negative test result , but sure i am pregnant

I have 3 children (older) and had a misscarriage one year ago, i am 5 days over, have all the pregnant symptoms but test results are negative? I am worried that this indicates a non viable pregnancy again or do i have time for hope that my hormon lvl rise and i get positive result?

Just had my 12 week check-up today. I was a nervous wreck this week, but the appointment went well and the baby seems fine. My first baby, now a very healthy 7 year old, also needed 3 pregnancy tests (once a week for 3 weeks) before showing a positive home test. Who knows how accurate those home tests are, even though the companies who market them say they are accurate. Did you get a blood test at your doctor's office? HCG levels in your blood would be a more accurate test for pregnancy.

I was almost three weeks late until the home test finally showed a positive pregnancy. I had to take three tests, each a week apart, until one turned positive. I knew something was up because I'm not usually late. Maybe some women, or some home tests, take more time to show a positive on the test?  You may want to consider going to your ob/gyn for a blood test. Good luck!
