Is it posible? Or can there be another reason?

I have 2 small children under the age of 3. I had my tubes tied 4 months after my second child was born. It's been a year and a half and this is the first time that I am two weeks late for my period. My husband and I do not use protection, because like I said, I was fixed! I have massive headaches, lactating, strong urges to pee, (even waking now in the middle of the night to do so), lower back pain and light cramping. My breast do feel a little tender, but I never really had that issue with either of my other pregnancies. I notice my veins in my breast are becoming more pronounced and I just have this strong feeling like I am pregnant. Just before I was supposed to start my period, I started cramping bad and having at lot of lower back pain, I thought it was starting soon, but it's now two weeks over due. I have taken a home preg test the first week I missed, and it came out negative. Has anyone who got there tubes tied had this issue and how likely am I pregnant?

I have not had my tubes tied, so all I know is from what I have read from other people on here........but I do know it is possible to get pregnant after your tubes are tied and I think it increases your chances of a tubal pregnancy. I would also take another test as there are chance of a false negative or maybe you have slow rising HCG. Symptoms are not enough to go by since they can be caused by other things.

Well I would take a PG test again now that's it's been 2 weeks. It's possible it's an etopic pregnancy IF they didn't completely take out the tubes or burn them. IF it shows up NEG again, and you don't get your period in a few days I would call the DR for a blood test to be sure.

I'm not sure if this has any baring on the situation, however I feel light headed all the time lately and having trouble concentrating. I know my blood pressure is just fine because I had it tested recently. Of course I'm irritated more often, but that can simply be the heat.

Need some honest opinions please!

Thanks
