I think I am 4 days late for AF. The last 2 months I have not been very consistent with charting, but I know my cycle is usually 30-32 days, and its been 35 days since last AF. My temps are still up. My bbs are a little sore, but they are usually like that before AF, I seem to be breaking out more, and my abs feel tighter.. ive never had that before, it feelslike i worked them out the day before, but i havent worked out my abs for weeks :).

So yesterday I decided to try an HPT, it was negative. Did I test too early? It seems like most people who are pregnant get a positive right away, at least the day of their missed period. How long should I wait to test again, and is their a good brand to use? Thank you

I'm writing to you but unfortunately I have no experience on pregnancies...not yet at least.

It is true most people get the right response from the first day of late AF arrival...I really don't know what to think..

My case is this.. I believe I've a cycle of 32 days and today is the 32nd day from my LMP and at this point, after reading what you wrote, I think I might wait a week before taking my FIRST EVER PREGNANCY TEST!! Contrary to you I have no PMS...my breasts usually start hurting a week before my period...this time they haven't. When I wake up in the morning (this has happened for the last 5 days) I feel like my period's coming on ...but then it goes away and I feel fine during the whole day. I must say I do feel very tired, but this doesn't mean anything I don't think, because I've felt this way for the past 2 months.

I've also a had white creamy secretion till 3 days ago..now it's still white but less creamy - more like how it looks like before O-ting.

TANTI AUGURI! BON CHANCE! BEST WISHES TO YOU!! ;o)

hey sounds like we are in the same situation, im currently CD 36, i also was having no AF symptoms when i was supposed to, but now when i wake up (and sometimes during the day) I feel as if im going to start, but i havent. i am going to test again on thursday. my bbs have been sore for the last few days, so im thinking either im just going to start really late ( i think i o'd late) or im pregnant. i cant say i have any other symptoms..anything that feels unusual i think either im making up or im just looking for things. so we'll see on thursday. are your temps staying up? mine have stayed up, it did drop from 98.4 (CD 30) to 98.0 today.. the last two days for 98.2, but still wway above coverline. hope everything is OK for you!! when r u going to test??

Yep! It certainly does seem like we're in the same situation, only you are 4 days ahead than me,

I am starting to think, though, that I'm going to get my AF tomorrow...I just have this feeling. It is evening now for me (I live in Italy) and I feel like I felt this morning, as if my period should start ...mumble mumble...I wonder!

Regarding body temperature I wouldn't know in Ferenheit...but this evening it's 37.5 degrees Celsius...and it's been this way since my ovulation (high-ish as if I had a slight fever).

But, as you brought it out, could you explain to me what it means please...I thought that the high bt remained that way from O till AF...so how would one detect pregnancy from that? This is one thing I know nothing about.

Anyhow sounds like you should be getting a BFP, 36CD is quite way up along or is it not for you. In your place I would've been over-excited already :o)

I would like to test Thursday am if AF doesn't show up tomorrow...but I'm afraid it could be to early...I mean you've been waiting more than that, right?

When are you testing?

All my best wishes to you!!!!
