Hey rachel...I am in the same boat as you and I would def like to hear replys to see what is good to buy. I havent had my period yet and was due last week although I am normally late I fluctuate from 5 to 10 weeks in between, but have been completely normal the last 4 months so that worries me...Anyways I would love to hear what kinds of symptoms you are having as I do not know what is going on...Def dont know if I am making things late by worring about them. The only symptom that I have that worries me is that my af started, I thought, twice now and never actually came.

Anyways if anyone could share advise about symptoms and such...Also on how it happened...My bf and I use protection...I know that it is not full proof but if I am...This is nuts.

First response or clear blue easy digital are good test. With both of them you can test up to five days before your missed period. But with the clear blue it says either pregnant or not pregnant so you don't have to second guess your self at seeing lines. I wish both of you luck and you get the positive or negitive that you want, I hope ya'll test soon and post ya'lls results I would really like to know what they are.

Hi
I am 2 weeks and 1 day late for my af, I have hed 2 tests last week and I went to a clinic to have one yesterday which came back negative! But I am having cravings for pickled eggs, most days I feel sick and I feel much more sleepier then usual. The nurse wants me to go back in a week to test agian if I still have not got my af. My cousin went through the same thing with her first child, but it was due to her hormones been to low,has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks in advance and baby dust to us all

My cousin went through the same thing. She had took a whole bunch of hpt's and all negitive the only thing that showed up positive was a blood test. U may want to get a blood test done.

Thanks! Do I just go to the doctors and explain to them my situation or do I have to wait a bit longer to see if I get a positive? Thanks again for your reply

Just go to your doctors and they will probably do a pee test and if it turns out negitive then request a blood test. Or do like my cousin did she went to urgent care and got one.
