Now that I have figured out how to post a new thread, haha! I must have been blind or something, geez...


Okay....so this is not one of those am I pregnant or not posts, because I know you all are not doctors or anything but I do need some help from any of you that may have personal experience (or know someone that has) with false negatives...

So, my last period started on Sept. 12. My cycles are usually 30-35 days, but they have been known to be a little irregular at times. My bf and I are not exactly ttc but we would be absolutely happy if it happened. We do have unprotected sex, so the chances are higher. Anyway, for the past week/week and a half or so I have been having these symptoms : lower back pain (its killin me! but it also tends to hurt before I start too?), nausea (it comes and goes), headaches (which isn't that abnormal), and a cramping feeling in my lower abdomen but it doesn't feel like a normal period cramp, just a slight pinching discomfort is the best way I can describe it and also my hips tend to ache sometimes too? and its been happening everyday for the past week/week and a half or so. I took a test early on in the week last week and on Saturday morning (10/25), and they said negative, but I am still having these symptoms. My boobs aren't sore or tender which usually happens a week before I start but I know this also happens with PMS as well.

I guess my questions are: Have any of you had all these symptoms and had a negative result, and later turned out to actually be prego? Or have any of you had all these symptoms and turned up not to be pregnant? I'm trying to figure out if my head is just playin tricks on me, lol. I just really feel like there is something going on inside there! I have bought 3 more tests to take in the next few days. I can't go to the doctor to get a blood test because I don't have insurance so that is why I am writing to all you lovely people! Just need some words of advice, and then I'll take it from there!!

Thank you for taking the time to read this!
God Bless!

Other than sort of the phantom mentrual cramping, I didn't really experience any of those symtoms........at least early on I didn't. I did get the nausea, but that wasn't until i was about 8-9 weeks or so. If it does turn out that you keep getting negatives, it might be wise to see someone and determine if there's something else going on because with the back pain and what not, I'd just be concerned that there was another cause.

Well.. my sister went through the same thing as you, (if you are).. She had a lot of symptoms and everything. She was late for her period, but kept having negative tests. She would take a test everyday. You can definately have a negative showing early on even if you are. So finally at about 7 weeks along she got a positive test. So in the next few weeks if you don't have a positive test you should go to see a dr just in case it is something else like she said! Good luck though either way!

There had been numerous times I would actually have nearly every symptom possible. I'd take a test, it'd come back negative, then my period would start. It was like I'd have to test to prove to my body that I wasn't pregnant. Now, whenever I have tested and got a positive I'd had no symptoms other than a missed period. Just my experiences.

Soo anyone else out there have any insight to offer?? I still have not had my period. I took another test about a week and a half ago and it was still negative.

BUT I'm still having the same symptoms. The slight cramping feeling has went away for the most part. But I still am getting the nausea (actually got sick one of the times). I feel nauseous when I first get up, but then I am absolutely starving, then nauseous again, and then starving at night. I'm feeling lightheaded sometimes.
I've been coming home from work and taking long naps, and still going to bed at a decent time and sleeping through the night. My lower back is still hurting but its on and off now. I'm having kinda weird dreams pretty much every night. I haven't noticed a difference in peeing more than normal, bcuz I usually do that a lot anyway and my boobs are not sore.

I've pretty much convinced myself that I can't be pregnant if the test is still negative, but is this really all in my head??? Is there something else it could be? Someone PLEASE? I feel like I'm going crazy here....

I had all the same symptoms but my boobs were sore. I waited til I was 3 weeks late (I was supposed to start Sept 11th) When I took a test It came back positive. So you might be too soon to tell.

I also had all the symptoms before when I was younger and when I went the the doctors he told my that my hormones were tricking me into thinking I was pregnant when I was not. So your hormones might be tricking you.

I wish you luck!

I have experienced all of those symptoms (including the blue and spider veins on my breasts) and not been pregnant. I'm not exactly sure why it happened, if it's mind over matter or just hormones. You can go to Planned Parenthood without insurance and they can test for you. Good Luck!!!

Will they give me a blood test??

Okay...so this is my second missed period. I have an appointment at Planned Parenthood on Wednesday to find out whats going on! Wish me luck! I'll let ya know as soon as I find out! Thanks to all of you that took the time to respond!

i had no sympthoms and no period test results came up negative found out at two months i was pregnant really wasnt expecting it as tought it was polycystic ovarys or something
