I was due on on Saturday, and still nothing today. I took a (digital) test last night and again this morning and it said 'not pregnant'. The app I use for tracking my periods (flo) says I'm only 3 days late despite being due on on Saturday, I think it takes into account cycle length variables etc. We aren't trying but did have sex around ovulation.

Should I test again, have I tested too early? Is it the digital tests? I mean I could simply just be very late as I have no symptoms but I'm just very confused!

I'd try a first response test, the digital tests are notoriously unreliable until a good few weeks after conception!

I did wonder that too! I left the shop yesterday (after queuing to get in! 😂) and immediately thought shit... think I should have got the normal ones. Il give it a few days in case I am just super late then get a first response one. Is that the brand? Or just any with the pink lines?

First response are good but any pink dyes are good. I used eBay cheapies! You could have a look on amazon/eBay, they may have some that could be delivered in a few days. Good luck!

I've found the cheapie strips on amazon to be really good. Always get a positive about 3 days before period is due (across 6 pregnancies). Would definitely recommend them over clear blue in early days.

Thank you! Il look on amazon if I don't get to Tesco again.. and if I don't come on
