    CD43.and negative test
    And I have taken 4 HPTs one was even a digital and all were negative. We have been trying for our 2nd baby for over 2 years and I have never been this late. My cylces are anywere from 26-30 days.
    I have a few symptoms here and there... like sore boobs, smells and quesy. Headaches for the last 2 weeks. With my first I had no symptoms.

    I know I should go see my doc for a blood test but I'm so afirad that it's going to be another negative ugh... :eek:

    Has anyone here been this late and been pregnant?

    Even if it is a negative, you need to consult your doctor. If you are pregnant, you need to start getting prenatal care. If you aren't pregnant, you need to find out what is causing you to be so late, and have these symptoms. Some women's hcg levels aren't high enough to register on tests(sometimes even blood tests) until they are several months along. However, you could just be late, from stress, or something else. I really can't stress enough how important it is to see your doctor in situations as this. I know that you are afraid to hear the answer, however you need to find out. As much as we may want to at times, things like this just can't be ignored. And the longer we ignore them, the more dangerous it could be for our health(or your babies, if you are pregnant.) Good luck, and best wishes. Please see your doctor soon.

    My daughter had several false negative results, because her hormones were slow to build up high enough on a urine test, she didn't have a blood test, but was 4 months pregnant nbefore she finally got a positive urine test, This also happened with her second pregnancy. Both babies were healthy. So have that blood test taken and good luck. Here is some ******baby dust****** hope it works.

    Getting a blood test yourself, you are ordered a qualatative blood test, which only gives a negative or positive reading. It is more accurate then hpts, however, if your hcg levels still aren't high enough to reach the level for the test, then it will show negative. The most accurate blood test is a quantative blood test. This test must be ordered by your doctor in most cases. It is the most accurate blood test and it measures the actual number of hcg in your system. The test is usually repeated in a weeks time to check if the levels are doubling, as they would in a healthy pregnancy. You could be pregnant, and just not registering yet. However, you could be late for other reasons, and hopefully these reasons will be able to be discovered with your appointment.My friend recently was several months late, and doctors couldn't determine the reasons. She and I both knew she was pregnant, and finally she made the docs give her an ultrasound. They discovered she had an ectopic pregnancy.(could have been serious, or even fatal had they not discovered it) This doesn't happen often however.The point is, just make sure you get the answers to your questions, and don't give up until you know you have the answers. You might just need a bit of provera to jump start your cycles again. Unfortunately only your doctor can answer that for you.Glad you will be getting in soon and let us know what you find out. Good luck
