Do Tender Breasts And Excessive Sleep Indicate Pregnancy?

I am trying for a baby. My period is 4 days late. My usual cycle length is 26 days. I took a dip stick pregnancy test which showed an incredibly faint positive. I bought a digital pregnancy test and it came back negative. I have tender breasts and am sleeping a lot. Could I be pregnant? My period is never late usually.

Hi. Missing a period is one of a positive signs that you might be pregnant.

During pregnancy your breasts grow, so they are likely to become sensitive and tender. And it is the most common symptoms of pregnancy. It usually starts around week 4 to week 7.

During pregnancy you tend to sleep for extra hours. This could be due to the hormonal changes taking place. This usually happens during the first trimester.

If you take home pregnancy test and it shows a faint positive line, there is a possibility that you are pregnant. A faint positive is caused by low levels of HCG hormone (human chorionic gonadotropin). You should wait for another 5-7 days and repeat the test.
