It's still prob too early for a pregnancy test to be accurate yet, early pregnancy you would be tired but your appetite wouldn't normal increase that early. There's nothing you can do but wait & see I'm afraid, if ur period still hasn't arrived in afew days try again or go to your doc & ask for a blood test but they don't normally do without reason. Hope u get the answer you want. Good luck

Yes increase in discharge is a symptom but unfortunately most early symptoms are very similar to getting your period. I know I was convinced my period was arriving & was getting the pains etc. I know it's prob all you can think about but try & hold off testing again for afew more days. Good luck :-)

Yes they do do blood tests. I had a negative pregnancy test and then went to the docs as I hadn';t had a period for 14 weeks and they did a blood test which showed I was pregnant. Wait a few more days to see if you come on, if you don't then retest with a home test. If it say's positive then you are pregnant but if it says negative then give your GP a call and ask for an appointment for them to take a blood test to check your hcg levels. Good luck.

They said that your hormones are increasing everyday so if you wait a few more days then retest again. If it is negative and you still have no period then ring your doc. If you have got a doc in your surgery that specialises in ladies health then go to them. Thankfully I have in the surgery I go to and she is the 1 that gave me after seeing 4 normal docs before her.

14 days is normally how long you would wait but depending on the home test it may be able to detect lower amounts of hCG, it needs to be at least 5mls I think to be detected. If still negative then ask ur doc about a blood test. Good luck

i did my test at 5days past due on my period with a clearblue test and got a positive result with 2-3week conception indicator. Maybe it be worth spending a little bit more for a more accurate test that tells u yes or no rather than trying to analyse a line? Hope u get the answer u seek, always remember to test first wee of the day as this has strongest concentration of HCG. Good luck xx

I'm 28 weeks pregnant. I didn't get a positive pregnancy test until I was a couple of weeks past my period due date and even then it was only a feint line at first. So you could be pregnant. Unfortunately only time will tell, keep testing. Good luck :-)

Its best to do a clear blue test cause it is very accurate n its better than the one Gp's use

Hello I’m new on here. I am 33 and have a 14yr old I didn’t no I was pregnant until 4 days before I had her. Any way me and my partner have been trying to get pregnant for what feels like forever. I had period 1 Nov and had a bit of spotting in Dec but nothing where needed a pad on. I have done 3 tests and 2 were 100% negative but 1 not so sure as I’m not sure if there was a really faint line. I have been feeling sick and headaches and I have lost appitite when I have a drink or eat anything I have no taste, my boobs look and feel bigger bras don’t fit, nipples are darker, belly feels bigger and bloated, and for couple of days now I have been getting weird achey stretching sensation in my lower tummy. Anyone have any advise. I am going to try and get into my drs in the morning
