I'm Currently Feeling:  |  Loosing faith girls - advice and reassurance needed
Hey girls, just to update you all, i am now 6 days late for my period which is so unusual for me and every pregnancy test (cheep and brandname) is saying I am not preggers
Getting tightenings in my abdomin but i'm not sure if these are because my mind is going into overdrive about my missing period.
Docs on monday for a test and if that comes back negative am going to ask them to do bloods.
I am really worried that if i am not pregnant then something else is wrong or of course if i am and the HCG isn't strong enough to be picked up on tests that there may be something wrong with the baby...
What i really want to know from you girls is, how effective have you found pregnancy tests and have any of you ever had negatives when you were actually pregnant
Thanks in advance |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | dont worry about it.
For some women, tests dont work until they're over a week late.
And i read somewhere that sometimes HPTs dont work EVER for some women. Getting a bloodtest would be a good idea  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | HI THE BEST THING TO DO IS ASK DOCS FOR A TEST. I WAS 12 DAYS LATE ON GOT A BFP!! NEXT DAY GOT A BFN??!! TEST DRIVE YOU CRAZY AND DONT REALLY PUT YOUR MIND TO REST(I THINK ANTWAY) ASK FOR BLOOD TESTS ITS THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE.
GOOD LUCK XX | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Good luck at the doctors tomorrow. Could just be that u caught later than u thought and its too early for the HGC level to give a positive test result. Will keep fingers crossed for u and hopefully doctors can do blood test to be sure xx |
