Trying to get pregnant.. please help ... xxx

[molly_dollly]

My partner and I have been trying to conceive for 4 months, no luck yet. I found out that I ovulate right at the end of my period. So this time around we did what we had to! I used the test to see that it defiantly was!
I ovulated on the 18th & 19th, so we had sex 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th.
I was stupid enough to test 4 mornings running after the 2 week mark passed after ovulation, and it came up negative...

Anyway ovulation 3 weeks ago, and for about a week I had like a belly ache, not a pain, just a dull ache, which lasted about a week, and I'm bloated (Still) and today I'm very, very tired. I've got these freaky looking veins come up on my boobs, like on them and across my nipple. I'm hungry too, I don't eat beef, not as chunks (Spaghetti Bolognase only!) but i made a beef stew as I was craving it so bad, and ate it before I knew it...
I'm currently a day late...
I'm terrified to do a test if I'm honest! I'm a bit confused. I don't want to fool myself into thinking like this.
Thank You

P.S Would you mind not abbreviating words, as I'm dyslexic and people don't tell you what the meaning is! I know was TTC is! Only just..

Thank You So Much
xXx

Hi! Sometimes test wont show up positive until you've already missed your period. All depends on your hormone levels. I've definitely learned my lesson on taking test early because I felt nauseas or tired and to only find out that it's negative Bloating, being tired, and the dull ache sounds like pregnancy symptoms to me or the arrival of your period ( I dont know from personal experience but i've heard your period and pregnancy symptoms are about the same) so if you're late, test! It's scary to want something so bad only to be let down, but this month could be the month! Good luck!

Hi there! I'd say do a test, if you look at it this way, wouldnt you rather know either way? I know if your not then your going to be down, but just do one. I was late one month by 2 weeks and was scared to do one, and when i did it was neg, i was more heart broken because the 2 weeks had past and each day was thinking that i was.

Good Luck for you (Big Fat Positive)
