Pregnancy Symptoms but tests negative
by amandalynn52403, Jul 13, 2006 12:00AM
I am having some symptoms of being pregnant(weight gain, breast swelling and tenderness, mood swings) but I have taken several tests that show negative. Also, for the last 2 months my periods have been at least 4 days late and really light, and I am having discharge throughout the month. I was diagnosed with endometriosis about 3 years ago, but since my surgery none of the dr's have been concerned. I did have abnormal cells show up on a pap, but the biopsy turned out ok. I'm not sure what the problem is, and I have sceduled an appt, but is there anything I can do until then?

you probably have period symptoms if HPT is negative.
For the past month and a half I have been experiancing pregnancy symptoms. Fatigue, nausea, frequent urination, and headache. All of a sudden my vison is starting to change. I usually have 20/20 now I cant read things that are far away.And lets not leave out the biggest part!! I work out alot and over the past week my lower belly has become 'bloated'.I have not made any changes to my normal eating habits, and over the past 4 days I cant button my pants anymore.But I havent missed my period. I took two pregnancy test, they both had negative results.
Please Help Me I am Freaking OUT!!!
Thank you
I have had two pregnancy test both negative, you see I had a miscarriage last month, and was meant to have my period a week ago, but I didnt. I am urinating frequently, mood swings, breast tendernes, headache and sometimes back ache I don't understand what is happening. Any advice
I have also experience pregnancy symptoms for the past few months, however I've always had irregular periods, and sometimes I miss a month or two. I've been dizzy, nausea, moody, and I can not close my pants anymore. I've taken three different pregnancy home test and show negative. I feel something moving inside, and sometimes get that soft going down the uterus pain. I've being pregnant three times and all this symptoms (although, each pregnancy is different) they all very familiar to me. I don't have a doctor, and no insurance, don't know what to do or where to go. Any advise?

Good Luck!
I have a Drs appointment tomorrow and will have a blood test then. What a bummer if we're not.
it's been i guess a month and a half since i THINK i may have gotten pregnant. ive always been around 120 and if i ever gained any weight it was five pounds and i could get rid of it without any trouble. well over over the course of october i noticed i was increasingly more and more hungry. i used to be satisfied with eating once or twice a day and now it seems like im constantly hungry. i gained about 15 pounds in four weeks, which to me is a shockingly short amount of time to gain so much weight. my abdomen potrudes out and is hard not flabby feeling. my breasts are tender similar to everyone else not to mention they've gotten massive! haha. pants that use to fit loosely i find myself FORCING on now-a-days. i feel naseous when i smell certain smells. i am constantly tired.
the reason im so perplexed is because i took a pregnancy test in mid october right when i first started notcing my abdomen changing shape and the result was negative. so i just started dieting and excercising. well around the beginning of november i had seen absolutely NO results and my abdomen had gotten bigger. so i took yet another test that was also negative. i had my period in october but it was only a few days and im two days late now. im really frustrated and confused and to embarrassed to go to a doctor and have them just tell me im fat! haha.
are these symptoms similar to anyone else? ive never been pregnant before so im not sure if im just being paranoid about gaining weight.
thanks!
Thanks!
It seems everyone is posting their stories, but hardly anyone lets us know if they were pregnant or not! Don't forget to tell us your news, lets try to help each other by leaving follow up (even if we didn't get a positive result.) It really will help people through the tough waiting period.
Here's what happened to me (I hope it will help someone) I had sex 4 days before I ovulated (I had cramps so I knew) 4 days later I spotted a light red/pink blood for around a day (not enough to warrant using a TP or towel, I only noticed when I went to the toilet) It was too early and too light to be my period so I prayed to God it was implantation bleeding (my husband is near sterile and after 6 failed ICSI's and 9 years of infertility = I didn't hold out an ounce of hope.) over the next few days my breasts started to feel very heavy and swollen (like they were bruised) my nipples did not hurt or enlarge, nor did they change colour. I also passed out/fainted halfway through the day on day 26 of my cycle, I also had slight 'sicky' feelings, I also had hunger pains all day everyday, I'm a size 2 and don't eat that much so that was unusual, my other symptoms were: weird moods, sometimes I'd cry for no reason or feel elated for no reason and my mood could change from one to the other in a matter of seconds, I also 'felt' pregnant and kept dreaming of cots, my need to wee more started on day 29 of my cycle (I have a regular as clockwork 32 day cycle) By this time I was secretly thinking "O.H M.Y G.O.D... we've done it, we're pregnant" but in the next breath I was telling myself "Don't be stupid, the doctors told you have more chance of winning the lottery than conceiving naturally) So I waited in total anguish for my AF to arrive, day 32 came and went.... nothing... no bleeding, just slight cramps in my lower back and a 'tight' feeling in my lower tummy (no bloating, just tight) so on day 33, 1 day after my missed bleed I took a 'clear blue' early detector test, it was (as I feared) negative, my husband and I sat together holding that test willing it to turn into two blue lines for over 15 mins, when it didn't we just held each other and cried (you never give up hope you see, even when there isn't any to begin with, you always pray for a miracle) So I just carried on with my life for the next week, but I still had this 'niggly' feeling that I was pregnant, the symptoms were all still there and my AF had still not arrived - so I took another test - negative again! I kept telling myself "why are you torturing yourself like this - you're not pregnant - it's not possible" even so I bought a pack of 15 tests and tested every other day for the next 12 days, all negative.
