12 days overdue and still no positive test

No, I haven't experienced that. The time I was overdue, I was actually pregnant. Being overdue doesn't mean you're pregnant right away; it's just the first thing you think of, and rightly so, especially if your pregnancy test is negative. Of course, your hCG hormone levels can be low. I've heard that some pregnancy tests don't work for certain people, but it could also be stress, hormonal fluctuations, being underweight or overweight, medication use, etc. I'd suggest testing again on Friday and possibly requesting a blood test. Good luck!

    Are you sure you're overdue?
    Who knows, your ovulation might have been much later than usual this month.

    I don't have any stress right now, and I'm at a normal weight.
    I don't take any medication and have been off the pill for 12 years.
    But an ovulation that's a bit later could indeed be the case.
    My partner and I have been trying to conceive for the past 3 months.
    So we haven't started using ovulation tests yet.
    But I will start if I get my period.
    I have had some light cramps in my uterus over the past few days.
    Yes, I'll just wait until Friday and otherwise make an appointment with the GP.
    Thank you all for your responses

    And? Have you had a positive test yet? I hope so for you!

    And do you know anything else yet?

    No, unfortunately not.
    I did see a dark dot in the middle of the Clearblue test followed by a white line in the middle. And if I were pregnant, shouldn't that be a faint line?
    So everything is quite vague.
    I had made a mistake with the dates; I did call, and I’m allowed to come back next Friday for a blood test.
    I’ll keep you posted.
    Love

    Haha I mean a dark line instead of a dumb line.

    Sometimes it can also be a faint line when you're pregnant.

    Wow, exciting! But a line is a line, right? I had two cycles of 32 days, and on the third cycle, I was overdue. I took a test on day 34 and 38, but both were negative. A week later, I still hadn't gotten my period, so I took another test on day 43, and yes, I was pregnant! So it can take a while before it shows up on the test. I hope it's the same for you. I definitely had very sore breasts for two weeks and occasional mild nausea. Have you noticed any symptoms yet?

    I'm on day 15 now.
    Yes, I hope so Angie
    What a nice surprise Florien, yes I hope I'll get a final positive result too.
    The only symptoms I've had in the past few days are mild cramps in my lower abdomen and some white discharge.
    So just to be safe, I did a test ????.
    I'll test again on Monday.

  10. Florien #11

    Yes, that's so lovely!! It's still quite suspenseful for you, so good luck with the waiting, and I'm curious what the test will show on Monday. Cheering for you!
