3 days late, 2 negative tests, and symptoms?

Ok, my normal cycle ranges from 26 to 28 days. I am on day 31 now and still no period. My husband and I have been casually ttc for the last year, after a chemical pregnancy got our hopes up only to have them dashed. Here is the thing. I'm having all these symptoms like i'm pregnant... sore breasts, bloating, gas, tiredness, shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea... and I keep feeling like my period is about to start, but no period blood - only a yellowish white discharge. I took 2 pregnancy tests. One on the 29th day, and one this morning. Both came back negative. I've heard you can get negative tests and still be pregnant.... but as much as I hope for a baby, i'm also scared to death of getting another chemical pregnancy. Hubby is too... and doesn't hesitate to remind me that the last time I got my hopes up for pregnancy, it ended before it could even begin. What I'm wondering is, even though my tests say negative, could I still be pregnant for real? Or is this just another chemical pregnancy to dash my hopes again?? I'm scared to think I might be pregnant, cause I don't want the disappointment of loss... but I can't ignore the symptoms. Help?

Thanks for the support. Sadly, my hopes were deferred yesterday night when mother nature decided to crash my pregnancy hopes yet again. :-( I guess it was another chemical pregnancy, just as I'd feared.

I've been where you are. I've had 5 miscarriages in the past 3 years and I hate to get hopeful only to be disappointed. I get very early signs of pregnancy but I wait at least 2 weeks past cycle due date to get the bfp on the hpt. I'm testing today. I'm hoping for both of us.
