Could I be Pregnant... Desperately trying to conceive!

Hi all, Im in a long term relationship and we decided we wanted to start trying last year. I came off all of my contraception on 28 December 2016, and so for the year I have taken nothing, I've been tracking ovulation and trying all year. Each month my period has been like clockwork until December where instead of my normal cycle I was 4 days last and only bled for 2 days. This month I've been still trying and my period is now 7 days late but I did take a cheap home test after 1 day late and it was negative. Ive never completely missed a period and I don't know if I'm just going crazy and imagining the symptoms but I do feel like I have had symptoms. I have had terrible head aches, insomnia, fatigue, feeling nauseous, but today Ive had some cramping (although it does not feel like it usually would) which is making me think maybe my period is on its way :( ... should I take another home pregnancy test? I have read a lot about the cheap home tests being rubbish and giving false results... has this happened to anyone before?

Have you tried a First Response? They are really accurate and really sensitive.

Hi, I think it is unlikely that you are as a test would have given you a positive by now. I know with some people it can take a while, but I think that's rare. I think also a lot of the time it's easy to think we have symptoms when overthinking it and a lot of symptoms are similar to premenstrual. But I agree with above poster to take a first response as they are the most sensitive.

No have not tried first response, I was thinking of testing again over the weekend if period doesn't show up so ill get one of those thanks.

I tested on the first day my period was due so I was thinking (hoping) that maybe that was too early to test. have not tested since but I'm going crazy !!

It's still possible then if you haven't tested since then as you could have ovulated later than you thought. I'd do another test and it doesn't have to be first morning urine at 7 days late.
