Period 13 days late, BFN!?

Period 13 days late, BFN!?

My last period was October, 27 2012. I'm never this late maybe 3 or 4 the most...But this is a little much! I took a test at 5, 9 & 11 days late. All negative. I used the Dollar tree brand tests, even if I was this late SHOULDN'T it show accurately? I'm really confused. I don't use protection nor birth corntrol. I'm married and the pull out method has work for almost 6 years (I have a 5 year old)! He's not came in me whatsoever! :/ 

Can I please get someones point of view?

Are you charting?  Using OPKS?  Do you actually know when you ovulate?

Are you hoping that withdrawal is an effective birth control method? (It isn't)

Okay:

1. The pull out method is not 100% effective.  See "16 & Pregnant"

2. You may have ovulated later in your cycle than normal.  Test every few days until you get a positive or your period or you reach 60 days without either, at which point you should make an appointment with your doctor.

You probably just ovulated late. If you are not charting to confirm ovulation, there is no way to tell. If you ovulated late, then your period will come later than normal. Even if you always have a regular cycle, it can happen.

The simple answer is that you probably ovulated later than usual. If the pregnancy test is negative, it's either too early to tell, or you're not pregnant.

Cautiously excited...

Yes I'm aware that's its not a 100% but It's worked for me! I didn't use OPKS to track it, because i'm not trying to conceive. But if I was it wouldn't matter either way. Just not trying ya know  :) 

 

I usually ovulate around the 12th and 13th

And how do you know that? Just becuase you have in the past, does not mean you will each and every time. Your body does not follow a "calendar". It can and will change days.

Wait 60 days. Test weekly. If at 60 days, no AF or BFP, call your Dr.

Yes, everyone!  Oh, the humanity.

We cannot tell you if you are pregnant or not. You took a test, it told you you are not pregnant.  It is correct.  That is my point of view. 

Read the newbie link.

We don't know if you're pregnant. The hpt was negative, so that was your answer. Like we've already said, you probably ovulated later than usual. If you go 60 days without a positive hpt or your period, call your doctor.

If you used reliable birth control, you wouldn't be taunted because there would be no doubt as to whether you were or weren't pregnant.

See I would use birth control but there are just way to many side effects. My last birth control was Mirena and that was nothing but issues with me. All I am saying is that the pull out method has worked for us, granted that I'm aware that its not 100% preventable It was a statement.

Apparently I'm very offended easily today, I'm sorry..I didn't mean to be a B$#@. I am sure you've been where I am at at least once in your life, to where you don't know what's going on with your body..It's very frustrating

Have you heard of condoms? Or even diaphragms?  There are non-hormonal methods out there. If you don't want to get pregnant, or flip out when you think your period is late, pick one and use it. Not rude, just truth.

The pullout method works 100% of the time until it fails. I don't really care which method you use either way, but the only 100% reliable form of birth control is complete abstinence.  

But you're getting BFN's, so you just O'de late if you've O'de at all. It happens.  And since you've already said you're cycles can on occasion be 5-6 days late, then you just aren't as regular a you think you are.

Test once a week until you hit 60 days, and if you're still getting BFN's call your doctor to just start your cycle.

I have noticed the same thing. I am newer to this site. I thought it was supposed to be supportive but so far the majority are not. Sorry for your frustration I am going through something similar.... 9 days late and no sign of AF and four BFNs. All you can do is wait but it is still frustrating and you still need support through the wait. Good luck!

It's not that hard to figure out. If the test says negative, then OP is not pregnant. As others have said, probably ovulated late. Keep testing until a BFP, a period, or CD60.

This exact same thing comes up multiple times a week, sometimes multiple times a day, and the answer is always the same.

You could chart for natural family planning.  You would then have a better idea when to expect your period, and it wouldn't be a mystery.  No side effects of temping and tracking CM.

Yes, everyone did answer my question, but made sure to make me feel stupid & I am new, so why get annoyed cause I posted something others do all the time? How am I supposed to know what others have posted I'M NEW! 

 

I've scheduled an apt with my OBGYN tomorrow. I'll let y'all know ;)

Thanks for the reply, I am not very good at charting and what not lol. So I should really learn the way it works better :) All I know is when something like this happens I freak.

I am guessing you started as a newbie as well so no need to knock others down. If these posts annoy you so much why even read or respond? These boards are for support no matter how repetitive or common the issue is.
