Prego or Not Prego...That is the question

Since my last post...we have been to the doctor and have got a negative pee test, but later the Dr called and said the blood work showed traces of some hormones that show up when a woman is prego...He said we would be playing the guessing game because of the use of DEPO...My daughter stopped Depo after two injections..Her last one was September 2008 and she was due for another in December 08...we did not get the shot and she did not take the pills correctly...as of now she is not using any method of control....she had a very light peroid on January 5th 09 and to this day we have not seen a peroid yet...I know that coming off Depo can stop and delay peroids but she has so many signs of being prego...she sleeps over 90% of the time, food cravings, nausea and vomitting, bloating, swollen feet, head aches...need i go on???  we will retest again in three weeks...so what will be the verdit...

my opinion is that she goes for an ultra sound to see if shes prego or not because sometimes doctors they be wrong or make another blood test

i hope that it helped you
