unusually late period but negative pregnancy test?

by ktl, Nov 01, 2003 12:00AM
Hi! It's my first time posting--hello everyone!
Just have a question that someone might be able to help with...
Ever since I got married I have had a VERY regular 28 day menstrual cycle--never late, never early.
We are trying to get pregnant, and today I am at least five to six days late for my period.
I did a pregnancy test this morning that came up negative.
How reliable is that result since I usually have such a normal cycle?
I don't have any other symptoms besides frequent urination and butterflies in my stomach that could just be from the excitement of the whole situation.
So I guess my question is whether or not it is "worth it" to take another pregnancy test; if so, when; or, what else could even be the cause of such a delay in my usually predictable period?
Thanks for any comments, etc!

hello there,
i would wait a little bit longer then get tested again, a blood test would be more accurate! that way you will know for sure!
when i first got pregnant i went to the dr and got tested every week each of them come back negative then i finally went in for a blood test and found out i was 5 and a half weeks along, a blood test would settle this for sure!
GOOD LUCK!!!

any kind of stress can delay your period

by CRISSYchris, Nov 02, 2003 12:00AM
In september i waas due to start my cycle on 9/11/03 I did not come on until 9/21/03 I thought I had concived also, so yes just wait it could just be cycle change, or stress.

by shannonSchiller, Nov 02, 2003 12:00AM
You start menst. about 14 days after ovulation, so if you ovulated late this cycle due to stress sickness or just because, your period would come late.  It could also mean your preggo!

I'm sure this isn't what you want to hear, but my last cycle was 36 days and the one before it was 29, so I kept testing thinking I was, but then AF reared her ugly head!  Anyway, don't keep wasting money on testing- wait a few days before testing again, or as suggested go to the doctor for a blood test.  Take care!

Hi,
Just putting my two cents in on this issue, because I'm having this problem right now. I'm 34 and have an 11 year old from a previous marraige.  My periods have been every 28 days, literally to the minute.  Now here I sit, nearly a full week late, and I break down to buy one of those HPT's and the thing comes out negative.  I keep feeling like I'm going to get my period and nothing...day after day.  I'll post again with the blood test results, because I'm going in for one tomorrow.  Obviously from the other posts, it can be possible to test negative on an HPT but then positive with a blood test (that's what I'm secretly hoping).  When I took a preg test for my son years ago, I swear the 2nd line showed up even before the urine hit the stick! LOL

by faithful7403, Nov 25, 2003 12:00AM
I am kind of in the same boat. My last menstral cycle was in September .. and it is now Nov. 25 and still nothing. I feel pregnant, but I just took a blood test yesterday and it came up negative. How odd huh? I don't know what to do about it. I know that I am pregnant and definitely feel it. I have had one prior pregnancy, and hope this is another one. Can blood tests be wrong ?

by Frenchy_13, Nov 26, 2003 12:00AM
To: faithful7403
I think  His gorgeous Angel is living proof that tests can come up negative and you could still be pregnant.  She first posted on 11/10 saying the tests were negative then posted on 11/21 saying that she is 3 months pregnant.  So, there is always hope.  Good luck and keep us posted.

by laziah, Dec 07, 2003 12:00AM
My last period was on October 29, 2003 my periods prior to that were Sept.29,2003 and Aug 31,2003, they all lasted for 5 days. I tracked my fertile days for three months and was sure that I ovulated on Nov 12,2003 I had all the ovulating symptoms. I also had unprotected sex on Nov 11,2003. I went to the doctor on Dec.1,2003 and they gave me both a urine and blood pregnancy test that came back negative. I've been having mild cramps from time to time but I really don't feel pregnant. My stomach is still flat and I always feel empty other than that I'm normal. What are my chances of still being pregnant?

by Jany, Dec 20, 2003 12:00AM
Hello, My last period was on November. I never miss a period. I feel different, so I think that I am pregnant. I have been with nausea, back pain and a lot of things. I got two blood test negative.  Now, my doctor prescribed me the medroxyprogest 10mg. If I take the pills, it will risk my pregnancy.

by Joanna30, Dec 23, 2003 12:00AM
I feel quite comforted to read I'm not the only one with this problem! i've always had v regular periods, every 32 days, but last month I was 5 days late. This month I started using the Persona hormone testing device that tells you when you ovulate and according to that I ovulated (I could see the blue strips on the stick clearly) on the 2th or so - three weeks ago!!! I'm now on Day 39 of my cycle (no period although I have sore breasts and am grouchy which is what happened last month before coming on). Finally this-morning I did a pregnancy test and it was negative. I really don't think I'm pregant but where in the world has my period gone???

I am 25 married only for a year and not really mentally prepared for a pregnancy, but my period is a week late and I just did a pregnancy test which can out negative.I have no other symptoms like nausea ets. but dono what to expect!!
Its the holiday season and all labs are closed and I dont kwno how to handle this curosity!!
Thanks for the usefull comments as they make me feel there are more people out there in my situation.

by suisha, Jan 03, 2004 12:00AM
well you would not believe how delighted I was to stumble accross this thread.  I too missed my period last month I was due Dec 13th and still to this day nothing.  I am trying to fall pregnant but took 2 home preg test followed up by a blood test, all NEGATIVE!!  Where has AF gone?  I am always 31 day cycle, never missed a period in my life, not stressed or worried about anything, I had all classis symptoms of pregnancy but strangely when all tests came back negative the symptoms dissapeard which makes me think it was in my head.  Being caught up in the holiday season I really did forget about ovualtion and trying to fall pregnant so would ahve been the perfect time to actully conceive without putting much stress on it.  I have been trying for 9 months now amd really thought this was it!  I begin to wonder after 9 months if it hasnt happend yet is it going to??  In Australia where I live they will not begin looking at fertility problems until 12 months of genuine trying so I can only wait.  I dont feel at all like my period is going to start where has it gone.  I was wondering if you still ovulate if you miss a period, does anyone know?  I have been doing BD every other day just to make sure I dont miss an ovulation. hhmmmm  wondering ........

by rhuddi, Jan 05, 2004 12:00AM
My period is regular to the second. We have been trying for a baby so i have been monitoring my ovulation dates and we had intercourse at exactly the right time. And my period was late. I thought we had hit the jackpot but we did 2 tests and one was negative, the other positive. Then a week later i started to bleed. The doctor says  probably we got a fertilized egg but it failed to implant. Now im worried i'll never have a baby.

