5 days late, negative tests

Anyone had this and turned out to be pregnant? I'm so confused.
I feel just like I did before I got my bfp with my son a few years ago, if not worse tbh.
I don't get af symptoms at all really except cramps for the day before I come on.
I got a clear blue positive at one day late but now thinking it was an evap.
I've just done an Asda pink test and it's completely negative.
I'm literally baffled.

Am I out or is this rare but happens? Help 😧

Hi,

I am 33 and we are TTC our second child. So in Sep we planned everything well and were really hoping for the best.
I missed my period which is always regular 28 days cycle, never missed before only once when I conceived my daughter.
I very excitedly tested and got a negative result, tested 2-3 times more but all came back negative. I did have cramping when the period was due.
Its been 5 days since i missed my period and i had a very little brownish discharge last night and nothing after that. No sign of period yet. I went to the GP and she asked me to come back after 2 months if I still havent had my periods.
This is very frustrating for me. I have never had such delay in the past , always regular as I maintain a diary.
Also, because we are ttc its disheartening to know that I am not pregnant, but also that iv no periods:( so whats the issue.
Please share your experiences.
Thank you all very much in advance

hey girls how you all doing? I missed my ovulation date the other day :( my partner was away for work so gutted I have to wait another month to try again:( such hard work getting pregnant 😣😣

Thanks things are a bit better today. We're both under a huge amount of stress and it isn't likely to end until end of November so it's a case of hanging on in there

EyeDrops · 30/09/2017 15:28

9 days overdue now and still negative, including digital tests! It's just so frustrating when you want to be pregnant! I'll ring the doc on Monday just in case, not sure what it'll achieve though 😕

MeriReu · 30/09/2017 09:00

dolwar feel free to rant about home life should you need to!
I was 3 weeks late to the day! It is possible it's just SO annoying. I'd say test once a week until you get a positive or AF shows upFlowers

lemon same with my gp! They're all the same tbf!xx

I'm currently 6 days late. Reassuring to hear that AF does arrive late sometimes as things at home aren't great so would like to sort it before a bfp

MeriReu · 29/09/2017 21:03

abby25 · 29/09/2017 13:57

Except it’s first response early results. But you know what I mean...

NimbleKnitter · 27/09/2017 21:26

FRER - first response early response (ie the mega expensive ones)

FMU - first morning urine

EyeDrops · 27/09/2017 21:02

Ok so... I have no idea what FRER and FMU stand for?? I've only taken the clear blue tests but want to try a different sort before I give up. It took me a really long time to realise HPT meant home pregnancy test!! Blush

ScarletSienna · 27/09/2017 17:36

@lemoneyes I had never thought about when I ovulate either but like you decided to because of irregular cycles. I then realised I had a fairly short luteal phase. Irregular cycles are not fun!

Mickymoo9191 · 27/09/2017 11:14

Thanks for your advice, I have tried Sainsberrys own and Clear blue And still all negative so I think I'll just wait and see. Seams pointless spending more money when it could just be a missed period. Just seems very strange as I've never missed one before but after reading a lot of peoples experiences it seams to be a normal thing. Thanks again.

Hi , I've been reading up a lot on everyone's experiences lately. I'm currently 10 days late and was die my period on they 17th. I have taken 6 test all different brands and all has cone up negative. I'm always on time and never this late. I have been off the pill since March 2017 and always had my period on he same date . Could this mean I'm pregnant even tho all the test say no. ? Thanks

MeriReu · 27/09/2017 10:08

I was bang on 3 weeks late so 21 days. No idea if / when I ovulated.

This was a 49 day cycle! To begin with I was completely convinced I was pregnant and the tests were lying.
Now I've bled for one day spotted for a day and then it stopped.

Wondering how long this cycle will be!

AliceScarlett · 26/09/2017 22:07

21 days late and just started spotting. Reckon I'm probably 4 days early! Hoping AF will come tomorrow and I can just carry on as normal.

Just saw this thread and thought I’d share that I had a 45 day cycle out of nowhere a few months ago. I didn’t ovulate until day 36!

MummysMaison · 26/09/2017 16:19

I'm now 10 days late. BFN's every morning. I've also been doing an OV test at the same time to see if i'm ovulating and just missed a month for some bizarre reason. Negative on there too!

EyeDrops · 26/09/2017 07:54

I'm 5 days over now and another BFN this morning! Feeling sick, crampy, nasty taste in my mouth... or maybe I'm just ill?! So frustrating Sad

MeriReu · 26/09/2017 00:35

Oh lemon sorry it was a bit pointless!

My bleedings stopped. How very annoying 😂 Xxx
