I think I might be called crazy

I have a 14 month old son.. For the past few months I've had pregnancy symptoms but period was only late once and all test came back negitive.

Here is the part where I will be called crazy. For the last three days I've sworn I felt movement. Like early movement where is happens and you kind of question yourself on if you have actually felt something or not. Then once it happened twice in a row. I've tried feeling around on my stomach ( I'm quite thin, not over weight at all that's why I feel crazy) and its hard like abs but I don't feel what I remember with my son. Like I have awful back pain but that's about it. It's happened 3 days in a row and I'm afraid to go to the doctor because I know they are going to think I am crazy.

It also could be if you keep thinking about it you can also make your body give you signs of pregnancy. I've had it before around the same time after my first born.

I know I keep posting on this one but I woke up experiencing the movements still with severe back pain. Kinda feels like back labor where the pain is a shooting pain that goes from mid back down my butt.

I took all the test with first morning urine. I wouldn't think I was pregnant if I didn't feel the feeling in my stomach. With my son I had positive test at 3 weeks. So when I tested and they were all negative. Even tested like two weeks ago I knew I wasn't I have bad back pain. And I'm usually tired and I'll go through times of feeling sick but I honestly don't see how I can be pregnant with no positives and the bleeding.

My mom went into preterm labor with me at 6 months and didn't even know she was pregnant and I was her third. She had monthly bleeding and said she had a flat stomach. As do I mostly... She is my only reason for concern.

My boyfriend and I are careful. We use perfection now.. But in August and September we didn't but a few times..

well you need to make sure your using first morning wee, alot of women have bleeding around the time that there periods are due, when pregnant, its usually abit different to their normal periods but they will mistake it as just an unusually short or light period, , I have heard of some women having this type of bleed right thru there pregnancy and havent realised they were pregnant until they were into there second and third trimester, so its definatley a possibility, for some reason hpt dont pick the pregnancy up either, its uncommon but it does happen, I would either retest or go to your doctors and have bloods done, this should show up, although I also know of a lady who had neg blood and urine tests even up until 3 months and they only realised she was pregnant when they sent her for a scan

you most def could be pregnant and with subsequent babies you can feel them earlier, I've felt alot of mine by 16 weeks, I would race and get a hpt if it were me, I wouldnt be able to wait another minute, if its pos you should be seen quite quickly to acsertain dates etc

I still feel the "movements" they seem to become more noticeable each day. Actually feel it now while doing stuff.. I'm not thinking I'm pregant because I know that I just couldn't be... Plus I'm just confused..

I've decided that I will keep up with if it happens if it continue to happen every day for the next week I will then make an appointment to get checked out. It just seems crazy to me because I had my son in October 2010 and didn't have sex till August 2011 so if I am I couldn't be at most four months-four 1/2 months and I didn't feel my son till like 19 weeks.

Have you been checked for IBS? Sometimes I feel 'flutterings' due to it. I only got it after having my son, which is apparently quite common. Worth exploring every avenue I think...good luck to you x

I've had a child before. I know that you can not have a period. A period is caused by the lining in your uterus shedding. So yes I am aware you can not have a period. On the other hand you CAN bleed ever month and still be pregnant. Most women mistake it as their period. As did my mother when she was pregnant with me.

Women do not have periods while pregnant, they are physically impossible. To have a true period while pregnant would mean you miscarry the baby. It doesn't matter how it might look, your doctor has seen far more. Many things can mimic fetal movement, and should be checked out.

I've had what I call haunting kicks since my son maybe once very few months. But this just started the last three days and is pretty frequent,, it's quite annoying lol.

Screw the I didn't know I was pregnant show because it makes us all what if a lot more now.

Its hard to know for sure, its really easy to "feel" movement... i kept feeling the same kinda feeling in the same area and it had me second guessing as well... i wasnt prego but it did scare me and it was pretty clear how easy a person can feel phantom kicks as well as think they feel the baby really early in the pregnancy just because they are focusing on it... im not saying your not prego but im saying even if your not i completely understand how easy it is to think you can be... so your not crazy :)

My mom had one with me and she went into preterm labor at 6 months and that's how we found out.. I just guess don't want to feel like an idiot, I decided if in a few days I continue to feel the fetal like movement I'll be going to the hospital as I do not have medical

If u don't want them to call u crazy tell them u had a position home pregnancy test and request an hcg level be taken to confirm. Its very possible to be pregnant and still have a period a good friend of mine had hers til she was 17 weeks and the only thing that made her test was she was feeling movement. Its better u get checked out than not just on case.
