Aa
Is there any chance that it's wrong?
So, I am CD29 and AF is due on Sunday. (the last few months have all been exactly the same)
This cycle, I took Femara on CD3 (10 tablets of 2.5 mg) and had an u/s on CD13 - RE said uterine lining was beautiful and sent me home to bd the night away :) We expected that I would O anytime between CD14 and CD15. I took an HCG booster on CD18 and CD21 (.35 cc each time)
I have been constipated, had sore bbs, heartburn and some restless nights (waking to pee, vivid dreams, night sweats, mild insomnia) and very mild cramping. I've compared my 'symptoms' to previous months and they are somewhat similar (but I've taken three booster shots in previous months, I ran out of the Rx this month, so only did two, so I wouldn't think that my bbs should have been hurting this whole time...)
On a whim, I decided to test this afternoon, had been about 3-4 hours since going and maybe about 2 hours since drinking (had a couple of glasses of lemonade at lunch). I used a grocery store knock-off of FRER and it was negative.
My question is there is any chance that it is wrong? I've heard so much about FRER that I think I should just wrap my head around the fact that it didn't happen this month, but thought that I would throw it out to you!
Please feel free to tell me what you really think...after almost 4 years of trying, I don't need it sugar-coated ;)

Thanks, Heather and Sharon for the positive thoughts. I am pretty sure that I am out...the cramps are beginning to become a bit more pronounced and (sorry, in advance, if TMI) but DH and I bd'd earlier this evening and there's been spotting of blood ever since! My bbs aren't as sore, either!
Guess it wasn't meant to be this month!

They say that fmu is best, so I would test again tomorrow. The signs do sound good. There are women out there who do not show up pos until after AF is due. Good luck!!
