    Could I still be pregnant and not know it?
    My last cycle was on November 8 and on November 18th my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex. Its December and I missed my period. I took a test(negative) so I thought nothing of it but now even though my breasts are the same size they hurt REALLY bad... and I'm getting a lot more headaches... I threw up only ONE time from a migraine the other night but other than that I don't feel sick. Could I still be pregnant and not know it?

    It's possible that it was too early to test. When did you take the pregnancy test? Did you use first morning urine?

    Yes u could be pregnant as u should know all tests are 99% accurate, plus u have had unprotected sex within your most fertile times which is usually 10 days after your period and lasts for up to 5 days. The best thing is to get another test done to be sure.and go to your gp.

    Please don't yell. All caps is considered yelling on the internet, and it's not allowed on this site. Thanks. :)

    Pregnancy tests are fairly accurate, but a lot depends on the woman, when the test was taken, the time of day the test was taken, and many other factors.

    Some women don't get a positive result until their second, even third trimester of pregnancy so to say that the tests are 99% accurate isn't as accurate as you would think. If there's any doubt, see your doctor.

    I was thinkn that it was too early when I took the test. I tested in the evening instead of the morning because I was told that morning was best but anytime of the day didn't really matter. Thinkn I'll retest with morning urine!!

    You definitely could still be pregnant. When I was pregnant with my first I didn't show a positive pregnancy test until 5 months. Same with blood tests. Everything was negative. Go by your gut feeling, and if you're really worried go to your doctor if you don't get your next period. I'd become worried then, not now.
