Hi mom's. I am at a standstill waiting right now and was wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I missed 2 BC pills and am now 10 days late. Because I have endometriosis, I have a lot of pain before each cycle. Everyday at the same time I have pain like it is going to start, but a few hours later it goes away and does not start. With my first pregnancy, I had cramps for 3 months because of the endometriosis. I have taken a few pregnancy tests and they have all come up negative. My dr says to wait a week and take another, if that one is negative to wait another week and take another at home test if it still doesn't show. Has anyone else experianced this? I just hate waiting!

What can I do next?

I would say this is more hormonal than pregnancy. If you are ten days late, it is unlikely your pregnancy test would be negative now. I have endometriosis and have experienced the pains you are referring to. If you are ready for more kids, I'd say stay off the pill and let yourself regulate! Good luck!!

I have had false negatives for the first two weeks after my missed period with two pregnancies. I totally feel your frustration! Just think though, our grandmothers didn't know until they were like 11, 12 weeks along. THAT is a wait.
Give it a week, otherwise you're just throwing money away.
Take in a deep breath, do something to distract yourself.
Congratulations if you are!

It's possible that you will need a blood test to tell if you are pg. Your body may not be producing enough HcG in your urine to detect a pregnancy. Can you ask your doctor for a blood test?
Also cramping is normal in the 1st tri. It may have been related to to your endo, but everyone gets it when they are pregnant. It is because your uterus is stretching to make room for the growing baby.
