Wow, that is crazy! It's so strange how pregnancy changes during each child. I'm counting my days as well, but no luck with testing. It does put my mind at ease to know what bnt0330 said. I went to dollar tree tonight and bought two more tests. I still have a clearblue digital test as well. I'm all stocked up hoping to see a positive result in the end. I'm almost 22 years old with no kids yet. Just hoping for a little miracle. It's crazy how some people end up pregnant and don't want to be, where as people like us want one so badly and just can't get their. How ironic, right?

I was suppose to start my period Friday, March 19. I tested again this morning and another negative. I'll test again a week from today if i don't have my period yet. The past 2 nights before i go to bed i get cramping in my lower back and my legs feel achy. My boobs don't hurt really anymore, not like last week! But i did notice that i got a few very thin purple veins that appeared on my left breast. I just felt super nausea a few minutes ago, but now i am fine. I guess we shall see in about a week. Keep me posted gina and let me know what your results say Friday ( or thurs lol). Good luck!!!

I know what your going through I've been ttc for a couple months now but I have not so I want to tell you a story of inspiration I heard yesterday. I ment a women yesterday who was 8mons she had told me that this was a true miracle baby. Her and her husband have been tryin for 8yrs she only has one fillopian tube so they saved up money for in-vitro and finally after that they got pregnant and they had their daughter who is now 13mons. Then months later she began to feel different and took a pregnancy test surprisingly she was pregnant again all on her own no medicine nothing it was a true miracle. We will all get pregnant when our body wants us to. Just dnt get depressed bc that will hurt your fertility. Just have fun and be passionate with your partners it will happen. Stay healthy and happy

If you are that late for your period that you should take a test asap with 1st morning urine and go from there.

Best of Luck.

I hope you get a positive!! Last time i tested was Monday and it was a no. I still have absolutely no symptoms of my period other than a couple of days ago where i was cramping a little in my lower back and my legs were achy.

I do have a question though. Can anyone tell me if you still ovulate when you are pregnant? I would think you wouldn't, but i don't know for sure.

Gina make sure you update about your results!! I got my fingers crossed of us!!

Honestly, in my own opinion i don't think it's the brand you buy. It's not going to change your hcg levels. If they aren't high enough yet then you will keep getting the negative. I just keep telling myself that it hasn't produced enough to show yet and you should too. We also don't want to face the fact that it really could be a negative, but if it is we can't do anything about it. I'm totally in your boat and have my fingers and everything else crossed, hoping and prayer to get that positive, but all we really can do is wait every 4-6 days to test unless our monthly visitor comes. Just try not to stress it babe. I'm definitely here if you need to vent because there is just some days where i need to!! I just can't put two and two together and make sense of why i am getting a negative when i did everything i possibly could. Hang in their. Time will tell. Just be patient with your body
