Can't find an answer to this one...

Ok, so if you read any of my earlier posts, I'm still suspecting that I'm pregnant. My nose has now bled three times and my boobs continue to ache. Here's my question. My period is long - 34 days. Based on my temperatures, I ovulated on day 18 and then have a 16 day luteal phase. That would mean that my period is not due until the 15th of February. I understand that the majority of women have 14 day luteal phases, so when they use an early response pregnancy test, that claims that it can detect up to four days before AF, are they basing that on the fact that they assume most women are 10 dpo? I mean, which rules apply? If they go strictly on when your period is due, that would mean that I would have a low chance of getting a positive today, being that it would be four days before my period. BUT, I would also be considered 12 dpo - which would translate into "two days before my period" if my luteal phase were only 14 days. I'm discouraged because I got a negative this morning and am just sure that I'm pregnant. Sorry this is so long! Thanks in advance guys!

If you have a longer luteal phase you have to wait a bit longer to test. Don't get discouraged yet, some women have very low HCG in early pregnancy and take longer to show up, wait a few more days and retest, and be sure it's the first morning urine. I had VERY faint almost invisible positives with both my pregnancies, when I went in to get it confirmed they retested my urine which both pregnancies showed negative...but the bloodwork both came back positive. I'm now 12 weeks pregnant. Goodluck!

Re: Can't find an answer to this one...

when I got PG I "O"ed on a day 22 but according to doctors did not have implantation until day 26, so when I took a test on what I thought would have been 14 dpo I should have gotten a positive test but I got a negative so I waited 2 days and took another one and that came up with BFP. so don't be discouraged wait a couple of more days and take another test.

Good luck
