pregnancy test negative

Hi everyone,
My last period started on June 25th. I had sex on July 11th and had light red/brown bleeding from July 19th to 23rd. My expected period date was July 19th. I took a test yesterday, July 29th, and it was negative. I have all sorts of pregnancy symptoms, and rationally speaking, it could still be possible that I am pregnant. My GP is on holiday for another two weeks. I’d really like to get a blood test, but I don’t know where to go. Or can someone tell me when I can take another test? I’ve read online that many women get a negative test even though they are pregnant. They only get a positive test at least five weeks after intercourse; in my case, that would be mid-August. Pff, I hope I don’t have to wait that long... Anyway, what’s the best timeframe to test?

    Don't you have a substitute GP when your own is on holiday? You could call them, right?
    Could it also be that your cycle is just a bit off and you should see that light bleeding as your period? That you're already starting your next cycle now?

    I'm on vacation somewhere else in the Netherlands, so that observer is there, but then I have to go home. And yeah, who knows, my cycle might be off, but I'm still hoping it's implantation bleeding.

    Oh yeah, that's tricky... Then I can't really help you further either... I think a blood test would give the most clarity.

    Thank you for your response, Knuffel. Does anyone know where you can get a blood test done, other than at your own general practitioner?

    Ugh, I'm starting to go a bit crazy...
    My period should have started on Monday, but so far nothing... I took a test on Sunday and this morning: not pregnant.
    This morning I did a second test with my second urine because I had to wake up at half past 2 in the night to pee, and I did the test around quarter to 8...

    My symptoms:
    - Stomach cramps
    - No appetite, I fill up quickly (I'm usually a huge eater)
    - White discharge
    - Severe headaches before the weekend
    - A bit nauseous during the day
    - Gurgling stomach/intestines.
    - Slightly sensitive nipples, but I had that last month too.

    Help anyone?

    Finally, some recognition!
    I'm now 6 days overdue and had a negative test this morning. I totally relate to your symptoms!
    Throughout the day, I keep feeling like I have a full belly, but more towards the bottom—I guess it's my uterus?
    I called my GP this morning, but they said it doesn't necessarily mean anything, so we're just waiting it out.
    I've read on many forums that you can still get a positive test, but this uncertainty is making me a bit crazy right now.

    Oh, that's so sad! I can totally imagine how much hope this gave you, thinking it might have been a success after all. I'm waiting impatiently.
