7 Weeks Late: Still Negative Hpt’s.
I’m just curious, how many of you out there are weeks late and are still getting negative hpt’s? I’m just really confused because I am over 7 weeks late now, and still getting negative hpt’s. I’ve taken at least 10 different tests. I’ve tried Clear Blue, First Response, EPT, and some other brands, all of which came out negative. I guess I don’t know what to think because every test that I’ve taken has said negative, but yet I’m over 7 weeks late. I have some symptoms, but not a lot of them. Sometimes I think it could all be in my head, but at the same time I don’t. I didn’t even think that I could be pregnant until I was late for my period, and now I’m more confused than ever. My breasts don’t feel any different, but then again they never do, not even when I get my period. Before 8 hours of sleep was more than enough for me, and now 8 hours is not enough. I have back pain, and I have cramps like you would get before you’re going to get your period, but my period never accompanies the cramps. I have heart burn, and I have never in my life had heart burn before. I feel sick all the time. I constantly feel like I am going to throw up, but I never actually throw up, I just always feel like I have to. I’m a smoker, and lately the smell of smoke and smoking in general makes me sick, so I have since stopped smoking. I am just so confused and frustrated at the same time because like I said, I am over 7 weeks late, and every test that I’ve taken came out negative. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Mandy & Meg, I’m interested to know how your u/s went. Anita - we’re close to the same - I am 12 days late. Usually am right on time, but this time neg at 3 days late. 3 faint positives between 5 and 10 days late, then negative today w/ an hpt. Very confused. I’m thinking I’m on the way to a miscarriage. Waiting for bloodwork and am scheduled for u/s tomorrow. Miscarried a couple of months ago so I’m nervous for sure. Some of the stories I’ve read give me hope, though. Guess I’ll know more in 24hrs.

I’m not scheduled to have the ultrasound done until March 29th. I have 3 more weeks of this waiting game to wait out. This whole process is so frustrating. I think it’s a shame when you can’t be taken seriously by a doctor. There was a lot of carelessness on my doctors part. I know I’m not crazy, and my body is telling me that something is going on. I have never had any problems with my cycle before and I have never been on birth control, so I know that’s not the problem. I don’t know what I have to do to be taken seriously by my doctor. I still have symptoms that come and go, and lately I’ve been throwing up quite a bit so something is definitely going on. Considering the fact that I am now over 10 weeks late, I’m thinking I am either very pregnant or something is very wrong. I don’t know why my doctor didn’t do a pregnancy blood test, that was my reason for going to see her in the first place. Like I said, she only checked my thyroid and another hormone to see if I was somehow pre-menopausal. She didn’t bother to check for hCG. I’ve been answer free for over 10 weeks now, and I really don’t want to have to wait 3 more weeks to get the ultrasound done. I’ve been talking about this with friends, and they all agree that I need to see another doctor and demand another blood test that includes an hCG check. I’ll keep you guys posted.

Mandy, you are not alone. My last af was 22 Nov, I have all the symptoms including the breast and nipple soreness which should be considered as early sign of pregnancy. I took 3-4 tests different brand but all of them negative (two of them showed positive after few hours and the faint line is still there even now after few days, but as I’ve read in the net and in this forum I shouldn’t consider positive because they are considered as evaporation line) and I totally understand your position but what else we can do. I have a doct’s appointment for u/s but I am so scared to be disappointed. So I would recommend to you to keep testing one more time after a week and than go and do a blood test. *** Baby dust to us all ***

Meg- Thanks for responding. Good luck with your ultra sound. I hope you get the news you’re expecting. I think I’m to the point where I can’t keep waiting it out, because I’ve been waiting it out for almost 2 months now and it’s doing nothing for me. I guess the most frustrating part about my whole situation is the fact that I’ve spent so much money on different pregnancy tests, all of which have given me the same answer, negative. You would think that after being over 7 weeks late that at least one test would give me a positive result because honestly what else would cause me to be this late? To me there’s just no other explanation. To be honest I’m a little scared to go to the doctor because of the fact that if the results come back negative, then it would mean that all of this was in my head, but like I said, I didn’t even start thinking about the possibility of being pregnant until I did in fact miss my period so I don’t know what to think.

Mandy, don’t be so dissapointed. It is normal once in a year to have hormonal imbalance so the period can be very late. There are many factors that cause this delay, but they can come back to normal as well. But, many of the women from this forum experienced to be pregnant but with all neg HPTs, neg urine test, neg blood test, but when seen in u/s they were three months prego. Miracles do happen, and I wish this miracle will be for you and me as well. The most important is not to be stressed to much (as I am) because stress will not help. We should think clearly: We are Pregnant or We aren’t pregnant - this is the result that we are going to get. Cheer up and don’t think negative. *** Good Luck and keep me posted :o)

I’m being as positive as I can be considering my frustration with all of my home pregnancy tests coming out negative. When I go to the doctor I will know the truth, either I’m pregnant or I’m not. I’m going to try to get in to see my doctor on Friday and I will keep you posted as to how it goes.

My last period was on Jan 2nd. I know it is soon for me…but I feel all the symtoms, tired, dizzy, soarness in my breasts and that constant feeling like you are going to vomit. I took two tests in the last 2 weeks and they both show negative. How frustrating…however, I just recently miscarried this past November, but have had 2 periods since. So I am not sure what is going on. I am actually going to my regular doctor today, in hopes that he will do a blood test. I am really nervous. I do not want to go through that again, but I am not sure why the tests would show up negative. I wish I had more advice for you, but I am in the same boat.
Good luck.

Mandy, Did your results come in? I period is now 10 day’s late and i have take 3 home tests. All negative. I have a doctors appointment on Friday, but I am also scared of the results. I have been trying to get pregnant for over 2 years and had 1 miscarrage at the begining. I am so stressed and confussed. I wish doctors would take me more seriously, I’m only 25 so they say I have to wait to see another doctor.
