    Missed period and 3 negative pregnancy test results
    My baby was stillborn 3 and a half months ago and me and my partner started trying for another baby immediately. The first 2months April and May I had regular periods, I was due on my period on 28th June but have had no signs etc that I am about to come on my period.
    I have tested 3 times with 2 of the pound tests (both negative) and one with the early detection that detects before the period (first Response) again this was negative. I have been sad one day during June and apart from that I have been feeling my normal usual self. I really want a baby and would like some help please.

    Please can someone help me!?

    So sorry to hear about your baby. There is a possibility you are pregnant but the tests just haven't picked it up yet. For some women it can take several weeks. Give it another week and see if your period is late, or try another test at that time if it doesn't show. Fingers crossed!

    Thanks very much for the advice

    If the test say you are not pregnant, then you are not pregnant. Chances of even an at home test being wrong are like one in 100,000. I studied medicine and have been through the "Holy %$#@!, are we pregnant?" worries before, several times. There are medical disorders that easily explain your symptoms but don't get worried that something's wrong. Women skip periods; it just happens. The tests are, I'm sure, out of precaution. A couple missed diagnoses are enough to ruin a gynecologist. So he's going to cover his butt. Don't worry, when your period comes though it will be a big one.
