Should I take another test

AF didn't show up yesterday or today. I've taken 3 tests 3 days in a row all BFN. Should I do another tomorrow or wait a few days and see if AF shows up. I've had absolutely no sytoms at all but no sign of AF either.

If I had a cheapy I wouldn't be able to resist.

I only have cheapy ones from amazon. I'm so convinced it's gonna be BFN again. Maybe if AF doesn't show up tomorrow I might get a more sensitive test.

Have you been actively trying? Did you just come off contraception or anything?

Yes we're actively trying. But my husband was away for a weekend around what I thought was my peak days. DTD 2x before and 1x after.

I'd say keep testing especially since you have the cheap ones and see if AF arrives or not. Fingers crossed for you!x

It's still not here!! I thought it was but was just the lightest spot ever not even sure if it was spotting and now absolutely nothing. Negative test still and took an early response this morning. What's going on! 4 days late. Has anyone else been pregnant and not shown on any tests.

man alive I remember how much my body played tricks on me during my TTC years. I had never been late on my periods until then. Body and mind okay a lot of tricks on you, when you’re anticipating something.

I'm starting to believe I might actually be pregnant. I really hope AF doesn't arrive now. 🥲

It does look like there's something there compared to the other two but it's very hard to tell. Test again first thing in the morning before you drink anything. Good luck!

shieldmaiden7 · 22/02/2024 21:30

Did you test again. I think I can see something on the 2nd and 3rd test

Which supplements are you taking? Just asking as I read on another thread Pregnacare has made some women have longer cycles.

I was taking evening primrose oil but stopped that now as I think it may have been the coarse. I take folic acid, vit D and iron. Been taking vit D and iron since before ttc as I'm slightly deficient. X

You shouldn't take primrose oil during ovulation. Good you dropped that. Have you thought about Ubiquinol? I took that 1.5 months before finally conceiving after 2.5 years of trying.

Your probably getting sick of me now 🤣. My period lasted 1 day. Wasn't majorly heavy. I did take 1 tranexamic acid tablet yesterday as my periods are absolutely horrendous usually but wouldn't have thought 1 tablet would stop it completely. X

Was it how your periods normally are? Have you taken another test?
