Hello. My period is now 11 days late. I took an at home test on Sunday (8 days late) and Monday (9 days late) and they both came back negative. Is it too soon to test? I experienced mild cramping the day before my period was to start and have had mild cramping and lower back pain for two days, but no other pregnancy symptoms. I am 32 years old and in good health.

You have to wait 4 weeks after implantation to get reliable negative test results. So yes its likely you did it too soon... wait another few weeks and try again.

I'm waiting to hear back from my Family Dr, but she is not the best at getting in touch with you. I am new to town and have yet to find an OBGYN. My concern is that I took antibiotics last week, and I take daily medication. My husband and I had sex on 11/3 (same day as my predicted ovulation day) and we used the withdraw method. I am not on birth control, but we used condoms. I can't stand this waiting phase!

We have a name for people that use the Withdrawl method... we call them parents.

You don't have much of a choice but wait... its still too early for even a Dr. Administered test to give accurate results.
