I also know what this is like. I'm now about 16 days late. Took a test at five days late--negative. Because I have had other complications and a history of irregular periods they've agreed to do an ultrasound. I'm a little worried. I thought I might have been pregnant last fall, but I don't think I was. I didn't have a period then for 11 weeks, and I should have known something then. After initially being tested at the doctor's office at a week late (urine), I never went back to the doctor, even after I didn't get my period for almost two more months. Had no pregnancy symptoms then except for being very tired and lots of frequent urination (but those things can also be from a hormone imbalance). I also had a little bit of breast pain and darker nipples. I got really sick (after 11 weeks) and then started bleeding for a couple of weeks straight. I had lots of clotting then but never passed anything that looked like a fetus. For the next three months I had almost constant bleeding. In April and May I had two normal cycles (with lots of pain though). Now the same thing is happening all over again--absence of cycle that is...I hate this. I just want to have a baby like everyone else. I don't feel pregnant right now. Most people on this forum swear up and down that they are because they have all the symptoms. I guess I'm a little more sleepy than usual, but not that much. I have noticed some breast changes again, and I have slight lower abdominal pain and discharge off and on. If I were pregnant I'd be about six weeks along. Believe me, I want this just as much as everyone else here, but I am also trying to look at the facts. I don't want to get my hopes up because I've been so disappointed the times before. My husband and I have been believing God for a child of our own for a little while. I'm trying not to freak out. I feel fine. I don't feel like anything is wrong. I just don't want to be let down again. My appointment is June 25 for my sonogram. I guess I'll find out the answers I need then. Best wishes to everyone else here.
