    9 days late/ negative tests. Low Hcg levels after 3 very high levels?
    I'm 9 days late. Took many test and all negative ( including todays).
    I feel pregnant and I have never missed a period EVER unless I was pregnant.
    What could cause a missed period rather then stress?
    I just want to know.. My dr is on vacation until the 12th so I don't even get a blood test done. It makes no sense to me after having 3 babies and my levels being so high that being this late it hasn't showed up? I am worried. Maybe I will miscarry ( if I am)..

    You are supposed to wait until you are 14 days late to take your first test... its likely you were just testing too soon.

    Or maybe you aren't pregnant. Too soon to know for sure.

    I will test again in 14 days. If I am pregnant, its nothing like the last 3 pregnancies were I tested after 2 days of missed period and got a positive. My levels were very high with my 3 children.

    You don't have to wait 14 more days... only until you are 14 days late... so in 5 more days test again. First thing in the AM... the first time you pee.

    Tests taken too early can often give false negatives. False positives are rare. So it is possible you are... but also possible you aren't.

    Sometimes you can get a positive sooner... and when you do you can rely on it. Just that early on a negative might not be really be negative... as they rely on testing for a hormone that sometimes is still too low a level to detect early on.

    Yes... those HPT's are quite accurate if taken correctly.. and late enough.

    If your period still hasn't come by then, and you still test negative... perhaps it would be a good idea to see your gynecologist just in case...

    As I said, wait for answers on your thread. Because you wrote in chat/text, it was skipped over. This is not a live chat site. People come and go. Be patient.
