Late period but BFN :(

My period is now 4 days late and my husband and I aren't actively trying but also aren't being super careful because if it happened it would be earlier than planned but still great! I've been tracking my cycles and it turns out that we DTD right when I ovulated and were not, entirely, safe. I've been having lots of early pregnancy symptoms already; neausea, dizziness, headaches, total fatigue, bad gas, heightened sense of smell and I was having terrible cramps but they've stopped now. My boobs aren't sore though and Ive not had much cm. I had all these things last time i was pregnant but only from about week 4 (they then got worse if course and I ended up with HG!). I've taken loads of tests though and they all say negative. I've used cheap ones and also expensive digital ones. I went to the doctor on monday and she tested and it was negative. She also checked for a UTI which was also negative. She said to wait a week and test again. She prescribed me the same anti sickness meds as last time though just incase. I'm just so anxious about not knowing! I would be ok either way, I just want to know why I feel so terrible. Any ideas? Have any of you experienced this? Were you pregnant in the end? I'm taking iron tabs and pre natals and not drinking just to be safe. Thanks!

I'm 9 days late and getting negative tests. I have a 30 day cycle I'm never late ever (unless pregnant)I went to the docs yesterday i have to go back Monday to get bloods taken if AF doesn't arrive. I keep getting waves of feeling sick, i'm bloated, constipated and peeing for England. Hope we get answers Soon xx

I didn't get a positive till just over 6 weeks so there is hope, fingers crossed for you

Prembabymum · 31/01/2018 19:09

@Shannan how did you cope with the wait! It's good to hear that there is hope though!

I only get positives after i’m Over a week late and only very faint positives even then!

Shannan · 31/01/2018 19:17

I kinda gave up hope, I didn't think I was, booked myself an appointment with gp to find out what was going on and took a test the night before just to make sure and it came back positive. There certainly is hope

sounds normal. due to the stresses of everyday life periods can be delayed.
