I have had regular periods since I was 13. I am now 30, have had one miscarriage, and one baby who is now 1. I have been off because pills for 4 months and have still maintained a regular cycle. I am now 4 days past due for a period and have not seen one. My breasts are swollen, I have had on and off nausea, and a killer headache about every other day. I have taken 2 home pregnancy tests 3 days apart and both were negative. Should I see my doctor?

You should see your doctor to put your mind at ease. They can do blood work instead of the urine tests.

Your symptoms could be pregnancy symptoms or they could be because your body is going haywire from a late period.

Schedule an appointment right away.

Did you take your tests in the morning? You do know that is the best time?

Not only have I done the test in the morning, if my alarm is going off at 5 am and I am waking up at 3 am to use the rest room, I did the test at 3 am so that I would have let the urine build up enough hcg

Through many comments on this site, women have had negative tests and were actully pregnant.

Wait a few more days for your period to come around, then take another test.

I agree. I actually had a friend who took many tests that came back negative. Even the doctor did a test that came back in conclusive. So the doctor did a ultrasound and there was baby. Get a appointment and see what the doctors says

Thanks for all the advice, I called my doctor and since I miscarried and than had a preemie, they thought I could never be to cautious. I go in tomorrow for a sono and blood test
