I'm sooo confused.

[karamel]

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this - but i need some advice?

AF is now 7 days late.
I've taken 4 pregnancy tests, all negative.
My cervix is so high I literally can't touch it.
I have heartburn.
I have food cravings.
I've gained weight.

What is bloodywell going on with me?!

I'm wondering if it's possible I'm farther along - and that I perhaps had an AF after conception?
I'm just so confused! I could use some input. Thanks all

Go get a blood test!! If it's negative, you most likely ovulated later than you thought. hope it's your bfp!!!! xx

You might've just had a wacky cycle and o'ed later than usual. When is the last time you took a test? I'd say hold your pee in for a few hours and use a frer or like taylor said, get a blood test!

I'm now 10 days late. I've gained 8 pounds in the last week :s which is very unlike me.
I'm going today to get a requisition for bloodwork.
My periods have always been spot on, since they began - on the pill or off of it. So I'm really not sure what's going on! Its possible I o'd later, but doubtful as its never happened before! Gahh, I just wish I knew!

"I'm wondering if it's possible I'm farther along - and that I perhaps had an AF after conception?" - do you mean that you might be one month further along?? If so, it's not that common but it happened to me with DS1. The bleed was enough to think it was AF (I didn't realise until I got to my 12 week scan and was told I was 17 weeks!). Happened again last year with a m/c - this time I at least had an idea that it was a possibility.

I don't like sharing it a lot as it just gives people more hope that they are pregnant even when they've had AF (it certainly does to me...I must be the only person who tests AFTER AF as well as BEFORE ) but wanted to let you know my story. I see you have a DD - did this happen with her (I'm guessing not as you wouldn't be asking otherwise)

That's precisely what I mean!
With my daughter, I was actively trying. I knew I was pregnant right away & it was confirmed at 3 1/2 weeks pregnant with an HPT. So, that's why I'm so confused! I guess every pregnancy is different, but I doubt my body is this random! I'm going tomorrow for bloodwork, so fingers crossed I get an answer soon!

I forgot to ask - did you have a positive HPT?

I forgot to ask - did you have a positive HPT?

I got a negative HPT around AF time (so I must have had some symptoms by then), then just assumed I wasn't pregnant because of the bleed. I finally did another HPT and get a positive - this would have been around 7-8 weeks, before my next AF would have been due, presumably as the symptoms had started to get stronger. I wasn't symptom spotting or obsessing over getting pregnant either time which is why I did the second test so late - I have no idea when the earliest I could have got a BFP would have been. This has happened to me twice as the same thing happened last year (but this time I m/c) though at least the second time I was aware of it.

It's a real pain as now I am actively TTC I still retain that hope that i might be pregnant and it's not my AF that has arrived but an early pregnancy bleed. In fact it's happening today as I got what is probably AF but I'm trying to tell if it's a bit lighter than usual, and DH last said out of the blue that I 'looked pregnant'

Can't believe our minds and bodies are so cruel but I'm trying not to symptom spot or test too much as it just drives me crazy
