I dare say a lot of what were very early misses used to be put down as late periods. I read somewhere that around one in six pregnancies ends naturally in a miscarriage, because something is wrong. A dd had one at only about 6 weeks, after a positive test, and another - a ‘missed’ miscarriage, i.e. she still had symptoms, but there was nothing on the scan, at 8 weeks. That one was particularly distressing, but she went on to have 3 trouble free pregnancies.
I don’t know about anybody else, but long before you could buy tests, I knew I was pregnant very early on both times, because of a weird tingling in my right breast - exactly the same each time.
