I am currently 4 days late on my period. I took a pregnany test on the first day and it came out negative. I am and have been on Seasonique birth control pills for the last 9 months and before that I was on Depo (the shot). I did miss a couple pills by like 12 hrs. My last period was the last week of January (on the seasonique pill you have a week long period every three months). I thought by now my period would be normal (it was the last time i had it) but I still haven't had it yet! I've been using the restroom a lot more than usual, I get dizzy occasionally, and have been feeling as if I need more sleep every day, and ocassional breast tenderness, swollen breasts as if they are bigger, sensitivity to certain odors, and some abdominal bloating. I even recall spotting a couple of weeks ago. I have been feeling this way for the past 2 weeks. I don't know what to think and would hate to waste a trip to the doctors office. Should I take another test and if so when, or am I going crazy?

yes take another test, mine kept saying nagative, but i took 3 and finally, after 2 weeks late it said POSITIVE!
i had sore breasts and cramps! I was confused too.
( I was on the patch...but missed a week because I was out of town and forgot to pack a new one!)

wait a week and take another test, and then go to the doctor. some women can be pregnant but have negative test results. sadly, these women are also at higher risk for miscarriage, because of hormonal imbalances.... a doctor can help with that.
but keep in mind, a lot of the symptoms you're describing can come from hormonal upheaval... like when you've been on the pill for 3 months and then suddenly come off. i was on seasonique, and when i got off, i did get my period but also went through a couple of weird moody weeks where everything smelled and tasted funny to me.
sorry i haven't given you a definite answer, but this is all i know! :) good luck!

Unbelievable. Go get a simple pregnancy blood test. If you get positive for Corionic Gonadotropin, Congratulations.
That is the hormone that stops menstruation in its tracks for the next nine months and a sure sign of pregnancy.
Also, a trip to your doctor's office in this case would never ever be a waste. Where babies are concerned, there is no skimping.

Well, to be honest, you may be pregnant. I took a test & was negative, but a week later was positive. You may not have the right level of hormone yet to be detected by a HPT. I would wait until you are at least a week late.

Hi there, i'm no doctor but 4months pregnant, you have most definate signs of being pregnant, i'd just go to the drs & get them to test you (by blood test) and that way you will know for sure but yes i'd definately say you are.
If your happy about it then Congrats!!!! X
