I was supposed to start AF today, but she has not yet arrived. Normally I have cramping for a few days before and VERY tender breasts...none at all. I did have some cramping today and a slight bit of pink last night. To top it all off, I think I have a yeast infection...which I understand is more common during pregnancy....hmmm...not sure what to think. I am on the pill as well...could a be a "one percenter?"

Hey! I'm going through the very same thing right now!

No AF just yet...barely pink spotting. It just sorta looks like a dirty pink brown stuff when i wipe (sorry, tmi) Usually by this time of night, I've had officical start of spotting...but not really tonight. Did a hpt around 1:30 today, and after about 10 mins or so..the faintest dot of a line on one end of the strip showed up. It eventually formed a line...after the allotted time...and that is about it.

Been feeling..."full" for a week or so, EXREEEMLY emotional, today dizzy with headache, and cramping. Now those could also be PMS, but I too am on the pill, but took one late one night about two weeks ago...

i have one more test left. If nothing has happened by tomorrow morning, I'll take it.

Time to play the waiting game! At least you're not alone!

There were times when I was on the pill that I missed periods or had significantly lighter periods than normal. I know how nerve-racking it is. I'd wait a bit to test -- a couple days. Because, even if you are pregnant, you may not have enough hcg to show up on a test. You might talk to your health-care provider. Even though I learned that an occasional missed period was not abnormal, it was still something that bothered me. It might be time to change pills, if you're indeed not pregnant.

Good luck, and I hope everything works out the way you want it.
