New here....confused and overwhelmed!

Hi all. I could use some advice. I am always a 24-25 day cycle and without fail I get very sore bb's 4-10 days before AF and bloating a few days before as well. The only times I have missed a period were about a year ago when I was extremely anemic from being ( I had 3 blood transfusions and was on liquid iron) and even then only missed maybe a month or two and recently I was on a med that made my cycle disappear only for a month. I stopped the mesicine and my cycle came back just like always. I still went to the obgyn and she ran some blood tests to make sure everything was normal and it was. I had another cycle and dtd around O. AF was due today and nada. I haven't had any sore boobs or any other signs she's coming.
I have had some mild cramping on and off for the last week not like the bad cramps I get right before my period. No other real signs of anything except I've been REALLY gassy lately (sorry tmi) but that could be anything.
I poas yesterday and today and both bfn. One of the blue test had a faint line but I've been warned that a lot of those give false positives.
Even if I O a little late making AF late I would think by now I would be getting some sore bb's.
Other minor things include migraines, a couple vivid dreams, and I few shooting pains in my bb's but that could all be nothing.

So do you think I'm just having a wonky cycle or are the chances good that I'm pregnant and just testing too early? I've read a lot of women don't get a bfp until a week or two after missed AF.

Any insight is appreciated as I'm going out of my mind! Lol

Honestly none of what you said sounds like pregnancy. I don't think you're supposed to ask that anyway. Did you read the TOU & lurk the boards? That will help. Symptom spotting is not productive & often leads to disappointment if you're hoping for a positive test. When you turn a test positive or when your doc tells you, you're pregnant. That's pretty much it.

Thanks! Yes I did and I wasn't asking if il anyone thought I was....just maybe if there was an explanation for what was going on with my cycle this month or if it was possible to get false negatives.
Just really new to this. Appreciate the reply

Gotcha. Honestly I'm not sure what the frequency of false negatives really is but the concensus here is typically negative pregnancy test = not pregnant. Also, symptom spotting tends to set one up for disappointment if you're hoping to be pregnant. Also, they also say "your regular until you're not", so indeed this may be your cycle just being slightly off. That said, wait another week, take another test if AF doesn't come. Pass the time reading threads here, you can learn a ton. Good luck.

Edited for spelling.

Thank you very much! I did end up getting my period a couple days later. Maybe I O later this cycle. Either way it came. This forum is very helpful for sure...Non stop reading
