:wave: I was due for my A/F yesterday. I know it is too soon to test, but is it too soon to hope?

Are you charting? If you are, then see if your temps stay raised for a few more days. If they do, then you'll know you're pregnant. Personally, I don't think it's ever too soon to hope, but I'm sure familiar with the disappointment of AF arriving. You could try to test if you are certain that you are alread a day late. I would wait a few more days, but I know how hard that is. I hope that you are going to get your BFP though.

Thanks for responding...sometimes it seems like not many respond in this thread (TTC)
Anyway, I know my cycle has been between 29 and 32 days. I've kept track on my calendar every month. Yesterday would have been day 32. So I should have started it or at least felt signs of it. :confused:
I decided to actually really check my cm and chart this time if I end up getting A/F. I'll definatley wait to test....I have a test left at home but don't want to waste it as they can become very expensive. I'll wait till at least Monday of next week, if I don't get it then, I'll go ahead and test.... :angel:
You are so right though about the disappointment, no matter how hard I try to tell myself not to get excited...

I am usually 28 or 29 days, never over 29. But last month I was 5 days late, so of course during those 5 days I was testing almost everyday with bfn, yet I still felt utterly dissapointed on day 33 when AF finally arrived. I think it was due to stress with everything I had doing during that time.
Now she is due on Sunday, but I probably won't test this time if she doesn't come right away. Too expensive & heartbreaking. I wish you the best, and hope is the foundation of faith, which is very important for family planning.

Thanks justdance :angel: you are very sweet and kind....
Like I said, no point in me testing now, feels like it is too soon. I've never been over 32 days but heck it is only 2 extra days so I will just wait it out. As hard as that can be, I don't want to waste my First Response Test on another dissapointment.
I feel nothing which sucks. I wish I'd at least either feel cramping (for a sign of A/F) or nausia for a sign of being prego..... Oh well *sigh*
Such is life.....:(

When I was pg this summer, I didn't really feel anything until the week AF was due and even then, I was just having some AF type cramping and very mild nausea once in a while. Don't give up hope yet! Not everyone feels nauseous...think of all the people who get pregnant and have no idea! I waited until 4 days after AF was due to test and got a + immediately (unfortunately I had a mc in July...but am back trying now :) )
Good luck!!!
Good luck!!!

I am always 28 or 29 days on the dot, I have went onto 45 days twice in a three year span. But the tests came back with a BFN. That was a stressful time, sometimes I focus to much on getting pg that AF teases me a couple days and then she comes. What a huge dissapointment. Best Baby Wishes.

Well it is getting hard to NOT be excited about getting ready to test for pregnancy. I don't know I Really should stop this. Cause I'm just setting myself up for a HUGE LET DOWN. :rolleyes:
The longest cycle I went was July to August was 34 days. Since then I haven't gone over 31. My cycles range from 27-31 from August till Oct.
I guess I may just have to wait till my cycles are very normal and right on chart.
I've been checking cm and its been stretchy at times, someteimes egg white and someteimes just wet....right now though there is NO SIGN of A/F.....it is so hard to not just GO TEST RIGHT THIS MINUTE. :nono:

:wave: Hi SammieP
THanks for the good wishes and baby dust to you as well!
That is just the thing, I don't have any sort of symptoms either way! I have no sign of A/F still and no sign of like nausia or cramping or spotting or back pain or anything.
I've talked to a few different people who said they did'nt feel ANYTHING in the very beginning weeks of the pregnancy so maybe just maybe....(and that is a big maybe) I'm prego.
I don't know how much longer I should wait to test. It is really getting hard cause the longer I wait the longer I think I am possibly pregnant. It is going to be such a huge let down if I test and I'm not prego. :(
This is just so crazy. I always thought I'd get prego right away, and not that I've been trying for long (only about 5 months) it is still frustrating.

My friend said she knew straight away but everyone is different.
I know how frustrating it is, it drives me mad playing the waiting game but one day it will pay off and we will be pregnant.
Anyway, sprinklings of baby dust coming your way, who knows - you may not need it now! ;) ;)

Well :(
I just went to take a shower and before I did, I looked at my cm. Not to be too detailed but I took a mirror to check instead of just doing it the old fashioned way to see if I could "see" something. Well there seemed to be thick white mucas...it isn't very stretchy....just kind of thick and pasty....after I showered and washed really well, it was still there :confused:
I don't know if A/F is on her way, or if it is just because I'm thinking about it, but my lower back is starting to hurt and I feel slight cramping in my lower abs on the right and left side. :(
I guess I'm probably not going to get a BFP if I test so I'll just await stupid A/F. GEESH :mad:

Keep your chin up.. its going to happen for you before you know it:) Do you normally have back pain before AF?? This may be a good sign if you don't. I know that pg symptoms are like PMS ones( I drive my self nuts with this:)). Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

:wave: Hi Fae
I'm trying to keep my chin up and believe that one day I really will be prego, but it just feels like I'm never going to be a mom :(
As far as back pain before A/F-that would be a yes. It is usually lower back, however it normally doesn't go away. The pain is gone and so are the mild cramping feelings I was having. I have no spotting, no NOTHING.
Today is Sunday and I expected to have cramping and pain and see some sign of A/F when I went to the bathroom this morning but STILL NOTHING. :eek:
This is the 5th day past the day I should have gotten it according to my records. I still don't know if it is too early to test. I've waited this long, maybe I should wait a little over a week? Tuesday the 8th will be one week over....Hmmmmmm (*thinking* lol)
Obviously I'm not the only one who goes through this.... :nono: So I guess I should just stop worrying so much about if I'm going to get A/F or not, and maybe she will finally come. Mayvbe I'm the one causing her to be late by being so ANXIOUS...even though I don't feel as if I am...I'm sure my body knows what I want and it is putting stress on it, without me even knowing it. :rolleyes:

I say if you're late, you should test. You're driving yourself nuts wondering if you could be pregnant or if AF is about to show up. Some pg tests can detect pregnancy before your period is even due, so if you are actually 5 days late, a test should be accurate. Go ahead and test and put your mind at easse one way or the other. Because you're right about stress delaying your period. Let us know what you decide!

Thanks BrookJC....for your input...
I think I'm going to go ahead and wait at least another day. I have a test left from when I tested a few months back and I know how much $$$ they are so I'm really trying to hold off using it until I really think A/F isn't coming.... :nono:

Well, I said that I would wait another day yesterday thinking I'd have my A/F by this morning but still NOTHING! I was reading a book called Taking Charge of Your Fertility. I'm sure some of you are familar with it.
Well, what I read in there was that stress DOES NOT CAUSE DELAYED PERIODS! It is a myth. However, stress can cause you to ovulate late. SO now I'm wondering if I ovulated later then I usually do and that is causing my extended cycle.
Hmmmmm :confused:
