Could I be pregnant

I have 2 boys 3&1 I knew with them both that I was pregnant I just had this feeling as silly as it sounds, I'm due on my period in around 8 days I've had unprotected sex a handful of times since my last period. For the past 3 days I've had cramping and backache and I've been going to the toilet often(number2) which is unusual for me and like with my last 2 I just have this feeling that I'm pregnant I did a test yesterday and it was negative but could it just be too early to tell? Thanks

Yup. You need to wait til nearer the day your period is due and test then. No other way to tell.

I had a feeling I was with this one (first pregnancy) but had to wait for a few days after my period due date because the tests were coming up negative. (Also had an ultrasound the day I was due on but for something totally unrelated to make sure i didn't have cancer/cysts.) I'd continue waiting and do one maybe the day before you're due as sometimes it can be picked up then, or just hold out til a few days after. Good luck!

I knew with both my boys. The first I just knew and the second whenever I laid on my side in bed at night I had a weird feeling low in my stomach like there was something there and then within a few days It was confirmed with a test. Best thing to do is wait a few days and test again. I think the first response say that they can detect from 5-6 days before missed period Flowers
