Help with pregnancy test

So I took a test as I’m 3 days late and got a negative. I’ve gone back later and found this, had it just been too long and won’t give my a definitive answer? I have been on a pill without a period for some time so not sure on my cycle and if I’m even late but really wanted a positive test

If you suspect you’re pregnant do you test…

**this is for you personally - not what the box says** This may sound really silly to say - but I’m optimistic that I’m pregnant right now. I had a pregnancy loss in May so I’m hesitant to test and get that confirmation. My period is routine clockwork 27 days and I’m currently on day 29. I’m tempted to wait until ...

Family looking after your child

I’ve always avoided it when and where I can and the only time it has happened has been if I’ve had an appointment where I’m unable to take him with me. I don’t know if this is purely because I don’t trust family for different rea...

SO IMPATIENT

I’m only 3/4 dpo and due on the 20th, but I literally have no idea how I’m going to make it through this next week!!! I’m already obsessing. I’ve known pretty much immediately with my past pregnancies, and I feel the same now. I’m just feeling different. I’m having vivid dreams and restless sleep, hot flashes esp in...

Baby no. 3 - too crazy?

My partner and I have extremely busy/high level jobs (and no family around where we live).

We have 1 son (newborn) and 1 daughter (2.5 y/o). I am 35yo a...

Pregnancy test

Hey mommas. I found out last Friday that I’m pregnant with my second child, I’ve been stuck in my head ever since and the amount of pregnancy test I’ve taken is probably insane. According to the app I’ve tracked my periods on I’m only 6 weeks and I took an equate brand test today and the lines weren’t as bold as whe...
