I am so scared and nervous

southernmom · #1 December 5th, 2008, 05:57 AM

Hello ladies,
I posted a few days ago about when I could take a pregnanncy test, well I did and it was a BFN. I was due for AF on Dec 4 and took the test on Dec 1. I was due for my cycle yesterday and it has not come yet. I am afraid that it is all in my head and I have this paralyzing fear that will not allow me to take another test. I leave tomorrow for the weeekend with my hubby and two younger children for a fun weekend and I do not want to be preoccupied with the thought of possibly being pregnant. Is it possible that I am stressing myself out so badly over this that it is delaying my cycle. I am usually very percise as to when it will start. Please help! I guess I am still having a difficult time since we lost our last pregnancy four months ago.

I say take the test. It's better to have a clear mind. I took a test on the day that my period was due and it was negative, but I took one a couple weeks later and it was very positive. What I am saying is that the first test might have been too early. Good luck.

I say POAS! But, like I've said on this board before, I'm a testing junkie! If you think about the fact that if you ARE PG, your HCG is doubling every 2-3 days. If you had a BFN on the 1st and you've waited 4 days, your levels will have increased quite a bit. I know it's scary, but, for peace of mind, you may want to find out for the weekend.

KUP!

the only way to know is to test. it's a good sign that you're late, but you're right, stress can sometimes mess w/ your cycles. so TEST!

i didn't get a bfp til the day before af, and it was very faint.

I'm with the girls! Take a test! If it's negative, try and forget about it, because like you said...if you aren't pregnant, you could be delaying your period with the thoughts of being pregnant. Therefore stressing yourself out. Its happened to me, several cycles! Let me tell you!

Good luck hun!!!
