Late period.... negative pregnancy test... is it possible I can STILL be preggo?

Question

I have been trying to conceive for months now. I am 34 years old and my periods have been pretty regular for YEARS. However, for the last several months I have gone from a 28 cycle to a 30-32 day cycle.

Me and my husband have been trying to have a baby for several months now and I JUST KNEW we had done it THIS TIME!

Well, I am now about 7 days late and took a pregnancy test and it came back a great big "NOT PREGNANT" result. :(

For the past week, I have been feeling very tired and a tad bit queazy after I eat. My breast are a tad bit sore and I have some MILD cramping from time to time as if I am fixing to start my period.

Is it possible that I tested too early and I could STILL be pregnant even though the test says I am not?

Anyone had any experiences that ended up being pregnant after being a week late that tested negative?

Answer 1

It is possible that you tested too early, but it is also possible that the stress caused by wanting a baby is affecting you. Statistics indicate that once you stop focusing so strongly on trying, it will probably happen, at least if you and your mate have no health issues to prevent conception. If you are in doubt, why not check with your doctor? He/she can probably reassure you about your viability (and prescribe a good prenatal vitamin), and that may help you to relax. I wish you the best!

Answer 2

well i have two children and my symptoms, well i hardly had any in the beginning so every woman has a different experience. I suggest you go to the doctor. btw white discharge could be that you have a yeast infection. sometimes the home pregnancy tests wont show if you are pregnant but anyways a week late is too soon to tell. for my second pregnancy a doctor told me i was having a miscarriage because he couldn't see the fetus in the sac, i was only 5 weeks pregnant at that time. and when i went to my follow up it turns out the baby was ok and now my son is 7 months. don't stress, if you stress it will become harder to get pregnant. Also when he cums in you make sure your laying down with a pillow under your buttocks lay there for 15 minutes. Trust me that's how i had my first child. Just like u i couldn't for 5 years. Good luck

The pregnancy kits that you buy over the counter are good but not great. It might have been too early for the test to accurately measure the necessary hormones. You could always give it a try again.

If you're trying to conceive have you considered the other methods that might help? ie: ovulation predictor and keeping a log book of your regular periods. if not, you can talk to your Dr. about it because thats a good possibility.

Answer 4

It is possible. I got 2 negative tests and didn't get a positive test until I was 2 weeks late. So, if you are still late, take another test in a few more days. Hopefully you'll get a different result!

If not, relax and have fun trying!

Answer 5

My dear Friend,
The day you stop thinking about it so much and working on it so hard it will happen. Take this from a person who has gone through it herself. I didn't have kids for 7 years and well I had tried everything- to no avail, the one day I just gave up on it - and a couple of months later there it was positive as hell. so do not keep getting tense over it- you will finally be there when you least expect it.
:)

Answer 6

Those are all signs of pregnancy but you need to goto the dr and get a blood pregnancy test done there. You might not have enough hormones to do a home pregncy test and it be acurate

Answer 7

try a test again in a week

Answer 8

Only your GYN could tell you for sure.

Remember, there's something called a psychological pregnancy.
