Negative Blood (Serum) Test

in Trying to Get Pregnant
Hi all, so I got a BFN with my serum blood test today. I am a bit disappointed because I seriously FEEL pregnant. I don't know how to explain it. My last period was May 9th and I was due for another June 13th, and when it didn't show I was a bit concerned because I'm always on time. SO, I'm two weeks late now. Is there anyone who has ever been pregnant and gotten a negative blood test? I feel like it could still be early, my hcg levels are too low? Any advice would be nice :)

    Negative test = not pregnant. You likely ovulated later than usual which makes your period late. Just because you usually have your period at the same time, that doesn't mean that you cant have an off month. Wait 60 days for AF and if no show by then, go to your doctor.



    Me: 32 DH: 31.
    B/W: good. SA: good.
    November 2012: Paratubal cyst found during U/S.
    January 10, 2013: Lap removed paratubal cyst and Stage 2 Endometriosis. 
    3 cycles of Femara + TI = BFNs

    June 2013: Femara 2.5 mg, Gonal F Injects 37.5 IU, Menopur, trigger + IUI = BFN

    July 2013: Femara 2.5 mg, Gonal F Injects 75 IU, Menopur, trigger + IUI = BFP!!!!

    Beta 1 @ 11 DPIUI = 76. Progesterone = 27.3

    BFP 8/16/2013 // EDD 4/28/2014

    You went to the Dr for a blood test??  Did you even test with an HPT first?

    First off, you probably just ovulated late and therefore your period is late.  Did you take a HPT?  As for the bolded part..that is very unlikely, when I had my m/c they followed my levels down all the way to <1....if they did a quantative hcg, they should be able to pick up ANY level of hormone detected..in your case..zero.  This means your not pregnant..sorry.

    In case you haven't already, I would pick up a copy of Taking Charge of Your Fertility and start charting! That way you can be more sure of when you ovulated instead of being in the dark.

    This was my question too! 

    Just because your "always on time" doesnt mean your periods will always be on time. Like some PP said you may have just ovulated late and therefore its postponing your period. But the best advice I can give you, is to never assume your cycles are regular--because chances are they are NOT going to be regular every single month. Also, as far as you FEELING pregnant, you probably just have yourself convinced your pregnant and now you are experiencing phantom symptoms, or its just AF fixing to show. You can test once a week with a HPT until its positive or you have reached CD 60. If you reach CD 60 THEN you contact your doctor.

    But once again, did you even take a HPT before going to the doctor for a blood test???
