    I don't really know when it's due because i've just come off the pill!!! My sis got pregnant 1st month of coming off pill so pinkies crossed!! if all was well i suppose my AF would be due about Sat!! I think i might wait until Sat/Sunday & then do a test! I just don't want to feel let down if it's not the real thing!

    If it is your first month off the pill i'd wait till at least Sunday to test hun. Hopefully you will be lucky like your sis and fall straight away but the pill can do crazy things to your body.

    Good luck hun

    Ooooo, I'm the same Lucy. I've had so many encouraging symptoms off and on but because I've had the odd funny month with my periods over the last couple of years I'm worried it is my body tricking me.

    I felt sick again this morning for about 3 hrs but it passed when I sipped a drink and now I'm OK. I've had symptoms for about 60-70% of the time since ovulation but as I'm sitting here just now the sickness has passed from this morning I generally feel not so bad (maybe I have a little backache but not much) and I don't feel as thirsty as I have been over the past few days. So at points like this I wondered whether I imagined it all!

    I am going to test on Saturday as well, though AF is not due until Monday. If you bought an early test then it would cover you if AF was not due until a few days later.

    Good Luck!

    I've had nausea, headaches, tiredness, sore breasts, increased awareness of smell (which my mum had when pg) for about a week now. AF not due for another 6 days so not sure if I've got proper symptoms or if I'm kidding myself!

    Oh well, I'll just continue to wait and see...

    One of my closest friends came off the pill in Jan last year and had all those symptoms but it was just her body readjusting as her period arrived on time.

    When I started ttc in Sept I also had a few symptoms - very sore nipples, blocked nose, some cramping. Then I started bleeding at about 32 days and I assumed I had the same experience as her. But when the bleeding wasn't progressing (used to have very heavy periods) I did a sneaky pregnancy test and got my BFP...

    Like SB said, spotting isn't necessarily your period. And even if it is then it's a good sign that your cycles aren't all mucked up. I'm still keep my fingers crossed for you!

    I wouldn't get your hopes up sorry, sounds word for word like my story, first month ttc off pill, all pg symptoms, then day 34 period came. Sorry to be bearer of this news, but I think should try wait and not get hopes up.
