    Post Could I be.....

    I need an opinion. My cycle is very regular (always a 28 day cycle - starts on a Friday morning), but it's late (5 days to be exact). I have done a couple of HPT and all have come up negative.

    I'm now getting a bit nauseous and my skin has broken out a bit, but no sore BB, no heightened sence of smell and any of the other 'indicators'. Could I be pregnant? It's driving me crazy!!!!

    It is very possible you could be pregnant. Some women don't get a + HPT for a few more weeks yet. Maybe go to the dr and get a bt? Good luck!

    I've booked into the doctors tonight and hopefully a blood test will sort it all out.

    Just on another topic (but linked), did anyone every get cramping - very slight, like AF was coming, but no AF? I got that around the time I was due, could that be implantation pain?

    Hi, sorry i cant help with the cramping question as i am still ttc, but i think the bt will sort out if your pg or not. Some women dont show a positive hpt for weeks and some women dont experience pg symptoms early either - everyone is different. You could also be having a longer cycle (this can happen for no reason at all) but i really hope that you get your BFP.
    Keep us updated.

    When I fell pg with Nina, I knew before I period was even late. I had cramping, which were different to AF cramps.
    Best of luck with the bt.

    Yes Laura you could be.

    With #1 I had AF type cramping around time AF was due and got a BFP about 5 days later. Feels like AF is coming but is stuck!! With #2 I had AF type cramps about 3 days before AF was due, but did not get a BFP with HPT and had it confirmed with BT when AF was overdue.

    Fingers crossed and good luck for the BFP!

    Just a quick question. AF still hasn't arrived however I'm getting a little bit of cramping (no where near as intense as when AF comes) and a small amount of blood - sorry if TMI. I know that some women get implantation bleeding, but I thought that this usually happens around the time AF if due, and mine is now over a week late.

    Does anyone know what this bleeding could be (other than AF coming late - which I hope it isn't)?

    I'm due to have a BT tomorrow morning.

    Hi,

    With #1 I had AF cramping before and then tested + on first day AF was due. I then had AF cramping for about the next 3-4 weeks like AF was still coming. With #2 I had AF cramps before as well and after but not as bad and tested about 4 days before AF was due. Both my sons were very healthy. My dr told me the cramping was normal.