by Lucy12, Jan 06, 2004 12:00AM
Hello, I am kinda in the same boat with everyone else.  I am very regular with my cycle. I am kinda of confused...on Dec. 7th my fiance and I had sex and we did slip up....I came on my cycle which was early the following day....it was very light pink..I always stay on for 5 to 6 days, but only stayed on for 3 days.  So counting up from the 8th of Dec.  I should have stared my cycle on Jan. 4th...now I am two days late...I have also taking some test and they all came out negative.  This same thing happened when I was pregnant with my daughter...I took several pregnacy test and they were all negative....I went to the doctor and they told me that I was four months preg....I do plan to go to the doctor this week, but could I still be pregnant....I also have all the symtoms.  My breast are sore, I have gained a ton of weight, I crave sweets, I go to the restroom every 5 to 10 minutes...What do you think?

hi, I have always had a normal cycle.  I mean it may have came a day late or a day early, but I was suppose to have my period around the 3rd and it is now the 9th and nothing.  I have had unprotected sex lately, but I took a home pregnancy test and it came out negative.  But the thing is I am having bad cramps and grouchy and still there is no blood.  I don't know what is going on or what to.

by Hoping21, Jan 14, 2004 12:00AM
My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant - charting ovulation, ect - and now I am 12 days late!  I have taken a pregnancy test almost every day since my period was late.  They have all been negative.  It is very frustraiting, not to mention expensive.  I want to make a doctor's appointment, but I am scared that my period will start.  Any advice?

by Kels, Jan 15, 2004 12:00AM
So great to find this site - My story is that I was diagnosed with PCOS about 20years ago, (I'm 39yrs now) but for the last 5 years have been as regular as clockwork.  In 2001, I fell preganant by 'accident', thinking that it wouldn't happen 'naturally', my husband and I were of course delighted.  Our daughter is now 2.5yrs old and we decided to start trying for No. 2 in the Dec 03 cycle, as I know exactly when I'm ovulating, can read my mucas etc. My last period was on 25 Nov 03, it is now Jan 16th 04 and haven't had a period since 25/11/03.  I went for both a urine and blood test 1st week Jan and both were negative.  I have been very crampy, boobs feel full and have been extremely tired, plus my abdomen seems 'swollen' and feel sure I might be pregnant, but no real medical evidence to prove it!!??.  I did a home urine test yesterday, and it was negative again !  feeling down and not really sure what's going on as this seems highly irregular, particularly given that we were 'officially trying in Dec and no period since ?!.  Plan to go back to the Dr at the end of Jan 04.  I have heard so many stores about negative tests (both urine and blood) when people actually were pregnant ! Any comments/feedback welcome.

by jinny, Jan 17, 2004 12:00AM
Hi everyone,
    I am 5 days late on my period, have tender breast, and crampy.  I had very light spotting between periods, approximately 10 days ago.  I took a HPT and it was negative.  I am always like clockwork and have NEVER been late, except for my first pregnancy 7 years ago, which resulted in miscarriage.  I am confused and concerned because I am 35, I have blocked fallopian tubes and my chances of becoming pregnant are through IVF.  I guess I am hoping for a miracle but again, I am also concern because if I am not pregnant, could I be experiencing Ovulation failure? Please share your thoughts

by Alexamia, Jan 17, 2004 12:00AM
Thank God I am not alone waiting! I am in the same boat. My period was supposed to be on Jan. 5 still I am late. I had done more than 14 pregnancy test with the same results negative, My appt. with the doctor is on Jan. 27. I cant't hardly wait. I am 41 years old waiting to have my second baby. Should I give up!
I want to know if anyone got good news after waiting this long?
Good luck!

by manman, Jan 20, 2004 12:00AM
I am so glad I found this site. I had a misscarriage in October 2003, so my husband and I waited until I had 2 normal periods before we tried again. My last period was December 12 and I am very regular(every 28 days)so I am about 13 days late. I have taken 3 pregnancy test all have come up negative. I have been very tired the last 3 weeks and my breast have felt very full and now they look extremly vainy. Is it possible to be this late and so many negative test and still be pregnant?

by cybasprite, Jan 31, 2004 12:00AM
Hello all

I have four children and am now late on my period (around 5 days late) I usually have fairly regular periods, however the last two weeks I have been suffering from swollen breasts, extreme nausea at various times in the day, exhaustion and an aversion to alcohol (this only usually happens when I am pregnant).

You would think after having four children I would 'know' the feeling of pregnancy and I do, but have taken two hp tests and both come up negative, had some cramping and very slight blood stained clear mucus on the day my period should have arrived but nothing else.   This is driving me insane, my body is telling me i'm pregnant but the tests are saying no, please can anybody offer any advice.

many thanks.

by Patience§Sean*7/3/03, Feb 02, 2004 12:00AM
Wow, I'm so happy I've found this site.  I have a 7 month old son, and when I found out I was pregnant with him, I had the same symptoms as I will be describing below.  

I'm currently on day 38, and no AF yet.  I usually get my period anywhere from day 29-31.  I've had TERRIBLE heartburn lately, extremely emotional (alot more than usual) and of course late period.  I've taken two HPTs and they both came back negative.  I'm thinking to wait a week, then take another.  If I don't get my period, and not pg, I will contact my dr.

I too am sailing in the same boat. Have had regular periods all along but am now on day 46 and still no sign of it happening.

My pregnancy tests are negative and I havent been feeling very pregnant. I have a 2yr old son and when I conceived him I got a positive result on a HPT on day 37. My GP is not interested in even doing a blood test. Cant really stand the suspense any longer...any suggestions....

by Kittykatkat, Feb 23, 2004 12:00AM
i'm really glad i found this post - i am in the exact same situation and you all sound so positive that it gives me hope.

I am a 28 day cycler by the book, O on day 14 and all that good stuff. Well this month AF decided to play peek a boo. She was due 2/18 and it's now 2/23. I'm 16 DPO today and am still getting BFN on HPTs (early response ones too!) With DS I took the HPT at 22 DPO just because it was the holidays and I didn't have time to obsess like I do now LOL.

I've thought I was getting AF on 2/21 - spot of pinkish reddish on TP and then nothing but 2 brown TPs after that. I am scared to go have a BT because I don't want it to be absolutely negative yet...this way I still have some hope.

