can a girl be pregnant, have most of the symptoms, but still have a negative home test and monthly periods?

Question

I've been showing several signs of pregnancy, the most important ones except my home tests come out negative every time. i still have my periods but they are much shorter with less bleeding. i want to be pregnant so if i were it would be great. every time my home test is negative i get discouraged. i have cravings, fatigue, mood swings, breast tenderness, weight gain, nausea, constant urination but the home test is still negative. what's going on?

OK it could be one of 2 options;

1- It could be that you are so desperate to have a baby that you are wanting these symptoms (as this would mean that you are pregnant) so your body is acting out you thoughts and feeling.

                                                OR

2- You are pregnant but it is too early to tell or there was something wrong with the test. 

Your best bet is to go to the doctors and get a blood test as it is the most accurate out of every other test. I hope it is positive, i truly feel for you, me and my husband have been trying for 3 years with no luck. I hope you are though. Best of luck.

it could be your mind playing tricks on you because of the fact you do want to be pregnant!! it happened to me several times but all tests were negative and i wasnt pregnant!! you may want to get a blood test honey from a dr that will let you know for sure one way or the other!! there is always the chance you are from your symptoms and the test could still be negative!! it could be other things to so i would advise a visit to the dr to be sure!! wishing  you the best of luck! if your not this time try to relax and not worry to much and let nature take over!!!

This happened to me years ago i had all the symptoms of being pregnant EVEN got a positive on a HPT, dr's thought i was pregnant but when they did the blood test it came up negative so they redid the urine test and it was negative thhe dr's explained this as a phantom pregnancy its when your body "thinks and acts" like you are pregnant even when you are not. Very odd i know i was very sceptical and did about 20 HPT but all came back negative and everything went back to normal within a few weeks.

Negative home tests mean 'no preganancy'.
All the symptoms you feel are probably related to your desire to conceive.
The first symptom of pregnancy is a missed period. You have to wait a few days after you miss a period and then get the test done.

I would suggest you to see a doctor and do a blood test.  
But frankly speaking, I personally think that the chance of you getting pregnant is slim as your hormones level detected are low.

I did. I have been given pregnant on the third day of my era yet regrettably miscarried at 5 weeks. particular it may ensue no longer in basic terms for the time of your era yet at each time so if your no longer wanting a toddler extra advantageous be employing delivery administration.
