Hi,

Me and my husband have been trying for a baby for the past 3 months, each month my period has been regular with either a 27 or 28 cycle. This month I am now late for my period and am currently on day 32. I have taken a few home pregnancy tests but each one has come up negative.

When I had my first baby my test showed positive on the first day of my missed period, so I'm not sure what to do next this time around. Could I still be pregnant? I was wondering how long I should leave it before going to my GP.

Hope you can help. I'm getting a bit anxious now and just so keen to know for sure!

Hi
Some pregnancy tests will not register that you are pregnant until 3 weeks after fertilisation, so it depends upon when you had intercourse and sperm came into contact with an egg. I would possibly leave it another few days and do another pregnancy test, but please do not get anxious.
