Pregnancy Info HOME

Hello all! I am new to this board but I have been reading everyone's notes. Wow! My last af was march 28th (I have irregular cycles) and I have taken 3 hpt's and all were neg. I have felt nausea on and off, my nipples are a little sore and I've been bloated and very hungry. I had a little spotting earlier this month but that's all. Any thoughts?

Dee Dee welcome to the board, I am in the same situation as you, my last af was april 8, I took 1 bt and 2 hpt's all neg...I started having irregular cycles lately so I am not sure what is up, I also spotted earlier this month..who knows what is going on

well ladies, the light spotting could have been implantation bleeding..so if you're hoping to fall p/g give it sometime. sometimes just the uterus and linings preparing for menstruation can sometimes cause light spotting. good-luck to all tc

mandy u should go to ur gp and get a blood test done maybe that will put ur mind at ease as blood tests are more reliable that hpt good luck xx

Hi ladies...if you think you're pregnant but testing negative there's a lot of ladies in the same boat in a yahoo chat group. go to www. yahoo.com, click on groups and enter: hcgfn (that's the group name).

hello.. thanks for ur stories, it helped me a lot with my situation right now... here's my story.. My last menstrual period was last Aug 28, '07... Until now (Oct 15), i have no signs that my next period was coming. I took the pregnancy test yesterday (oct 10) but it came out negative. Is it possible that it has false negative result? When should i test again? Is it possible that iam pregnant. My husband and i are trying to conceive..we've been married May of 2005. The symptoms i feel right now is lower back pain and some cramps in my abdomen. What should i do? Wen should i test again? tnx ....

my lmp was aug 9th.i have tested 4x all neg so i also dont know whats going on. i have some preg symptoms,very sick in the morning.is anyone else this tate with neg pt?

bellasmom79 , i guess we're on the same situation... after reading all their experiences, i strongly believe that iam pregnant... just to update all of u... i just went to my doctor yest (oct 15) and she has given me duphaston tablet. Well, as she explained to me, i shld take the tablet 3 days, and after 3 days if may AF did not come, well, its obvious that i am pregnant. This medicine helps to make your pregnancy strong if u are pregnant, but if not, AF will soon come your way. I suggest u go to your doctor and ask him everything.... hope this can help...I'am praying that my "feeling pregnant" will come true! Thanks and Good luck to all of us! God Bless...

bellasmom... im with you. my lp was aug 10 and it was a very light one-- and ive tested 4 times and all have been negative... even though i have so many symptoms that ihad with my first baby... but almost all are menstral too ... i just don't know what to think anymore

Hi ok .. so i was wondering if anyone could help me out... i have not had my period since may and have skipped 2 periods so far.. i have all the symptoms of being pregnant but i have taken 3 at home tests so far and all have came out negtive.. my family is convinced i am pregnant tho and that i need to get a blood test.. wich i do plan on doin .. i was just wanting to know if any one else out there has went threw this or is goin threw this and what the final result is.. i have been reading up alot on other peoples stories and have found some simlar to mine.. where they say it took till they were 3 months along to come up positive and how some blood tests say negative... if i am pregnant i would be about 9 weeks... and belive me i feel it.. im sick, get dizzy,the smell of things make me sick, and i have just about every other preg sign there is! So if anyone can help or give me some info i would be grateful thank you!

It's been 7-weeks, since my last period and I had a negative hpt, so maybe it's stress? I'm telling myself, it's a win-win, because I either got a free month or I'm getting a baby. I know, it's possible to think about pregnancy so much, that you actually GET symptoms. I moved out of my parents, 01/04/08 and had s_x, for the first time, 01/07/08. February 10th, I woke-up and said, "I've been nausous, for two-weeks. I bet, I'm pregnant." I went on-line and there were symptoms, like peeings, a lot and backaches and exhaustion. I was like, "That sounds like me". My OB-GYN had told me, on 12/31/07, I couldn't get pregnant, because my cycles were irregular and I had ovarian cysts, so I decided to see what the big deal was and ended-up pregnant, without even trying, but as much as I wanted to keep it, we couldn't... Well, ever since, I've been really wanting a do-over and every month, I wonder if I am and the more, I think about it, the more nauceaus I become. The last time, onions and bananas made me throw-up (daycare served Funions and Banana Pudding, the afternoon, I found-out, I was pregnant and that night, my boyfriend had a banana and a supreme pizza). So, now, I smell bananas and onions and if I get sick, I take an hpt and ALWAYS, my period starts THAT day. Well, now, it's been 49-days, since my last one and it was only 3-days, last time and I wear black panties, so maybe I have spotted, but I don't know. I saw a bumper sticker on abortion and was offended, because it's not something people take lightly and I had to wait 2-weeks, for one. Now, I really regret it and want a do-over. I hate it, when I see people, like Casey Anthony, whom don't "deserve" kids, when nice people like us, want one, more than anything. The ladies, at work, joke, because I have filled my trunk, with EVERYTHING, possible "baby". Whenever I miss my last one, I shop, for baby stuff, so I'll be ready, next time. And, this other girl, at work, didn't buy anything, 'til after her shower. I'm hoping, this is it! I called the OB and she said, wait another week and if it's been 60-days, since my period, the blood test should show hCg. I'm too young, for menopause, so it's gotta be either stress or a baby! I'm hoping, it's a baby, but either way, I win! : )

