I have missed my period 3 months in a row almost 4, I eat more, I have cravings, I have some minor vaginal dicharge, I have sore gums and a tooth ache, I get nausea in the morning and sometimes at night, my stomach has been feeling weird, I just feel like I am having all the right signs that say I AM pregnant but all the tests (home and blood) say that I am NOT pregnant. Could these tests be wrong? How can I tell if I am really pregnant or not if I am having all of these symptoms but the tests say NO?

blood tests can not be wrong.. it is the most accurate way of finidng out whether you are or not.

very rare but it can be wrong. there are two types of blood test. one that gives you a yes or no answer and one that gives you the amount of HCG hormone in your blood. Below the level five is not pregnant, 6 and up is a possible early pregnancy. If you had a negative blood test, you should ask for an Ultra sound, It would show if there is a baby in there. Good luck!
