Help! I need your advice

I've done a few pregnancy tests and all show negative but I'm 10 days late. I went to my Dr for blood work and he wasn't too much help he basically told me that there will be no point in doing a blood test and to go back in three weeks if I still haven't started my cycle, and that I'm probably stressed. (My first issue with my cycle)

My average cycle 31 days
I'm currently on day 41- negative tests
I've never been later than 36 days (stress etc...)

I've been having
1.heartburn,
2.acid reflux (burping)
3.peeing every 1-2 hours
4. Fatigue
5.motion sickness
(No sore boobs, nipples are just a little tinder)

I'm 26 and have no experience with pregnancy, please share your experience and opinions. I can't wait another three weeks as suggested by my Dr when I have absolutely no signs of starting my period.

This happened to me last month. My period was 20+ days late. I stopped counting at 26 days. I was having the same exact symptoms as you at the beginning so I was convinced I was pregnant but only negative tests. After awhile the symptoms went away and I made a doctors appt. no joke, the day after I did that my period started. My doctor did call me (after I cancelled the appt) and he said it could be stress but also sometimes we just skip a cycle with no explaination.

Side note: the reason he dismissed my request is because I had intercorse only once this past month with my partner a day after my period ended. Which means that most people won't ovulate for another 7 days in which the sperm does not survive that long.

Although my cycle averages 31-33 days and I noticed that I sometimes ovulate twice in one cycle (fact: new studies have shown that this is rare although does happen. Unfortunately it will affect me negatively as I get older)

Your expertise and advise will be very much appreciated. What were your symptoms during your first 5 weeks of pregnancy? Do you think it's possible I could be? Or is it really stress as my Dr stated?
