I usually have a 29 day cycle and this month I would have O'd around June 10 or 11th. Days which I had intercourse. I've been having the early signs of pregnancy, sore bb's, light abdominal cramps, very tired, nauseated at times, super smell and headache. My period is due on Saturday (June 24th) and if not then in the subsequent days after that. I took a HPT this morning and it was neg. Could I still be pregnant? And if so, when should I test again?

HPTs are most effective 5 days after a missed period. They advertise that they can be effective as early as 4 days before to make you buy more tests!
I suggest that you want until day 7 and test first thing in the morning when the hormone concentration in your urine in highest. Remember, the positive line can be very faint, but even a faint line is a positive. Sometimes it can take ten minutes to make out a very slight pink line. Be patient.
Good luck and let us know what happens.

It's possible but unlikely, but you could take the test again. The HCG levels may have been too low for it to register the first time. Take it after the 24th and the subsequent days after if you don't get your period. You will know when it's too late instead of maybe tomorrow. Those symptoms can apply to getting your period as I found out today.

Yes, you could still be pregnant, it may be to early to test, you can however buy a pregnancy test that is used to test 5 days before you expect your period. But a regular pregnancy test is designed to tell you the first day of your missed period. So either wait until the 25 to re-test or go buy a test that test 5 days before your period
Good luck

There is always some chances with false negatives with tests. Especially before your period is due, the tests are much more unreliable. Your sypmtoms sound just right, and false pregnancy is pretty small chance, I think. I've read in magazine, that somtimes we are pregnant but we lose in first two months, and a late, really heavy period is one of these often. Hoping for you!

Good Luck! I'm in the same boat...My period is due Friday (June 23rd). I took a 1st response test and it was negative...I'm still hopeful. Wait until Sunday to retest. I'm waiting until Saturday. This is nerve wrecking!!

Test whenever and however often as you want until you start your period. I had a friend who was three months along before she found out. Every test was negetive for her, until one day.

if a pregnancy test says negative it can be wrong- if a test ways positive it is never wrong, wait a week or so and then try again

yes it may be too soon to tell..... those tests say up to 5 days early but it all depend on implantation........ wait till at least 3 days after your missed period and re-test.
