No period & negative tests!?

[Shutt]

Hi Everyone,

We have been ttc since September 21 and got pregnant in the summer 22 but had a early miscarriage at 5 weeks. I am very lucky with the fact my periods are always regular and come within a day or two of being due. I was due on Friday 9th but still no period and negative pregnancy tests? Has anyone had this before? Cramps come and go so sometimes I feel like I am going to come on then they go. Any advice please?

@Eagerlywaiting1990 that is so frustrating for you!! honestly it feels so cruel when u want a baby! i hope they do bloods but with xmas who knows when that will be and when the results will come in! i really need to stop testing, im driving myself crazy and keep squinting to see if there is anything… gonna damage my eyes at this rate lol!

well af has arrived….. tbh i never thought id be so relieved to get my period but i was seriously beginning to worry something was wrong!!

Hi — I’m in a similar boat and hoping to get some answers. I’m actually not TTC actively but if it happened (is it happening??) I wouldn’t turn it away. AF was due on 4-5 Feb and now it’s 9 Feb, so almost 6 days late, taken about 4 tests (a couple early ones as well because I thought I saw implantation spotting and felt it). All the tests come back negative but my cycle is ALWAYS regularly 32 days, even during times of stress, and comparatively I don’t have much stress rn. The days after I saw the spotting I experienced massive hunger pains every 2-3 hours, which I’ve only ever felt when I was pregnant before (lost it at 5 weeks). I’m not on birth control and don’t have any medical conditions that would affect my cycle so I’m super confused at what’s happening??? I keep waking up at night either dreaming I’m pregnant or needing to pee and that’s very unusual as well. Would honestly just like AF to come at this point so I can get some sleep 😭

@lilacvkngsquirrel hopefully you get some clarity soon. My AF eventually came and I think I'm gonna put it down to not ovulating that month - but I can't be sure.

@lilacvkngsquirrel it's worth testing in a week or so if AF hasn't arrived. I was 5 days late (never late!) Tested and got a negative. Bled lightly for two days from that evening. Tested two weeks later as feeling sick and was pregnant - 5/6 weeks at that point! They reckon I ovulate late so it was too early for the first test to pick up on, and the short unusual bleed was implantation.

@lilacvkngsquirrel wgat was your outcome? Did it arrive eventually? I’m in the same boat and so confused. We lost our little boy on the 19th December at 24 weeks due to an infection in the water. My cycle went straight back to its regular self January and February, this month was the month we said we would ttc, tracked ovulation, dtd for that week every day to cover all aspects, AF was due the 27th this month, I had half a day of spotting and a few days of cramping but now thing worse, I’ve done 4 tests now all negative, I still have a little mild cramping on and off but literally a twinge and that’s it. I just want it to arrive now so I can start tracking again rather than hanging here in limbo 😩

Aw @Toddy21 I hope you get some good news! The wait is pure torture

@Eagerlywaiting1990 it really is, I’ve never had a missed period unless I was pregnant so this is just so random and confusing, it’s like my body is playing horrible tricks on me grrrr. Hopefully the next couple of days I’ll get something.
