Well, I was supposed to start my period on Nov. 5. I have had a regular 30 day cycle for the entirety of this year. I took a clear blue pregnancy test on Sunday(day 4) and it was negative. I have been overwhelmingly tired, peeing frequently, and am having odd twinging cramps. I want to take another pregnancy test just to be sure, but I do not want to waste the money if I am not pregnant. Oh, and me and my husband do not use any protection (other than he pulls out) but that's not really a preventative measure:) Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank You in advance!

Wait another week and then try another test. If that is negative, you should go see your doctor as there are urinary infections that can cause similar symptoms

Okay, thanks for the advice but I do know that it is not an infection (been there, done that) I will probably go see my doctor if it does not come soon though, just to be sure and make sure everything is okay

I agree with the above. Wait another week and try another hpt, remember to use first morning urine.
Also remember that pregnancy symptoms and PMS are very similar, so you might just be having an off month.
If you are using the pull out method then you will be pregnant soon as it isn't a form of birth control. In fact, no birth control is 100% effective, even if you use two or 3 different types pregnancy is always possible. If you want to lower the odds of becoming pregnant then please use the pill and a condom.
Good luck.

Thank you for your reply.
Me and my husband decided to leave us getting pregnant up to fate some time ago. We are in a tight financial situation right now, so I am trying not to jump the gun and go take another pregnancy test if it can be avoided. At the same time I want to know as soon as possible!
Thanks again for your advice :)

I think you should go see a docter. Just do a normal check up and mabye he could tell you what's going on.

Thanks again. Just wanted to add that it is now almost to a.m. and I have been bent over with stomach cramps, dizziness, and feeling extremely nauseas for the past 3 hours... Ugh, I hate when my body does weird things!
If I get more stomach cramps like this I am definitely going to see my OBGYN regardless, because this can not be normal! I have never been in so much pain!
I appreciate everybody giving me advice and helping me out here!
I feel like I am complaining a lot, but I have been so uncomfortable for weeks now and I have not the slightest clue as to what's going on with my body!
Thanks again everybody!!

It may be late for an answer, just a suggestion... but I bought my last pregnancy test at the 99 cents store. I was 7 days late and got a positive answer. I know many other girls who use that test as well. Works just the same as the 15 dollar ones, and saves a great deal of money... oh, it wasn't 99 cents. It was a 1.59. :)

Lol! Thank you very much! I did go out today and bought first response just to be sure, because I am tired of the back n forth!
So tomorrow morning will be the day of truth I suppose...
Also started seeing some light brown discharge, barely anything really just a little tiny bit when I wipe.
So I am not sure if that is AF or what...
Will post when I find out for sure!
Thanks for all your help though!

Pg test was negative... the light brown discharge was tinted with a little pink as of yesterday afternoon, but haven't seen any of it at all today... So, I don't know what that is all about... Thanks for all your help...
