I may be pregnant... but I'm not %100 sure

[kaylee24]

I'm 17 years old and my period ended on or around July 15, 2008. Being over a month later, (August 16th), I am about 4 days late on my period. I also had protected sex (used a condom) with my boyfriend on July 27th. My period is usually always on the standard 28 day cycle.

About 2 days ago I told my boyfriend that I'm a few days late and we're both stressing over it. The only real 'pregnancy' symptom that I have been expressing is sore/tender breasts. But is it too soon to show symptoms?

Last night I took a Clearblue Easy Digital pregnancy test and it came up as "Not Pregnant". How accurate could this test have been? Was it too early to test? I want to test again but not sure when would be the best time... should I wait a few more days, etc.

Other than that, I'm pretty much clueless as to what my boyfriend and I should do. As anyone else would be, I'm extremely nervous and just want an answer. If anyone can help or give advice it would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Thanks

hey hun

umm when i thought i was pregnant my period was due on the tuesday and i tested on the saturday. which means i was 4 days late and it came up negative. but i then tested again on the tuesday when i was a week late and it came up positive. so yer like you at 4 days late i got a false negative. so if your period still doesn't come i would test again when you are a week late

hope this helps

xx

Hey, welcome to B&B
If the test was negative, it is possible for you to be late because you are stressing over maybe being pregnant. I know it's hard, but try and think about something else and take your mind off it, keep occupied by something else.
If you're still not on but Tuesday (a week late) then take another test... if it's still negative and no sign of your period, get yourself to the docs and explain what's happened hun.
Hope I've helped, and hope you get the result you want good luck xxx

Okay, thanks for the help. I'll wait a few more days to test again.

Yeah, it takes about 19 days for implantation etc to occur, so it's possible you tested a bit early. Just wait a few days and re-test, as the others have said. Good luck!

i tested when i was a week late and got a bfp straight away. having sore boobs isnt a deffinate pregnancy sign it could also mean that AF is due and it could be just stress thats making you late, when i was ttc i was stressing that i might be preg and it made my period just over a week late. try not to stress hun. wait a couple more days and test again and if AF still hasnt arrived and your still stressing id go to the doctors