Anyway, I'm just glad that I'm not alone. Thanks :)

I was also glad to come across this thread.  I would love to hear any updates on how things have turned out for other.  I am 30 and a mom of 2 boys.  I have had fertility problems in the past.  Blocked tubes so I am definately concerned that if I am pregnant that it could be a tubal pregnancy.  I am only 6 days late but with the other 2 pregnancies had early positives.  Now I took a home test when I was 3 days late- negative and a blood test 5 days late- negative too.  They wanted to start me on provera but I wanted to do a little research first.  I was having many pregancy symtoms along with the late period such as feeling tired all the time, nasea,and my husband and family even said that I had the pregnancy glow.  Then I got the call today, very frustrating.  Then I started felling like I might start.  This evening, I had very light spotting - would have missed it if I was not looking, but nothing ever since.  I have a call in to another doctor for a second oppinion too.  But would love to hear what has happened in similar situations.  Could I be pregnant even with the neative test and very light spotting.  Could it be a misscariage or a tubal pregnancy, or just a late period.  I am so confussed.  Thanks for all who respond and can relate!  Good luck to all!

I don't care if the forum staff reads this or not! I am asking the fellow women (and men) to maybe help me out with this!
I had a missed miscarraige back in Sept. at 12 weeks pregnant. My husband and I have been trying to concieve since with no avail. :(I have had regular periods since I was 14 years old. Even after my miscarraige. Here I am 3 days late, feel pregnant and have still not seen an inkling of a sign that my period is on it's way. I have taken 4 tests and they're all negative. I'm not stressed. Has anyone out there been pregnant and had false negatives? I'm looking for a light at the end of this tunnel. Anyone have any suggestions?

by VSG, Mar 16, 2004 12:00AM
Hey !!! i have a small question to post.

My girl has missed her periods by 12 days. i am excited and she is tensed. Is she carrying? is she pregnant? can any one answer this for me? She does have butterflies in her stomach yet not having her cycles or no bleeding as in the regular menstural cycle?

Hi.  Am turning 43 next month and having been trying for a baby for more than 3 years but no success.  Have been posted to the Middle East and decided to try my luck again.  Took Clomid for more than 4 months, with injections to stimulate ovulation and follicle built-up.  Even tried AI.  No luck!  Had my tubes tested last month and it was found that the left one was completely blocked ..... and that was my best ovary!  However, am 2 weeks overdue .... and I am never late!.  Took 2x HPT which were negative and followed up with blood test ... still negative.  Do not feel signs of monthly starting but feel very tired and irritable and my breasts are sore.  Dr sent me for blood test & results showed LH 6.37 and FSH 6.11 (think latter may be in that I have been taking follicle supplements).  Dr stated that this combination even excluded invitro and sent me off with a sympatheic pat on the back! I wondered if I had perimenopause but don't show the symptons.  Help!

by very fustated, Mar 17, 2004 12:00AM
hello! Just wanted to know has anyone else had a missed period that : normally works like clockwork, home test were negative, has sever headaches, always hungry, some light pain in lower back, stomach and legs. I really feel pregnant. Is is possible the home test are not that reliable? Please help and thanx for reading!

by p3cosa, Mar 19, 2004 12:00AM
To: very frustrated
How many days late are you?  If you are, it may still be too early for the HCG level to get detected in a HPT.  Have you thought about getting blood work done?

Some women don't show that they are pregnant in a HPT till they are many weeks far into the pregnancy.  However, try not to stress about it too much (even though I know its difficult) because our minds have a way of playing tricks on us.

I wanted to be pregnant so badly about 5 months ago and had all the symptoms, I didn't even get my AF which is always on time.  Went for blood work and all and thats when I got the definite answer that I wasn't.  The next day AF came along and I was about 9 days late.

Hang in there and the best way to find out is to go to the doctor and check!

Keep me posted!
Hope this helps.

i having the same problem only, Ive never been late. but i have recently got off the patch, it's been five wks, and i had sex 2 days before i started having some bleeding but the bleeding lasted 1day. I've never been late and Ive never had a period for 1 day even before i started taking the patch.Could i be pregnant, and when can i take a test, I can't wait to see if my period will come.

by DaydraBrown, Mar 28, 2004 12:00AM
I am also wondering where my period is. I am 27, it is usually right on 28-29 day mark and now I am on day 33, almost one week late. I feel all the symptoms or that it may come on any second. Light cramping, also soreness everywhere. I have taken a few home tests and they are all negative so i will get a blood test this week if I still have no bleeding. I wonder how accurate the home tests are, I drink a lot of fluids and wonder if i dilluted the urine so the hormone isn't showing up on the test if I am indeed positive/pregnant.

by scared2004, Mar 28, 2004 12:00AM
My period is 2 months late 5 days after a miss period I took a hpt that was negative.Then i went and had a blood test taken it was also negative So now it has been 2 missed cycles and Iam schedule for a nother blood test Iam actively try to have a baby so now Iam a fraid thant if this 2nd blood test is negative that my dr. will give me somthing to start my period and there for abort my baby. I will write again for all concerned

by p3cosa, Mar 29, 2004 12:00AM
To: scared2004
I know that it is difficult but please try not to stress about it too much.  You doctor will not give you something that will abort your baby.

You may suggest that since you haven't had your period for 2 cycles to ask your doctor to do an ultrasound. But if you took a blood test recently and it came out negative then you defintely are not pregnant.
You just might not be ovulating the way you should.  Have you been using any birth control that may still be in your system?

If you are not ovualting then your doctor would give you something to help you regulate your system, not to harm you.

Hope this helps.
Keep me posted.

I need some advice because I’m getting a little concerned. Since having started the pill (about a year and a half ago), I have been 28 days to the day (sometimes it even seems like the hour). But last month (Feb), I took a couple of pills extremely late in the day and I did have sex during my inactive pill week… I didn’t even think about it until my period came late. Well I thought I had it on the day, but it turned out to be spotting (and I usually have very heavy periods with a lot of cramping and bloating so I know that this wasn’t my period) and after a day or so with very light spotting, it went away. I tend to have spotting mid-month too so it didn’t really worry me – except that my actual period never came. I’ve been peeing constantly and have been having a little bit of light cramping which doesn’t feel like normal period cramping so I took a HPT 3 days after I was due and it came up negative. I will probably try it again in 3 or 4 days and if it comes out negative again and I still don’t have my period, I’ll see a doctor. Has anyone else had this happen before… missing a period and spotting a little instead? What did it turn out to be? I haven’t been very stressed lately, but it could always be something as simple as that. Thanks!

