Am I still pregnant?

[ftwabe2010]

I took 2 pregnancy tests, two days apart the week before Thanksgiving and they came back positive.  A few days after I was supposed to start my period, I started bleeding.  It wasn't as heavy as a normal period, but it was definitely more than just spotting.  Anyway, I took another pregnancy test and it came back negative.  Since then, my body still isn't back to normal.  I have no appetite, I'm always tired and I get nauseous every once in a while.  Even though my test read negative, is there any possibility I'm still pregnant?

I am so sorry it's a sad time for you.  I understand, as I have been there myself.  But, hey, at least you know your body CAN get pregnant!  That is what kept me positive when we were trying.  And, when you are ready to really try, as this one you said wasn't planned, you can be sure that you'll eventually succeed! :-)  Best wishes to you, and I am glad you are doing better.

I have an ultrasound scheduled for Tuesday, just to be on the safe side.  Thank you for all the support!  The pregnancy wasn't planned, but I started getting very excited about the idea of being a mother.  It was devastating, to say the least, when that 3rd test read negative.  I still have trouble with it every once in a while, but doing much better.

I am also TTC but i don't have any idea about chemical pregnancy. I think you should go for beta blood test it will help you to confirm pregnancy.

I agree with angela418, with my chemical pregnancy I took a test on a Friday and the following Tuesday I started spotting a then became a little heavier.  The next day it was confirmed by a doc and another pregnancy test that was negative.  Mine happened just this past Sept and we are still TTC for #4.  It will happen for you.  Good luck and keep up the faith!

Sounds like a chemical pregnancy to me.  When I had one, I had taken a positive test, then 6 days later my period started.  I wasn't sure what it was, but went to the OB/GYN who confirmed it was a chemical pregnancy.  Basically the egg and sperm met but didn't implant, so there was a hormone spike long enough to get a positive test that day.  I had also taken another test the day before my period which was negative.  Also, that was a really messed up cycle for me too..it was 54 days long and typically my cycles are 32-35 days long, so it was messed up to begin with!  

I wish you the best of luck & don't give up if you are TTC, because it can still happen..I got pregnant 4 cycles later and my baby is turning one tomorrow!  I am now 3 months pregnant w/ #2!

You'll have to go to the doc and get your levels check to see if you had a miscarriage!!
