hi all

I have been with my partner for a year now, we love each other very much. i usually get my period on time and i am never late. i get my period every 3 weeks (its always been like that since i started when i was younger). 3 days before i was even due on my period i took a preg test and it came out negative (i think it came out negative because your not meant to take it until the day you miss your period) however im now 4-5 days late on my period, i have never been late in my life... i have had unprotected sex with my partner these past few months and i aint on any conterception. i have not felt ill, just had swallon boobs which feel sensitive, slightly moody, am more tired than usual...do you think i should test again and if yes when is the best time to do it as im 4-5 days late so would it be okay to test soon? and when is the best time to do it? any advice would be helpful.

Do it now! You know your body, so trust yourself.

I just felt like something was off so I took a test before my period was supposed to come and sure enough it read yes (2 more also read yes)! I went to a doctor who seemed very unprofessional and told me I wasn't pregnant. 6 weeks later I still felt off, even though I had an extremely light 2 day period, so I took another test. The test read yes so I went to a new doctor who confirmed the pregnancy. I had been pregnant the whole time!

The point is that tests (and doctors) can be wrong, and you need to listen to your body. Take another test, then see a doctor too!

TimmD agony auntDefinitely take another test. While this doesn't mean you are pregnant, the only way to find out is to take another test. If this one comes back negative then that's a pretty good sign that you're not.