Hi all,
I have a unique situation.. at least I thought I did till I logged on to this page... I had my last period from Jan. 14 thru the 16th 2004... and unusually light one... and since then I have not had one.. TODAY IS APRIL 13th 2004. I am not on birth control, and have not been having unprotected sex. I have taken 2 urine pregnancy tests, both negative. i really have no clue what to do. I am a college student, and I do not have medical coverage outside of the health center on my campus... however, they are good for nothing there, and have not been able to give me any answers. I am totally open to any information that can be offered, or any suggestions as to what I should do... I don't feel pregnant, but I am worried what else could be going on. email me at liz_ripepi***@**** please please please!

Hi,

I am 23 years old and trying to ttc for a 3 months now with no luck. My periods or irregular but I usually have it every month.. but in July it didn't come at all and I had no pms symptoms or anything cause I usually do with the cramps and all.. So I took a three hpt and all were negative. Then on August 1st I has some light pinkish discharge so I assumed I was going to start. It went from pink to light red then brown and it only lasted for 2 and half days and my periods are always heavy and last anywhere from 5-7 days. So 2 days after the bleeding stopped, I took another hpt and this one also came out neg. I've been tired, nauseous and frequent urination. What the heck is wrong with my body? I wanted to go to the doctor and have me and my fiance checked out to see if we are healthy enough to concieve but I don't have any health insurance. Is anyone in the same boat as me? Tell me there's hope!

Thanks.

Hi i'm 24 i'm 14 days late today i've never had a late period so this is unusual for me i've taken 3 test all came back neg. I've been to the doc's he told me to leave it until the end of this week and try it again i'm scared to incase it comes back neg again. I asked for a blood test he told me to wait at least 2 weeks but i can't wait that long. I've had no signs that i'm pregnant except a slight pain in my lower back at night always round about bed time and i would normally get pains a week before my period is coming and i've had none of those signs! Has anyone ever experienced this or have any advice for me?

Hi I am really worried because I am on day 42 of my cycle and I still have no period.  My husband and I were planning on starting next month TTC so this month we only had protected sex (and not very much of it at all) so I find it hardly unlikely that I am pregnant....but then where is my period?  I have done several things this month that would make it veyr unhealthy for me to be pregnant right now...but could they also be causes for my missed period?  I went to a party where I had four vodka shots and I have been drinking wine with dinner almost every night...things I was planing to not do at all starting next month.  I also competed in a Tough guy competition which involves climbing obstacles, swiming in disgusting muddy water and flinging myself over things.  I also donated bloodon day 15...woudl this cause me not to ovulate???  Any answers are much appreciated...thank you.

I haven't been regular for over a year. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 11 months. The longest my cycle has been is 42 days. Today is the 76th day. I've taken five pregnancy tests, all are negative. I go to the doctor on Aug 31st for a blood test. I'll let you know the result, maybe it will help someone out with a decision. I just hope nothing is seriously wrong. If there is something wrong where I can't have kids we will adopt. If you are pregnant and don't want your baby, PLEASE don't abort. There's someone out there that can't have a baby and would be over joyed to adopt. Getting pregnant and having a baby is such a blessing. Those of you who are pregnant, enjoy every second!

Hello... wow... a lot of people are having the same problem as I am, thats  conforting to know. I am engaged to be married I have a son from a previous marriage and my fiance has a daughter from his previous relationship so I don't think there are any fertility problems. I stoped taking the pill a month ago I had my period on August 5th and it was normal it lasted for 5 days I have a very regular 28 day cycle and nothing has changed... However now I was supost to get my period on september 2nd and it is not the 5 and there is still nothing there. I have taken 5 home pregnancy tests hoping for a positive result and 3 our of 5 were negative and the other 2 were invalid results... I went to the doctor this morning and he gave me a urine test and it too came out negative and he said it could be stress delaying my period. I haven't been feeling well... verry tired, hungrier then normal, gained a bunch of weight. What should I do? I am going to go back to the doctors on monday if there is still nothing and ask him for a blood test! But I still don't understand this is it possible to be pregnant with hCG levels so low that they are not detectable? My fiancee swears im pregnant but two months ago i missed carried triplets. we are not using fertility drugs either. Thanks

by rose2007, Sep 16, 2007 12:56PM
To: boomarang2
sounds l like you might be pregnant. sometimes the hpt is always negative and the blood test will come up positive. it is rare that some people have experienced this problem. the dark clotting and creamy discharge, nauseous and cravings are the sypmtoms of pregnant. once u take a prenatal vitamins, this will help eliminate nauseated and its normaly to have strange cravings. See you doctor soon and get a blood test to confirm. Good Luck

Your period might be skipping because you are working out so hard and stressing out. Maybe when the competition is over, work out lightly, take it easy and keep eating healthy diet. Try not to stress. If this does not help or did not come in few weeks or a month after the competition, might want to try the doctor just to be safe. Hope it goes well with your competition.

by rose2007, Sep 16, 2007 01:02PM

Sounds like you might have endometrosis or pcos (polycystic ovary syndrome) I have both. I have experienced missing periods. getting lower back stabbing pain a week before my period comes. Thought I was pregnant but came up negative. Talk to your doctor about testing your hormones, if its high, its positive for the pcos, it is treatable if you take the antidiatbets medication to shrink the small cysts and make them go away. the back pain will be gone but will have to keep up with the diet and exercise. As women get older, our bodies change alot, we have to keep up with our body otherwise it will be out of control. Talk to you doctor soon as possible to test for pcos, glucose, anything else that might be related to it?
Let me know how it comes out?

by rose2007, Sep 16, 2007 01:06PM
To: doughty
go see the doctor soon as possible, the blister should be treated right away without getting it bigger. and ask the doctor what is it? does this cause you to skip your period? The blister sounds like it might be related to yeast infection, im not sure, my friend had it and treated it right away by oral medication. She was fine after that, she had problems missing her  periods in her past.

do you have history of bladder infection? If not, that could be it but check with your doctor. Check for the urine test for pregnancy test, have the blood draw. good luck

by rose2007, Sep 16, 2007 01:16PM
Now, about me. I dont know if anyone has this same problem as me. I have missed my period for 2 months now. My last day of period was July 9th. The urine test for pregnancy was positive once. Got the blood test, it was negative. Went to ob specialist, the urine test was neg, the blood test was neg. I was experience cramping, not hungry hungry, I felt some movement. Still no period for a whole month, went back to my doctor, we did some test on hormone levels and glucose. I am not obese but im slightly overweight and need to lose 50 lbs. am working on that right now. But the hormone test came back positive, I have pcos Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, the biggest cyst on my right is 1.26cm. They dont know how many cysts i have on my right side as i normally feel sharp pain but my left ovary is fine. Doctor put me on prescription of provera for 10 days. The last day was friday and my period never came. I am worried and today im experiencing tight cramping ever, i could barely walk, no period. Anyone have experience this problem before and have gotten better, please send me a message of what to do or what happened? I am planning to see my doctor tomorrow if my period never arrives as I am worried and stressed out from school. I have been practicing breathing treatment two times a week for 10 days and am relaxed as much as I am. Thank you, please send me a message if you have any questions. I never had kids but most my of friends have kids and have experienced with them. One of my best friend is trying to get pregnant. I am praying for her to get a baby she wants before she is 30 due to back problems as she was growng up. Take care.

