Pregnant?

Hi there,

My name is Melany.
I'm new here, I was looking for forums to share my story a bit. And I'm also hoping for some answers and experiences from others..
My last period was on April 18, 2016, and I've been trying to get pregnant for a while now but it hasn't worked out yet. I went on vacation on April 29 and had sex there. (with my own boyfriend, of course ).
I was supposed to get my period on May 16, 2016.. I sometimes get my period late, so being 5 days late isn't unusual for me. I suddenly got stomach cramps and stabbing pains on the right side of my lower abdomen..
I also threw up one evening and felt really nauseous..
Now I'm 14 days late and have stomach cramps almost every day. I think every time that my period is coming but then it doesn't happen. I've never been 14 days late before! and I've also noticed mood swings lately ..

But just to be sure, I took a test yesterday.. and did another one this morning but it was NEGATIVE! which gives me more uncertainty because I still haven't gotten my period..
Does anyone have any tips for me?

Thanks in advance! ,

Melany

    Hi Melany, you should probably stop by the GP for a blood test. That will show whether or not you're pregnant. A simple urine test can always give a false negative. For example, if your levels are low for now (they do increase during pregnancy), you could test negative even if you are pregnant. Clearblue tests are very good but expensive. So you might as well go to the GP. A false positive is basically impossible with a urine test unless you're on hormonal treatment. A blood test is usually always accurate: I'd say go ahead. Fingers crossed!
