lol, maybe we are!!!! but i have thought the same thing myself, ive noticed a lot women dont let us know the outcome of their missed periods it would be interesting to find out how many are actually pregnant. im still 2 weeks late with negative results so i guess only time will tell! will ley ya know!!!! |
||

Not sure but I am 2 weeks late for my period taken 2 home pregnancy tests which came out negative and I am going to my doctor on Tuesday for a blood test. I will let you all know how it turns out. I am experiencing major pregnancy symptoms, and I just know I am pregnant. My Fiance thinks so too.... maybe it's just wishful thinking |

It doesn't help that drs look at you like you're nuts! Some of us haven't found a dr who will do a u/s unless you get a + test, which sometimes never happens ( especially if you are one of the rare women who still have periods when pregnant), We'll have to have the baby before we can update you, since the drs don't believe us! |

Right! What is the deal with this....I am two weeks late now, never late, symptoms, yada, yada....Dr. told me wait a few more days, test again...its insane! I have found little or no prof. literature on this phenominon. I would like to know the stats on this are and what % of women w/symptoms, missed cycles etc...go on to acutally be preg. Hpt's are supposed to be more that 99% effective??????? |

Wow...that would suck! I am also almost two weeks late with neg. hpts (of course). Good luck. |
||
|

hey ever think that the people who make the home pregnancy test make them so that they would turn out negative so they can buy more to keep testing? |

Hey everyone well i have missed 2 periods now and still get negative hpt's! Im suppose to be going to get a blood test! My last period was June 24th! |
||
|
||
|
a few people ive spoke to have had negative hpts for the first couple of months! then got a positive? makes ya think about the 99% doesnt it ? |
||
|
||

Well, I usually have a 28 cycle... I was 2 weeks late and still testing neg, I went to the doctor, who said from my symtoms I was probably pregnant, so I relaxed happily, only for my period to start the next day! :-( |

awww liz what a bummer! but im begining to think im going down that path now, just over 2 weeks late and negative again today!!! i think maybe for the first time in history im just gonna have a late period without being pregnant! there wasnt even the faintest of positives! |
||

I hope so for you Jules! Next time I am gonna not test till at least 2 weeks late... testing is torture isnt it? I was all over the place, feeling sick, tired, constipated, salivating, bloated, cravings, headaches... I was so sure.. and when the period came it was very light so then I wondered if it wasnt even my period! But I ovulated and am now having another period! |

ok still no sign of period , i have just read an interesting fact though(if it is fact?)on a website called FAQ farm it states that if you get a positive test result it is 99.9% accurate but.........if you get a negative result its only 50% accurate! whats all that about??? |

I am having the same thought. Maybe I'm just having a phantom pregnancy. I haven't had a period since late June, but am having a few pregnancy symptoms.(This is my second pregnancy.)However I have done 5 hpts, all negative. Going to doc next week for a blood test, hopefully that will clear everything up. Good luck to all of you. |

I might be a little early on joining up in this thread, but I am having the same problem. I KNOW I am pg'd! I have two children already...I've been there. I have 2 VERY faint positives with First Response Early, but I am not really digging the FR. I've heard so many bad things about it and I don't really trust it. I took an Equate (Walmart) today and got a neg. I was due for af today, but with my son, I tested pos with Equate on the first day of missed period. I have every symptom in the book, yet I can't get a REAL answer. I'm going to stop testing and wait it out. When I am 3 weeks late, I will go to the doc, but until then, I am on testing strike! |

If pregnant, I would be 27 weeks. My urine pregnancy tests are -- I haven't had a blood pt yet. |
