TTC2 Need some reassurance

Hubby and I are TTC no. 2. My periods have always been very erratic and so timing is tricky. However, it's always been around the 31 day cycle mark. I'm now on day 33 and still no period and no signs. However, 3 pregnancy tests have come back negative. Normally I wouldn't bat an eyelid, as I've gone as much as a 40 day cycle before now. BUT since last Monday I've been getting up during the night for a wee and since the weekend I've been weeing all day as well. I'm going out of my mind, and I know it's such a tiny thing and if I'm not pregnant, we try again next month, but I'm thinking why am I weeing so much? When should I do another test? Is it reasonable to do one every day, or is that just stupid? I think many women out there will read this and think I'm crazy and making a huge fuss about something very trivial, which I think I probably am, but it's now starting to keep me awake at night and taking over my days thinking about it. HELP!!!!! Is it possible to have a negative test 2 days after the period was due and still be pregnant?

Hi, what test are you using.

What was your exsperience with your first pregnancy?

I know tons of perople that didnt get there BFP till a few days after the af was due.

Myself i would prob test everyday but i am a poas addict!! I have 5 days till my af is due and i am poas everydat

Maybe ask gp for a blood test i think they only take 48 hours in the mean time get a early test maybe?

You can get a false negative in pregnancy tests (i.e. it fails to detect the HCG that's there) but not a false positive (i.e. it can't detect what isn't there), so yes, you could well be pregnant.

I hope you are!

thanks for those. Because I'm so stressy and a bit neurotic, I've tried both Clear Blue and First reponse, because I didn't want to believe the first 2 tests! My 1st pregnancy was textbook stuff-lots of overnight toilet trips led me to take a test which was positive straight away. I just hate this waiting and not knowing.I worry all the time that if I'm not pregnant, my cycle has gone completely off course and I'll never get pregnant ever again.......I need to try and relax!

That is so normal honestly, and i wouldn't say try and relax as its impossible, im ttc no 3 at the mo, and from a woman who usually falls pregnant first time, im on month 2 and going nuts!!!

Myself i always found my evening wee stronger, i always go by the rule of pee in a cup and if it looks weak throw it away if its dark then test

Good luck keep us posted
