So, here’s the situation: my period is four days late. Usually, I’m pretty much clockwork—if anything, it might drift by a day or two, but never more than that. However, we had a bit of a scare during my fertile window when a condom broke. We didn't even realize it happened at the time, and honestly, he didn't finish inside me, but I know how this works. Even if you think you're safe, pre-ejaculate can be a total wildcard. It's like thinking you've avoided a rainstorm just because you don't see a cloud, only to realize the humidity was already there. I really thought I was in the clear, but now I'm sitting here wondering. 🙄
I took a test on the very first day my period was late, and it came back negative. Then I waited three days and tested again today—still negative! Both times I used an Intim Plus kit.
I stopped by my doctor's office this morning, and she told me she doesn't see any signs of pregnancy just yet. All she could confirm was that ovulation occurred on my right ovary. As for the left one, I’ve still got that hematoma lingering there—it's a leftover from the inflammation following that cyst surgery I had on that side. 😢
I went in to get my blood drawn earlier today, and I should have my beta hCG results back by this evening. Just curious—what kind of level would that hormone need to be at for me to definitely not be pregnant? 🤷
I’m not experiencing any actual symptoms. My breasts were tender for a bit, but that’s passed now—they only hurt if I touch them directly, and there hasn't been any noticeable swelling. As far as I can tell, I don't have any signs of pregnancy at all.
I’m really hoping my delay is just a byproduct of the sheer amount of stress I've been dealing with this month—not to mention how much my schedule has been absolutely crushing me lately.
Listen, if I'm pregnant, my OB-GYN should definitely be spotting some changes on an ultrasound, right? It’s been four weeks and two days since my last period started. 😢
The doctor would see it, and they'd show you the test... honestly, I find it hard to believe this is a pregnancy🤷
Your beta levels shouldn't be over 5; if it's above five, then you're pregnant..
