Im wondering if i am pregnant, but im not sure how to calculate how late i am. Do i count from the first day of my last period, or the last day?
I dont know exact dates, i belive i was in the middle of it on April 20th. How late am i?
With my last child, 6 out of the 8 pregnancy tests were negative, and i was 7 weeks pregnant. I took a test two days ago and it said negative.

You count from the first day of your last period. And when to test would depend on how long your periods usually last.
If your period is on a 30 day cycle, then you should have started May 20th. But you said you were in the middle etc.
A test two days ago still could have been too early. I would try waiting another week and testing again.
Keeping track of your cycle is really good if your trying to conceive. Just write down the first day of your period, and the first day of your next period. Count the days in between and that gives you an average of your cycle length, which can help determine approx. when you ovulate.
Best wishes!

Its the first day of your last period. Its only the 24th so you may just be late but if the middle of your period was on the 20th and I assume yours lasts 5- 7 days ( maybe less) then you would be 7 days late at the most.

If you don't trust the urine test (which should only be taken as early as 14 days after conception or 5 days after your first missed period which ever you'd rather wait for), the best advise is to call and schedule an appt with an OB/GYN. Explain your "test" issues and they'll preform the blood test. You have to wait a couple of days for the results but it's a definate yeah or neah regardless of the urine tests and they can also tell you exactly how pregnant you are.

You count from the first day of your last period. Today is day 34. This may or may not be late, it depends on your cycle length. Today is day 33 for me and my period is due on Friday. Make an appointment with your doctor if you are concerned.
