And nervous about being pregnant. I tested this morning and I didn't use my first urine for the day but the test said that was ok to, and it tested NEGATIVE. Now I am very boggled because I am not late ever and I was due for my cycle last Wed. Any thoughts? Should I consider retesting?

I would really like some feedback on this.

thanks.

It could be that you are stressed about something and your cycle was thrown off...also travel, illness, medications can throw your cycle off. Unfortunately our bodies react to all kinds of outside stimulants so it's possible that you are just being affected by something else. If you want to be sure, wait a few days and test with FMU...if you're still unconvinced, see your doctor or at least call him/her and ask some questions.

I'm sorry to sound ignorant. What does FMU stand for? I have not yet studied up on all the abbreviations around here. If you would like to help me out that would be wonderful.

FMU stands for First Morning Urine. It is best to use that because it has the highest concentration of the hormone HCG.
