Need some advice please

I'm now 10 days late (I'm never late) first thought it was maybe down to stress but I have been stressed for a long time and it's never affected my cycle, have been ttc since last summer but no joy, last month we stopped "trying" as we've booked a holiday to ibiza this summer and just went with the flow so I don't even know when I ovulated, symptoms are feeling tired, slightly nauseous, thick white discharge every day and as of today, heavy tugging sensation lower abdomen, took another test this morning but bfn, don't know what to think about this, will feel silly if it turns out I'm not pg, I must have took about 20 tests all with bfn, the tests are those little dip sticks you get off the Internet (10miu) is it still possible to be pg?

Go and buy a first response, I didn't get positives with my Internet cheapies but an immediate one with first response. Sometimes Mother Nature throws in long cycles to confuse us and when you look for symptoms you see them.

I didn't get a bfp until I was 8 days late when I was pg with DS. I kept testing and kept getting bfns even at a week late! Then finally a very faint line at 8 days late! Buy a first response test or a clear blue digital if you can afford them as they are a bit more reliable (generally)

My body was very very cruel last year and chucked in a 54 day cycle just for fun. Every test came back negative and I would have laid down my salary on me being pregnant still. I went to the doctors, had tests... nada.

My period turned up on day 54 and it was very mild affair.

Turns out some women can either miss a cycle for no reason or it can turn up massively late, just cos it feels like it... e

Not saying that it's the same for you and I know from all of my hours and hours of Googling, there are women out there who don't produce a positive test until weeks on but those are very very rare cases and now sitting here at almost 10 weeks pregnant I can say, whole heartedly, I have literally no preggo symptoms - had it not been for the test and my early scan I would have thought it was made up!

So my point is this; it was very easy for my mind to play tricks on me when I wanted something so bad but not so easy for a pregnancy test to. When I was preggo, I felt nothing at all.... but then I wasn't convincing myself I was if you see what I mean.

Good luck!

I would buy a decent pregnancy test, take it first thing in the morning and if still negative go and see your Dr. Not wanting to worry you at all, but was a lady on here a while ago and she had symptoms, missed period for weeks and kept getting negative results and ended up having an ectopic Sad sure you have nothing to worry about and Prob is just your body playing tricks.
