Possible to be Pregnant with negative hpt?

Fitnessteach2010

My H and I are not ttc but not avoiding either. AF is a day late and HPT was negative. Is it possible to still be pg and the hormone is not being detected yet?

No. It's possible you could have a fertilized egg that hasn't implanted yet. Are you charting? Using OPKs? Keep testing once a week until you get your period or CD 60 then call your doctor, they may give you a drug to make you get your period or they may wait until 90 days. Good luck.

I've tested 2 days late before and still had a negative hpt. You probably ovulated later than you think is normal if you aren't charting/temping and really aren't that late. I would test again in a few days or wait until next week.

It's possible if you know when you ovulated. I ovulate on CD 15 and my two BFPs came at 15 DPO which is a day late for me.

at the time of a negative test... you are NOT pg.   Sure it's possible that in a day or two the tests can change and become positive.   But until you have a positive test, you are not pregnant.  

no pregnancy hormone detected = not pg

pregnancy hormone detected = pg.

You could have ovulated later than normal, thus making your AF later.  It is possible you are KU, but you probably aren't.

Please learn about your body and how it works.  Taking Charge of Your Fertility is a good book that teaches you how your cycle actually works.

 

This.

Before the n00bs come on here and say "but aunt sally's hairdressers dog groomers aunt's lesbian partner never DID get a positive pregnancy test, and they had three kids!!"  yes, it IS possible.  However, it's INCREDIBLY rare and if you don't have a clue about how your body works (which is what my money is on), you're not pregnant as of now. 

Either *** or get off the pot.  Use protection or figure out how your body works so you don't do this month after month.

Wow! I'm not ignorant or clueless. I guess my original question was unclear. What I should have posted was how many days late were others when they got a BFP. And as far as not actively TTC, my husband and I discussed this and felt we would try a less pressured approach initially due to his high stress job. I didn't want to put an additional pressure on him. I have charted on ff in the past but not this month. So I don't know when I ovulated. And still no AF. 

 I'm new to this site and was looking for advice. Thanks for insulting me, though

And to the posted with the comment above....really?  That's you advice? Not everyone wants to obsess over getting pregnant with charting, feeling your cervix, etc. Believe it or not many folks just let it happen without forcing fate.  

 

There is a quote function.  If you're going to chastise me, might as well do it correctly. 

She's already obsessing about whether or not she could be pregnant.  My advice stands.  *** or get off the pot.  Either learn how your body works (which you can do without feeling your cervix)  or put yourself through the stress of "ZOMG--I'm a day late---why am I not getting a positive test---I'm obviously preggers!!"
