Frustrated! 25 DPO, cycle 10 days, late, 3 negative tests!

I just can't figure this out!

Been trying to conceive for almost a year now, I'm 27, cycles have always been like CLOCKWORK, 18th-20th of each month, 30 day cycle. Ovulation tests say my best day was the 5th of March, hubby and I were on vacation, so we had fun those few days ;)

Almost 2 weeks after my last period was due, and 3 negative pregnancy tests later, I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday, but I am SO desparate to find out for sure!

(If anyone reading has had a child before....) How long did it take you to get your positive? Shouldn't I be showing a positive result by now?

I've tried 2 different brands, no digitals, the one I took today (Clear Blue Easy) showed a very faint positive line about 30 seconds after the test, but by the 1 minute mark it had almost disappeared. I have one more test left at home, and I really want to take it NOW hehehe but I will wait till tomorrow morning.

I haven't had any kids before but by now a pregnancy test should be showing up positive if you're pregnant. Sometimes stress can delay menstruation - that might be happening now. Other factors can also delay your period - like strenuous exercise, not weighing enough, etc.

But I doubt you're pregnant after three negatives, and after two weeks after missing a period, you'd definitely get positive pregnancy tests if you were pregnant. You can get a blood test to be sure from your OBGYN, but it's doubtful.

I'm sorry. There's always next month.

ETA: I've been like clockwork too, had 33 day cycles for about 7 months after quitting BC. then all the sudden I skipped two periods after Nov 1, 2011, got a period Jan 1, 2012, then skipped two more cycles and got my recent period Mar 14, 2012. (a 66 day and a 73 day cycle!). Sometimes our bodies do weird things, and it's frustrating. I'm sorry.

Melissa - can you update on your situation. I'm in the same boat and can't find much information. If you could post how things turned out, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!!!
