My pregnancy test didn't show positive til i was 9 days late then it was very faint,it just depends if you have a reliable 28 day cycle. i know you must be very anxious but please try to relax as this will not help your period to show if you are not pregnant
Some people get a false negative, go see your doctor.
It is possible to be pregnant and the test not showing it up with my 1st pregnancy it took till i was 4 n half months gone befor i got a positive but i was having a m/c so ask for a blood test this will pick it up good luck
that is ok and it is frequently occuring
I don't really know alot about this but i would advise you to go and see your gpo for a test and advice but I read somewhere that if u constantly worry about a late period it actually delays it so this may be the case. However I would go and see your doctor just to be on the safe side and don't worry too much :)
go and see a doctor just in case it could be something else as well so just check.
I didn't get a positive answer until two weeks after my period was due. late periods can also be caused by anxiety so if you are too worried about it, you may just be late.
Go see your doctor and ask for a blood test.
You can get false negatives and not know you are pregnant..
Hi
I am having exactly the same problem, i am actually 8 days late too and my pregnancy test said negative last night. It is driving me mad as i have never had a late period. I have spoken to my gp and they have said leave it another week to do another test as the hormones may not being showing up if not i will need to go for a blood test where this will show for sure. Maybe you try again in a few days. good luck
Definately go to the doctor - he will have the test more accurate and then he can put you through to have an early scan to see if you do infact have an eptopic pregnancy. You're right, better finding out earlier rather than later.
Good luck!
The best thing that you can do at this point is to make an appointment with your OBGYN and have a blood serum test done, they will know what to do from there. Especially if you have had an etopic pregnancy you should see a doctor. You may just be having a late period or sometimes other factors in your life may make your period late. Stress, diet, sleeping habits may cause this. It is really hard to say because early pregnancy symptoms are similiar to pre-menstral symptoms so you may still get your period you are only five days late. Me personally have been a month over due before. Good luck to you!
You could very well be pregnant, and it is just taking a while to show up, or you could be stressin so much and looking for anything that could be the slightest symptom of pregnancy, that it could be delaying your period. stress levels have a lot to do with their timing! As hard as I know it will be, try to relax and get your mind off it for a few days, if still no period, go see a doc! Good luck!
hi i was 11 days l8 before i done my test, and it come back poss straight away so i would wait a bit longer but dnt bother going to docs as they say home test are just as acurate as their one
good luck .
I've said this on here before and I feel like a right party pooper. So, sorry. before I even start. If the test says you're not preggers then you probably aren't. They're very accurate. If you are really wanting to be pregnant your body can work in mysterious ways and even interupt your cycle so that you don't have to accept that you're not pregnant for a few extra days. You can also get other symptoms like nausea and swollen boobs. I hope I'm wrong if you want to be pregnant. Good luck
I was in your shoes, 2 months ago. My period was late for almost a fortnight and i was in such a dilemma. I tried various pregnacy kits and then couldn't take the waiting anymore, so went my gp.
Basically it was put down to STRESS. even her test was negative!
I followed her advice by breathing exercises and swimming.
My period followed within a few days,
Please follow my advise and see your gp ASAP.
Good luck!
Techanlly it takes up to 2 weeks for most docter to be 100% bsure you are pergnant. But if you wait for 28 after last period and more you probley are preg.
Even though pregnancy tests claim to be 99% accurate they are far more likely to give a 'false negative' than a 'false positive' result. I had 6 negative results - including one at the chemists - and I was pregnant all along! Maybe your hormone level is not strong enough - do a test first thing in the morning before you have a drink..
Worrying about it will just make your period later. My wife keeps hoping she pregnant every month. She feels nausea etc but is usually just a false alarm. I would leave it 2 weeks before testing to make sure that pregnancy hormones have built up. They could be so weak after only 5 days they don't register on the test.
i think you are pregnant, but you should see a doctor to make sure. I had problem just like yours just wait a couple more days and take another one.
