Question

16 DPO, "period" cramps, but no period.

OK, I've been experiencing symptoms I have never felt before for the last two weeks (tingling, "sunburn" feeling breasts, extreme hunger pangs, a little nausea). But have taken four tests and they are all negative. Now, I am 16 dpo, should have started my period 2 days ago and I am having strong cramps, but no other symptoms anymore and NO period. What should I do? Do I take a test everyday until I start? Do I just continue to wait in anticipation and anxiety? Help!

I got my first very faint positive 2 days after expected period, the next morning it was negative - this happened three times!

Took a Digital 7 days after expected period and flashed up pregnant straight away. Sometimes the hormones just are not building fast - my sister never got a positive till she was nine weeks. I would not worry, you may still be in this month :)

Hi girls. Hope this helps. 11dpo I started haven mild cramps same for 12, 13, 14dpo anyway 15dpo day af was due had awful period pains the normal boob discomfort for pre period, mood swings even my monthly spots on chin. 16dpo mild period pains but no period just clear discharge, I thought period was at anytime but I had a test so I thought it may be worth a try low and behold it wad very positive. My advice is test I couldn't tell pre period symptoms apart from pregnancy symptoms. Good luck and keep us posted.

17 dpo and still having severe cramps. There has been very very scant pink on the TP, but I took a test this morning anyway...negative. I just wish AF would start already if I'm not pregnant. At least then I would have an answer. This being stuck in limbo is so frustrating! Is there a possibility that I could be pregnant even though I'm getting HPTN's at 17 dpo?
