TTC #2 8 Days late

Hi!
So I have a very regular cycle - 30 days with a 4 day period starting on the 16/17 of every month.  I am now 8.5 days late on my May cycle. If I am pregnant, I would have conceived on May 2 - we did have unprotected sex that day. But I have taken 2-3 HPT within the first 5 days of being late and they were all BFN. I feel like I'm pregnant and I am adamant that I have been having symptoms of early pregnancy. But the BFNs are very discouraging. I can't go to my dr until around July 1st - that's when my new insurance kicks in. I honestly don't know what to do. I am trying to wait until next week to begin testing again because its hard to bear the BFN. Any words of advice?

I Used The Dollar Tree One And I Don't Remember The Other One. Some Can Just Detect A Lower Hcg Level Than Others.

I've used walgreens brand of First Response and name brand First Response. Both were lined tests. I DO have the digital First Response but I was under the impression not to do digital if I'm not showing on the lined ones. I haven't tried any other brand because I was told first response was the best. Any other brands that you suggest?

It might be that your hcg levels are to low... I would wait a few more days and test again.. You can get the dollar tree tests so that they are a little cheaper.. They work just fine. Are you using all the same tests or have you tried different ones??