by rose2007, Sep 16, 2007 01:21PM
oh forgot my glucose is a healthy 92 as my doctor was shocked as my weight, i think it has to do with muscles. I used to play tennis straight 4 years and was able to keep up with working out. i weighed 150 lbs at that time when i graduated from high school, i was very slim and musclar. but stopped working out about 5 years ago. I didnt know that i have pcos that would make me gain weight. Doctor thinks I had pcos for a while, it got this big. my left ovary volume is almost a 6 and my right ovary volume is a 14. There is a difference that concerned my doctor and trying everything to get it treated right away. im currently taking antidiabetes to shrink the pcos. might be a while and have always been on a healthy diet. the problem is working out as i dont have the time. Need to make it more effort for my sake.

I am 19 yeas old. I've been on birth control for 3 years and have a very regular cycle, down to the hour. I am now two days late and im peeing constantly. I also have light back pain. I know its not stress, this is actually the most stress free i have been in a long time. I took two hpts and they both said negative but still no period? I missed a couple pills and was taking antibiotics so it is very likely i could have gotten pregnant. I called my doctor and i'm waiting for a call back to take a blood test. I'm really worried, any ideas?

by brittanyt3, Sep 20, 2007 01:43PM
oh i also had light spotting about a week before my period should have come. I thought this was just spotting from the birth control could it have been implantation bleeding?

i have a crazy period . My husband and i are ttc and my last peiod was aug. 10th so i am about 2 weeks late.  I have received 2 negative pregnancy tests. However last night i got some light spotting and cramps. I have researced this and it sounds like it may be " implantation bleeding " but that usually occurs when you are scheduled to get your period. It is very confusing and i think i am adding more stress and perhaps delaying my period even more.

Hi,
  I am 26 years old and married for a year. I am currently sexually inactive even after marriage. I used to get my periods dart on time(28 days cycle) but this time its past two months. Still no sign. I know its crazy to get a pregnancy test as I am 100% sure I cant be pregnant if I am sexually inactive, but still I took the test to just eliminate the possibilities. It came negative. Currently I am like getting few spottings and the old blood(dark brown discharge) occasionally. And nothing other than that. Could somebody guide me on what to do in such a case.
Thanks in advance.

for about a month I thought I have been. All day nausea, dizziness, FATIGUE, and in the past week i feel like my boobs have suffered a major baseball bat attack. i have had many other of the preggo symptoms.But two HPTs were negative and the lab blood test was too. Then the doctor suggested I had diabetes or low thyroid, and those came back  negative. I have an appointment for an abdominal ultrasound to see if it is anything else. But my cycle is usually 22- 25 days and sometimes (twice a year) 28 days. I am now at 33. I realize that is not alot, but stress has always brought it early (Prom day, wedding day, etc.) never late! I'll try and post back.

Hi Ladies. I am having the same issue. My last period was on August 26th. My periods are always right on time. My last cycle was 33 days, and so was the one before that. Now it's October 3rd, and I am 6 days late and on day 39 of my cycle.
I have taken three HPTs and all have come up negative. I have been dizzy, naseous, my breasts are tender, I have been peeing a lot, I am very moody, my appetite is all screwy (I had saltine crackers with peanut butter for dinner the other day), my skin has broken out more than normal, I have had headaches, and I'm tired all the time.
I haven't change anything about my diet, my exercise, I'm not sick or stressed out.
I'm starting to be come really confused, as this is the latest my period has been.
Any ideas or advice for me?
Thanks ladies!!

Oh my gosh, my last period was Aug 25th and I am late... I have taken 3 tests and all were neg. So I am going to get blood work done to be sure...I am always irregualr and I am on my 2nd cycle of Clomid. I am not depending on the fact that I am late becuase I am always late, sometimes 2 monthe. But the symptoms that I am having are not normal for me at all...mild cramps like period cramps but very faint, pain in breasts and nausea...and the other day for the first time I really thought I was going to throw up from the smell of the Chinese my coworkers were eating...My nausea seems like it is getting worse, and I feel dizzy all the time. It usually starts after I eat beeafast and then I don't want to eat anything else. I think the best thing for us it to get the blood work to be sure...

I'm going to wait a few more days. I think if it aunt flo doesn't come by Monday, I will call the doc. Let me know the out come of your blood work.
I'm a big chicken when it comes to getting blood drawn, so the longer I can put it off, the happier I will be. Plus, I know that the minute I go to the doctor, my period will come (Murphey's law for sure)!

Good luck!

Im  26 and Im not sure wat is going on w/me my last cycle was on Aug. 18. I have taken 2 HPT and both were negative, Im confused. What should I do?

by Terra97701, Oct 05, 2007 08:52AM
To: sunshinebabe
How long are your cycles normally? 28 days? 30 days? This will give you a better idea of when you SHOULD have started, then you can detirmine how late you are. My cycles are typically 33 days, and I am now on day 41, so I am 8 days late. I would suggest making an appointment with your doc to get a blood hCG level done. These are more accuate than a urine hCG test. I am going in today to get it done, so we'll see what happens.
Do you have any of the classic pregnancy signs?
Good luck!!

I called my doc. to get a blood test done, and she told me no. Keep in mind, I am 29 days late! She said it is not "medically necessary to have a blood test done if my home tests are coming up negative." I think it's ****, but I dunno.

I would check with your doc and see if you can have a blood test done. It could be that you've just missed a period for no reason.

