Possible pregnancy

Ok I was supposed to start on the 15th and so far nothing! I checked previous months and I range from 27 to 28 days cycles but 4 months ago I had a 34 cycle which is weird. I'm scared to take a test because I hate getting the big fat negative :( I have had mild cramping on the sides and no discharge that you usually get before you start.

I have a 3 year old daughter and lost a baby at 9weeks a year ago in March and we have been trying to relax about the baby making but times like this it;s hard not to get your hopes up. Those of you that are pregnant what was your early sympoms?

Right. It was CD 35. And my last pregnancy.. i didn't find out til CD 39. When I tested then my HCG level only came back as 20.. so I was very very early pregnant. And I was very regular with AF then. HCG is just a number.. that can be anything during pregnancy and it still be a good pregnancy.

wow, so the 9th would have been your CD 35?? its insane how hcg shows in some women 5 days before af and some not until 5 days AFTER!!

I took a test on the 8th and it came back neg.. took another one the 9th.. used first morning urine and it too was neg.. took another one that night just because I had a 3 pack and surprise surprise.. BFP.. and thats AFTER drinking 2 cups decaf coffee and tons of water. So in my case.. first morning urine didn't work. But then again.. it all depends on when the HCG levels rise in your system. Mine happened to be later in the day on the 9th. Went to the doctor on the 11.. got a blood hcg and progesterone test and HCG came back 40 and progesterone came back 32.. two days later.. 9/13 they came back.. HCG 93 and progesterone stayed the same 32. So it is possible to get a neg and still be pregnant. test in a couple days if AF doesn't show up. Good luck to you both!!

P.S- do you think i should be worried that most of my cramping is on one side? (left)

My cramps most of the time arent the same as menstrual.. they just feel different its hard to describe. EXCEPT the times when im like oohhhhhhh now ive got period cramps.. i think im gonna get it! So i go to the bathroom and nothing. Then they go back to the same as before.

So would you be 3 days late?

Im either 1 day late.... or not due for another day or 2. My cycle was long last month for some reason... so i dunno how to chart it. If i go from last month then im due in 2 days. If i go from my typical months.. id be late! WTF i dunno lol

I hate that alot of AF symptoms and pregnancy symptoms are the same to--like we need that stress haha. I usually have worse cramps and more discharge sorry tmi :) But so far nothing I was going to wait until thursday and test (if I can) but since I'm posting I'll proably start today. When I had my daughter my boobs didn't hurt at all, actually I thought I had a bladder infection b/c i was going to the bathroom a lot and that was the  only symptom. I hate this wondering--we'll see :)

The cramping has been dull but constant with occassional sharper cramps since my o time... which ive never gotten before. I took a test this morning and it was neg. I could still get af since i was expecting it anytime from the 17th-20th. Seems like the past 4 days or so (Since Sat.)  I  get cramps like im going to get it but nothing comes. My stomach is real bloated and sensitive when i push on it.. dunno if thats supposed to happen before af or what. Sometimes i feel like im imagining things but my boyfriend says hes noticed some of these things for 1 or 2 weeks now!

I didn't find out I was pregnant until CD 35. The cramping could mean that you are pregnant or AF is coming. I hate it that cramping is a symptom for both! GRR Have you taken a test? If you take one and it comes back BFN then wait a week and take another if AF doesn't come. Do you have any other symptoms? I get those cramps now and I'm pregnant, just found out on the Sept. 9. So you could be.. test test test.. Good luck to you!!

SDSBD to you!!

I am somewhat in the same boat as you. Im on cd 28 today.. which is usually when i get af. But last month i had an unusually long month (for me) 32 days. So im not sure if i go by that time length or what it USUALLY is which is about 29-30 days. Im experiencing extreme fatigue, my breasts are noticably fuller & heavier, cramping since ovulation time.. and a few more im sure lol
