Pregnancy Info HOME

this is the first time i've tried to conceive, so before now, my experience with pregnancy tests has always been hoping i didn't get myself knocked up. now that i want a positive, i was surprised by how sad i felt to see a negative result. i'm five days late, and i'm trying to wait a couple more days to use the second test that comes in the kit. my period has always been very regular, and i haven't had the monster PMS that usually precedes it, either. i'm secretly sure i'm pregnant, despite knowing that i shouldn't get my hopes up too high. i'll try to remember to let folks know how it turns out.

Hey, I'm actually on the contraceptive pill but displaying alot of symptoms that indicate pregnancy, like tender breasts, headaches etc. My period is now six days late and I've had two negative test results, one at home and one with the doctor; although she wants me to take another test next week incase my hormone levels aren't strong enough to be detected by the tests yet. Is this very common because I feel like I should have had a positive result by now since my last period began on 24th August, so if I am pregnant I would be about 4 weeks gone? Please let me know if anybody has had a similar experiance?

been trying for over a year but didn't really know how exactly, learned something new every month on ways to track. So, I would have to say within the last 6 months that I really understood and trusted my information I was receiving to do better. Started trying every other day in the last month. First day of last per. was 8/19, 28 day cycle. Been really weird the last two previous cycle of only 18-21 days cycle. Then, since the last per. am late. Which is unusual b/c I am usually pretty regular; i have my periods every month. It's been the longest since I remembered going almost 2 months. And that's because I also have lupus. I'm day 47, I believe, still no period. feeling burps, not so good apetite, a bit of regurgitating, heavy bb, bloated. 4 negative test since late. last tested today. Plan to check in with doc for advice. will keep you posted.

Hi ladies! I was having the same problem, I was a week late (however I just staretd) with 4 negative tests, so I called my doctor! I had just gotten off birth control and she said chances are you may not ovulate therefore you are not pregnant but also not having a period so to wait one more cycle then if your period does not start call the doc!! There may be medication you can go on to start ovulating again! She also said it is best to wait 2 cycles after BC to start trying!! =) Hope that helps!

I am 21 years old. My period is a week and 4 days late. I am experiencing nausea, swollen breast, tiredness, discharge the whole nine yards...... I have taken 2 hpt's both came back negative. Based on the date of the beginning of my last period, if I were pregnant I would be almost 6 weeks now, Is that not early enough to detect it? What should I do??

Katie...
I was in the same boat you are. I was about 2 weeks late when I tested and it was negative, but I was sick, sore breats, all of it and I put my dates together and it told me I would be about 11 weeks. When I went into my OB after I got a positive they did an ultrasound and I was only at 6 weeks, so never rely on the dates. You could be pregnant and it could be very early, so you can't tell. Give it a little more time and try again in about a week. Maybe it'll show up by then.

Thanks Heather I will. I guess I didn't think about it that way.

Hi all, I am 3 days late (not long I know) however I have taken tests, clear blue, first response all too expensive and come back negative I have just booked an appoitment with my GP for monday 8th dec for a BT. I feel pregnant, However I also want to be pregnant, and maybe its my mind playing games with me! does anyone else have the same problem? has anyone had a good outcome. I just want to know or my P to arrive so I can have a fresh chance.....

I am currently about a week late. I had a m/c on July 7th at 6 weeks. I had slight cramping a couple weeks ago and noticed very slight pink when I wiped one day around that time. Husband and I have been trying since the m/c but don't want to get our hopes up. I have been more tired than usual (hard to go some days without a nap), my sense of smell is in high gear, my nipples are sore, my appetite has been way off lately, I have been feeling bloated, and have mild cramping the past couple days. I have taken 3 hpt's and all came out negative. It really puts me at ease to see that many other women with symptoms similar to mine have also not tested positive right after a missed period. Will take another test next week. Good luck everyone!

I also want to add that I've been having frequent mild headaches and some bad lower back pain lately too.

