Posted on Mon, 9 Apr 2018

Question: Hi there

I had a preterm labour on 15th April of this year delivering a healthy baby boy unfortunately he was to premature to survive. They diagnosed me with Incompetent Cervix. My partner and I have been trying to conceive since with my period starting 5th July on a 29-31 average cycle, this month my period was due Sunday 5th and as of yet today 8th I havnt had it. I've taken 3 tests and they are all negative. Would you suggest to wait or go and get a blood test? Many thanks
