Pregnant?

Hi. I am 18 years of age. My partner and I are ttc. I currently stopped taking the pill, levlen. 3 months ago and have had normal periods after this. I am now 16 days late for my period And have taken 3 pregnancy test that are all negative. I have had constant headaches,continually tired, nausea and vomiting occasionally, loads of pimples breaking out ( normally have good skin) and kind of cramps but not as bad. When I lay on my tummy I feel awkward like I shouldn't be on my stomach. I keep thinking maybe it is all in my head. But I really want a baby. Has anyone else had this, where they have negative tests then end up being pregnant? Can my hcg levels still not be high enough for the test to pick up??
I either want to know I'm pregnant or get my periods. Because this waiting is killing me.

if a urine test doesnt work then you should go to the doctor and get a blood test done maybe that one would give you the best answer.

Boobop, how far along we're you when it and it was negative?

Speck2677, all three pregnancy tests I took in the morning. As soon as I woke up.
I think I might buy a test this arv and test again tomorrow. And go to the doctors if neg.
I really hope i am pregnant and have an answer soon. I just wanted to know if it was maybe common for it to be negative to start off with.

if you haven't try to take the test in the morning right after you wake up.there is a lot more of the HCG in your urine.

i would say take another test and if its negative again go visit the doctor. perhaps also consider looking at the birth control side effects when you come off of it. it does take some time before your bodies hormones get back to working on their own.
hope you get an answer soon, waiting isn't easy

I had that issue... I took a pregnancy test and its came out negative then I took another one a week after I missed my period and it came out positive. I think you shouldn't stress so much cause that can bring your levels down so the test won't read it as positive. Just give it time!
