    Reasons I think I'm pregnant and why i hate pregnancy test
    Reasons I think I'm pregnant. (in no particular order)
    1. tender breast
    2. areola darker
    3. breast seem bigger
    4. random nausea
    5. random dizzyness
    6. beyond tired
    7. I now hate my favorite ice cream
    8. lower abdomen tighter than normal
    9. spotting
    10. Mild cramping
    11. Lack of period (should be here about now)
    12. I honestly feel different
    13. Peeing a whole lot more than I used to
    14. Emotional... it's weird.
    15. Heart burn for the first time in my whole life
    16. People who have no idea I may be pregnant. Telling me I'm glowing
    17. The "glow" is making my entire body tan... parts that have never seen the light of day are tan looking now.

    this is just what I can think of right now. But I still get negative results on a pregnancy test. I've done about 4 or 5 pregnancy test and they're all negative. I've used first morning urine and everything. Any advice. I'm either pregnant or a very sick person. Is it still too soon to take a test. Should I take a blood test. Advice. Please and thank you.

    I don't know the whole story on you personally, but what I can say it, I for one am having almost the same problem but over a week late and all negative tests but even blood tests are confusing too, like mine reads the hormone is there but too low to say I am preggos for sure, Most people get pos blood results within 2 weeks of implantation of the egg, with hpts they usually get pos results 3-4 weeks after there last period, for some people that not true due to when your body has ovulated, most people ovulate on day 14 of there cycle but some don't, if you know what day you ovulated it should give you a better timing of when you would see pos results

    Most of the early signs of pregnancy are ALSO signs of your period about to start.

    If you haven't missed a period yet, it's hard to say.

    If you TRULY believe you are pregnant, and are getting negatives on HPTs, then go to your doctor and get a blood test.

    See you doctor. Getting tan may be a sign of liver problems. They can check for pregnancy hormone in your blood too.

    I'm going to get a blood test done the beginning of next week. I hope to get a positive test by then.

    If I had a liver problem wouldn't I have more of a yellowish tint? I don't think it is a problem with my liver but I'll keep that in mind when I go to the doctor.

    Thanks for your help.
