Grasping at straws?

Ok so my cycle has always been 28 days long. After my first two natural miscarriages, I immediately went back to my normal cycle.  With my last miscarriage, however, I had a D&C, and now I am on my 29th day without a period. According to my history, my period is one day late. With all three pregnancies I got positive HPT at 12 days PO and with this one, at 14 days PO, the tests have come back negative. (I haven't taken a test today at 15 days PO yet.)

That said, I know D&Cs can mess with your cycle, but has anyone had a D&C that also changed when an HPT test usually comes back positive? I know I am grasping at pregnancy straws, and I know each pregnancy(including my own) can be different, but I was wondering if anyone has ever gotten a positive result after the time they usually get one.

Just to close this out for any future mamas who have wondered the same thing, I did end up getting my period two days late, but I read about a woman who for her first two pregnancies didn't get a positive result for 2 weeks, but then for her third got one at 12 dpo!

Man! I got my period the month after my D&C, but it was earlier than expected, but there is a good chance I didn't ovulate when I thought. Normally I would totally feel like I was pregnant but without the HPT to back it up, I don't think so. I know   women can get a negative and then only a positive when they test one week later, but I am going by my past history.  That said,  today as you know, I am hoping that it isn't my PMS symptoms that are different, but my HPT hormone that is a bit less. (As I write this the menstrual like cramps are acting up and my breasts are sore. I keep checking for AF.) I'll keep you posted. (It's so nice to act as desperate as I want on Medhelp!
