Hi All,

l'm a newbie to the site, just wondering if you could help me out, l've been ttc now for 8 months, Af :witch: was due Easter Sunday - nothing at all, on the 8th 2 spots of very pink spotting when visiting the loo. Yesterday, brown discharge (only on wiping - tmi l know!!) Had cramping like af on and off for the last few days but that's all. Taken 2 hpt both -ve (l'm about 18 days past calculated ovulation).
Very confused as to what's going on!
Due to have bloods taken at set days on af and can't do this now as it's not arrived - 6 days late now.
Don't really have any other symptoms except a few blinding headaches prior to af date and bbs have been a little tender (don't usually suffer any pms symptoms).

How long should l wait to take another test - could l be pregnant and wouldn't it show on hpt this far past ov? (my cycles are very long 42 days!)

Any advice would be gratefully received!
Thanks!:thumbup:
 
Hey hun you could most certainly be pregnant, it must be so frustrating for you :hugs: id try every 2 days, as the hcg doubles...best of luck sweety :hugs:
 
Hello i dont know if this will help but with my first child i had spotting/bleeding for 2 weeks after AF was due. My doctor did a test and it was negative. My AF still didn't turn up and i had another pregnancy test at the docs which was also negative. When i went back with sickness a couple of weeks later i was told i had a bug and was sent home to get on with it. I did HPTs after that i thought the doctor thought i was mad so best of at home. After my ninth test i got a positive and the biggest shock of my life as when they gave me a scan i was 16 weeks gone. I had spotting around the time of my period every month for 6 months and pretty much no other symptoms apart from feeling like AF was about to show all the time and a funny taste in my mouth oh and the sick bug lol which lasted about a week. I would certainly keep testing and go with your own instincs. Good luck xxxxx
 
Thanks sparkle05! It's very frustrating not knowing and being on constant knicker watch!! Just keeping everything crossed!
 
Also try tests that aren't dollar store tests. Right now that's what I'm relying on and kind of grumbling because I'm so sore and so tired all the time. Not too much fun. So now it's waiting for AF (due in 2 days) since I didn't get my last BFP until I was 17DPO and now am currently 12DPO. Sometimes it really can take quite awhile before you find out you're pregnant. Every woman is very different and very strange and very mysterious in the way her body works. So hold out hope!
 
hey hun
you may be pregnant
could have Ov'd late & arn't as many dpo as you think you are, wait a few days and test again... and definately let us know!
fx'd you get your bfp!
 
I am also a few days late for AF and still testing getting :bfn: It's a terrible time for me too, at every slight wet feeling I'm running to the bathroom to check. LOL I just had lots of lotiony cm, good luck fx'd and toes crossed for you. . . .keep us posted and don't lose hope till the :witch: arrives! My friend is currently 7 mo pregnant and she didn't get her :bfp: till she was 6 weeks! so lets keep our heads up. . .

:dust:
 
Thank you all for your replies! Will try to keep +ve and hope the brown discharge is not AF - has anyone else had this (tmi - just on wiping)!! when waiting for BFP or af??
