Hi all! Hope you’re well Smile

I’m currently just over 2 weeks late. No sign of af starting at all, had plenty of pregnancy symptoms! Nausea, dizziness, fatigue, cramping (mostly lower but sometimes in left side), metallic taste, headaches, strange stretching feeling in stomach and belly button, bloated and gassy, hot flushes, insomnia, random flare up of acne...

I’ve taken a few pregnancy tests, both pink dye and blue, as well as a digital one. There’s a faint line on both the blue and pink ones (as shown) but the digital came back negative. My mum has said she didn’t get a positive until 7-8 weeks and some people don’t get them until later?

My cycle is normally between 32 - 34 days and af lasts 5 days, so calculating I’d roughly be 6 weeks. I track af using the Flo app but that only says I’m 8 days late for some reason, although I was due af on the 7th May. I’m worried as I have Hypothyroidism and need to know so my thyroid levels can be monitored. I’m 27 and have no other medical conditions.

I can’t get a docs appointment for two weeks and I honestly can’t wait that long Sad I’m thinking of going to a walk in centre but not sure they’d help? I’m wondering what’s the latest you got a positive result? Have you had a false negative with a CB Digital? Any recommendations on what I should do? Sorry for the long post!

Are you definite about your ovulation date? Some of your symptoms could be down to ovulation. Those tests look like evaps to me, I don't see colour on either of them unfortunately. I'm not sure the doctor will do much at this stage but if you're worried then better to get checked out.

It could also be you are pregnant but too early, especially if you ovulated later than usual.

I’m unsure about the ovulation date, but I’m normally pretty regular, I’ve only ever been late once a few years ago and have been tracking dates and whatnot with an app for 2 years. 3 evaps (I took two pink ones) would be such an unlucky coincidence, but that’s so typically me, I seem to attract bad luck lol Sad

I’d wait another week or two but I’m worried it might be something else. There’s got to be a reason I’m this late surely? Confused I guess I’ll soon find out!

If it helps put your mind at ease about other things I was late by 22 days this month. Obviously wasn’t pregnant so have assume it was down to a stressful period of time around or close to my ovulation time.

Thank you for the replies, hoping the reason for being this late is nothing serious. I’m booked in for an appointment on Friday so I’ll ask for a blood test while I’m there. If it turns out to be 3 dreaded evaps then I guess I’ll just keep trying, I’m sure I’ll get my positive one day... Smile

It’s because the digital one isn’t sensitive.. happened to me with my dd 😊 I didn’t get a pregnant on digital for ages!!! Good Luck! Xx

That gives me a little bit of hope, thank you! Grin not going to get my hopes up but would be over the moon!

Update - from what I explained to the doctor, he reckons I AM pregnant Shock I mean, I don’t wanna get my hopes up. He said a blood test wouldn’t be beneficial at this point, told me to take one test per week for the next few weeks and if my next AF doesn’t start as expected then I should go straight back. So, still no answers! Took another pink dye test this morning, yet another faint line. I just wanna know so I can either move on or keep trying Sad
