An Update

First of all thank you so much for all your comments and emails. The advice was greatly appreciated. I had no idea you can still get AF cramps AND be pregnant. This TTC business is really a mind-f@*k. Now for the update. Still no AF, but the cramping continues. When I awoke this morning I was convinced there would be the first signs of its arrival. But. Nothing. So I POASed.


B.F.N

I have checked it like a million times and held it to the light to inspect it for even the faintest of pink lines but nada. But this time I won't be throwing it in the trash, cos you never know... and I don't fancy picking through the trash again in 2 days time.

I have never done a pregnancy test like this before. I bought a load from the UK when we first started TTC and since they're all finished, I sent Mr. T round to our local pharmacy to pick up just ONE more. I had no idea what a Moroccan pregnancy test would be like but thankfully I didn't have to wonder too much as he came back with one that was made in the US. But this was still confusing. No instructions! Just 2 printed lines of miniscule text on the back of the packet. 

I had to pee in  a cup first and then use the small plastic pipette that came in the packet to drop my pee into the little hole and then wait. I much prefer actually getting to POAS this was more like PIAC (pee into a cup).

Anyway, the doctor's appointment is still on today and I guess we'll find out one way or another. I am going to insist on a blood test if AF doesn't show by then. Trying desperately not to get my hopes up but since this is the closest I've ever come to a maybe pregnancy it is so hard to think of anything else. But I am totally prepared for the big disappointment. 15 months down this IF road (which I know is nothing compared to what some have and are still going through) has taught me that much.
