Hi all!
I'm 24 and will have been TTC number 2 for 2 years in April.
this last cycle (now on day 44, but my cycles range anywhere from 19-62 days) I took a bit more of a relaxed approach to TTC. it's been 22 months so needed a bit of a break! So i took no Opks and didnt do my BBT.
however i noticed EWCM around 21 days ago and 16 days ago, so assumed both times I was O-ing and we DTD. 21 days ago we used some conception aiding stuff too! just cos i had gotten a free trial thing and figured...it couldnt hurt.
so now im 16 days after the second suspected O...and AF hasnt shown up. it has never not shown when i expect it to, but i also wasnt tracking like i normally do (though i checked BBT about a week ago to be sure, and it was post-O)so im not 100% sure when i O'ed.
however! my boobs have been slowly getting more and more painful since Tuesday. I have had sore, swollen boobs before my period once before, but i dont remember it lasting more than 2/3 days before the witch got me. as of today i've also been having pain sorta...under my arms? (the boob pain is also on the outside of my boobs and a little underneath)
now! i have pretty small boobs to begin with. I'm an A cup and when i lean forward you can see...everything in the bra lol. cos it's too big, but that isnt happening anymore.
i've also been noticing smells a bit more...but then i dont know if thats because i went to places that smelled. or if thats me...if that makes sense. i havent had anyone with me to tell me if im overly sensitive.
i also restarted my anti-depressants on Monday after 2 years off them but it doesnt have any of these things listed under side effects, and i had none of it before...but obviously if I am pregnant, i will need to speak to my GP about that, as they can have a negative effect on a baby.
but! as it's been almost 2 years, i have seen wayyyy more BFNs than I can deal with. i can't take another...so im terrified to test, just incase I'm not pregnant. yet again.
opinions please! would you test? or would you wait longer?
TIA

i did yes, it's kind of like a stabbing pain. but not constant.
