Could I actually be pregnant?

** warning tmi below**
Hi, I was wondering if I could ask the opinions of you knowledgable women?

I got my mirena removed on Monday August 24. Light spotting for two days. I started my period on September 25-October 1st. Based on my calculations I was ovulating oct 10th ( but I was BDing every other day from oct 5- 20 just to cover bases. On the 18th and 19th I had intense lower back pain, I've had charley horses in my legs three times a week since then. AF was due on Sunday ( 25th). Still has not arrived . I took a test and it was BFN last night. Think I could still have gotten pregnant?!

I appreciate any help. I will probably test again tommarow morning if no AF. Here is hoping it doesn't show up!

    If you are calculating your ovulation date with a calendar and blind counting then you are just shooting in the dark. Do you chart your BBT in the morning?

    You may have achieved pregnancy, but we can't tell you based on raw data that you list off in a post. The only thing we can do, reasonably, is to tell you to test once a week. Use a cheapie like wondfo, walmart pink dye. The new FRER curved handles have a reputation for evaporation lines that can look like a positive. So I would avoid those at first.

    Use your first morning urine and test once a week until you reach 60 days without a period or positive HPT. Then you can contact your doctor and go from there. 60 days is the medical standard. Your doctor may want you to wait longer. My doctor asks for 90 days.

     If your test is negative, you're not pregnant. We are not doctors or fertility magicians and cannot determine this for you. Sorry.

    Test until your heart is content, or see your doctor, I guess.

    It is against the TOU to ask if you are pregnant. Please read the thread posted at the top titled newbies read this first. Take a pregnancy test as often as you like. At least once a week until AF shows.

    Negative test means you're not pregnant at this time.
    If you're having Charlie Horses then you need to drink more water because you're dehydrated not pregnant.

    There is a lot of good info here

    It might be worth a read, not just because your question is in conflict with the TOU but because it will make you feel less alone in your symptom spotting.
