Hi!
It is possible that the test is wrong. I ALWAYS recommend repeating the pregnancy test, and getting a blood test if possible.
It is also possible that you are just having an "off" cycle. It is common for women to fail to ovulate every now and then--the ovaries "miss fire". When this happens, the period can be delayed by several days and often there are a lot of pregnancy-type symptoms during that time. When the period does finally come it is often heavier than usual.
Hope this helps!
Good luck!

Have you had a blood test? Because this would show if you are pregnant or not, I find it is much better this way, i dont trust the Hpt they are never accurate.. It is likely that you could be pregnant, but having a blood test will say for sure..
Good Luck!