hi eytsirhc, You and I are in the same boat. My period is always like clockwork w/ rare exceptions once every few months but never past 2 weeks. I'm on day 49 now and no period yet. Just had physical last thurs which I was rushed to do emergency u/s since dr thought i might have ectopic pregnancy (tender area on one side of my stomach). But it showed nothing, urine is negative, nurse was saying that blood test is probably neg given the last 2 conditions. Lord knows how many sticks that I have peed on and they are all neg. My back is killing me, i am bloated all the time. b___bs sore on and off. I don't think it's in my head. This is somewhat a surprised even though we are trying to make 'accidents' happen ;). I'm seeing my dr on tue to discuss about u/s result (apparently there is a cyst), I'm going to see what he's going to say then Keep in touch and see if both of us can learn from this.

hiya, im new here im nearly 2 months late my last period was the 10 of july 2009, normally i do miss a month but thats normally due to the fact, that my period before it, would be at the end of the month....i did the calculations, around the time i had unprotected s_x (but he did not ejaculate) i was ovalating but today i took a test which came out nagative... the symtoms i have is low cramping like u do with a period, feeling tired, feelin sick, i even wiped food from my mouth and i thought i was going to be sick....i have lost my apet_te slightly, but not dramatically....i normally suffer from bk pain but not this badly, like i cant bend or lie down.... i really duno whats wrong please help.....was my first pregnancy test today... was negative

hey all, i know how u feel... we've been trying TTC for a few months now and i'm 3.5 weeks late! i've done several tests and all negative. im still taking folic acid to be safe. i have a daughter who's 5 now, it wasn't that hard to conceive her. this waiting game is driving me nuts. im saying to myself i am, i feel like i am, have most of symptoms, just missing positive results.. hopefully soon.. i'm gonna hold out to get a blood test, i dont want to think of not being preg!! anyways, i hope some people have some good stories to tell, cos most i'm reading are all negative.. (miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies) TINA== i hope all is ok? how did things go since the 6th?

Hi everyone, Don't give up hope! Here's my story. My husband and I were just doing natural family planning--not having s_x during my fertile period every month, and my cycles were very regular. So one day I didn't check what day it was, and it was definitely into my fertile period. Ooops. I can't say 100% that I didn't suspect that it could be baby time... And then about a week later I bought a half gallon of milk, which is SUPER strange for me, since I don't drink milk, I drink soy milk (not because I'm lactose intolerant or anything, I just don't like the taste of milk). And I drank the whole thing in about three days. SO WEIRD. And then I realized we had s_x during the no-no period, and I started to suspect. So I waited the 10-14 days the tests say you have to wait, and took a whole bunch of tests. I must have taken 8 pregnancy tests over five days! And all of them were negative. A few days later I went into the doctor, just to ask questions and feel better about the whole issue. And he told e, nope, these tests are very reliable this far out and you would definitely know if you were pregnant by now. Lies! LIES! I am TOTALLY PREGNANT!!! Woo hoo! It took another 3.5 weeks for a test to turn up positive (I kept taking them for two reasons: late period, and I JUST KNEW!). Do NOT listen to doctors that say those tests are reliable so soon--every woman's body is different! I read every post I could find on the internet on this subject during that waiting time, and it helped to know that so many women went through similar things. It could take anywhere from 2 months to your entire pregnancy (some people never get a positive hpt, they just don't excrete hcg in their urine). So don't give up! I blame that stupid doctor for the 3-4 drinks I had over the course of 3 weeks. I should have listened to my body! Actually, my husband could tell something was different, but he didn't say anything because he didn't want to get my hopes up. :) And actually, it was mostly just a feeling I had. My b___sts weren't sore or bigger, I didn't feel nauseated or tired, etc. I suppose I did have a sudden aversion to garlic, but that's all. NOW, on the other hand, the morning sickness is pretty bad, and my b___sts are 2 sizes bigger! And I just want to sleep all the time. I'm 8.5 weeks along, and I couldn't be more excited! When I'm not leaning over the toilet, of course. :) Good luck and blessings to all of you! And if you're not pregnant, which is of course possible, just keep trying! A.C.

