So My husband and I have been trying for a year now. My periods are 28-30 days regular. I usually get sore breasts, and a little crankiness before my period. But this month it has been so different. I am pretty sure I felt my ovulation, that sore type of feeling right around the day that I should've ovulated. And this is the first time I have felt that since we conceived our first child. Anyway, The last two weeks I have been crampy, like dull ongoing cramps - never felt that before. I feel like my pants are too tight around my abdomin, but I haven't gained any weight.I have been unexcusably mean to everyone around me, snapping at the silliest things. I have been having headaches, and been SUPER tired. The only thing that I would be feeling before my period is sore breasts... and they feel fine this week. My period is due tomorrow. I am hoping it doesn't come, but I am scared to get another neg. I took one two days ago and it was neg. I feel pregnant, but maybe my body is playing tricks on me. I just don't know.

Good luck with your efforts - the subtle changes you note justify some optimism! Why not hold off testing until next weekend, first morning pee, and repeat a week later if still in doubt. hCG hormone rises more slowly in some, and it is not until 2 weeks late that you should give up hope.

Did you test again yet? I got a negative with my daughter at 11 days past ovulation and then it was positive at 12 days past, so the first test may have been too early. Retest.

I tested this morning. Still neg. I am 5 days late today. I am going to wait another week and then maybe try to get in to see a dr.

some people do not see a positive until 17dpo or even 23dpo so you HCG levels may just be slower. until AF comes, do not give up hope!
