I apologize ahead of time if this is long, but I'm freaking out!!

The end of May, I suspected that I was pregnant. I was tired all the time, somewhat nauseous, headaches, frequent urination and so on. I took an HPT on May 25th (I was 2 days late)and it came back negative. I then had a period on June 5th. It's now July 24th, and still no sign of AF. I still have the symptoms I had before, plus backaches and some mild dizziness. That and my pants are starting to get REALLY tight. Took another HPT on July 20th and I thought maybe I saw a really faint line indicating positive, but I took it as I was paranoid and hallucinating it...lol. I go see my Dr. on August 7th, where they'll do a blood test and ultrasound. But I don't understand if I am preggo, then why isn't it registering on HPT? Any thoughts on this is greatly appreciated!!

As far as I know, every body is different. What may be normal levels for one body may be abnormal in other bodies. Pregnancy tests may not be picking up the level of hcg in your body. Also, you may not be pregnant. Sometimes, our mind can make our bodies do funny things. The symptoms you have might be caused by nutrition, stress, or any number of things. It sucks not knowing. I am waiting on the results of a blood test myself. I have had 4 negative hpt, but I really think I am pregnant too. huggs. -h

Thanks for the responses. I'm hoping it's just stress, but I have my doubts. I've been through worse stress than what I'm going through now and AF still showed up. But, there's a first time for everything. Thanks again and I'll post what I find out from the Dr.

I hope your test comes out the way that you want it to!

Maybe you could help me. I am 10 days late for my period (last two months it came right on time), we have been trying to conceive, but HPTs have been negative. Husband and I thought we had faint line in Fact Plus, but not sure. Had a blood test but Doctor could not confirm/deny pregnancy...said the HCG level was too low to give me a positive answer and wants me in to do a urine test next week. Is it possible that I am pregnant and the levels aren't registering yet? Swollen, tender breasts, up a few nights a week dry heaving, etc., nauseous during the day with headaches would point to pregnancy. A little confused to say the least! Any opinions/thoughts would help! Thanks!
