    Advice Please :-)

    Hey Ladies!

    I'm not TTC, but I wanted to ask you guys something...

    I have a 33-35 day cycle, and since CD19 my nipples have been SUPER tender. My boobs are a little bit sore too, but only on the sides like when AF is coming. My lower back hurts a little too.

    My partner and I have unprotected sex, but use the pull out method.

    I really don't think I'm pregnant, but what do you guys think it is?

    Not sure.

    However, the pull out method is not a good form of contraception, unless you don't mind if you get pregnant.

    Maybe take a home pregnancy test to rule that out.

    Well we both know that the pull out method isn't a good form of contraception, so I guess we both don't mind if I got pregnant

    I really don't think I'm pregnant. It feels more like AF symptoms to me, but I don't know why they would be coming now? I don't usually get them for a few days-a week of AF showing up.

    you could be ovulating, as if you have a 35 day cycle I would guess it would be around now... alot of people including me get sore nipples around this time...

    so if you dont want to get UTD then I would be avoiding DTD for a few days...

    sorry I thought you were only CD19 now... if your due for AF and she isnt here then POAS

    Hope you get a result your hoping for.

    Sorry, I didn't explain myself properly...I was on CD20 when I posted this, so I am only CD21 now

    I thought it was only because of ovulation, but it feels like AF sore
    I keep telling my partner that my boobs hurt (seeing as though males like to touch lol) and he keeps saying "your pregnant, your pregnant". I would absolutely LOVE to be pregnant, and I know my partner would be over the moon too (I remember how much he said he couldn't wait for kids when we were only just friends lol), but we aren't actually trying because we are planning on moving a few times over the next few months and money will be tight, but if it happened then we would work it out

    I have some OPK's from when I TTC before, so I might do some of those to see if it is infact ovulation.

    So even if it is O tenderness, how long does it usually last for? It's going on 4 days now and doesn't seem to be getting better.

    I'm not wearing a bra today

    O pains can last anywhere from 3-5ish days.

    I would go and buy a cheapie pregnancy test, just to rule it out and go from there.

    Want2bmum: i guess it just depends on how long your cycles normally are. implantation usually occurs somewhere between 9DPO and 12DPO and can result in some spotting.

    HTH!

    I think it's just early AF symptoms. But really, she shouldn't be here for atleast another 10-12 days. Is it possible to get AF symptoms this far away from when she is due?

    I had a sore back allllll yesterday, and it is only mild today. I've also had bloating, skin breakout and what feels like really mild AF cramps.

    I know

    Today is day 5 of all the breast/nipple tenderness and it doesn't feel like it's going away.

    It just sucks even more because my partner keeps acting like it's because I'm pregnant, but we aren't trying even though we both really want it. Sometimes I just wish he would keep his comments to himself because they upset me
    I've told him about it, and he said he would stop, but he hasn't

    I have a FR test, but I don't want to take it because I know that even if it was pregnancy () it would be too early to show. I usually have a 33-35 day cycle and I am only up to CD24

    I'm with you on that one Tegam, but DP isn't so convinced.

    Last week he regrettably made me turn down my dream dog that I have been on the waiting list for almost 2 years. The dog would have cost us $2700, but at the moment we don't have the money. The breeder offered us to "pay him off" which wasn't a problem, but because we will be moving a few times over the next few months (we are making our way up to Cairns), we had to say no. I was heartbroken, but we have left a deposit for the next litter, which won't happen until March/April next year

    So yeah, just based on that, I won't be pushing the baby thing...

    Well today is day 8 of the breast/nipple tenderness and DP is STILL saying I'm pregnant. AF shouldn't be due until around the 8th of November, so it would still be too early to take a test.

    I still don't think it's because I'm pregnant...


    Also, just out of curiosity I went to askdramy to see when I would be due IF I was pregnant...it would be my birthday next year!

    Ok, well I'm not pregnant...

    I got AF on CD28! She came 1 week early!!! Is that bad?

    My boobs still REALLY hurt and DP is STILL insisting that I am pregnant. He's like "Some people still get their period when they are pregnant".

    I've accepted that I'm not pregnant, but now I'm stumped as to why she came a week early?

    Any ideas?????????
