Is Pregnancy Possible Even After Having Negative HPT?

Hello, My name is Megan. I need some advice. My last MP was December 23,2013. I'm usually regular give or take a day or two. I was supposed to start my period January 20th. I still haven't started and I have never been this late! The last time I was this late I was pregnant. I took 6 at home pregnancy tests and they are all negative. My breasts are very tender especially the nipple area and the outer sides. My appetite has increased dramatically and I have the pulling/pressure feeling in my lower abdominal area around the same time every night. My urine output has also increased but I have also been drinking a lot of water lately. I am not taking any medications or have not been under any stress that would cause it to be late. My question is: even though I have had negative pregnancy tests, could I still be pregnant? Please let me know what you think. I appreciate any advice :) Thank you in advance!

Welcome to HCM.
Your symptoms are suggestive of pregnancy.
Have you history of unprotected sex during fertile period..??
Sometime urine pregnancy test may show negative result.(false negative).
Repeat this test after 10th day of missing cycle.
Otherwise confirm it by blood hcg level and ultrasonography.
Consult your gynecologist for local examination to confirm the pregnancy.
