9 days late, 2 BFNs - Now what? :(

[Louise81]

I can't believe that AF still isn't here! It has been as late as 39 days before though, so I could in fact only be three days late. But still, I'm late and I've had two BFNs (one yesterday). Do you think it's possible to *think* yourself out of getting AF?! I don't think I've ever missed a period before. And although I'm frustrated, I don't feel like I'm really stressed enough to make it late. I'm so confused though. I'm not sure what to do now.

I really don't feel like I have any signs either. My boobs are sore but that's normal (and they're not as bad as normal), I've had days of extreme hunger but it's not as bad anymore and could just be PMT. I'm not cramping. I don't feel sick. I never thought I'd want to feel sick like I do now!!

I've been using Tesco tests - should I try a more expensive brand? I can't really afford to keep testing though.

If I'm not pregnant, I just wish AF would come so that I can't at least be nearer to ovulating again!

why dont you get a blood test?

 

[*babydust*]

im in the same boat as you,af is late by 6 days,ive had 2 negative tests,last one on thursday.i havent tested again,because of not wanting to see anymore bfn's.i use the internet cheapy tests,my friend used one of my tsts and got a bfp,so cheapy tests do work.like you,i wish af would just come if its comming good luck,hope you get a bfp soon

it could b coz ur stressing over it too much, try not 2 worry bout it (easier said than done i know!) but stress can delay ur period xxx

I heard stress can only delay ovulation which can delay your period since your LP is usually the same length each month. Were you stressed a couple weeks ago?

I know how you ladies are feeling!!! My last cycle I was 16 days late!! And didn't really have AF symptoms besides mild cramping and sore boobs. Then 3 days they progressively got stronger and AF came! I did like 4 tests between that whole time waiting it out....all negative!!! Doesn't mean you are out! Try and test again in a few days if AF isn't here and you have more preg/AF symptoms perhaps. I have irregular cycles, so this is something to consider as well.

Justme00 is right....stress can delay Oing...so perhaps you just O'd late and the cycle is just longer this time.

let us know what happens ~ might want to try a diff hpt brand.

If AF still hasnt shown two weeks after it was meant to be due then i would probably go see a doctor.

 

[Louise81]

Thanks everyone. I'm not sure if I was stressed around ovulation... although I thought I was due to ovulate around Christmas and New Year so I could well have been stressed! LOL!

I'm not sure I would be able to get a blood test at this 'early' stage, but yeah, two weeks late would probably be a good time to go to the doctors. I think what I'll do is buy a Clear Blue test this week and then wait as long as I can before testing. Thanks for your help. I just have to wait it out... it sucks!

 

[ladymilly]

good luck testing

 

[faith_may]

Good luck when you test

good luck girls how frustrating! My af was 3 days late and i just wanted something to happen! I hope you get your bfps!

 

[Vickie]

Good luck testing! Are you normally very regular?

 

[Louise81]

Good luck testing! Are you normally very regular?

Thanks! Testing tomorrow. I've been regular 33 days for a few months. Before that I could sometimes be longer but never more than 39 days. This is day 43 which seems crazy!! The weird thing is, I was in a crappy mood last week, and now I feel fine. Almost like I've had AF... Really weird!!

go doc hunni have u had a stressful month or anything

I haven't really had a stressful month... just normal really. I think I'll wait a bit longer before going to the doctor because, on a 39 day cycle, I'm only really 5 days late. Was going to test today but decided to test tomorrow instead with FMU.

 

[Vickie]

Good luck testing

 

[loopylew]

aww good luck hun, hope you get your bfp, some girls on here et theres when they're two weeks late so theres still lots of hope

Did you get a blood test yet? I feel your frustration!! I was never late (except with first child) and so this time when 7 days late came around, I truly thought I was preg, BFN though, then 10 days late and BFN and then 14 days late and AF came. During all that time I was experiencing pregnancy symptoms (though I now think I was putting the symptoms down to pregnancy and hoping it was that), but it was not to be, I was just late, plain and simple. Was actually relieved when AF came, thank heavens, I could move on now. Got my LH surge this morning so about to embark on the whole ordeal all over again!
Hang in there though! I have read on these sites that 14 days late and testing neg (when you are in fact pregnant) is not that uncommon. Unfortunately, when you see postings that say this, it just gets your hopes up even more. It did mine.
Let us know what happens!!

It sounds like you are going through what Avistar went through last month. She had a very unusually long cycle as well. I wish you the best of luck!
