Think AF is knocking on my door...

Okay...so the addict in me is having trouble with the whole POAS thing....big surprise...just did and of course, BFN. Last night I started having some very AF like cramping feelings, today little of the same. Sure she's going to show up. Will be sad...but if she does, at least I know my cycles are getting shorter. Today I am either 10, 11, or 12 DPO. Blah.

I'm really sorry but maybe it is not over yet?? Could you test again if no AF?

I will next week...problem is since coming off BC I don't really know when to expect AF because my cycles have been crazy. It was 42 days last month. Could go nuts waiting for it to come!

I think if I still have a BFN on Tuesday morning and no AF I will call my doctor and see if I can't get in to talk about ways to regulate my cycle after BC...because last month I had no clear signs of ovulating. This month it was almost clear that I was ovulating between the 22nd-24th because of ewcm and abdominal pains...but for my cycle to be as long as it was last month doesn't make a whole lot of sense. And if the symptoms I'm experiencing this month are PMS and this is what its going to feel like every month, I am in trouble because this bb pain is killing me.

You could also start taking your temp, that can help you see patterns for ovulation. Helps you understand more about what is going on in your body. Good luck!

Thanks...I plan on starting that...was trying not to get TOO serious about it, as its only been 2 cycles off BC...still not all that worried, just annoyed. Biggest annoyance is I really feel like AF is coming, which, if it is, it would be precisely on time which is good after my 42 day cycle last month...BUT its a big freaking slap in the face to not have fallen pregnant and to have developed the WORST PMS ever. I never had PMS before, maybe one day the week before where I was *slightly* emotional and headaches, thats all. Now my breasts feel like they're on fire, headache, *extreme* moodiness, breaking out like crazy, gas, bloating, ugh! This is horrible. I thank BC for this...hope it doesn't last. And this was supposed to be my last month purposefully trying because I can't be due in the middle of the summer. I might be able to get away with trying in September...as long as AF shows up soon!
