Hey! I'm going through the same thing right now. I started testing last week when I was way too early, right up to two days late with nothing but -. Here I am at 4 days late and I just feel pregnant. I have to remind myself that with all of my pregnagncies I didn't test + until at least 3 days late. Some times the fertilezed ovum just floats around the uterus for a couple of extra days before implanting. Also, sometimes you just ovulate a little late, and both of those things could result in a getting you BFP later than you would expect.

It's funny how I remember all of these things to help other frustrated women, but I still stress out when it comes to the same situation for myself!

Thank u so much for the great advice, I do feel better. It is funny how I feel symptoms of pregnancy increase every day (tired, nausea, slight headaches, always hungry, swollen breasts (blue veins)) but then when I took the test this morning (the day AF was due) I just could not believe it was "-". I keep telling myself that the past two week symptoms could just have been PMS or AF coming, but I feel different somehow. Will wait a couple more days (or maybe more if I can stand to) while keeping fingers crossed that AF does not show up (I am usually regular like clock work) and test again then. I know that if I am not pregnant that there will always be next month but then I imagine myself going threw all this wait and anxiety again and it drives me nuts.

Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too. Thanks again for your help and kind words.
