im really confused at the moment, after missing my period that should have started around the 19th march but didnt being pregnant never crossed my mind at the time i toke a pregnancy test on the 31 st which was neg and again yesterday also neg.
i know you should take a test from the day of your missed period, does this only apply to the first missed period - so i should be able to test anyyime after that or can you only test during the time you expect your period

As long as you follow the instructions on the box, you cant go wrong.

I went to my doctors when AF was 4 days late and got a BFP.

I would test again until AF turns up.

Good luck.

You can test from the day your period is missed, not just when it would be due.
So if you missed your period last week you would still be able to test now. I couldn't get enough of the little stick changing that I tested every couple of days for the first couple of weeks.

Tests work by monitoring HCG levels in your urine. If you're struggling, your levels could just be low, try testing first thing in the moring as the first wee of the day tends to be more concentrated

There are lots of reasons your period could be late, including things like stress, so if you do continue to have no sign of your AF then it might be worth booking to see your doctor anyway (they might also be able to suggest a more accure way of testing).

There are some tests that work early - I got my BFP 5 days early on a CB digital. I think it helps if you know when you O'd. I think I O'd early that month.
