How Can Pregnancy Be Confirmed?

I can t tell if I m pregnant or not. My period was 5 days late. I took a pregnancy test on day 4 and it was negative. The next day I got what I thought was my period, but the flow isn t like normal. I also noticed that my breasts are larger in size, I m have much more bloating and abdominal pain than my normal period, and my back hurts significantly more than normal when I m on my period.

A negative Pregnancy test does not rule out Pregnancy especially in the 1st week after a delayed period. Repeat Urine Pregnancy test after 1 week or you can get an Ultrasound to confirm Pregnancy.
