    When are you taking the tests? When as in what time of day? At only 12 days you are pushing it for early testing and might be getting a false negative...

    OK.. needed to make sure you knew when to take them... many women apparently never bother to read the labels (seriously... hang out on this site and you will see what I mean).

    I would take one a week for the next couple weeks assuming your period doesn't come before then... by the fourth week those tests are very accurate. Its always possible you aren't pregnant and something else is causing the delay to your period. Then I would suggest making an appointment with your Gynecologist by week 5. Actually.. either way it might be a good idea (unless your period comes before then). Only for different reasons.

    Worrying about being pregnant is a stress that can and will delay your period... to a point. Getting impatient is a stress that can do it too.

    At two weeks.. I've seen false alarms... just on stress alone... You will have your answers in the next two weeks one way or the other I believe.

    I understand what you are saying... but two more weeks isn't much time. You could go to your Gynecologist and have them do a blood test and maybe find out a little sooner.

    I have been to the doctors because I was panicing to beging with and they said give ti till Monday do another test then go from there so I guess I'll have to do that but I think I'll wait another week to do one just to make sure

    Like I said.. because you can't know your exact conception date... (seriously, its not possible unless you have invitro fertilization) you base the wait period from the first day you are late... and these tests are as accurate as they get at the 4 week point. Beyond that there is no advantage to waiting much longer.
