How many days late are you? I think I would wait and retest depending on that. Sometimes even a day or two late is not enough for HPT to pick up. It could be your body regulating itself too. I did IVF and it failed. Got AF after going off meds. The next month I was a week late. If you are trying to not spend the money then maybe take another HPT in a day or two.

Also, I don't know if I would use Clomid again until you are sure. Not sure if you should take it if you are pregnant. Good luck!

thanks lioness, i'm 1 week late. i've not tried clomid since the clomid challenge test at the beginning. we're using follistim during the iui's. i just thought clomid might boost my follicles for us to try bd while we wait for jan. af

Could you have ovulated late? I know after my first fertility treatment I ovulated a week late. I really hope you could be pregnant!

i've only been pg once and really knew it from the breast tenderness. i just don't feel it. we didn't even check opt. just had fun! do you always get that tenderness? i'm a week late, that should show on the hpt, right?

I would think a week late would show. Your body may just be regulating itself this month. I heard every pregnancy is different, even for each person. Maybe you should call the doctor to be sure or find out if it would hurt to take the Clomid if you are pregnant. I know I am not supposed to take my Lupron if I am. Good luck!

aww! i pray you are pregnant but a confirmation from the doc might be best in this situation. [FINGERS CROSSED]

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
