Test is negative one week before my period is due,could I still be pregnant?

Question

I took a pregnant test on 3/5/12 and it came out negative. My period is due 3/11/12. Ppl tell me I have most of The pregnancy symptoms.(btw can someone name pregnancy symptoms?ex- how does your stomach feel and look in early pregnancy?) is it a good idea to test again on 3/09/12?thx and please no rude comments!
Also any advice?

Answer 1

My pregnancy test was negative until I was 4 days late. Sometimes it takes a while for the hormone to be strong enough to register on the test. You may still be pregnant. I would test again.

Answer 2

People normally don't get classic symptoms of pregnancy (nausea, fatigue, hunger) until at least 5 weeks since their last period.



Other early pregnancy symptoms are almost exactly the same symptoms you get when your period is coming. You can't distinguish between the two unless you end up being late for and missing your period.



Don't count on an accurate test until at least the day your period is due.

Answer 3

Yes, it's possible. Even the most sensitive tests usually can only detect pregnancy a couple of days prior to the missed period (and even then, the 'false negative' rate is fairly high).



Just wait until your period is officially late and try again for the most accurate result. If your period comes as scheduled, then you won't have wasted more money on another unnecessary test!

Answer 4

Wait until after your regular period date. If you havent gotten your period for a week or so after is when I would say to take the test. Best thing you can do now is not stress it. You may be showing symptoms but every woman shows symptoms of pregnancy at one time or another whether they are pregnant or not. If you stress about it you are more likely to stress yourself into not having a period. But even a period is not a sure sign that you are not pregnant. The best way to find out is to go to your doctor and have them run a pregnancy test. Their test is going to be more accurate than an at home test.

Answer 5

It's always a good idea to re-test.



During very early pregnancy, there are no real signs of pregnancy at a glance.

Answer 6

You tested too soon - wait a week then test

Answer 7

You can go to the doctor for check up.
