Getting Upset

Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting but I have been reading for the past 3 weeks and hope you all can help me. My LMP was on Sept 23rd and I have had every sign and symptom possible. In my heart I believe I am pregnant but thats not what the HPT said. AF is due this Thursday and I am always on time so I took a test today and it was Negative :( does that really mean I am not pregnant or is there a possibility since i haven't missed my period yet? My girlfriend tested 2 days before her period and it showed positive. So if I was preganant it probably would have showed right? Please tell me there is still a chance that I am. Any advice would be great. Also My DH and I B'd on my most fertile day which was Oct 9th. Thanks

I believe we have the same most fertile day for what it's worth - lol

Wait until you actually miss it. Some people can test way early, other's can't. Your body may not produce as much hormone as early as your friends.

Hey Nikki

It took me 5 HPT's to get a positive answer. I swore up and down I was pregnant and each time I took a test it came up negative, even the day after I was supposed to get AF. Don't get down because you definatley could be pregnant. I would wait until your missed AF and then test again. Good luck and let me know the outcome. I am actually testing on 10/27 if AF doesn't come, so pray for me and I will do the same for you!!! :o)

If it is any help, a friend of mine did not show a positive result until 6 days after her missed AF...and that was with an "early" HPT. I would definately wait a few more days and test again.

Good Luck!

Nikki,

I have talked to my brother about htp's a lot lately (he's a 3rd year med student), and he told me "Every obgyn who has come to talk to the class all said the same thing... You have to wait at least 11 days..." I don't know if that is *entirely* true, because plenty of ladies here have had a positive result sooner than that. But! Everyone is different. I'd wait until you're late... then test & see what happens. Good luck & keep us posted!

Wow, really? That gives me a little hope that I'm really looking for! I am 11 days late today...but still negative...but have some signs. Bizarre...but thanks for sharing that info!
