Answer
If you had a period on December 29, you were due for your next period around January 25. If a pregnancy test was negative after February 1, you are not pregnant, even if you did not start your period until February 7. If you repeated the pregnancy test on February 19, and it was, again, negative, you are definitely not pregnant and do not  have to repeat the pregnancy test again. Just keep a careful record of the first day of your period, each month. Sometimes a period can be late due to hormonal imbalance and, as long as the pregnancy test is negative, you need not worry.
