Pregnancy Info HOME

I know this is not mental because I am not trying to get pregnant. Thanks again

If you just stopped b___stfeeding it can take your body a little while to get back to normal with your your periods. Most women cannot get pregnant while b___stfeeding because the hormones the body produces to keep you from ovulating. But that is "most" women. There is always a possibility. It sounds like you are doing the right thing with getting the tests done. Your mind can also play tricks on you when you are really scared about something also. I have had weird menstrual cycles all my life and there were a few times when I was younger I thought I could of been pregnant and at that time I thought I had the symptoms also. If you keep getting a - hpt and the blood test is also for more than three weeks then most likely you are not pregnant. Some women have gotten neg hpt with an ectopic but the blood test will usually show something even if slightly elevated. Hope that helps. Also, a lot of women get sore b___sts around their period. Having to pee a lot does not usually start until past 8-10 weeks and the enlarged uterus groes noticable after that time as well. So if you were that far along you should be having a pos. test by now.

Thank you for answering my question.My period never stoped when I was b___stfeeding. I had a normal period( every 28 days). I was using the premature formula with b___stfeeding because my baby was early. After i stopped b___stfeeding my periods was the same until Jan. I am always regular. Now my periods are shorter with no blood going on the pad( sorry tmi) I only see blood when I wipe and then a few days later spotting. My b___st had went down to regular size and they are two cups larger. My nipples show through my shirt.

Sorry about that. My computer wouldn't let me finish typing. I have vein all over my chest, I feel sick to my stomach,thick discharge, lower back pain, and I feel the like when I was pregnant before. I'm 29 years and have all this going on. I didn't care must about my abnormal periods until I started to pee alot and nausea kicked in. I just thought I would give you more details. I feel like I'm losing it.

How far along do you suspect yourself to be? It certainly sounds as if you are indeed pregnant with all the symptoms you list. Did you spot with your other pregnancy? Some women still have their period while pregnant. It sounds like you need to find what is going on. You need to be very frank with the doctor and tell him everything you have said here so they take you seriously. If that doctor gives you no help then I would suggest to seek a second opinion, or third for that matter if not at least to ease your mind. It is possible to have negative hpt test if you are not far along enough yet for it to pick up the pregnancy hormone. A blood test, however, will pick up on any HCG in blood even in the smallest amount. I will tell you this though, there have been some doc_mented cases where women believe so strongly they are pregnant that they actually get all the pregnancy symptoms and that includes the abdomen getting bigger and swelling to the point where anyone looking at them thought they were pregnant as well. One thing to tell you for sure if you are pregnant is an ultrasound. If you have all those symptoms then you should be far along enough to see an embryo or fetus. Then at least you can see with your own eyes if you are not and can convince yourself psychologically. And if you are then at least you would know your mind is not playing tricks on you. Please keep me posted and if you have any more questions I would be happy to help, if this does, I hope so.I know going to the doctor can leave you with more questions sometimes then when you first went in. It can be quite confusing to those not in the medical field, and also for those who are as well at times. I wish the best luck for you on whatever you are hoping for. I will keep you in my thoughts.

Boy, I wish all the people in the medical field is like you. You are a blessing.I know there is some women who would imagine they are pregnant. But in my case that is not possible. I didn't have pregnancy in my head. I thought maybe my period would go back to normal. So I told myself to give it two months. Well two months went pa__s and my period is still light. I started to have twingles and nausea in feb, which never went away.My stomach started to poke out and i worked out more. But my enlarged stomach is still there, I tried to get "this" out of my head and I keep getting a new sign. It all remind me of pregnancy. I have tried everything possible to not think about this. To be honest, I prefer not to be pregnant because I just had a baby. At one point, I labeled it as a tumor in my uterus until I spoke to my mom and sister. They both had period like bleeding in their pregnant. My sister said she also got neg. tests until 5 months along. Her comment made me more confused. My last pregnancy I had spotting until 4 months along. I think a u/s would be best. I am afraid that everyone is going to think have have lost it. Thanks for being so understanding and I will take your advice. Bless You
