    6 days late but tests show negative
    Hi all,

    I am 6 days late now, I have taken 2 testes both show negative. I don't have any early pregnancy symptoms apart from headaches and being tired most of the time. I have had a very light spotting in two different days.
    I am really confused, what could be causing it if I'm not pregnant?
    Could I still ebb pregnant? I have used digital clear blue it think those are pretty accurate? Can I have your opinions please??

    First... the only "early pregnancy symptom" that actually is one... is a missed period. However you are probibly testing too soon. You should wait until you are 14 days late to test... and when you do, its right after you wake up, the first time you pee that morning.

    Keep in mind there are some women that will still test negative even when they are for several months.

    Thanks for your advice , I though it would show up one as it says over 99% accurate if used one day after you miss period. Thanks again

    No, the "one day late" is good advertising and they sell a lot more test. It is possible for a few women sometimes to test at that date, but most can not.

    You need to wait till you are two weeks late just to test. Some women may not even show positive until the 2nd or 3rd momth
