Could I still be pregnant?

My last period ended on January 26 2012, and I completely missed my February period. I had some very light spotting on feb 16 that lasted for only a day. Not heavy enough to be considered my actual period. This has never happend to me that's why i am kinda alarmed. Me and my boyfriend have beem having alot of unprotected sex last month using the pullout method. My cycle is never more that 33 days. I do have most of the symptoms. But I took a pregnancy test when I was 3 days after my missed period and came out negative. I took another one when I was 8 days late and still negative. Now I am 17 days late and still no signs of my period coming. Could I still be pregnant even tho I got 3 negative tests? I do have a feeling that I am pregnant but I've been wrong in the past so I'm just confused and looking for answers. Please any feed back will

Firstly the pull out method is not a reliable form of birth control at all and does lead to pregnancy. So it's possible.

But pregnancy test ARE reliable as long as your using them correctly. Since you've tested since your period is late and it came back negative then it's unlikely you're pregnant. Something else is probably causing the delay. I would go speak to your doctor and see what they say. Maybe ask them to do a blood test just to double check your not pregnant. Many things can delay a period and not just pregnancy.

Hmmm.sometimes you can't rely on pregnancy test. So your best bet to make sure is go to the doctors office tell them your symptoms and go from there.
