3 days late Need Support from women!?

Question

i'm now 3 days late for my period. Yesterday I experienced light brown & pink spotting which disappeared overnight.

I have OnTIME cycles each month. Every 24 days. Its now been 27 days which is the 1st time.

I don't have any cramps at all. No bloated feeling.
I do have lower back & side aches, swollen itchy breasts & light headaches here & there but thats it. I dont feel like I usually do when i get my period.

so im 3 days late, no cramps, & little spotting yesterday & i feel quite normal. Never been late before EVER.

My stomach keeps growling like i'm hungry. Kind of has that empty feeling when u haven't eaten all day.

Ive only been trying to conceive for 3 months or so. It hasnt been that long. I used to stress myself out over it too much so I decided to take it easy & give it a break for a month. I had intercourse again this month on the right days but didnt overwhelm myself with stress over it. Should I test now? or is it 2 soon? I dont wanna be disappointed again. 16 dpo

please read everything I wrote carefully and please ladies, I need support advise and anything else you can offer. Maybe share your stories? I know that I need to test in order to tell me for sure so please don't tell me to do that. I'm not going to be able to get access to a test until way later tonight. I dont wanna stress myself out over it either. thanks for reading, really!

Answer 1

Try testing with a first response early result test. When I was pg last time, I had very minimal symptoms, I mistook them for PMS. I tested when I was 3 days late (I have short cycles like you - 25 days) and got a bfp.

GL and baby dust to you!!!

Answer 2

You are doing the right thing not stressing out and trying not to think of it. With my second baby a little girl, I tried for 3 months before we got pregnant and we just relaxed and didn't stress over it and then she came along on her own. It sounds to me like your pregnant but I understand not wanting to get your hopes up. Make sure (I'm sure you already know) that you use the first mornings urine. I hope you are I am crossing my fingers. Good Luck! As long as you are at least one day late I would test in the morning actually if you want the test says that as long as you don't pee for at least 4-6 hours you could test tonight and it would be accurate. I know how hard it is to wait. Once again good luck. Let us know

Answer 3

I am 3 days late too!! I am going to wait until dec. 23 to test though, cause i want to have the results be more accurate than they will be now, i dont want to be disappointed!
my symptoms right now are really heavy boobs, no lower back cramps(which i usually have from ovulation to start of period) not feeling hungry at all-i fact i feel full all the time(weird), not really pms'y, feeling great actually(except for a cold).
I also had a tiny tint of pink when i wiped, and once after BD'ing at 8 days after ovulation. so i am hoping this was implantation!
Good luck to you!!!!

Answer 4

That would be called implantaion bleeding! This accures 6-12 days after ovulating and it's the egg settling into the uterus. Myself, I'm 5 weeks pregnant and known since day 1. This is my 3rd pregnancy and all pregnancies where different. I don't have symptoms yet, but only the implantation bleeding...but I have blue veins on my chest and breasts..that just occured this morning! But I wish you luck with everyhting that you find out...hope this helps!

Answer 5

If you are 16 DPO, you can test now and get a pretty accurate result. Sounds to me like you are pregnant... I've heard a lot of pregnant women talk about the itchy breasts! Keep us updated!

Answer 6

The fact that you're stressing out could be disrupting your periods. If you just take a pregnancy test, you won't accomplish much. It's too soon to know if you're pregnant, and it will only compound your stress. I would reccomend relaxing!! It's only 3 days. And with the tone of your post, you need to relax. It's normal.

Answer 7

I think you are preggo, u need to test. If you feel u should wait...Do so....the longer you wait the more accurate your results will be... But if I was u I would test 3 days late you should get an accurate result now....Pleasse let us know how everything goes

Good Luck

Answer 8

chances are you probably are not pregnant being that you spotted, even if it was for a little while. Stress will change your period...age will change your periods too.
I am regular myself and every few years I will miss a period for no reason, it just doesn't come that month.
If you are trying to concieve though I suggest trying the week before your period is due...at least that's how mine have always worked out. Then the baby would inplant itself into a nice new lining in the uterus.

Answer 9

If it was me I would wait untill you are full week late. Or if you want to spend the extra money the new EPT tests are good at telling in the early stages. I hope i helped.

Answer 10

Go ahead and test! I was 3 days late when I got my BFP. Best of luck to you!
