I would say it is possible. You may just not have enough of the hormone in your system yet for the tests to detect, but usually by this time, it will. When I was TTC, I would determine the "average" number of days late that I had been over the past year (it took us a while) to see if I was still in the normal range of late or if this was unusual.

I know it's hard to wait, but you might wait a few more days to do another test. Just go ahead and take care of yourself as if you are pregnant.

Good luck and I hope things work out like you hope they do!

If you are truly 9 days late I would say you're probably not pg after getting 3 negative readings. I'm going thru the same thing right now ... I'm 8 days late, took a test yesterday, it was negative (which I fully expected). I think I'm having some hormonal changes or something else is going on with my body but I don't believe I'm pg. If I don't get "it" w/in a week I'll probably call my general practitioner & have things checked out.

Good luck to you, though. Keep us updated on your outcome. I'm very curious & hope for the best for you ... & maybe your little one!

There are a few factors you may want to condider. Are your cycles generally like clock-work are no? Any majoe stresses in your life, sometimes that can make us late. It is very possible to get a false negative, so I would wait a few days and test with a different brand of test to be sure. And like the previous post said, I would check with your Doc if no results either way.

Good luck!
