Spotting at week 4 and negative pregnancy tetsts

I started spotting last week for 5 days. It started a week before my expected period. First I thought it was my period But it was very light and I had really bad cramping only for a few hours that first day. I heard it could be implantation bleeding but I'm not sure? I already took 3 pregnancy tests and all say negative. But I feel very pregant I have almost all of the symptoms. Could my hcg levels just not be high enough to detect yet or am I really not pregnant? I'm losing my mind not knowing what to think. Help?!

could have been a chemical pregnancy also.
it all depends, every woman is different.
I SWORE I was pregnant in December, I had cravings, mild cramping since I Ovulated, sore boobs, etc. But every test I took was negative. When my December period came, it was a few days early, very heavy, and lots of clots - my dr said it could have been a chemical pregnancy - which a lot of women have apparently, but don't/never know because they never get a positive test, and miscarry (or 'start their period') around the time their period is supposed to come.

I was the same way i started spotting and when i was at work was feeling so light headed and pregnant symptoms like i did with my first child but because of the spotting i just thought i was working too hard and decided to go home early i even told my bf that this dont seem or feel like my period with our daughter i didn't spot at all just felt cramps and sick and missed my period so he brought a pregnancy test and it came back negative so i went on with my life then the spotting stopped for a month and happened again went to the doctor to take a test they said no im not then i went in for a regular check up like almost a month later and they told me i was pregnant went to get an ultrasound to see how far i was due to the situation i was goin through and i was almost 4 months pregnant if you feel you are then most likely you are i knew i was but was listening to the test and didn't put much effort to find out and thank god i dont drink and smoke cause i probably wouldve done some damage thinking i wasnt pregnant so go to your doctor and ont just take a pee test good luck

I spotted a week after i conceived. Same exact way, very light but no cramping and im at week 4 with mild morning sickness and cravings. But you somehow "just know" because your body is changing and things arent normal. Just wait it out and do not stress in case you are pregnant.

Go to the doctor and get a blood test if you really think you are pregnant

Call your ob and get a blood test. I have been pregnant 4 times and every test I've ever taken has come back neg.

Could have been just a light cycle. But u can wait a week and test again but if it's neg then ur probably not. Or schedule a blood test with ur doctor u will definitely know then.
