...you got your BFP?

I have a 25 day cycle. My last period was on October 20th and on the 26th-30th, I BD'ed with DH (more than once in a day). I am not on BC, we did not use anything and there was no withdrawal.

On the 28th, I remember specifically feeling "different" after we had sex and saying to him "something about that time just didnt feel right." I immediately felt somewhat nauseous after, but it only lasted MAYBE 10 minutes.

According to babycenter.com, I ovulated during the time all the BD'ing took place.

Well here it is, November 9th and AF is due on the 13th. Ive taken three tests (including one this morning...all $ store brand) and they were all negative.

Any suggestions here?

As far as symptoms are concerned, my nipples are very sore and I can tell that my breasts are a little bigger, I have been feeling a 'weird' stretching feeling in my abdomen and mild cramping. I havent been any hungrier (at least that I can tell) but Ive been extremely thirsty. Discharge goes from eggwhite to lotion-like and they both have SOMEWHAT of a yellow tint to it. When I wake up in the morning, I feel like I need to go back to sleep and usually do for about three hours. Its the kind of tired associated with taking a sleeping pill or something of the like. And as of two days ago, Ive been having mild headaches...nothing to take meds for but enough to be noticed. For about the past three days, Ive also been having the most retarded dreams. I have only been able to recall ONE but I do remember the rest being crazy and thinking to myself "WTF?" LOL

Thanks ladies

With my last pregnancy (female) 7 years ago I knew I was pregnant from the moment of conception. I was out of town and meeting someone with the whole idea of getting pregnant. I conceived on 10/29. On 10/31 I was standing in Chicago airport on the payphone crying to my Mom because I knew I was. 8 days past ovulation I had a blood test and it was negative. I told the doctor they were wrong. She said come back in 2 weeks. 11 DPO I took a test not using FMU and got a faint positive. Later that day I took another and got the same result. Each day I took a test for up to 11 days and the faint line never got darker but was always there. I had the baby the following July.

With my first child (female) 16 years ago I was like 9 weeks preg before I got a positive result.
My second (female) I tested positive after missing my period.
My third (male) was 8 DPO.

With me if I show a positive early it means I'm having a boy. My sisters are the same way. Late positive means a girl. This is not science just a coinencidence.

Wow thank you....

If babycenter.com was right, then the very LAST day that I could've possibly ovulated was on the 30th, with the first being the 27 or 28th (?I think). I do not chart or anything. But that nite, I just "felt" funny...we had been doing LOTS of BDing but that specific nite just felt off to me.

So I guess that'd put me at about 11DPO if the site is correct. As stated, AF isnt due until the 13th but we'll see.

I hope you get the result you want. You could be testing too early. Maybe you felt "off" on the 30th because of implantation. If that is the case you need to wait 7 - 10 days from that day to test. If you have the willpower to wait a few more days try testing again on Saturday.
