Go to the doctor to get a test! I did the same thing with my first child. It turned out I was 6 weeks pregnant, but for some reason the home tests weren't detecting it.

Have you been under alot of stress? Stress can definitely make your period late and make you tired. As for the boobs, they can feel the same way when you have your period, so it's possible you may be getting your period soon. Although I will say all of those symptoms are definitely symptoms of pregnancy. Give it a couple more days, try a different brand of pregnancy tests. Let us know.

sometimes it takes a while for preg hormones to show up on a pee stick... try again in a few days or a week.

I took 3 pregnancy tests w/ my second. All negative. Could not figure out why I was sooooooooo tired/run down. Doc said to come in and have hormones tested. When they drew blood to check, it showed up that I was pregnant, 12 weeks and one day... There's still hope!! : )

your mind can play terrable tricks on you. If you are trying to get prego, relax it will happen when it is your time. Hard to do trust me I know. I tried for 6 months to conceive my 1st and I wanted it so bad I missed my period for 30 days My OB put me on meds to bring it on. I had all the symptoms of prego too, but no I was not.

If you are not tring to get prego, again relax I have a friend that has not gotten her period in 3 weeks and has all the symptoms and has taken tests every 3 days and all are negetive from all different companies. It happens. Call your OB and get checked out what can that hurt.

Most importantly RELAX, if you stress out about it you will only worry yourself even more and never get to the bottom of it. Call you OB get a REAL answer.

Good Luck.

With the stress of not knowing and no period still I would make an appointment to see your doctor and find out for sure. These tests are not always right and you need to find out and put your mind at ease and either way then you can relax and wait to get PG or you are and enjoy it.

When pregnant with my first I took four negative home tests and then one at the doctor. I was about 7 weeks before getting a positive and my symptoms kept increasing. Hang in there. If you are pregnant, your baby will show up. I wouldn't take another test for a week or two (if you can stand it). Hang in there!

I feel for you - I'm in the same boat! Initially I thought I could tell my period was coming, but when it didn't I secretly took the test, expecting it to be positive. It came back negative and it still hasn't come. I'm bloated, tired and feel a little ill already - is that the anxiety?? Now I'm too scared to take another test incase it's negative, and if I feel anything I'm checking myself incase it's finally come. My BP has gone up just thinking about it. My husband doesn't get back till Saturday, but I'm not sure I can take the suspense any longer, but I'd like to wait incase it is positive this time around. The test said to wait 3 days after the first negative as the hormones or whatever may not be "strong" enough. Hope you find your answer soon!
