Symptoms but negative HPT

Is it at all possible to be getting some symptoms of pregnancy and yet get negative HPT results??  My reasoning is that if you are pregnant enough to get symptoms then the test would be positive, wouldn't it??
Thanks!

I had the same problem when i first got pregnany, I had symptoms of pregnancy and had no possitive test. then one day it came up possitive for a week then suddenly went back to neg. i went to the hospital and got it checked,they said i was not pregnant, then another week later i had a possitive again...lol and i still had 1 weeks before my period. i was so confused,i thought well maybe i had a miscarry but then my husband was thinking and said to me "hun we havent had sex since you went to the hospital.." haha so then i knew that i was pregnant,but when i went to the hospital i just wasnt pregnant enough to show anything, i went to an OBGYN and found out i was actually only 5 weeks, now im in my 37th week, so YES! i think its very possible to have pregnancy symptoms with no poss. test. heck i did. just keep testing until you find out for sure. but i had symptoms like: nausea,vomiting,headaches,cramping,flu symptoms,dizziness,and i was super tired. Good Luck!

Hello,

Most women experience some signs or symptoms of pregnancy as early as three weeks after conception. The most common symptoms of early pregnancy are:

Amenorrhea
Nausea with or without vomiting
Breast tenderness
Increased frequency of urination
Fatigue

Yes, depending on the sensitivity (how well and how early the test detects a pregnancy) of the pregnancy test a woman could have symptoms of pregnancy and still not test positive.

Best regards,

Dr. Downing

My last period was Jan 3rd. It has been 82 days since my last period. I have had 3 preg tests all negative. I have been getting headaches and back aches. In the past 2 weeks my stomach above my belly button has been getting hard after I eat.I can't eat the amount of food I used to. I get this unfortable full/bloated feeling.   i am very overweight and my dr says it's probably due to that. I lost my insurance the end of Feb and I wont be getting new ins with my new job for a few months. I can go to planned parenthood and get an exam but they wont do blood work or anything. I have also been having cramps like AF cramps. They were worse a few weeks ago but they seem to be happening less often.
Has anyone ever tested positive this late after testing neg? has anyone ever had their period stop due to obesity?

I have taken 3 test in the last 4 days!  I am currently three days late, and very very anxious to find out...If you can try (I cant) to wait a couple days maybe a week before you test again, that might be alittle more helpful!  Good luck to you!

I realized that I was imagining the symptoms even though I wasn't pg.  It also doesn't help that I was suffering with migraines, which tends to have the same symptoms as pg.

That's exactly my question... can you possibly get the actual symptoms early on and yet test negative??  If the symptoms are already there then shouldn't I test positive???

Well, some pregnancy symptoms as same as PMS... so maybe you're just about to get your period.  Or maybe you're so early on (only days) in your pregnancy and so it will still come out negative.  I suggest you either wait to see if you get your period and if not then take a pregnancy test and you'll be sure... good luck!
