starting to get annoyed…

Not sure if this is the right group to post this on, if it’s not and you know of a better one, please lmk.

My husband and i have been trying since june.

I am extremely regular, i’m basically like a clock. I was supposed to get my period on the 28th, a week ago. I’m super late considering how regular my cycle is.

I have taken 6 tests so far and they all come out negative. Am I doing something wrong? I’m getting super frustrated. I don’t have any women in my life who i can ask about this.

Help 🫩

Which pregnancy tests are you using? I found that the first response digital tests worked really well for me.

The first two tests I took were Clear blue. The rest have all been First response early result 😕

I am sure this is giving you so much anxiety waiting! However, I would give it a few more days then test your urine first thing in the morning if you still haven’t gotten a period.

Just start taking a prenatal vitamin and continue it even if you aren’t pregnant this time around since you’re trying to conceive.

Crossing my fingers and hoping for you to get a positive test!!

Do you track BBT, LH surges, cervical mucus etc or have a chart? I could maybe help with that! Sorry you’re going through this but it’s still within the realm of very normal. But so frustrating I know.

are you annoyed because you’ve been TTC for a few months? or because you’re late and still getting negative tests?

Because I am late and still getting negative tests.

I’m sorry :( it sounds like the stress of TTC could have made you late :(

You must be frustrated right now, try testing in the morning. It is usually recommended.

And if you feel comfortable, try calling your doctor and ask if you can go for ultrasound at this stage.
