4 days late, I've taken the test 4 times, all negative. My breasts hurt a bit like before my period and then stopped, but they're still enlarged. No nausea or anything like that, the only unexplained thing is a runny nose—not congested, just flowing, don't laugh, I read here about some kind of pregnancy rhinitis. Anyway, with my husband, if you can call it contraception, we've been using withdrawal, and I haven't gotten pregnant in five years, but now I don't know, I'm confused. I'm thinking, if I'm not pregnant, why the delay? Before, it could be late at most 2 days...nothing bothers or hurts in the gynecology department...So I'm thinking, I'll wait another 3 days, that is, it'll be a week late, and then I'll go get a blood test for HCG...My mood, girls, is so happy, even though I know it's too early to rejoice...and I have to somehow finish my last year of university...work is also on the rise, and somehow I'm juggling everything, I want a baby...the uncertainty just scares me...maybe I'm overthinking it...And if I'm not pregnant, what could cause the delay...is it a serious issue?
My test didn't show anything for the first two weeks. And a delay can basically be due to anything :) but if you used protection (even if it was withdrawal), then most likely there's no pregnancy.

The delay could be a week or more due to stress, overwork, or poor nutrition.

Suzu, I understand, but if my period doesn't come at all and there's no pregnancy, that's not normal, right??

Author, I had the exact same thing happen to me this month as you did—just a week's delay, and the tests were negative. I had already gotten my hopes up for a baby, and then my period started. :) So, don't get too excited just yet; wait a little longer. It could be due to stress, a change in climate, etc. Good luck! :)

Victoria, well, yeah, I want to wait a week, you know. I just have this feeling that I'm definitely pregnant, maybe I'm overthinking it, but I've even become kind of irritable lately...

Wait a few more days... I only got a very faint second line on the eighth day, and before that, nothing at all =)))
Perhaps it's an issue with the ovaries (I had that experience). Go for an ultrasound with a gynecologist to rule out any health problems and avoid letting them worsen. If everything is fine—get a blood test.
Good luck to you! :)

Nerves can be a factor, the work is tough... who knows what else. But for nausea and pregnancy rhinitis, it seems a bit early.

I'm in a similar situation, my period is a week late, and the test shows a very faint, barely noticeable line. Could this be a test error, or is it actually pregnancy?

I also have a 4-day delay, which has never happened before—everything was always like clockwork. My husband and I use condoms for protection, and the test came back negative, but I still have hope. Four months ago, I had a miscarriage, and the doctor advised me not to get pregnant for 6 months. But still, what if there’s a miracle!

It's already been 5 days late, and no signs at all... My stomach does ache sometimes like before my period, but still nothing! I'm even afraid to get too excited, in case I jinx it!! I think I'll wait a couple more days and take another test..

Author, well, first of all, if you've been relying solely on the withdrawal method for years and nothing else, there's a high likelihood that either you or your husband have some issues; otherwise, you would have "slipped up" and gotten pregnant long ago. The withdrawal method is an extremely ineffective form of contraception, akin to hoping for the best—it's more suited for casual encounters than for married couples. A four-day delay isn't necessarily a disruption; even healthy women can experience such fluctuations (due to stress, climate changes, etc.), and sometimes there can be a ten-day delay before everything starts... You definitely need to see a doctor, and together with your husband, especially if you want a child. Get checked out; it really is strange that you haven't gotten pregnant in five years, practically without protection.

Girls, I'm in the exact same situation. It's only a 2-day delay, but my mind is racing with possibilities. The test came back negative. But we were trying this month, everything according to the theory: temperature, ovulation, etc.
I'll keep hoping.

Lykos, can it really be that a pregnancy test doesn't show a positive result right away??? I'm 6 days late, it's been 19 days since conception, the test is negative, but the symptoms are just so specific, I've never had anything like this... I feel nauseous, my breasts are tender, and I'm craving ice cream—I've never eaten it in my life!!!!! And most importantly, my mood is just awful, constantly on edge, always on the verge of tears... And I'm usually very calm, so this nervousness is really surprising me... Girls, please wish me luck, I really want a baby!!!!!!!

My husband and I didn’t use protection, my pulse is calm, and I sometimes feel nauseous but rarely. Could this be pregnancy? Could the test have missed it? Please advise?????

I have a 3-day delay, took two tests—both negative. Since I really want to get pregnant, I went for an ultrasound. During the transvaginal exam, two functional cysts were visible—which, as the doctor explained, are the reason for the delay. Just what I needed, these cysts... not! But the doctor did clarify that these are temporary cysts and they should go away after my period, so I'll wait. So, girls, if you have a delay and the test doesn't show pregnancy—go get an ultrasound.

If only it were that easy to get an ultrasound in my city...((
In our little town, there aren't many options either. For example, they don't even do blood tests for HCG here. At least a couple of private ultrasound clinics have opened up. I only found a competent gynecologist in Novosibirsk, so I travel 300 km to see her. Though, in hopes of getting pregnant, I'd go to the ends of the earth)))

Help me understand my problem! I have a 7-day delay, and the tests are negative. A couple of days after ovulation, my stomach hurt very badly, like before my period but worse. Four days before my expected period, my breasts started hurting as usual, but my period never came. Now my breasts have stopped hurting, and it feels like I had my period.

Early signs of pregnancy (as I experienced): breast swelling (like before menstruation, only more intense), discomfort during sex, abdominal pain similar to but stronger than premenstrual cramps, a one-week delay, and of course a state of nervous tension. The test showed nothing, but the gynecologist confirmed pregnancy.
