Three days late with negative tests and period like cramps

Just wondering if anyone has experienced something similar and what happened.
I'm currently 3 days late for my period, I've tested the day of being due on (mid day) and the following morning (first urine) both were negative. I used the digital clear blue test which you can test up to 6 days early.
I've had cramping on/off since about 2 days before I was due on.
Just feeling incredibly anxious now as my periods are like clockwork normally.

Hi, sorry to hear. I have had similar in my many months of TTC at least two or three times I've been late and tested negative..it's so frustrating, but it's usually because you have actually ovulated slightly later than you thought. Did you confirm your ovulation through OPKs or temping?

Hi I’m going through something similar. I have lots of cramping digestive issues heartburn and Alot of CM which normally would be very dry. I’m day late for my period and still testing negative, I tested yesterday am with a clear blue but I might try tomorrow with an early detection. Any update?

It came the next day so 4 days late which never happens but there we go.
How about you?
