Hi there, first time of posting, first time of possibly being pregnant. Just wondering what anyone else thinks:

AF was supposed to show up on 26-27th of NOV. Usually pretty consistent, maybe a day or so off. So far not here. Been having mild cramps,backache,feeling "wet" often, increased libido, sensitive(not sore) breasts, some quizziness on and off, increased hunger, peeing frequently, "bloated" feeling, but BFN's. Any thoughts on if it may sound like I'm pregnant or just really late? Thinking about going to have blood test done. Thanks Michelle

Hi Michelle :) Well, even though your symptoms are pregnancy-sounding, there's no true way to be 100% just based off your symptoms :) Especially since a lot of ppl have told me that pg symptoms and pms symptoms are neck-and-neck with similarities! lol What can we say, mother nature's a beautiful thing! lol

I think your idea of getting a blood test is a great one. That way it'll clear up any miscommunication as to whether you are or not :) It could be possible that you just don't have enough HCG in your urine. Some women I've read about don't test + on a urine test for months after their blood test confirmed their pregnancy. Your symptoms sound really good though and I've got my fingers crossed for you that it turns out the way you hope ;) Let us know how everything goes. Hope this helps.

Best Wishes

Nikki

Hi Michelle,


Your symptoms definitely do sound like they could be pg ones, but like PP said, it can be so

Hello,


Its hard to say because pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are sooo similiar. A blood test would be a great idea.

TTC to conceive #1 officially since 2001. Dh had Varicocele surgery 2005 and has low sperm count. Dh tried Clomid..it didnt really help, HSG in 1999 and 2005, Charting since Jan 2006, <

Hi Ladies,

Thanks for the well wishes and crossed fingers!! I did go a have a blood test done- came up negative- little bummed- my husband and I weren't trying to get pregnant, but we weren't really preventing it either!! We were planning a cruise to Alaska for this upcoming July with several people, then out of nowhere no AF- got us excited! Oh well- maybe the cruise will be a babymaking one!! So i guess I should be expecting AF to coming jogging in soon!! Thanks for all of your advice!! Take care- maybe we'll see you sometime soon!!
