a negative result that looks faintly, misleadingly positive."

again that was at - two week wait - article title "Some good info on HPT false negatives"

The whole article is good and will fill in what I didn't include. It gives me hope after reading all of these "BFP 10DPO!!!"

Good luck to you all

Thanks for that info! How are you progressing along? Did AF show?
