Still No Sign of a Period.... Posted: 09-21-03 23:09pm
I have posted thatt me and my boyfriend
had unprotected sex maybe 2 weeks before
my period was due. Although he did not
come inme, I missed my period. My
schedule is very dependable. It usually
come betweent the 28th-the 2nd. (those
are the days it would start);between the
end or beginning of the month. My last
cycle was the 2nd of august. I havent
experienced any signs of pregnancy as of
yet; except extreeme fatigueness.
Yesterday I started experiencing lower
back pain on the left (only when I walk).
I have gained a little weight(maybe 3-5
lbs). I have taken 2 home pregnancy
tests. They both came up negative. I
asked my mom why they would come up
negative and she told me that I had taken
them at the wrong time. She told me that
I needed to take them in the morning when
my hgc levels are peaking and the most
potent. I havent taken another one. I
told my boyfriend that I would take one on
the 5th of october when/if I hadnt started
my period. What are the chances that I
could be pregnant??? Please respond with
some advicec or suggestions.

There is a definite possibility that you
are pregnant honey. Is there any you
could go to a doctor to get a blood test.
Sometimes your levels are not high enough
for a home test to catch, however a blood
test will tell you right away. However on
the other hand if you stressing about it,
sometimes that can cause your period to be
late too. I once didnt have a period for
3 months and one day it just re-appeared.
Go to your doctor to be sure and let us
know how it goes!
Good luck!

Ive heard that stressing it will/can delay
your period. That is one thing that im
not doing. I actually dont think about
it. I dont think about it to make the day
go by faster. If the day goes by faster
then maybe tomorrow or the next day my
period will come! Lol. Usually, when my
period is due to come I will have
distinctive cramps. Lately I have been
having very short cramps.But 5 minutes
later ill have a bowel movement.
actually, ive been having a lot of bowel
movements. Usually I might go once a day,
now im going 2 or 3 times a day. Usually,
when I suck my stomach in (to not look
fat) im comfortable. Lately it starts to
hurt and I have to relieve my belly and
let it hang.(which is totally
embarrassing!! my
breasts arent sore but my nipples are
starting to hurt. Are these signs?

I dont think the bowel movements are signs
but the nipples hurting and cramps are
signs. However they could also be signs
of your period coming. It would be odd
for after all this time, that your levels
not be enough to show on a home test but
you never know. Have you taken any
recently?
I started missing my period when I was
about 20 years old I started getting it
like once every six months then not even
once a year...I thought nothing of it and
never got checked out....Well needless to
say I just had brain surgery a month ago
to remove a tumor from my pituitary
gland...It was the cause of my irregular
periods weight gain, loss of vision, and a
huge increase in hair growth in not so
good places...So i'm not trying to tell
you that you have a brian tumor like me
but maybe mention it to yur doc!! Ya
never know, and i'm sure you would like to
catch it early...Good luck!

Usually when I start my period, there are
no signs except for distinctive lower
abdomen cramiping. So far, I have had no
sign of them. I have tried to take home
pregnancy tests and was informed that I
had not taken them at the correct times.
I was told that I should take them in the
morning, whem my hgc levels are the most
potent. I took one after drinking a lot
of water to make myself urine. I read up
on it and that dilutes the hgc levels.
Then maybe 3hours later I took another
one. It also came up negative. What am I
doing wrong? Like I said, my period is
usually very dependable. I went to the
doctor a year ago to get examined for any
type of tumors or cysts. They came back
negative. So that is of no concern. I
told everyone that I was going to wait
until the 5th of october to go to the
doctor for a blood/urine test to determine
if I am pregnant. It has been
approximately 45 days since my last
period. I dont want to start thinking I
am happy and start picking out
names,because the tests might come back
negative. I asked my mom what her
symptoms were when she was pregnant for me
and she told me that she had no clue that
she was pregnant uuntil about the middle
of the second month. She said she had no
symptoms at all. Should I wait or should
I not waste time?!?!

Take another test to be sure. Then keep
taking them in the morning until oct 5.
(my birthday!!!!) and the next day, go to
the doctor for a blood test. You are
late, so you might be. But your period
just might be fooling with you and it can
come next week. Good luck. Keep taking
those tests!

Thanks for your advice. I dont think
about it everyday so that the days go by
faster. I tell myself that it will
come..But after these many days...Im
beginning to think that it wont. My
boyfriend has come to the conclusion that
I am pregnant. He knows how regular my
period is. If my period was ever late..He
would "knock" it out of me.
the latest it has been is 2 days. Never 3
weeks!!! So far there are no symptoms
except for extreem fatigue. Should I be
feeling the symptoms yet?????

Not many women have symptoms. I have
heard that before "knock it out or you"
what is that???? Im sure it doesnt work
either way. Nothing can force your period
to come. Periods will always be late once
in a while. Not always on time. Cant
count on that. Just take the test
tomorrow morning. Let us know.
actually, ive been having a lot of bowel
movements. Usually I might go once a day,
now im going 2 or 3 times a day. Usually,
when I suck my stomach in (to not look
fat) im comfortable. Lately it starts to
