Missed AF, Neg P Test, Confused!

Hi, Just need someone to talk to. My mind is going crazy thinking I may be preganant. My LMP was on Oct. 8th. My cycle is like clockwork. Well based on a 28 - 30 day cycle I should have gotten AF between Nov. 4 - 6. I am a week late. If my cycle is changing, I usually get AF a week late, but there has been no signs of it starting any time soon. My cousin and I are on the same cycle, a difference of a day or two, and she started AF on Nov. 1st. I had a urine P test at my dr's office yesterday, but it was neg. He also said there was trace of blood in urine so he thinks I have an UTI. I don't feel like I have an UTI, but he said it was possible due to the blood found. I have had no pinkish blood w/ mucus, cramping, bloading or any of my usual symptoms of AF starting. It's the same ritual every month. BTW, I do have a creamy light yellowish discharge that has been around for 3 1/2 weeks. Dr. (not GYN) thinks it may be yeast infection. But it started at time ovulation was to begin and hasn't stopped since then. Around AF time, my breast do get a little tender. I feel that way now. Tender breast, missed AF and more frequent trips to relieve bladder are the only signs of pregnancy. But still I have that neg. P test from yesterday. I'm going crazy that I want to take a HPT today and see what results I get. I hear it could be possible HCG level is not high enough to detect in urine test. This will be second child as my first DD just turned 4 years old yesterday. Either way, I only talked to my best friend and she too had a neg. test before even w/ her fourth pregnancy. Dr's told her positive line was too light and said she wasn't. She proved them wrong and she tested days before AF was to start.

Any advise, suggetions, or just let me know someone else is going through the same thing. I just wanted to talk to someone other than best friend.

Thanks,

Melissa

Hi,

I am having the same exact problem. The first day of my last p was October 9th, so I was supposed to be between the 6 and 8 of Nov. Nothing yet, not even a sign. I feel like my boobs have gotten bigger and I can wear alot of my jeans. Plus i have been hungry ALL the time and going to the bathroom alot. I have a 5 year old and had no signs when i found out with him. I know this doesn't really help you out much but i just thought I would let you know you aren't alone.

Thank You Melissa. It helps to know that I'm not alone. The only sign I had w/ my first pregnancy was frequent urination. Other symptoms such as nausea, tender breast, and vomiting did not start until after positive hpt at 7 weeks. I also lost 5lbs (I gained 10 w/ the first one w/i a month). Clothes still fit the same. I have a lost of appetite or I'm getting fuller faster. Another strange thing is I normally have isomnia, but have been feeling tired as early as 8pm. I started to sleep on stomach position (I haven't done this since first PG). I'm going to take a hpt today or tomorrow morning (not sure when is the best time of day). Just want to see for myself a neg or pos as I didn't see the actual test at my dr's office. I'm quite anal that way. I wish you the best of luck w/ the answer you are hoping for. I'll keep in touch and let you know what happens.

Melissa

Yeah I didn't have any either. Actually I had nausea in the evening with my first and I just realized that it is happening again sometimes. Good luck on your testing.

Hi Melissa - I just tested a few minutes ago and the hpt was neg. So confused to why I am a week late and having no signs of AF starting any time soon. I guess I'll wait a week to see if AF appears or to take another hpt. If it still shows neg, I'm going to call the doc and make an appt. I never really miss an AF, but if my cycle is changing, the longest it took was two weeks. This was years ago, but it's a possibility. Thanks for your support and I hope we both get an answer to why we are late soon. Take care and I'll peak around in here to see how everyone is doing.

FYI - I just remembered the first time I tested w/ my first PG I was three weeks late. Maybe It takes that long for my HCG levels to be high enough to show on a hpt.

This is really weird it sounds like we are on the same wave length. I am also having th eslight discharg that I usually don't have. I have had a couple of times today where I felt sick. Maybe you are right, too early to get a result. Let me know how it goes and I will post.

Boy oh boy! I think we are on the same page here. My LMP was 10/28. I've been feeling crampy, moody, full all the time, breasts are a little tender and I just want to sleep. My son will be 5 in February and I am in the dark here. I don't want to eat junk. I'm constantly going to the bathroom and I can't stand to have anything on my stomach. Makes me nauseaus. I planned on testing on the 18th. I am like CLOCKWORK as far as AF goes. But in the back of my mind I'm thinking I am. And the sad part of it all is, I have a Preggo test in my car that I am DYING to take!!

SO...as I sit here and eat my dry cereal with a spoon, I contimplate..should I or shouldn't I test. This is the question of the day.

Good luck to you. I know how crazy this is making you.

Hi Yannie,
