  So I would like to start off with saying my periods are very regular. Always on time. And now I'm about 6 days late. I track everything on my ovulation calandar. My boyfriend and I are not trying to have a baby but we don't use protection. We would be happy wither way. So I have a few pregnancy signs. About 2 weeks ago I felt like I was getting a stomach bug. Diarrhea, horrible stomach cramps, horrible heartburn. Following that after a couple days I then started feeling like I had a kidney infection. I had horrible cramps on my right side. And I also had an urgency to urinate. But I've had a uti before and I didn't have the burning or foul oder it would normally have. This all went away in a few days. I still have diarrhea once in a while. And I now I have HORRIBLE gas. Sometimes it hurts most of the time it's just air. Tmi I know! I've also had period like cramps but not one drop of blood has come out. Now yesterday I went to the bathroom and a horribly disgusting long white stringy thing came out! So gross, I've never seen anything like it! I have taken several pregnancy tests all negative except one that I took 2 days ago and it turned faintly positive almost immediately but within 5 mins disappeared. I'm so confused. Last night I also felt this pulsating feeling on the left side of my uterus. Didn't hurt, kind of tickled. As for today I've only had period like cramps with no blood. Slightly crampy in my lower back as well which is new. Still no blood. Advice anyone? Sorry for the novel like post!

  I forgot to mention my breasts have been sore. It comes and goes but some days they hurt so bad I cold cry. Then the next day they will only be slightly sore.

  If you believe you have pregnancy symptoms, you will have enough HCG to turn a test. Take one and see if it is a BFP or BFN. Another thing about the periods being regular. There are many factors that can cause a person to be irregular and our bodies can change any any given cycle, unless you are temping you will not know when you ovulated.

  Take a test and that should give you your answer, the forums here don't symptom spot and we can't tell you if you are pregnant or not.

  I have taken several rests. One came back positive immediately but turn negative after a few mins. All the rest have been negative.

  If you consistently are receiving BFNs, then you aren't pregnant and are most likely seeing these symptoms due to AF on her way. PMS symptoms and early pregnancy symptoms are pretty much the same. I am not sure what you wanted to hear from us if you have taken tests though.

  I know I'm just at a loss because they've been negative. I haven't been stressed at all no increase in physical activity and no weight gain or loss. All my tests are negative. Except one that was positive within seconds then turned negative after a few mins.

  Nothing you posted matters, only a pregnancy test matters and those were negative. Good luck and sorry about your bad gas.

  Really just other people's experiences. That's all. If anyone has experienced negative tests like I have and really ended up being pregnant or not.

  Honestly if you're having this hard of a time with the fact that you're obviously not pregnant (as multiple tests are negative) then make a Drs appointment. Not a single person on the entire internet is going to be able to tell you if you're pregnant.

  Honestly, this is pretty dangerous to ask us for advice because you want us to tell you something that might not be true. I understand that TTC is hard and I am on the same boat but you should trust those subsequent tests. You can however, wait a few days and test again if you'd like.

  Can't get into the doctor until next week. I'm really in tune with my body and it just doesn't feel right. I apologize if my post bothers people. I'm really just curious. I would be happy either way. Just trying to get some answers from people that may have gone through the same thing.

  Negative test = not pregnant.  If you STILL don't want to believe that, then get a digital test, those are clear.

  The one "brief positive test" that you described still sounds negative, most tests will show a faint positive and then disappears as the control line shows up.  That's why you are not supposed to read the test right away.  FRER tests, for example, are supposed to be read something like 3 minutes - 10 minutes.  Google evap lines.
  
  No other person's experiences are going to tell you any more information about your body.
  
  We cannot tell you if you are pregnant.  Actually, it's against the TOU to even ask.

  I'm not asking anyone to tell me if I'm pregnant or not. That's not what I'm getting at. Just want experiences. Didn't realize you couldn't talk about stuff like this on a pregnancy forum.

  Wait a week, talk to the dr. How are strangers going to be more "in tune" to your body than you are? Not trying to be rude but every woman and every pregnancy are different.

  The title of your post is "Am I pregnant?" The 3 day waiting period before posting is for you to lurk and learn the rules and feel of the boards. Your post is absolutely against the rules.

  Okay, so normally I stay pretty nice on these kinds of posts but I am a little confused why you said you are not asking us if you are pregnant yet the subject of your post is "Am I pregnant". Yes this is a pregnancy forum, where we talk about pregnancy related things but symptom spotting and wanting people to confirm what you believe are pregnancy symptoms is DANGEROUS. What would it achieve if we all echoed "Yes you are pregnant!"? That will just make it that much harder to recover and try again. 

  
  

  Trust me, having people tell you the blunt truth is good for you when you start to go crazy thinking you are pregnancy because of the way you feel even after BFNs. It makes recovering for the next cycle that much easier.

  There are plenty of other forums that are willing to PLAY ALONG, but be careful if it doesn't happen. Good luck however, and if you do decide to stick around you will find that the women here are all about science and less about making sure everyone is not offended.
