According to the negative pregnancy tests you've taken, it seems that you are not pregnant. I was wondering if you and your husband ever asked for medical help about infertility in 8 years, or not? If not, you can get educated about the how's and why's of possible infertility by going (both you and your husband) to visit a gynecologist. Several examinations have to be performed (spermogram, vaginal ultrasound, hormonal analyses, HSG etc.) before any answers will become clear.
