Just that really, I did a test when I was five days late, eight days late and this morning now I’m two weeks late but all negative. I was hopeful at first as I didn't get a positive test with my son and had the pregnancy confirmed via early scan after some bleeding but surely at two weeks late it would show as a positive?
I’m getting really sick of avoiding all my favourite things just in case when realistically I’m not pregnant.

Best would be to do a blood test. Are your cycles very regular?

Hi, I’ve asked my GP for a blood test but was told to phone again when/if I’m three weeks late. Period can be a couple of days late but never two weeks.

first response are sooo sensitive (can pick up hcg as low as 6) that if you haven't got a BFP by 18 DPO than it's definitely a negative

That being said I had a chemical pregnancy last year - I got a very very very faint line 9dpo and then negatives after that - my period was then 10 days late x

Thanks for replying. Its good to have someone else confirm that the tests are that sensitive.

I did a test with a fr and can see a very light pink line but hard to see on a pic. Am i going mad?

@Oakley16 I see a line on the 10dpo.

GrumpyHoonMain · 12/11/2019 07:36

I agree that if a FR can’t pick it up by now then you probably aren’t pregnant.

That’s a positive

Oakley16 · 12/11/2019 10:30

I thought i was going mad and imagining it. Fingers crossed it gets darker

Concestor · 12/11/2019 10:52

I see lines on both of those.

Oakley16 · 12/11/2019 12:51

Ive just been to the toilet and there was some brown discharge, im not due on for another 8 days, should i worry?

TheMustressMhor · 12/11/2019 12:54

@Oakley16

That could be implantation bleeding and is perfectly normal. It can go on for up to 48 hours.

Do another test in two days to check that your line is getting darker.

Good luck.

@Specksofwhiteallaround

It seems likely that you may be having a chemical pregnancy. If so you will start to bleeding round about now.

But your cycle could be delayed for some reason and you might be in very early pregnancy. I think only a blood test will show this.

Sorry. It's a bit of a waiting game now for you. I hope you get an answer soon.
