Ok, here it is. I was supposed to get my AF on August 16th and it never came. On the 11th I had some spotting which was gone the next day, I considered that it could have been implantation bleeding but at the same time I didn't want to come to conclusions in case I was wrong so I decided to wait until the 16th and see what happens. After being late for 3 days I tested with a hpt but it came back negative, today is the 25th of August and I still didn't get my period, I took another hpt this morning but again it came back negative although this time the line wasn't as strong (I'm not even sure if that makes any difference). Please, could somebody tell me if there is a chance that I might be pregnant. My husband and I have only been ttc for the past 2 months but it's already driving me crazy, we both want a baby so bad. Anyways, I would appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks.

lets see here, you had implant bleeding on the 11th, if anything, right? it's been 2 weeks since then, and still a neg test.... i would wait until it's 2 weeks after AF was due, and test again, in the morning, and see what that says- be sure to use an EARLY hpt, one of the ones that tests from 4 days before AF was due~ it could be that since you implanted later, that you're not showing positive on the tests because there's not enough of the hormone to test~

First Response Early Response can test the SMALLEST levels possible, on a home test-

and if your home test is still negative, on that day, i would call the Doc and see what they say~ they could probably do a blood test, in that case~

good luck hon!

I know your situation all too well.. My AF was due on the 17th and never came .. and still isnt here.. Ive taken 2 tests one at home and one at the clinic and both were BFN!! ( depressing isnt it ) only thing I can think of to tell you is.. call your doctor and request a blood test to be 100%.. I think I might do that as well.. Might wait another week tho..maybe my AF will show herself..Hope all turns out well for you!! Good Luck TTC..

Thank you guys, it feels good to know that I am not the only one feeling the way I do. For some reason I thought that it would be a lot easier to get pregnant but I'll just keep on trying until I get it right. ;o)I will wait another week and try another hpt, this time I'll use the brand that you guys suggested (I'm currently using "accu clear", it's the cheapest one that I could find plus you get 2 for the price of 1, maybe that's why I wasn't able to tell by now), if it still comes back negative then I'm going to see my doctor. Good luck to you too!!!!
