Another Period Question :)

I would call the doc and get a blood test. It's rare, but some people have been known to get repeated false negative results with urine pregnancy tests - just watch "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" on the Discovery Channel! :-) Hope you get the results you're hoping for!!

It could be your pregnant and it's too early to tell via urine test. It could be stress, weight loss/gain, something you have eaten more or less of lately, change of medication. Wait 10 days, if you don't have it do a home test, if negative, wait 10 more days, if nothing then call your Gyne and ask.

I think you've heard all the advice from the other mamas, but I wanted to chime in to let you know you're not alone. I've had this happen to me a few times, and since I'm trying to conceive, I get excited each month, only to get my period late. I started doing the ClearBlue ovulation tests, and I've discovered I'm not ovulating sometimes, so that could be the cause. I also get nauseated, but the doc thinks I have severe heartburn that is manifesting itself through nausea.

If you still don't have your period in the next week, I'd definitely check with your ob/gyne. Best of luck! M.

My best friend has two boys and with both of her boys every pregnancy test she took came up negative. She was almost four months before she got a positive result.

Give it another week and take another test....then make an appointment with your doctor.

Not sure if this is what you want to hear or not, but you may not be far along enough to register positive on a test yet. I took many pregnancy tests with my first daughter that showed up no and finally one showed up positive. I would wait maybe a few more days and take another test, then if still no, I would call the doctor to see what is going on. With my second, I also had no period, thought we were pregnant but not sure what happened. Ended up having to take some pills to bring on my period and get it going again.

There are so many reasons this could be happening with you but let me say this, my periods are pretty consistant every 30 days or so. I have always got a period every month except when I'm pregnant lol. My hubby and I started trying to get pregnant in June and I never ovulated. I went to my dr after 60 days of no ovulating and they gave me pills to start my period. I'm not sure what happened but now that I just finished my period we can start trying again.

I had this happen one time. It took me almost two weeks to get a positive pg test, even though with other pregnancies I tested positive before I was due to get my period. I miscarried a week after the positive pg test, so I think something had to be really wrong with the pregnancy for all of that to happen. Good luck.

Hi L. Check with your GYN/OB doctor and see what he/she says. It could be nothing. I personally never had this problem. Anytime I was late, I was pregrant. But check with your doctor to may sure it's nothing serious.

I would go see a gynocologist and have them give you a pregnacy test. I knew when I was pregnant, but my doctor still insists to give me one to confirm. If you are not pregnant, are you active in sports? I know when I hit a certain percentage of body fat I stop having periods or become very irregular when I excercise a lot.
You seem too youg to go through menopause, but I had a cousin that went through it at age 30. Or are you stressed? That could have some effect on your periods too. I would wait a week, if no period, go see your doctor.

Yes, I have for a couple of years. My ob/gyn said that our cycles can go 27 - 35 days in between & can change month to month Especially as we are getting older & just everyday life stresses.

Hi L.! This actually did happen to me last summer, and I was trying to conceive so I got all excited thinking the tests were just wrong. They're weren't. I even went to the doc to have blood tests taken to see if I was pg and the HPTs wasn't catching it.

My doctor said this happened because I hadn't ovulated that month. Apparently this happens to women every so often, even ones with very regular cycles such as mine. When you don't ovulate, your hormones are confused and your period doesn't know when it should start since the hormones that control your period are all out of whack.

However, they say there are women out there who become pregnant but don't have enough HCG in their system to trigger a positive HPT for several weeks. If your period doesn't come in another couple of days, I'd call your doc and have a blood draw done just to be sure.

Good luck! : )

You most likely ovulated late. Stress can cause this. Try reading the turtorials on www.fertilityfriend.com for more information on how your cycle works and what can affect it. Another great book is Taking Charge of Your Ferility. It can help you learn the ins and outs of your body, when trying to avoid or trying to concieve.

Hi L.
This happened to me, I swore I was pregnant, boobs, back tired etc. Apparently your mind can really take over your body because I was not prego and my period came extremely light 2 weeks late. Not sure if thios is helpfull or not however your not alone I'm sure!

V.

I went through that for six months; I was late every month and had the prego symptoms. My seventh month going through the same thing, I finally tested positive; Tommy Isaiah came into the world four months ago.

I asked the doctor why this had happened; thinks it may just be the bodyu going through changes,

Good luck to you and I'm sorry I don't have a better explanation for you.

hi L. well i been having the same problem i've waited tree weeks to 2months to taking a test and both said i wasnt and then i got my period but it was really strange and not normal and i was in pain i couldnt even pic up my daughter or even stand but i still havent figured out what is going on i plan on going to the docotor you should to make an app with your doc they can give an ultra sound and really find out it might be something more serious then were thinking...good luck!

If you are really concerned you need to call you OB/GYN on Monday morning, otherwise just give it a few days and see if Aunt Flow arrives late.

L.,
I would say wait another couple of days and then try another brand of pregnancy test.....EPT maybe. My period comes anywhere between 26-31 days...the older you get, the less consistent your cycle will be.

HI L.,
I experienced something like this in that I have a fairly regular cycle averaging around 30 days with periods lasting about 3 days. Well, last month when I was expecting to get my period on the 21st I didnt get it until the 30th - ie a 40 day cycle!!! I also took a prego test on the 27th and it was negative. I think it was stress related.
