Possible, not likely: U took the pregnancy test 12 days after your MP started. My understanding is that u r supposed to wait 2 weeks (14 days) but 2 days may not make that much of a difference. It also seems like u were not in the fertile period when u had intercourse (however, u can't trust the cycle 100%). Pregnancy tests have a (low) false neg rate but can b wrong; u can check again in 2-4 days to put ur mind @ ease

No: Test was negative and you had your period.
