I am about 5 days late on a 28 day cycle. I have mild cramping off and on. No period whatsoever and I am having a whitish/clear discharge more so than usual. I took a pregnancy test at 4 days late and it was negative. I have taken others prior to that and they were negative. If I am pregnant it would be about 4 weeks. I know that the best determination is to get a blood test and I'm wondering how much longer I should wait? My husband and I are trying so hard to be paitent! If anyone has any advice/ similar stories please share! Thanks & God Bless!

I had a period on October 2 and comes November 3 I took a test and it was negative so I went till December thinking I was not pregnant due to negative results and after not getting a period for over 2 1/2 months went to the doctor and guess what I was 14 weeks pregnant and never would have guessed it. So yes you could be pregnant even if you get a negative and even if you have a period.
Go to the doctor they will not think you are crazy or anything like that they know that women have negatives and are still pregnant.

You should take a pregnancy test when your 2 weeks late.
With both of my kids, It didn't show up on a pregnancy test until I was 3 weeks late. Some women have lower hormone levels so it takes a lot longer for it to show up on a test.
Discharge and the cramps could mean your going to be starting your period anytime now. Those are Period symptoms.
Just wait it out. Sometimes your period is late because of stress in your life or a change in diet. A lot of different things can affect your period.
Your need to wait until your at least, AT LEAST 2 weeks late.
Take a home pregnancy test when your 2 weeks late. If it says negative then be patient and wait one more week. If then it still says negative and you haven't started your period go into the doctor.
Just wait it out. Your period is most likely going to start.
Just be patient and wait another week or two.
Good luck.

If I were you I would wait a few more days and take another test, if that test comes up negative and you still haven't started your period then you should make an appointment with your Dr to get a blood test. At least it is a good sign that you are late!!! I hate the waiting game, hang in there and good luck!

I would give it a few more days if i were you. Me and my husband are in the same boat trying so hard for another baby. One month i was 15 days late but eventually got my period which sucked. when i was pregnant with my first baby, several tests said negative but after a few more the last one said positive. Hopefully everything works out for the best and good luck.

i don't know if i would go just yet. being anxious about being pregnant can put you under more stress than you realize and that can delay a period. it is difficult to say whether your symptoms really are tell tale signs. my sister in law had mild cramps when she got pregnant, but i have had times where i have been late and had mild cramps, but i was just late. the biggest sign is breast tenderness. wait a week longer, take a better test (like a digital one) and then call your doctor.

You could be preggers. I did a test a few days after I was due and it was negative. Still I didn't get a period so my husband made me do another one and it was positive! Sometimes you need to have more hormones in your urine for it to be positive.
Having said that, try not to think about it (if that's at all positive) because stressing about it can prolong your period if you are going to get it.
I hope it's good news for you!

You have the same symptoms I did when I was pregnant with my son. If you are really impatient, you should probably go to the doctor and get the blood test. If you think you can wait a little, I would give it another couple of days, do another home pregnancy test and go from there.

Most people do not find out they are pregnant til they are about 5-6 or even 7 or 8 weeks in.

Stress makes it tougher to conceive. My wife and I tried for 4 years after our first and conceived after we just left it up to God (4 years later).
