Late period, negative tests

Just looking for a more recent source of information. The threads I’ve found are10+ years old. I’ve always had a 27 day cycle... exactly 27 days, always. My period is 4 days late but I’ve taken 5 tests and they were all negative. Has anyone had experience like this? Did they find they were pregnant or was there some other reason for a late / missed period.

Dotty356, I’m exactly the same! 1 late period before and I was pregnant with a positive test the day I was due. I feel silly taking tests everyday. It says over 99% accurate so doubting it seems ridiculous... but I’m just so confused!

PhaedrasChocolate, that’s why I think I can’t be pregnant. I was in hospital at 5 weeks, on a drip because the sickness was so bad. I just can’t imagine I’d be feeling so well!

I usually get pretty strong pms symptoms, but all I have had is tender boobs which started the day after af was due! So confused! I have tested on frers, Ones from Wilkinson’s and Morrisons! Not tried a clear blue yet. I really can’t justify buying any more tests lol!
Will be interested to hear what the docs say!
It’s just odd, I have only been late once that was with my first and I tested positive on the first day of missed af. Confused!

I had 4 false negatives when I was pg with my dd, and quite normal periods, although they were very much lighter then.

I only found out I was pregnant at 18 weeks, when I went for a scan convinced I had a cyst.

She's 21 today, by the way Grin

I have no symptoms. I’ve had vague period pains but nothing else. You? With my first I had so many symptoms from day 1 so I’m not really expecting anything.

Waitingforbaby2, I haven’t been on birth control since I had my little girl 3 years ago. I’d be really interested to know what the doctor suggests if you don’t mind sharing?

Haha, Santaispolishinghissleigh! I’ve been doing the same. I’m so confused!

Googling* lol

Hi,

I’m in a similar situation but I am 6 days late with so many negative tests! I am usually very regular around 28 days! I have been fooling constantly but can’t seem to find anything recent! So glad you started this post! Have you got any symptoms?

waitingforbaby2 · 08/11/2018 15:38

I'm currently 11 days late and getting BFN but only had implant out mid September so It could be that have u recently come off birth control? I've got doctors tomorrow so will hopefully start getting some answers soon

We were camping and I dragged dc miles to find a chemist and bought about ten and tested every day!!

Sarah2040 · 08/11/2018 15:14

Thanks for replying. Did you take repeated tests? I got the bfp on the day I was due on with my dd and started being sick the next day so this is a bit strange.

I was a fortnight late before I got a bfp with dd. She was a week late.
