okay so today was my 12th day of being late. I got off work and bought an hpt. i thought i felt something so i went to the bathroom and wiped and i saw brown streaks. I came home and went to the bathroom and saw pink blood so i was like, okay i just started my period. i took the test anyway and it was negative.
but i havent bled anymore since. just those brown streaks and the pink blood.
is there any chance i could still be pregnant? and if so, would that have been to soon to take that test?
 
I've read on here some women don't get a positive til up to and over 16dpo just everyones body is different FX for you!!!
 
it said i was suppose to ovulate on the 16th though :/ so this would be way past 16dpo. So that test might have been too soon to tell?
 
Im confused when you saw 12th day being late? If you mean your AF was due 12 days ago and you are getting negative HPT then doesnt look good Im afraid.
 
Hi candy,

similar thing going on with me. I am now 11 days late. about 6 days ago ( so 5 days late) i had a one off bleed in the morning, and have had nothing since. 2 days ago i tested and got a BFP, followed by two BFN . so haven't a clue what's going on.
Don't worry too much about how many days late you are, i was 6 WEEKS pregnant with my son before a test picked up on it, so you can be much later than 16dpo and still get a BFP.
Keep us informed of what happens hun, and good luck.

this should hel love, well i hope it does lol!
It's impossible to say for sure at this stage. If your period is usually right on schedule and you are now late, you might well be pregnant. On the other hand, it's not uncommon for women to get their period a few days late sometimes.

If the suspense is too much for you to bear, consider taking a home pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced around the time the fertilised egg implants in your womb. Your hCG levels rise sharply thereafter.

Home tests are able to detect fairly low levels of hCG. It's best to do them with your first urine of the day because it's more concentrated, so should contain more hCG. Follow the directions carefully, and you might get a result this early. If you get a negative result, but your period still doesn't arrive, you might want to try doing another test after a few days.

Lots of women have pregnancy symptoms early on, though not usually until two weeks after a missed period. Sore, tingly or tender breasts may be your earliest indicator of pregnancy, although some women feel this way before each period. Nausea and fatigue are other common pregnancy symptoms, and so is a need to wee more frequently.

It is thought that implantation (when the embryo attaches itself to the lining of the womb) can sometimes cause spotting. One small prospective study, of 151 pregnant women in the US, found that nine per cent of women had at least one day of bleeding in early pregnancy. The authors of this study concluded that bleeding was associated more strongly with the day when a woman's period was due, rather than implantation.

If you have other symptoms, such as a one-sided pain low down in your tummy, see your midwife or doctor immediately; you could have an ectopic pregnancy (when the embryo implants in the fallopian tube rather than the womb). Bleeding with abdominal pain may also be a sign of an impending miscarriage, but that certainly isn't true in every case.

Finally, it's possible that the blood you saw may have nothing to do with pregnancy. Your cervix could be inflamed and bleed easily, especially after cervical smears, internal examinations or sex. Or you may have an infection. Either way, it's always important to report any bleeding between periods or after sex to your doctor.

If you do get your period and haven't yet scheduled a pre-pregnancy visit to your GP, consider doing so now. She will examine you and take you and your family's medical history to identify any potential problems or genetic risks. She can also check that you are immune to rubella (which can be harmful to newborn babies) with a simple blood test.

Use this time to re-evaluate your lifestyle; smoking, drinking, and drugs are not compatible with pregnancy. On the other hand, exercise and a good diet will help you now and throughout your pregnancy.
 
Bleeding and Ovulation
Although women usually think of it as bleeding during ovulation, this mid-cycle spotting actually seems to happen just before ovulation occurs during a decline in the woman's estrogen level. This decline is a normal part of the menstrual cycle.

Estrogen and Menstrual Bleeding
During a woman's period, the level of estrogen in her body is fairly steady. As bleeding stops, estrogen begins to rise slowly, and the uterine lining begins to thicken. At the same time, other hormones cause one of the woman's two ovaries to get ready to release an egg. The estrogen level rises most rapidly just before ovulation, which is when the egg leaves the ovary. Just before ovulation, estrogen drops quickly, although the level remains higher than before the surge. After ovulation, estrogen rises again slightly and then, if the egg is not fertilized by a man's sperm, falls again.

Mid-Cycle Bleeding
Menstrual bleeding (a "period") happens during the second drop in estrogen. In some women, though, the first estrogen drop appears to trigger bleeding, too. This mid-cycle bleeding is usually light and brief.

hope this helps u 2 girls gud look xxx
 
thank you all ....so even if it is my period that came, do i need to schedule an appointment with a doctor? i dont have a doctor though if i do need to set up an appointment. so ill have to figure out what to do about that. but yeah i have been getting pains in my side on and off the past couple days. the cramps are on and off too. usually the first day of my period it is heavy. but right now its still pink blood. How much blood would it be normal to have if it was indeed implantation? and if it is, how soon can i take another test??
