Two weeks late negative HPT

[daniela_zim]

My husband and I have been trying for a baby, and I am now 2 weeks late and have been taking HPT at 3day intervals all of them coming back negative. I am normally fairly regular. I have been having a weird cramping sensation, which makes me think I'm about to have my period, but still nothing. I work full time, so difficult to get the time off for doc appointment, plus I dont want to waste the docs time if I am just late but not preg. Very confusing. Has anyone had similar situation? What was the conclusion? Preg or not preg?

[thefebygirl]

well, I would suggest you to have a blood test. so, that way you would know if you r pre/not. we are also ttc, so sumtimes i get my period 1-3 days b4 or after. i think its like sum hormornal change, or from stress. anyway, take a blood test, n' let us know... Good Luck !!!

[daniela_zim]

Thanks for that, that's probably the best thing to do, will book an appointment tomorrow. Will let you know what happens.

Have you felt anything other than the cramping sensation?Do you remember spotting at all around the time before your period was due? are your breasts sensitive,peeing alot,sense of smell stronger than usual??

[daniela_zim]

Hi, thanks for responding, there has been the lower abdominal pain, and my sense of smell has been quite sensitive. I have been feeling very tired, although wasn't sure if that is just my hectic schedule. I am 14 days late, but like I say, I have been taking HPT at 3day intervals, all coming back negative.

if u'v missed ur period already and the test came up neg then it mot likely negative..but sometimes ur hcg levels need some time to kick in..I only get a BFP once i miss my period never got a faint positive before missing my period..

So good luck and SSBD!

[daniela_zim]

Hi, thanks, yes already missed my period, and stil getting neg HPTs. Late by two weeks.

[haz1104]

then I'd wait for a couple of days more and c if AF shows up..if not then contact ur doctor for some tests

Good luck and Baby Dust!

[daniela_zim]

Thanks very much. Fingers crossed. Will book a doc appointment this week.

[thefebygirl]

well, sometimes i had spotting for few hrs then my Af comes. it happned 1-2 months, after that was reg period. one month only i felt i urinate alot, but after that came as normal. I never felt any smelling sen.. i think its all coz of ur hormonal change, so i dodnt pay much attention to these.

[daniela_zim]

Well...I've booked a doc appointment for first thing tomorrow morning. Feeling nervous and excited. Fingers crossed. Still no sign of AF and on 14DPO now. Lots of weird cramping below my belly button last night.

[haz1104]

try taking a test today if ur 14dpo..u might get ur BFP!

ssbd!

[daniela_zim]

Thanks! Going on a date with DH tonight, to try take mind off results. Will hopefull have some answers tomorrow after doc appointment. Will definately let you know the outcome. SSBD to you too. :-)

[daniela_zim]

Ok, so went to the doc this morning, she said I needed to book an appointment for blood work. Took another HPT at the doc, still neg, still no sign of AF. So I have another appointment tomorrow with the nurse to take blood. I'm over two weeks late for AF now. Wish I had sone answers. I just want a conclusion to this thing, either a BFP or for AF to arrive, but neither is really driving me nuts...

Will let you know what happens...

[daniela_zim]

Just had blood taken, will have the results tomorrow. Sitting on two and a half weeks late now. On Monday it will be three weeks. What is going on??? Hopefully have some answers tomorrow. Will keep you posted.

[haz1104]

3 weeks with no AF and u stil havent had an U/S! u need to ask ur doctor for one soon! Glad u had ur blood drawn hope u get the results u need...Good luck and pls keep me posted! :)

[daniela_zim]

I called up the doc this morning, they said they didn't have my results back from the lab, that I should call back tomorrow...so have to wait for another day. Hopefully get the results tomorrow, the wait is killing me....

Still no sign of AF and the doc didn't offer U/S. Maybe after I have got my blood results back they will do an U/S...

Will let you know what happens...fingers crossed.

[haz1104]

Ya the wait is the worst! have u been temping? ..u no u can get a brief view on whats going on thru monitoring ur BBT..have u noticed any symptoms?

I'm so excited for u..hope u get ur BFP soon! :)

Good luck!

[daniela_zim]

Thanks for the support! How are you getting on?

Called the doc this morning, they said the results are still not in. Its becoming a bit of a joke, this long wait...how hard can it be to analyse some blood for a pregnancy hormone???

Ive been monitoring my BBT and it has been staying at a constant 36.4 °C

Not too sure if that is higher than normal or just normal, as only been monitoring it these last two weeks...

The only symptoms I have been having is the minor cramping in my lower abdomen (which I keep thinking is my AF coming) and a heightened sense of smell.

Otherwise pretty normal.

So now have to wait till Monday for my results as the doc rooms close over the weekend. Maybe AF will come over the weekend. If not, by Monday I will be 3 weeks late. Hopefully something happens soon, really just want the waiting game to be over....

Thanks again for the support, my DH is so tired of me waffling on about it. :-)

On March 14 you wrote that you were 14dpo which is not a late period unless you have really short cycles.  I don't know how you are saying you are three weeks late but only 17 dpo?  You are late after you luteal phase and most people are at least 12 dpo.  So I would say you are a few days late, not weeks.  Am I missing something?  

Risa

[daniela_zim]

Hi Risa,

Thanks for the comment, you are absolutely right. I am on CD44, and I wasn't to sure about my DPO so used my cycles app. I notice when I did it now it still says 14 DPO. So clearly very wrong!

On Monday I will be 3 weeks late, normally have a 25day cycle. Last AF was 1st of Feb.

[Risa615]

Hi Daniela,
So when do you think you ovulated?  Around Feb. 14? Ovulate date is the best way to determine how late you really are.  If your normal cycles are 25 days, then I would guess you ovulate around cd 12?

Risa

[daniela_zim]

Hi Risa

From my calculations, I ovulated on (or around) the 14th of Feb. So I guess that puts me at DPO 33....Is that right?

Still no sign of AF... The blood results will be in on Monday. Frustratingly they weren't in yet when I called the doc earlier.

Daniela

[Risa615]

Hi Daniela,
Now that makes sense, 33 DPO is correct.  What kind of hpt are you taking that is it not showing up?  I would take your morning temp tomorrow and if it is well over 98, then you are one step closer to confirming pregnancy.  

Sending you sticky baby dust!

Hi Risa,

Thanks for that, my BBT has been sitting at a steady 36.4 °C and was 36.5 °C (97.7 °F). So I guess I need to wait one more degree...

Thanks for the advise. SSBD
