Hello ma'am and welcome.

Tender breasts could be due to a hormonal imbalance as well, so we cannot fixate only on pregnancy. But yes, your test was early and some women do not return a positive result to pregnancy tests up until 3 months into pregnancy. So it would be wise to wait a while and retest using an early morning urine sample when your period has been delayed (if). You could also visit a doctor for a serum test if you wish to accurately confirm pregnancy.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
