Hi All,
I am on cd 25 of cycle, ovulated on 20th/21st Jan (cd 16/17) - due AF on Sun 4th Feb..... I have (or am imagining.....) loads of symptoms - nausea, cramps, MASSIVE nipples (much to DH amusement) and constipation (sorry if TMI). Now I know these could be symptoms of a lot of things but overall I just don't feel myself.. I would love to do test now but it would probably come up negative anyway.......
Your views???

hey corks,
i definitely wouldn't test today - at 8dpo, you've a 10% chance of it coming up positive if you are pregnant, not good odds! i'd wait until at least another 4-5 days before testing.
as for symtoms, i've had them all (and never being pregnant!) - big nipples, nausea, cramps etc. can all be normal pre-menstrual symptoms, aswell as indicators of pregnancy, so it's such a tough one to call.
i know it's hard but try and wait for a while. i hope it's ur month!

I agree with Mrs Peg.
Wait until Friday anyway. Get one of those Clearblue early testing kits and do not be tempted to open it until Friday!!

better to wait until af is due at least - the crushing dissapointment of a bfn should be avoided as long as you can stand it.
I'm only 5DPo and sure i'm already convincing myself I have symtoms while at the same time convincing myself they are not symtoms

Wait until ou are due af. that would be my opinion.
