2 negstive tests few days after missed period too early to have tested?

[Coffeebrew]

All a bit odd and wondering if any advice?

In short we are trying to conceive and exactly a week before my period was due i had a very light, dark to light pink, on & off bleed that stopped dead on day 3, but i passed 1 clot. Week later period due, absolutely no symptoms, no (sorry for TMI) heavy bright red bleeding with lots of clots, which would be normal for me.

I did a test 3 & 5 days past when period due, both negative, yet still no 'normal' for me bleeding at all.
Was it maybe too early for me to have tested, or possible i had a very unusual for me light & out of sync period?

Has anyone else had a similar experience?
I don't know when i should test again if i should, or if i should try to wait it out to see if any bleeding happens between now and next month.

Thanks in advance for any advice

Hopefully they get back to you, I've had a thin line before and it was negative in the end

@Coffeebrew Girl I am feeling your stress!
They do say you should disregard anything outside of the 10 minute window, but I am really rooting for your BFP! How about testing with a FRER? As they are known to be reliable, they're pricey though. I bought one yesterday from Superdrug and it was only a fiver, definitely a flook but I kept my mouth shut 😂

I'm 8 days late and I'm really anxious about it so I have a Docs appointment on Wednesday so hopefully I'll get some answers, have you called your GP?

@Tashabrown thanks for your reply. No not contacted GP yet. Waiting to see how todays spotting progresses, it's so on and off i just have no idea if it will turn into a period or as it seems to have done for now, eased off. But, i might just bite the bullet and see a dr tomorrow as we have a morning sit and wait service at our surgery.
You are right FRER are expensive and that puts me off if it turns out negative. Don't want to spend a tenner or so a time.
I too wish you good luck

Just thought i would follow up and say thanks everyone for all your comments, it obviously wasn't meant to be for us last month, probably a very early chemical pregnancy, one i probably wouldn't have thought twice about if it wasn't for us actively trying. Onwards and upwards, we will try again.

Hi need some advice done a few of these over last 2 days and a cb digital cb came back not pregnant and then this again today put others in bin as didn't want kids to see lol...ps how do I add photo...
