I am gonna be honest with both my pregnancies with my son and now this one I never took prenatals...with my two miscarriage I did and I found out that my body cannot handle prenatal vitamins and thats why i miscarried...I produce a lot of iron on my own and the iron in the prenatals pushed my body over bored causing me to miscarry...I know a lot of people dont believe me but if you read you are 5x more likely to miscarry with too much iron than with low iron...this is just me...but if your body can handle prenatals I would def take them...they have many over the counter ones

Your doctor didn't do a blood test right away? Like in the early Weeks of finding out your pregnant. Or did you just find out recently?

He used yhe doppler thing 4 - 5 weeks ago. No heart beat he said.. but it was way to early
Then the next day we took a pee test came back - but then we went in yeaterday and he couldn't feel where baby was..  but my tummy is fat and ive put on 30 lbs.
Haven't had my cycle in 3-4 months now... and i've heard of stories where the doctor i have doesn't really take care or even keep up with his patients.. iM in british columbia

Sounds like maybe your not pregnant. But you should get a blood test & ultrasound done to be sure.

If your 16 Weeks then 4 to 5 Weeks ago you shoulda been able to hear the heart best. I first heard my babies at 11 weeks

I agree...I heard my babies heartbeat at 8weeks.  If you were pregnant the pee test would have came back positive by now...hopefully you get your answers soon or find another doctor.

Your doctor isn't a very good one if it wasn't the FIRST thing he did running a blood test on you, if he thought you were pregnant. If he thought you were pregnant he should've given you a pee test, then blood if he thought that was off, a repeat if necessary, then an u/s, and then the H/B. I can't imagine him listening for a H/B of something he doesn't even know is there. There's such thing as a phantom pregnancy, where your body tricks you into thinking you're pregnant, give you symptoms, all sorts of things. At 16 weeks, it's not too early to see a full baby, hear a H/B, etc.

You keep saying the tests are negative..you know negative means not pregnant? Or do you mean they are positive?
