PMS or pregnancy symptoms?

Question

Me and my boyfriend have been TTC for a few months now. My cycles aren't regular they can go from 24 days up to 40 days. I'm currently on day 31, and getting negative tests. I have been having really sore breasts I usually get them before my period but this has been going on for a week or so now and doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm also experiencing really sensitive gums, and my gums are swollen and sore. Could these be symptoms? Getting fed up of buying tests and getting negative.

Answer

Okay, everyone on here is going to say if you have symptoms you will get a positive. Not true. Everytime I have been pregnant I have had symptoms and still won’t get a positive for a few days. Everyone is different. I have naturally lower HCG (before pregnancy because we always have it in our system) and so I have a lower base line so it takes longer for a test to pick it up for me. Much luck and baby dust!

Answer

Your breast symptoms are due to an increase of progesterone which is normal. Are you tracking and confirming ovulation each cycle? Wait until after you past cd40 to test just in case you ovulated later.

Answer

If they were pregnancy symptoms, your test would be positive by now. Sounds like PMS, even if it is different than normal.
