Curious how late is late missed period and what does missed period look like? Because I normally have 28 cycle of period. And now its 2 days late... nothing come out of me... I took HPT today and came out negative. I was thinking maybe tomorrow will be my 3rd day of missed period and will take HPT in the morning when I wake up. Or should I wait? I'm too impatient to know what's going on. Help will be greatly appericate. Thanks.

I would wait a couple days, then take another HPT as soon as you wake up, say in 2 or 3 days if it does not come. It is late if it's not come by the time it's supposed to, but just hang tight, and don't stress, that can make it later if you are just late this month.

Its not uncommon to be late, or even completely miss a cycle now and then. I was once two months late for no reason. Wait until you are one week late, then take a test. I suggest this because if you conceived late in your cycle, you typically won't have added up enough hcg to register on an hpt, and would possibly end up with a false negative test result. If the test is negative after being late for one week, wait until your next expected period. If its still negative, but you don't get a period, its time to see your doctor.

Hey, I'm back, turn out that Im not pregnant. :( just got my period this early morning. But its strange to have my period that late! Maybe I'm mode of stress whether I don't feel that I am or the medication affect it. We will try again next month. Its our 4th month of trying. Its hard :(. But Thanks for all of your advice!

Well, 4 months isn't an incredibly long time when it comes to trying to conceive. Though I KNOW it FEELS like it is. It takes most healthy couples around 12 months to conceive on their own before needing to seek medical help. And that's if they don't have because to get out of their system. Getting the because out of your system, it could take longer(if you were on because before, and depending on what you were on.) or you could get pregnant next month. Stress is counter productive to conceiving, so just try to relax and enjoy the ride
