To Jackie........ I am now 24 DAYS LATE...still no show...Did a couple of HPT again this week (so far, took a total of 7 HPT, 1 dr's urine...all were neg...)...Went to the E.R. on Friday, had blood test again (total of 2 blood tests, all negative)....At least this doctor was friendly and helpfull....I am having an ULTRASOUND done this coming week (hopefully I'll get an answer this week)...the suspense is killing me, but I changed my way of thinking in order to keep my thoughts busy...if i'm pgnt, it'll eventually show.....Still having more symptoms (nauseous without vomiting, ALOT of tingling & burning feelings in my lower abdominal area, very sore nipples, extrememly fatigued, headaches-which i never use to have, white creamy discharge....etc) So, I really don't know what's going on....Hopefully I'll get some answers this week...Please, let me know what's going on with you and I will let you know also....Good Luck to us all :)

Monique...thank you so much for your answer. I am going crazy. I want to be pregnant so bad that I think its in my head. I am peeing alot, but the cramping is like a period, So I guess its a mix of confusion and worry. I'm not sure if I should go to the doctors yet because I might be jumping the gun..

Jackie...I know it's frustrating, and trust me, I have a lot of patience (thank God). I would advise you to retest 3 days after your last HPT. If it's still negative, maybe you should go see your doctor and ask for a blood test (which in my case was useless since it came out negative twice, and still no period). But, you never know, maybe your HCG levels are higher than mine. ALWAYS go with your gut feeling about anything, especially this!!! Me, I feel prgnt even though this would be my first prgncy. I know my body soooo well, and these changes I've been having are really strange and different. I'm still not putting my hopes up, just in case i wouldn't be (something i've learned the hard way, from the past-not to put my hopes up for anything until it's confirmed). So, the only thing I can do right now is wait. I will be taking another HPT tomorrow morning, just to say.....It'll most likely be negative, but you never know I guess.....The hospital is suppose to call me this week to make an appointment for my ULTRASOUND....Hopefully then, I'll get some answers......Keep in touch and Good luck :)

Good luck to all you ladies and I will hope for the best for all of us keep is touch.

Monique, Jackie, Heidi, and Jordan-- I am also going through this with you guys! Some mornings (like this morning) I just start to wonder if I'm crazy. Its entirely possible this is all just stress for me (i am in the middle of law school exams). BUT, i'm married and i'm not on BC, we just use raincoats---BUT we use non-latex raincoats because I'm allergic to latex. And the box of the condoms says ONLY use these if you're alllergic to latex because we're not sure how well they work (thats what it says in a nutshell.) Anyway, I'm day 50 of my cycle, i'm exhausted, naseaus, i get cramps in the morning and in the afternoons, im starving constantly, i've had heartburn, a bloody nose, i pee ALL the time, i burp all the time, i'm SO ga__sy, and, mostly, I just feel different. My body feels different. Maybe its all in my head? But it feels different. I've taken like 5 hpts and all have come back negative as well as a qualitative blood test which came back negative. So, I didn't have a period in April, and my period in March was 5 days late and I wonder if it was implantation bleeding because it wasn't at all a normal period . . . . and it would make more sense because my husband and I had a "close call" in February . . . .is it possible that I'm 12 weeks along and not showing hcg in tests??? or I guess the other possibility would be that I'm like only 3 weeks along??..is that math right?...oh well. . . . . I guess we'll all either start showing or finally get a positive test or finally get a period . . . . until then I guess I should go buy a prenatal vitamin just in case . . . .

To Scarlett Jane....We're all in the same boat....It's kinda unbelievable how this is happening to soooo many women out there. I just took another HPT (Clearblue + - ), and again it was a very faint positive...this is the only brand, out of all the others that i've tried, that is faintly positive....I won't take another this week since it drives me nuts way too much...I will wait for my ultrasound...don't know what day of this week it's gonna be yet....If we're all pregnant, I will definitly be calling those HPT companies to complain about their "so called accurate" tests...hehe. If not, why is this happening if everything in our lives is as usual....no extra stress, etc......I just don't get it....Anyways, Let's keep our fingers crossed....I strongly believe that everything happens for a reason....so I have FAITH that we will all get our answers soon :)

Monique, last week I called EPT and asked them what a very faint positive line would indicate and they said if any line no matter how faint shows up before the 10 minute cutoff then its a 99% chance you are preggers...not that I necessarily believe what the hpt companies tell me now anyway, but I thought I would let you know...did you take the test first thing in the morning or later in the day? I think I am going to go out and buy the clear blue test and try it out...its one of the few I havent tried yet...man I should buy stock in these companies

Heidi....Hi, I had also called clearblue to get info on that faint positive that I keep getting, and they told me the same, of course....They have to say that...hehe. But they won't mention anything about defects in the tests of course....I always take my HPT in the morning so my urine is the most concentrated it can be.....All of the other tests i have taken come up negative, no faint lines..Clearblue (+ -), NOT the digital, always comes up with a faint vertical line (+)....So, we'll see....gotto go to work in 1/2hr....talk to you when I get Back.....bye for now :)

Thank you all so much for your support. LIke yo7u said I can't believe so many people are going through the same thing. i talked to my doctor today and since I was only 9 days late he said to just hang in there. But yeah easier said than done! I don't think I'm preggo, just because when prego with my daughter it showed up right away, and plus its easier to think negative than is is positive (don't want to get my hopes too high) The doc also told me to watch out for abdominal pain and back pain, those are both signs of a tube pregnancy and if its that you won't get your period but it won't show on a home test. Hopefully I will get my period soon, and than my husband and I can get back to tring. PLEASE keep in touch hearing everyones stories keep me in check that I'm not alone. TTFN....
