I have heard that signs of preg can be like PMS symptoms. The tiredness, the cramps, sore breasts, etc. I took a HPT 1 week befor period was due and it was neg. Now I am 3 days late and was wondering if the HPT could have been inaccurate then. Also, anyone experience "the period fake-out"? ↓

u take the test on the day(or later)of your period, and it's reliable, believe me!I had pain in my breasts and that was it at the begining, later I had nausea and pain in the lower part of my belly. ↑

yes. pregancy symptoms are very much like pms. you probably took your test a little too early. i took mine 2 days before i was to start my period and it turned pink in like 1 second. so try again if u r late. ↑

The first home test I took came up negative.In fact it took 4 tests before I had the positive result and that was when I was a week late, hormones! ↑
