    Maybe??

    Hi, everyone! I'm new here, thought I'd throw this out there and see what you all think. My DH and I have been TTC for five months. My cycle is usually 30-32 days. On the conservative side, AF should arrive today. (Normally I have spotting for 2 days beforehand). No signs yet!! Took HPT Sunday night and Tuesday am...both neg. When I tested this morning I was thinking that I'm already two days late. But anyways...what I'm wondering is could I be PG? And when do you guys suggest testing again. I don't mind testing, but seeing that neg is a really awful feeling. Thank you all for your suggestions!!! Kristen

    Well if AF is late as of today, and you got a negative test... I'd wait a couple days, if still no AF test again... I would use a first response early results test...  If you're pg it will tell you!  Good luck!

    So, here's another question for you....Last night at work (I'm a Labor & Delivery nurse), I did a blood test. It was neg, but still no period, and no signs of it coming any time soon. So if the blood test was neg today, than I can be 100% sure I'm not PG? Are there any false neg's with blood testing? The reason I'm a little concerned is we have a scuba diving trip planned next weekend, and if there were any chance whatsoever that I'm PG, I wouldn't go. On the other hand, I dont want to skip it if I dont need to. Any thoughts??? Thanks, guys!!

    Are you sure that you are as far in your cycle as you think you are?  Like it is possible that you ovulated later, or that your LP is longer?   If you have regular cycles, and the blood test was neg.. Then I would have to say that maybe you aren't as far along in your cycle as you think, or that your LP is longer for whatever reason this cycle.....  If you have regular periods then there really shouldn't be any reason for AF to be late.....  I would think that if your period were late and a urine test were neg, then a blood test should pick up the hcg... Unless like I said you aren't where you think you are in your cycle.

    I've gone back and forth a hundred times...thinking I made a mistake somewhere. My LMP was 4/4, and my OT was pos on 4/17. I'm usually 30-32 days. Is my math off somewhere? Being conservative and saying 32 days, i should have been due yesterday, right? I always have two days of spotting before a period and I've had none of that. Its hard to come on this site and see how many of us are so desperately wanting to be pregnant. And I have to go back to work again tonight to take care of a new baby withdrawing from drugs. I dont see how that's fair. So off i go! Thanks for letting me vent....