Hi im new to this site and so far its been very comforting ...I am two months late on my period but its been three months since my period so I guess tech im 3 months late I don’t know but anyways I took pregnancy tests all were negative and I took two blood tests each week all negative and now my doctor put me on progesterone for 10 days I took it once then stopped right away because I was worried I might be Prego...I have an ultra sound this Friday to see whats causing all this and im hoping im pregnant...is it possible that I could still be pregnant and get negative tests? And if so why that is some women don’t show up? I will keep all you informed and give you tips from my doctor this Friday…also ever since I had my first child I have had heavier more regular periods and no more painful cramping why is that?? My doctor says it could be fibroids but I also have a hormonal imbalance so I don’t know what to think

Hey everyone, sorry it has taken me so long to get back on here with my news but I have been busy. Anyways I was talking about how my urine test was negative and then my blood test was negative and my doctor didnt really want to send me for an ultersound say it was likley just stress, however I told him I couldnt be sure until I had the ultersound so he sent me and sure enough the ultersound came back positive for pregnancy, everything looks normal and healthy, I was 7 weeks and now almost 13 and am going to the prenatal clinic in two weeks. Someone on here said she had missed two periods and her doctor was giving her some kind of medication, just be carful make sure you have an ultersound to prove your not pregnant before taking medications for what could be the problem. also this proves it is possible to have a pregnancy with little to no hcg level too low to detec anyways. My doctor told me it wasnt possible to have a negative blood test and urine test but postive ultersound. However I just proved to him it is possible, rare but possible so be careful please and make sure you KNOW for sure your not pregnant before you let your doctor give you medication for what could be causing your late or missed periods. Thanks for the support and good luck to everyone elese... if you want more information please feel free to contact me at kimberly_boyes***@**** and good luck to everyone!

Thank you for the update!  Knowing that HCG levels could be low to nil makes a huge difference to me, Im pretty sure I am but after 2 negative tests, thought maybe I was crazy LOL.  My family thinks I could be, but my BF is a nurse, and thinks its just duress.  I have had  a few other symptoms such as while making food, thought Id upchuck at the sight and smell.  Pain in my breasts off and on, but not consistantly.  Ive had 2 miscarriages and 1 full term (daughter is now 8).  This maybe my last hope at ever having another child so Im hopeful, but not overly anxious.  With her my gut knew almost as soon as we had sex I was in fact pregnant, even knew it was a girl.  This time feels the same but cant get it to show up on a test.  Im 30 yrs old, and dont want her to be an only child.  So keep your fingers crossed for me

I am a happy mother of 5 beautiful children ranging from 17 to 1. I have been married to the father of these wonderful children for 16 years and last month my husband had a vesectomy (vasectomy). I was very disappointed and would have had another child. We listened to many lecture about don't we know what causes this and are you ever gonna stop. I am truly greatful and know that I am so lucky but still feel so sad. Well now to make things more crazy I am very very regular and my period is very heavy, this month it was only a couple hours long and so light and light in color also. I took a home test because I do feel pregnant but it came up negative. It has only been a couple days past my expected period so I don't want to keep testing and have false hope. Life is hectic and I wouldn't have it any other way. I up at two am since they are all asleep just to get things done but thats my wonderful life.

Can someone please help me. I have had my tubes tied for seven years. I have had every symptom of feeling pregnant. I have gained weight in my stomach can't wear any of my jeans. I have had bad pelvic pain can someone please help me?

My period is 8 days late. I am a 29-31 day-er, never earlier or later. We are trying to get pregnant, and I am scared because they did an ultrasound last week and the tech found a small cyst on my R ovary.(They can not tell if you are pregnant by ultrasound until you are at least 6 weeks along, which I would not be yet.) I've taken two pregnancy tests, but both were negative. It makes me nervous to be this late and I have all the symptoms of being pregnant,(I have had two previous kids) the sore breasts, moody as all-get-out, and the feeling  like I am about to start any day. I think I will call my OB, to schedule and exam with a blood panel work-up to make sure everything is all right. Any ways, please post when you all find out whether you find something out or not!

I know it is frustrating when TTC. My husband and I decided to try after the new year. I got my period Feb 5th but not since. Now i'm 6 days late and all tests are negative. I bought a whole bunch of the early pregnancy tests that are suppose to detect 20 mlu's of the hormone but still nothing. After all the reading i've done and stories above it seems quite frequent that pregnancy tests are failing us. I guess my recommendation to all in this place is go get a blood test. That's what I am going to do Monday. If you don't have insurance there are programs in the community like Planned Parenthood to help you. Or you can usually walk into your dr's office or make an apt for a pregnancy test. Good luck as we all cross our fingers in hope!

As I read all of these little blurbs I really feel at ease.  I'm 25 yrs old and think that I may be pregnant.  My last period occurred on Jan 27th, and I am usually about 23 day cycle, I could almost set my watch to when I would get my period,( I have not been under any stress or on any meds to mess around with my cycle.)  However, it is now March 10th, still with no period, no spotting, a few days I thought that I was gettin my period but when I went to the washroom NOTHING.  I've done 2 HPT and both came back negative, I have had some pregnancy symptoms, extremely tender breasts,(my nipples are hard constantly, I was always the kinda person who only had hard nipples when I was cold) lower back pain, nausea sometimes with vomitting and sometimes without.  I've never been pregnant before so I'm not sure what it would feel like, but by the sounds of things on here it doesn't much matter if you have been or not.  Just my luck I have my yearly dr. appt this week(thursday) so HOPEFULLY I will know more then.  Thanks for the help everyone,

I will know more by next week hopefully.

I was also in this situation 2 year before. I took a HPT 3 days after I missed my period and it was negative. I did a blood test 2 days after and it came out positive. I took HPT after getting blood test report(its 7 days after I missed my period ) and it was positive.
Nothing to worry or tensed about. Urine pregnancy tests may not detect low levels of HCG hormone , but it can be detected by a blood test.

Hi!! I love this site! Lets see, I'm a regular 28day cycle...and im almost always stressed so thats never really been a factor in my menstrual cycle. However, last month my period came 4 days early and lasted 7 days!! I've never been early in my life (I'm 28) and my periods have never ever lasted longer than 5 days. Also, two weeks to the day before my period started, I spotted. And continued to spot maybe 3-4 times up until my early period started. I took HPT two days after the first spotting (negative), took another HPT two days after my abnormally long and early period (negative)...now this I month I was due to start my period two days ago. Took HPT this morning and got the lightest negative line I've ever seen. My symptoms include mild cramping, fatigue, shortness of breath, lower back pain when I'm sitting, and I'm freakin emotional!!! I feel slightly bloated and have more gas than I care to admit. Another weird symptom is a weird taste in my mouth. Has anyone experienced that??? Recently divorced and never got PG by ex, although we used no protection. But I've got a new BF and I've heard that there are fertility compatability issues??????? Anyhow, my story is similar to many on this site and it's simply frustrating to deal day in and day out with the suspense of it all.

