8 days late, 3 negative tests - what's going on?

Hi,
I'm now on day 39 (usually a fairly regular 29 days) and have gotten three negative results. On Sunday, I started getting PMS symptoms - slight cramping, bit of nausea, slightly tender breasts. But no AF. This morning, I had a teeny amount of spotting but nothing since. Last month, I also had a very late period - 39 days, which the doctor attributed to stress (planning a wedding, getting a new job, moving to Scotland and a death in the family) and I'm still quite stressed but I never have periods like this so I'm freaking out! Has this happened to any of you ladies? Any advice welcome!

That's weird, supermummy25, they gave me about 4 different blood tests including thyroid tests straight away. I don't have any children; we're getting married in August though so I would be delighted to be pregnant ASAP! My fiance wants to wait a little bit though, so have to persuade him first. I think I can talk him into not really trying but not trying to avoid during the honeymoon, so fingers crossed!

Sylvie, I hope it comes soon - that must be really stressful! The first time it happened, the doctor assured me that it was clearly stress, so if you're all having a stressful time hopefully it's something like that.

Hi! I had this a few years ago. My cycles were always like clockwork (for 10 years) and then suddenly changed ... Varying from 28 days to upto 80 days sometimes! They were like this for 3 years. all tests came back normal and the gp said he would only look into it 12 Mths after ttc with no luck.

Fortunately I caught with my daughter after 12 mths ... Prob 8/9 cycles. Since having her periods returned to normal ... So very strange. Very common though as I have a few friends and family members whose cycles have done the same .... Mostly when ttc though frustratingly!

hi how is every doing? a wee update from me. my period next period was due today and it arrived right on schedule. just so strange how I skipped 1 last month? starting the pill so that shld regulate it a bit more

It turns out the first doctor did the wrong test and the other doctor thinks it is PCOS. I'm absolutely devastated, I'm so worried we won't be able to have children.