A.C and mandy, as I read your stories I was so inspired! Though not 7 weeks late yet, I am still writing in hopes that someone can help me and let me know I am not alone. I am now 20 DPO and 6 days late.....I am NEVER late and have always been regular, 26-28 days. I called my OB office to see if I should come in for bloodwork, or give it more time. My doctor wasn't in, I got a call back from the nurse practioner. She doesn't know me and didn't know my charting history and didn't seem to care. ALl she asked was what my urine HPT said... she said I was 39 and if I didn't get a BFP after taking four tests, then I didn't ovulate, and I am prob. infertile, and to stop listening to my non-medical friends encouraging me that I will have a healthy pregnancy, b/c in this business she's seen too many people my age and up have the opposite. I know my window of opportunity is closing in, and I did have a miscarriage 2 months ago, but my doctor said most women do at some point, even if they don't realize it, and that thre is NO reasons to suspect I cannot get pregnant again! No reason given my history, to suspect I cannot carry a baby, not yet. She said to give it 6 months before seeing a specialist, but not longer, b/c I am 39. I was devastated that this nurse on the phone considered me infertile and proceeded to give me the names of fertility specialists she recommended and never even asked if I thought I took the HPTs correctly, or how sure am I that I ovulated when I did, etc. Nothing!! And every time I offered information, like high temps and so many pregnancy signs, she had the same answer for me....I am not pregnant and need to accept it but if I insist on having a blood test to give me peace of mind, then fine. Can you believe it? She too said I should know by now, at 5DPO (yesterday I took test and it was negative)....so why bother coming in for a blood test? I was so hurt by that I couldn't stop crying. All my hopes were dashed in that instant. When I called a frined who's had several healthy pregnancies at my age and into her 40s, she said that woman made her so angry, and she should be reported and suspended. I called the doctor's office back asking to have my doctor call me personally when she comes in the next day, that I wanted to hear this diagnosis from MY doctor personally. I tried telling the nurse that I've been charting..I KNOW I ovulated...I KNOW when hubby and I were together and my temps continue to rise, as high as when I was pregnant before. I have nausia (not experienced with last pregnancy), headahces, cramping (light this time, moderate last time to where I needed to use a heating pad often, this time I don't), twinges on either side (also new), famished in AM, so very tired all of the time (before I was always extra energetic, never felt so tired for so many days). I am also congested, constipated some days, frequently urinating some days and very moody and cry way too easily and often. Today I woke up feleing slight nausia again, headache, moody and bloated with congestions and wet CM, as usual. It's either creamy or wet. Temp was a bit lower yesterday but climbing back up again. Temps never have gone above above 98.6F unless pregnant. I've been at 98.8-99.0 most of my Luteal phase so far. I've had most of these symptoms since DPO5-6... My dr said even if I didn't ovulate I'd still get bleeding. AF is NOWHERE in sight. Ladies, I really feel like I'm pregnant, and I resent a medical professional telling me there is something wrong with me when she didn't even examine me. There are too many postings of women who never got BFPs and turned up pregnant many weeks later. She never considered this!!! Why do I read of some women who had first pregnancy show a BFP before or on day of expected period, yet with 2nd or 3rd pregnancy, never to even get a BFP until 12 weeks, 16 weeks or never! And some even turned out to be carrying twins! This would be my dream, as I am a twin and my chances are VERY high. Any encouragement would be so appreciated. I am a strong believer in GOD and have great faith...I know GOD is never late and I would welcome AF so I can try again, so if I get my period this is OK! I just got married in June, we started in July and got pregnant during my August cycle...we NEVER thought I'd end up pregnant so soon. My ovulation software is TELLING me I'm pregnant!!!! Thanks for letting me vent, everyone!