I had my last period on 15th feb and havent had one since. Ive never missed a period or been late before. I have an increase in appetite, am bloated, stomach pains, craving sweet food, and tired all the time. I have done two  tests which came back negative. I went to my dr yesterday and they said to do another home test- i did and it came back negative. do you reckon there is any chance i could still be pregnant and the home tests are wrong??

Hi all,
I am in the same boat as a lot of the ladies who have posted. I am 21 years old and have been married for 3 months. Cycles have always been exactly 28 days. We had unprotected sex 27 days ago and I'm now 10 days late. All home pregnancy tests have been negative. I want to call the doctor, but I'm sure they'll probably just tell me to wait another week. Maybe I'm pregnant? I don't know. I just had being left in the dark. Any suggestions?

I am a 26 year old female.  My husband and I have been trying to conceive for two years now.  My cycles are very regular.  It usually comes every thirty days, give or take a day.  My last pedriod was May 21st and it is now June 11.  I took a home pregnancy test on June 8 and it turned out to be negative.  Some of the symptoms I am experiencing are severe nausea, vomiting, headaches, once in a while a slight pinching in my abdominal area, bloating, clear to white vaginal discharge and just recently, soreness in my nipples and frequent trips to the restroom.  I am very concerned because I have diabetes and congestive heart failure.  Ever since these symptoms have started I have become extremely short of breath due to my congestive heart failure.  How accurate are those home pregnancy tests and did I test to early?  I am going to wait to see if my period comes this month and if not, I will take a blood test.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

you need to be at least 2 weeks late on your period for a urin test to come out correctly. but my frineds urin test didnt show pregnnat until she was six months pregnant. mine showed negative for both pregnancies until two weeks after a missed period. then it showed positive. if you cant wait, you can do a blood test and find out now!

i kept getting neg results until last week i was 18 days late and finally got the positives, then the day after i started bleeding really heavily there were blood clots too so i knew i was having a miscarriage, the thing is just because your hcg hormone is not high enough it does not mean your not pregnant, like i say it took me till 18 days late to get a pos result.... so the chances are more like missed miscarriage.....
i miscarried last wednesday but i am still experiencing symptoms today x

Hello. I am now 14 days late.  I have NEVER missed a period and I have always been regular except once when I was prego years ago (that ended in miscarriage).  I have been on the pill for 5 years.  During the third week of active pills I missed 2 and doubled up.  I can not tell you how many times I have done this and it has never caused me to skip.  If anything it caused me to bleed early. Took a blood test at 7 days late. Negative.  On Monday had bloodwork for a thyroid problem.  Don't know yet.

I want to thank the ladies who post, especially those who follow up.  I have found this site to be comforting, especially since I can not stop wondering what is up with my body.  The midwife I saw was frustrating.  She acted like my head was making all this happen and I wanted to scream at her I WASN"T TRYING TO GET PREGNANT! At this point I want 1 of 3 things to happen: get my period, find out I have a hyper thyroid, or get a positive.  I'll be happy with any of those three.  Good luck and I hope you all get the answers you want.  Please keep us updated.

To: Teetee21
It sounds like you are.  Based on my research, the light pink spotting could be implementation bleeding.  Try getting a blood test. My last period is 9/22.  IF my thyroid results are normal I am taking another HPT test again.  I have been told by my sisters that HPT can take awhile.

No you are not paranoid.  Are you wanting a positive result? I hope you get the answers you want.

so here's the deal: back in december, i took the emergency contraceptive pill b/c my b/f and i are not looking to become parents any time soon. i had two more periods during that month. seriously i pretty much bled the whole month [sorry to be gruesome]. so when i didn't start my "normal" cycle at the beginning of january, i wasn't very concerned at all. well now it's almost half-way through february and i still have no sign of the period. i had cramping for one day around the time when i should've started in february. i've taken two home pregnancy tests and both have come back negative. not really experiencing other prego symptoms other than some serious heartburn in the last few days and slight nausea from time to time. i have been pretty stressed at work, and now over all this hoping i'm not pregnant yet stuff. so i don't know what to do, but i'm pretty terrified and wishing i would just have my period and be done with it! oh btw i'm 25 and usually have a very consistent cycle as well. i plan on taking another test soon, but i'm really getting worried. i realize that soon i should make a doc appt ... i don't really know what i expected from this posting, but that's my story. maybe i'm hoping that someone will tell me that it's possible that the "morning after" pill is still messing with my hormones and that my period is still likely to arrive any day now? is that a feasible option, or am i likely just fooling myself?

I was recently on the pill but for only two months. I got my period on January 25th...after i was done my period i had sex with my boyfriend. On the Sunday after i got my period I took one pill, but forgot to keep taking them cause i was pretty busy that week, so by the time I noticed it was too late to keep taking the pills. I had sex with my boyfriend around the time i was about to start my pills again, but didnt basically. I've had some brownish spotting, that didn't even last a day. I was suppose to get my period around the 16th, but it's now the 28th and i still have yet to get it. Im never late...if anything im always a day early. I have been nauseous, really really tired, peeing more, cramps for the last week but no period, alittle moody, an increase in discharge (i barely get it normally)...could I be pregnant? I test when i was 7 days late but it was Negative...Im concerned cause ive never missed one before. Also i've been told it could have been my pills, but ive been on the before more than once for around the time...and my period was not missed, it came earlyyy....im confuseddd..help pleasee:)

I'm 30 yrs old- and have been wanting another baby for years, but I've waited for various reasons. My daughter is now about to be 10, and as you can imagine, I feel like the clock has begun ticking. When I was younger they were like clockwork-every 28 days. After my daughter was born they went wacko. I also went through a weight gain. When she was 6 mos old I didn't get a period at all, and thought I was pregs again. I wasn't...then it happened again about a yr later, and never like that since then. For a long time my period starting coming every 29-32 days, and for the last year right about the 15th every single month. . Well, I know we just came out Feb, but it still was supposed to be here by 18th or so. I just started spotting today, and even though my husband and I don't plan to start trying to conceive until we move home to east coast this summer, I was still hopeful...I understand the frustration....Alexandra

Hi,

I am 29, and have very regular 28-day cycles working like a clock work. Last period was on 23/May. I have been ttc for 4 months, this month I took clomid (day 5-9). I am not sure when I ovulated, but 8 days before my expected period, I had light pink-brown spotting which lasted a day, I suspected this to be implantation bleeding. I am now 3 days late for my period. Since I have been taking prenatal vitamins for a long time, I do not have fatigue or nausea, but I do tend to take afternoon naps, and pee more often. Other than that, I am hungry very frequently and feel full immediately after eating a little.
Both hpt and blood test done today came negative.
But I have never been late for my period. Could this be a side-effect of clomid?
Please advise.

