late period and sore breast...but a negative HPT?

[hopfulEparents]

ok so im 2 days late on my period, Ive taken two HPT's(both negative) and my boobs are hurting in a way they never have before.. So for starters I dont remember ever having a late period. They have come early but not late. In terms of my soreness they are hurting on and off and it just started a few hours ago. So here's the big question that everybody seemes to want to know: could I be pregnant??? I mean i know that sometimes the chemical isnt present enough to register on the test but I dont know... Also I realized that Im spotting (so lightly though that it could hardly b called spotting. I have cramps but I always get around this time of the month. My nipples havent changed color and I hear that is pretty common. I need to know if you guys have anything else that might help me determine this asap. My husband wants me to wait about a week before I go try and get a blood test but Im just so excited and I want to know (good or bad I just want to know).

Does anyone know a more effective way to take a HPT? is it better to pee right on it or in a cup??? What would my CM look like if I was pregnant? I dunno... if anyone has anything helpful please oh please let me know!!! Sorry If I was too descriptive... Im just so excited that this is even a possiblity that Im entertaining. Please give me your honest opinion (even if its that you dont think Im pregnant) thanks for the help all!

I am in having the same symptoms as yourself apart from the sore breasts.  I have a lot of light cramping in my lower abdomen constantly needing to pee and have been hungry a lot more than usual and i am also a week late.  I have taken a HPT on Monday which came back negative so i am going to take another one on saturday if it is still negative i've got an appointment next wednesday for a blood test.  My periods are always on time and a heavy 4 day flow, also my sis has just found out she's pregnant and has been having the same symptoms your describing she's now 5 weeks gone.  I hope this helps keep us updated with how things go

I know when I was pg, which wasnt long ago, the only thing I had was sore breasts, but that started about a week before my period, but when I tested I got a Neg one week and a pos two weeks later, so you could be, or could be stressing yourself out that your body is holding out on your period.  I know I havent had a period in two months, and I am as regular as they come and all my tests are negative.  go online and buy a bunch real cheap and just keep taking them to calm you down, I did.. take one each morning or even the afternoon to just calm your nerves.  cramping is normal too if you are pg.. so one calm down and try not to get to excitied and just let things happen.. good luck

I guess late is the wrong word. I mean ive missed my period (as of now)
