Question

How did your body feel on the day AF was due but you turned out pregnant?

AF is due today! And all I can say is, I don't feel her coming at all. Like I stated in a previous post, my entire boobs get super sore and sensitive about 5-7 days before AF comes (so sensitive to where I have to actually hold them if I go down the stairs with no bra lol) and my boobs are not sore what so ever, the only thing super sensitive is my right nipple? (My left one is a little sensitive but not as much as my right one) last night I had a teeny tiny bit of cramping so I thought AF would surely arrive right when I woke up because she normally comes with my first morning pee but she didn't. Also my chest area and boobs are super itchy. Not to mention I completely stuffed myself at dinner last night and literally 2 hours later my stomach was growing and hungry like I hadn't eaten all day. Share your stories!

With both of my pregnancies, it always felt like AF was on her way, except I didn't have my normal PMS "always hungry" feeling. One of my first signs of pregnancy is that I lose my appetite...but that's because the morning sickness starts right after I miss AF. I've always gotten my bfps before AF was due, so by the time that day arrived, I knew not to expect her. Keep in mind, however, that everyone is different, so do not be discouraged by differing stories. Gl to you! Hope it is your month!

As for me, today when I wiped myself I had tiny bit of blood. Today I am 17 DPO apparently. I ovulated two weeks ago. So technically today is 14 days since the last ovulation day I had (2 fridays ago). I took ovulation tests and pregnancy tests just to be curious today. I took an ovulation test this morning first thing with my AM pee and this afternoon/evening (6:20pm) = both came back positive.
I took a pregnancy test this morning as well with my morning pee and this afternoon/evening (6:20pm), both came back negative. So I don't know exactly what to tell you, other than everyone is different. Bodies react differently.

I guess technically today was the day that AF should have hit me... but I am a little shady on this spotting/slight blood when I wipe. When my AF comes, it doesn't come like this ... . So I am not sure what to think of this myself anyway.

I found out I was pregnant on 11 DPO, so by the time AF should have been here, I already had my BFP. If I hadn't already gotten a BFP, I think I would have thought AF was definitely on her way. I was cramping from about 8DPO until 6 1/2 weeks pregnant. And on 14DPO, I had brown spotting.
My breasts are generally very tender after ovulation as well, but this time it took them right up until I got my BFP to become extremely tender. That's really the only difference. I can see why people mistake pregnancy for AF and vice versa.
Good luck!
