8 days late, BFN, no sign of AF

[Jessica1072]

Hi there,

Wondering if anyone is in the same boat as me, not sure what to do?
6 days before my period I went to have a small glass of wine but had a sip and thought I was going to be sick (not normal at all for me!) Then 5 days before my period I had a small drop of brown blood, just when I wiped didn't need a pad or tampon (sorry tmi!) And felt nauseous all that week and just felt odd in general. I said to my partner that I had a funny feeling I might be pregnant. He told me to wait and see if AF came.
So I did and AF never came, which is really unusual for me, I'm super regular (29 days) and I always have really bad menstrual cramps (usually lots of painkillers and hot water bottle!) But I've not had any of that. I'm now on CD39 and no sign of it coming. I've taken a couple of HPT which have all been negative. I'm pretty sure I ovulated this month but can't be 100% sure.
I've been really tired though and boobs have been really sore and have been having very mild cramping nothing like I get before a period though. Also very gassy and constipated (sorry!)
Has anyone tested positive this late before?
Or could this be something more serious or just a hormonal imbalance? My mind has been going crazy for 3 weeks now

Oh guys I'm in the same boat. Now 3 days late on a reliable 26 day cycle. BFN yesterday and today with FMU. I've had intermittent cramping and haven't felt all round great. By last DC was 15 years ago and I'm trying to remember what I felt like back then.

I just want some certainty!!

Got my blood tests back, and they're negative. They said it could be a chemical or it could be an anovulatory cycle

@courtrai - Any update? Hope you are doing okay!

@KatyKey - Oh sorry to hear that, do you know if you have had a cycle without ovulation before? Did AF ever arrive?

I think with tests the digital ones are the way to go or I will drive myself mad about whether there is a line or not! lol.

Just wanted to update, my period finally arrived today. I think it was my cycles still trying to regulate after my MC in March. I have crohn's disease, and my docs told me that could have been responsible for the false faint positives.

Honestly I'm a bit relieved I'm not pregnant as I started my Masters degree in September and dont really want to give birth at least until I've finished. If I was pg this time, my EDD would have been June which would be far to close to my final deadlines! Going to let my cycles get back to normal, both of us are going to get our mental health sorted and get back to trying in the new year so my EDD is defo after I graduate 🙂

Hi, I’m a bit late commenting on this but I thought I’d share my experience I was 14 days late before my last period, I did a test at 5 and 10 days late which were negative and I eventually came on but a lot lighter than I usually am. I had a telephone appointment with a nurse and she basically told me it was nothing to worry about. Fast forward a month and my current period was 17 days late but I was reluctant to do a test due to the previous month and just having a late period I assumed it was a hormone issue. I was getting breast pain and feeling constantly hungry so I decided to take a test after work last week and turns out I’m pregnant! I’m not sure why the period before was late but here we are i had an appointment with doctor and he thinks I’m approximately 9 weeks x
