Trying to Get Pregnant

8 days late and no access to a pregnancy test.

So, long story short I need to get this out before it consumes my thoughts more then it has already. I am 8 days late, been TTC for 4 years with 3 IUIs and no luck. My husband is military so we are currently overseas and I everything here is pain, you can't just walk into a CVS and get a test we will have to ask a few people to even find a place so I haven't gone. (that and I am so nervous that it will be negative I would rather just check every 30 minutes then take a test) Anyway, day 5 of being late I felt like I had a lump or food in my throat all day. Did research and that is common. Day 6-8 of being late I had an upset stomach all day just a little, and felt almost like I was hungry all day. My boobs hurt but only when I go down our stairs and today they tingled. NO sign of my AF at all, and I am not stressed out (until I was late) because of course we weren't really trying since we just moved across the world! Anyway I have no one to talk to and share this with because I don't want to disappoint or have to tell I am not pregnant if that is the way this turns out.

  • You ovulated later the normal. Take a pregnancy test. That will give you the answer you are looking for.

    I would guess there's some sort of doctor where you're at? Not much else we can do for you. Symptoms at this point mean absolutely nothing since pregnancy and PMS are so similar. If you were temping and knew when you ovulated, then you can pretty safely assume you're pregnant if you get to 18 days past ovulation without getting your period. It sounds to me that you are saying you are 8 days late just based on the date of your last menstrual period. It's just as likely you ovulated late and therefore are getting your period "late". Time between O and period does not typically vary much at all. 

    PS get yer flame suit on. These posts are not well received here. Read the newbie guide and lurk.

  • Symptom spotting will drive you mad. Every symptom you listed is also a symptom of AF.

    Are you temping? If you aren't then you don't know when you ovulated, therefore you do not actually know that you are late.

  • Also you can pee in a cup at base medical. If you are a living somewhere that has dependants, they will have medical support for you. Just walk in and ask for a test.
  • Why don't you just go take a test (whatever way you need to go and do that)? Why ask a bunch of Internet strangers? We can't tell you if you're pregnant. Also it's against TOU to ask if you're pregnant even if you are asking in a round about way.
