Hi all, I joined this forum a few months back and posted a few times and then sorted faded away. I am now back and don't understand all the abbreviations you ladies are using? Some I do, but some i don't.
I also don't do the ovulation testing, should I?
I am currently 1 week and 3 days late with AF (Aunt Flow I am guessing) and took a test today and got a BFN (Big Fat Neg I am also guessing). Have I done the test too early? I don't really feel pregnant but i'm not normally late and especially this late!
Please help. Thanks. Dani.

Hi!
AF - Aunt Flo - Period
BFN - Big Fat Negative
CD - Cycle day
Not sure what others will help.
One week and 3 days late should we well and truely late enough to pick up a positive. I got my positives before my period was due. If you are concerned, perhaps get a blood test done at the doctors.
All the best.

Hi Dani, how long is your cycle normally? If it is usually a regular number of days i reckon you should get a blood test. Good luck.

Hey thanks for the advise and queenbean for bumping the post for me, very helpful!!!
My cycle would normally be a 28 day one. Might wait until next Wed if I haven't got AF by then do another test, if BFN again then will take a visit to my doc and see what they suggest!
Thanks for the help ladies
