My period was due yesterday so I'm a full day late, usually like clockwork.
I did a First Response early test today (even though I'm late and it was negative) - although I didn't do it first thing in the morning.
I have no pregnancy symptoms but equally no signs of AF either.
I remember when I got pregnant with DS that I had a couple of negative tests despite being late and in the end a clear blue digital was positive so I've ordered one of those.
I don't really know what to think...
Should I expect to see AF any day now or maybe I'll be lucky and it'll be like DS....?
Anyone else going through the same and also going crazy?!

The happened to me and it's so miserable. Only think worse than your period and not being pregnant when you want to be, is no period and not being pregnant when you want to be :(

Yep I’d agree with that sentiment @LittleGwyneth, it sucks massively. I’ve just had a 53 day cycle, and right up to the last day I held tiny hope that we’d conceived our #2… gutted, but we can keep trying.
Sorry you’re in a similar boat OP, hope af shows and you can continue trying, or you get your bfp soon x

Recently had vaccine?
dopeyduck · 30/07/2021 07:27
No vaccine recently - I had my second jab at the beginning of may, had the usual 12 week gap between first and second dose, I've had no period disruption throughout so I wouldn't have thought it could be that.
Still no sign of AF - I've been feeling really tired, hence why I tested, so tired I did a covid test yesterday - negative. Had some slight back pain yesterday but short lived.
I think I'm just hoping it's because I'm pregnant rather than there actually being symptoms IYKWIM. Now would be such a great time for us, but the reality is slim - I missed predicted ovulation by 48 hours, as I was away with work so there was no DTD for 4 days before until two days after .... I mean possible as was only estimated on cycle length but I doubt it.
I ordered some ovulation tests yesterday as I expect AF will be here soon and I'm so fed up of trying.
I fell pregnant quickly without any effort first time and since we've been trying for #2 it's been full of misery & miscarriage.
Rant over but I'm trying not to be negative IRL.

This is me now too. I'm 4 days late and usually have 29 day cycles. My pg test two days ago was negative. I'm pretty sure from my opks that I just ovulated late (cd21). I think knowing that means I'm less stressed about waiting for AF because I already knew it would probably be late. Hopefully once you start with your opks next month you'll know exactly when you're ovulating. (But I'm also hoping you're actually pregnant!)

@dopeyduck and @ElderMother it's super frustrating isn't it?!
Did AF showed up in the end or are you guys still waiting?
I'm in the same boat now, 3 days late, feeling a bit crampy but nothing else, BFN.

I'm the same, no sign of AF was due yesterday.
Taken a test from Asda this evening and that's negative I don't know what's going on my periods are normally on time 😫 so frustrating!

Hi, what was the outcome for you? I'm going through the same just now!
Thanks x
