Hi there, just popping in to say hello

I'm 28, and my husband and I have been wanting a baby for a long time, but we're only now planning to really go for it. Mainly because I only changed jobs about six months ago. I'd actually prefer to wait a bit longer, mostly because I don't want to disappoint my employer, but my husband is 35 and would rather have been pregnant yesterday than today, so...

In the meantime, I've been tracking my cycles for a while, and it turns out I'm already 4 days late, even though we weren't really trying. All the pregnancy tests show negative, but I've never been this late before, and for the last 4 months I've always been on my regular cycle. Today I've got some pain in my lower left abdomen, but no sign of my period yet. Should we dare to hope and dream...?

Best wishes,
I'm also having a little browse around
Bye xx

    Hi, that's so exciting!
    When is your due date? Then you'll know if you're pregnant.
    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

    I'm 4 days overdue but have been testing every day and they're all negative—even the Clear Blue one that you can use before your period is negative... This uncertainty is really not fun. I'll have them draw blood tomorrow if needed, otherwise I'll see the doctor if it still hasn't started. Now I'm having some cramps on the left side too, which I've never had before—it's only on the left...

    Oh how weird, right. Yeah, it's better to get a blood test so you can really rule out whether you're pregnant or not. Tough with all that stress, huh? I'd go crazy too.
    If you feel like it, chat along in my topic "Who else stopped this month.." Good luck tomorrow!
