Ok, here's the situation, my cycles are goofy, but by now I should've had AF, -breasts are sore, feel nauseous, head & backache, tired- no AF, took a test, it was negative, this would be my 2nd pregnancy, and I thought for sure it'd say ++, is it possible to have a false negative due to my long cycle, or since I feel the symptoms isn't it likely the test was accurate, I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure this out, just want to know the likeliness of having symptoms before the hcg levels are high enough to show a + pregnancy test? Any help?

My question is, how late are you and yes it would be possible to feel symptoms, however if your cycles are not consistent it might just be that. but good luck and keep us posted!!
