18 Days late and 8!! Negative pregnancy tests, 6 weeks since last period - has anyone else had this and still been pregnant?

Hi,

Reassurance needed. This not exactly as planned. After a conversation with a friend who had fertility problems she said I should stop the pill ASAP to let my body settle if I was planning TTC in the new year.

I checked my cycle and my phone said my ovulation had passed and so rather than wait until the end of the package and as I was having very mild spotting I ditched the pack even though I’d only had sex the day previous. Cut to the chase and that was nearly 4 weeks ago and my period is now 18 days late! Is it possible that we have been super unintentionally fortunate?

Anyway, 8 tests later and I’m still showing negative so I’m booked in to GP next week as that’s when my next period is due and if it doesn’t arrive that will be the second missed period!

Anyone else had loads of negative results but we’re pregnant?

Could be! Although, when I came off the pill I didn’t get a period for 3 months, until my body sorted itself out. Hopefully for you it’s not that and it’s a lucky baby!

I always had periods on the mini pill and pretty regular and when I’ve stopped it before I’ve always had a period within a week. Called the GP and I have a blood test booked for next week as it will be my second missed period (I’m working away before then so can’t go sooner). Fingers crossed

Your cycle can be really long if you haven't ovulated that month. Have you worked out the date of the start of your last period? A preg test should show up within a few days of a missed period. Do you know when or if you ovulated this month?

I would highly doubt you are pregnant because it would be showing up, but stranger things have happened and the best way and only way to know for certain is through a blood test.

Also do you track your periods/ovulation etc? Theres lots of apps available to do it nowadays, I would also get some ovulation sticks. Good luck xx

I track my cycle on my fitness tracker and my last period was 10th October with ovulation 14-18 days later. My last pill was 27th October and also unprotected sex same day and I had spotting on 28th and 29th but nothing since. My next period was due 6th November and my next period is due in a weeks time and still no sign of AF. It wasn’t planned like this as I thought I had passed fertile zone but if I ovulated late or when the pill stopped might be possible but the negative results make me doubt it but starting to feel different so blood test booked after a chat with GP on phone (can’t be done sooner as working away). I’m starting to hope it’s positive now but still time for my period to arrive before then. My friend didn’t find out she was pregnant with twins until 3 months as her HPT were all negative weirdly enough and she took 4 over those 3 months with the 5th showing positive xx
