Here is my story...Im ttc and have been for several months with no luck...My last period was march 29 and I should have started again april 26 (its pretty normal, give or take 2-3 days) its still not arrived. I took 2 pg test a couple of days ago (first response) and they both came up negative. I know that stress...Etc... Can cause your period to be late, im just a little confused because im not having any symptoms of pregnancy or my period...I usually get gas, a bump or two on my face, bloated and my boobs ache... Just one thing, I have clear discharge everyday kind of like when you ovulate...I just dont know whats going on...Im not gonna ask the same stupid question am I pregnant, however iam gonna ask everyone how long and how many pregnancy tests did everyone have to take before they found out they were pregnant???

My first one told me, but I was 10 weeks along at the time. Have you thought of getting a blood test done?

I took mine at 12 dpo and got my bfp! Keep in mind that some woen do not produce enough hcg to detect on a hpt. If you still do not get your period I would suggest going to get some bloodwork done. Good luck

Hi I got a negative response when I was pregnant with my son and didn't get a psitive til 6 weeks pregnant but first response has always been accyrate for me. Perhaps test again next week if your period has not come or maybe arrange a blood test with your doctor.These are always more accurate.
Good luck!

No, I have not thought about getting a blood test done, I just hate testing because it seems like everytime I test and get a negative result my period starts the next day :cry: I just hate getting my hopes up..Thanks guys for the responses

lalee -- you said that you tested when you were 10 weeks pregnant did you have any pregnany symptoms up until that point???

Not really... Except missed periods, which didn't trigger much of a response from me because i've skipped months before. However, I haven't had any morning sickness at all, so that's part of it.

I used first response and got a positive 3 days before my period was due. It was faint but it was there. I got a line that couldn't have been any darker 4 days after my period was due.

I got a positive 4 days before mine was due - then again everyone is different.