Hi, I'm 29 years old and happily married.  We are not been trying to get pregnant. However,  I have been off the pill for almost 2 years now, but we do use condoms religiously.  My period is now 22 days late.  My whole life I've been like clockwork between 28-30 days, never going over 30.  I feel very nauseous, especially in the morning.  And never really feel like eating.  I've actually lost 15 lbs.  I have also been very moody/emotional.  I took 2 HPT which were neg, and finally went and had a blood test while I was 2 weeks late. All coming up neg.  I'm now past 3 weeks late and still no signs of my period.  I always started with cramping a few days before my period started, and now nothing.  I can't get in to see my doc for another 2 weeks.  Just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem or has some advice.  I'm stumped, and want to know why I haven't gotten my period!

I'm in a similar situation.  I'm 29, also happily married.  I went off the pill four years ago... we haven't really been TRYING but we are not preventing either.  We just figured that if it was meant to be, then we would have children.  For the last few years we started thinking maybe we couldn't conceive and just kinda gave up on the idea that we might become pregnant.  Now my AF is 3 weeks late.  I am never late.  I have a 24-28 day cycle.  Oh actually I was late once, but there was a crisis happening in my family and I know it was caused by stress.  I'm not stressed now.  I took two HPT's one at 7 days late and one at 10.  Both negative.  I went to the doctor and did a blood test.  It was also negative.  I was told that it is normal to skip a period once in a while.  So now I have to wait and see if I skip my next period which would be next week.  If it doesn't come then I will get another blood test done.  This is very frustrating.  I just want to know what is going on with my body.  If I'm pregnant I'll be happy, if I'm not pregnant I"ll be happy too, but I'm worried that there is something wrong with me.  I've had my thyroid tested in the past few months, so I know it's not that.  What else can it be?

So my AF shouldve shown up by now. So now I've missed two periods. I went to the doc again today. She did a blood test again which came back negative again. I asked her what I'm supposed to do now. She told me just to wait for my period to show up and that no further testing will be done unless I miss my period for six months!  What?!?!  Is that reasonable or should I find a new doctor?

I had unprotected sex about 1-3 May 2009, then a period came on 9 May for about 5 days. I was on BC but stopped taking it before my period came on because my bf and I broke up.There was only 1 day of regular bleeding and very light the other days, mainly spotting. I have a fairly regular cycle, but then there was nothing again during June, and in July the same thing with only about 1 1/2 days of regular and then just spotting the rest of the time. I was pregnant once before and at about 6 weeks had tender swollen breasts and lots of puking. This time, nothing. Is it just stress? Or is every time different hence no puking etc. And it is possible to miss out a period for a month, have a light one again and still be pregnant?

My last period was April 22nd and we're in July and still no period! I took six pregnancies test, two urine and two blood test and all came out negative. After, the blood test came out negative and the doctor priscribed (prescribed) this birth control "Loestrin24Fe" to me and said i should see spots after taking the pills for ten days. Well, it's been 15 days and nothing, and my husband and I are worried sick to our stomachs, because I had by baby at 23 weeks and thinks that maybe something went wrong when they did procedures after i gave birth last year. For the past two months, I eat like there's no tomorrow and my breasts got larger and I feel weird. Can something be wrong with me and i dont know it? I have to go for an ultrasound in three months and I m afraid that they are going to find a tumor or worst.

well i am currently 1 week and 3 days late on my period... i am currently feeling bloated my breasts are very tender and larger with my nipples darker and the area around it has expanded and with little bump, i feel very constipated and very tired all the time, i get frequent head aches. I get a little sick here and there but not every day. I have been expirencing bad back aches but no sign of getting my period. i too have never been late on a period i have been early.  i to a ept digital but it said not pregnant, but when i pull the strip out i showed a very faint second blue line. right after that i had taken another pee in a cup and did a first response and that came back negative.... should i be worried and get blood taken?

I recently went off the pill in early June after being on it for a year and a half (since I had my son).  In the past, my periods were abnormal without being on the pill to regulate them.  While on the pill, my periods came and went on schedule.  Since going off in early June to get pregnant, it took seven weeks to get my period.  That said, it has been seven weeks and five days since the last period.  I have taken 2 tests recently and both have been negative.  The only stympton of pregnancy that I have is being tired and there are no regular period symptoms I usually encounter.  It is worth mentioning that it took some time in the past for my hormone levels to indicate that I was indeed pregnant.  I went in for an ultrasound thinking I was eight weeks pregnant and found out I was 13.  Any advice??

Thank you!

Hello everyone,
I have a prolbem. I've been trying to get pregnant for the past 6 months and ever since i've been trying my period had been coming late for 2 or 3 days. This last months I was late for 3 days and I had a huge cloth while on my period. After I finish my period for 2 weeks my breast were still sore and tender. I went to my doctor and she said I had an early miscarried. this month am late again for 5 days and getting cramps, back pain, feeling sick and all, but not vomiting. Am not sure if am pregnant since my period had been coming late for over 6 months that i've been trying to get pregnant.  please help me out!

Hello, I am writing because I was suppose to get my period October 28. It is now about 10 days late. I took 2 pregnancy t. and they both were negative. I recently came off birth control in may and my cycle has range from 28 to 34days, but I still got a period. Help could I still be pregnant? I have not experienced any pregnancy symptoms. My nerves are on edge.

I had the same a few years a go and because i got so excited I started to find things that meant I was pregnant. I was regular for years but then suddenly I missed a period. I wasnt pregnant, it was random. If you keep winding yourself up about it then it will make it happen again. Relax and leave it til next month if u miss again then try another test

Hey girls, I would love to hear from some of you who really went through this. I will sure give us a little hope. I am TTC and just like most of you, I am very regular. Now I am 3 days late, have been having a lot of nausea, expanded nipples and cramps. On the day I was supposed to get my period, I had a lot of period symptoms, which just went away after 2 days. So I practically feel as if I had already had my period and it passed. Of and yeah, 2 negative urine pregnancy tests(early morning urine)....has anyone experienced this???
thanks.
It would be nice if you girls could keep us updated about what happened, if any of you actually turned out pregnant. I will
