    No if you took three test and they came back negative I don't think your pregnant its probably late for some other reason I'm late all the time but I'm not pregnant

    If you have had sex in the last month, then yes, it is possible. You may not have enough of the pregnancy hormon hcg built up yet to trigger a test. False negatives are extremely common in the early weeks. Some women can go an entire pregnancy and never register on a test. I suggest if your period has not come in another week, to go to your doctor and ask for a blood test. Good luck.

    May I add to what alkaline said if you don't start within a week take another HPT using first morning urine this way it gives the HCG hormone to build up in your system.

    This is wrong information, please do not pay attention to this. There are many reasons for false negatives. In all actuality many women never get a positive with a HPT and need a blood test. I was one of these women with one of my children.

    There are far more false negatives than there are false positives.

    Also do not drink a lot of water (or any drink) right before testing. The hormone will not have time to build up.