Hey girls, I am soo glad I found this site I am 6 days late and have been really nauseas and today I slept 12 hours! I dont think ive EVER slept that long in my entire life! I have had like a white discharge for the last week or so and some days are heavier than others. I havent had like period cramps but I have had a little I guess you could say butterfly feeling in my lower abdomen. Ive been so emotional lately, like crying for no or stupid reasons. I have never been late on my period before. So heres the catch, I have taken 2 hpt, one two days before my period was due and one 3 days after I was late and they were both BFN I also had a blood test about a week BEFORE my period was due and that too was a BFN. I have a DR. appt on the 19th and I am going to take a HPT again on fri. If that is NEG and I dont start by the following wed. I will take one on Wed. and IF that is a BFN then I will just wait till my dr appt that friday. Just wondering if anyone has had these symptoms and gotten a BFN and still been PG?

Hello everyone. I'm really confused and not sure what's going on. I'm currently 1 week late and I've taken 5 HPT(all negative) and I went to the doctor today and he gave me a UPT but it was negative as well. I thought he'd give me a blood test but he didn't. I've never missed a period before and I'm not on any birth control. The doctor wrote me a prescription for some type of hormone, which I really don't feel comfortable taking, but he told me to wait a few more weeks and if my period doesn't come, take another HPT and if it's still negative, start taking the hormones and I should get a period. My only concern is that I've read enough posts on this website to know that it may be a strong possibility that I'm pregnant and it just didn't show up. I don't want to take any meds that can potentially harm a baby if I'm pregnant. I'm laying low for right now and hoping that I get my period . I would just like to know what's going on with me so I can move on with my day to day life.

Hi all, like many posts on this forum I'm seven days late, have symptoms such as headaches, cramps, more tired than usual (which is saying something for me!), Splitting headaches, nausea especially around 2-3.00pm, back ache, I feel like I've started then when i investigate nothing there, have taken a pregnancy test, which was negative, this only stressed me more and I keep crying at the slightest thing, I spoke to my mother the other day just to say hi and burst into tears on her, she, along with my boyfriend think I've gone mad.. I'd just like to say it's nice to know I'm not alone with these symptoms and I'm not going mad So a BIG THANK YOU to EVERYONE who has posted It really has calmed my nerves, I will take another Pregnancy Test and book a DRs appointment soon. Thanks again

hi all, so im now 7 days late for my period, ive taken 2 hpt and both have come back negative, the past week ive had really bad dizzy spells, my nipples are sore and i feel constantly bloated. emotionally im all over the place and basically cry at anything, its strange but i feel pregnant.... ive never been late by this much before maybe a day or 2 but never 8 days. im starting to get scared because if im not pregnant then why have i not had a period??? if im not i wish it would just come because its driving me insane!!! i just want to know whether these tests could be wrong and if anyone has had the same problem and later found out that they were pregnant????? x

Hi elle87,
I just wanted to post my story as well because I see that there are so many confused women out there. Today I went to the doctor because for the last week or so Ive been searching online.. confused about why I haven't started my period. My last period started on Thanksgiving nov 27. I usually have a pretty regular cycle 28-30 days. Either way today was day 40 since I had last started. I went to the doctor and immediately the areas he wanted to explore was the possibility of diabetes, thyroid, or some testosterone problem. He wasnt even interested in whether or not I might be pregnant since I have tried 5 HPT's and my answer was negative all 5 times. I have been feeling cramps in my abdomen, been having a clear pretty excessive discharge, and sore breasts, I have been more moody and emotional then i have in my entire life. Crying uncontrollably for the most unjust reasons. My boyfriend has suffered considerably from my irate reactions. Anyway Im going to go in for blood tests to make sure Im not suffering from any of the above.. but I still feel like these diagnosis.. cant explain what ive been feeling. My body is definitely going through something so i did of course request a blood test for pregnancy too. Hopefully soon my mind will be at peace. This is one of the hardest things ive been through and im sad that there are so many women just as confused as I am. So I wish you all the best of luck and just incase your period does not show, I suggest exploring all options just so you know everything is okay. And I will post an update on what is REALLY going on with me.

I am kinda freaking out. I am 15 days late and I have taken 3 hpt and they all are negative. I am never this late. I dont really feel any symptons, but not really sure if it would be too early. My boyfriend is being deployed to the middle east in two weeks so I am dying to know if I am so we can find out before he leave... What should I do??
