Test confusion HELP

in 1st Trimester
Hey all! According to my period tracker, I am 19 DPO. I have taken a few at home tests and they have faint lines, however I’ve taken 2 digital clear blue tests that both said “Not Pregnant” my period is now 5 days late, Boobs are sore, cramping, dizziness, heartburn, gassy (lol)…. Any ways, has this happened to anyone else? I don’t want to get my hopes up but I do think I am pregnant. Just hope it isn’t a chemical pregnancy.
My husband and I are visiting home this coming weekend for the first time in 3 years and I would love to tell close friends and family in person but worried I’m getting ahead of myself

    Your period may be later than expected. Keep testing and if you don't get a positive or your period in 60 says, call your doctor.

    Stress and sickness can delay ovulation sometimes—do you track fertility signs with your period tracker (like cervical fluid, temperature)?

    That said, multiple pregnancy tests shouldn’t show faint lines if there’s no reason; HCG is only around when you’re pregnant (or just had a baby)! There’s always the possibility of defective tests or one test being more sensitive than another, so I’d call your doc for confirmation. :)
