Hello everyone..Please help! I've never, ever been late (but been early many times) and I'm now 8 days late with lots of symptoms..sore nipples,light cramping, acid stomach with some nausea, tired, discharge, and my BBT is still elevated. Today I started craving meat and milk.Timing of intercourse was perfect. But all HPts are negative, as well as the urine test done by a clinic yesterday. Please give me some hope! Also, if hcg is low this late, is that a bad sign? Oh..I'm 44 and this would be our first. We're praying!

Hi. I just wanted to let you know I am going through the same thing. I just stopped taking b/c in Sept. And now I am 11 days late. And have taken 3 HPT's and they have all been neg. I have had the light cramping off and on, sore nipples, and disch. I haven't gone to the doc. yet though. It is very confusing and frustrating, especially if you are wanting to be pregnant!! We just have to keep our fingers crossed! I hope that it all works out for you. :)

I am having the exact same things. I am now 9 days late and have taken several hpt's and all have been negative. At about 6 dpo I started having light cramping, they come and go sometimes a little stronger, sometimes very light but not at all like a menstrual cramp. I also have had a few headaches, mild nipple tenderness, increased cm, elevated temp, a few bouts of mild nausea, increased emotion up and downs. Today I had tingling sensations in my nipples and one almost felt leaky, but it wasnt. I wish I knew what was going on, I am never more than a day late so this is driving me crazy!!! Any ideas??

There have been a handful of women on here that have tested w/BFN well into their pregnancy. The one that sticks in my mind the most is the one that did not get a BFP until in her 11th week with both pregnancies. Go and have a blood test done.

I took a test when my period was two days late with an extremely sensitive test (detects 20 miu's of hcg) and it had a very, very faint line. So, I imagine if I had used a test that wasn't as sensitive it would have been negative. I think it is possible to test negative for a while. Try using a more sensitive test. The one I used is from babyhopes.com.

Good Luck,