A day before my next AF was due I passed out again, I woke up shocked to find I was in the hospital (I'd been out for half and hour due to low blood pressure) I told the doctors about my concerns over my missed period so they took me for a scan to see if they could see any abnormalities...
I didn't look at the screen as I was scared of what I'd see (I'd imagined some cancer or tumor)
Take a look at your new baby said the doctor... there on the screen as clear as day was a little sack with my longed for baby tucked neatly and safely inside... I cried and cried with happiness and could barely tell my husband the news through my tears - we had been given a miracle. I am now 4 months pregnant and our little girl is doing well and my pregnancy has been like clockwork.
So basically I was almost two months pregnant and still getting a negative test result on one of the best home tests available. So my advice would be... don't trust them 100% go and see your doctor and get a blood test, and YES you most definitely can still be pregnant with a negative test - I an d my unborn daughter are living proof of it.
Good luck everyone - miracles really do happen :)
I, too, have been experiencing the same issues as everyone else as far as the HPTs are concerned. So far I've taken 14 (I should have stopped at 3, but I'm compulsive) and all have been negative and yet I'm without my period for 2 months. I had VERY slight bleeding a few weeks ago and the only thing I can think of is it was implantation bleeding. I was pregnant before and had all the symptoms...breast tenderness, swelling, cramping, nausea, etc...but unfortunately I miscarried. This time, however, I'm not sure I'm pregnant. The breast tenderness comes and goes. I get cramps here and there, but it's nothing like when I was pregnant before. I suppose what I should do now is go to the doctor and get blood drawn.
I'm so glad I stumbled on this forum!! :)
I've had 2 babies and trying for third. With the first, it was first shot, bright red positive, the very first day my period was due. With the second, 8 mos of ttc, 1 miscarriage at 6.5 weeks, 1 late period (& broken heart) at 5 weeks.. I almost started to believe I can never get pregnant again and then we did. This time around (maybe becos I'm generally not so stressed any longer) in the first month of trying (and we said, no forcing, let us let it happen whenever.. becos I don't mind a longer gap between the 2nd and 3rd) but here we are! I'm late by 6 days, and 5 weeks and no signs of period. Very very hopeful signs of elevated progesterone (boobs tender, but not so much, just like I was with my II pregnancy; exhausted like I'd been ploughing all day or something like that, only on some days - this particular one, I only ONLY EXPERIENCED during 'real' pregnancies; I could 'sense' my uterus being busy or feeling different like when I'm gasy; and really really achy on my right pelvis area, sciatic pain along my right leg, and bad low back pain.. sometimes, even like the pains I get during mestruation! Now this one, I would have suspected except that I had the EXACT same pains with my II pregnancy even before I found out we were pregnant.
Hence the hopes. Yet still testing negative.
Another poster had mentioned it would be nice if people came pack to post if they in fact tested positive (home tests or thro the doc)
I have to make a mental note to do that myself. Becos, we all seem to flock here to find strength and hope during the horrible waiting time, but I tend to forget once we are at the point we hope to reach soon - to come back and to let the rest of us know.
THE WEEK OF, I FELT VERY EMOTIONAL AND CRIED OVER EVERYTHING AND HAD CRAMPS AND BACK PAIN FOR ABOUT 3DAYS, I SWORE AF WAS COMING. WELL, THE 23RD CAME AND WENT AND STILL NOTHING.I TOOK AN EARLY HPT ON MONDAY 27TH AND SAID NEG. AS I EXPECTED. SO IM THINKING IM CRAZY BECAUSE I FEEL VERY MUCH PREGNANT. I HAVE A 61/2YR OLD DAUGHTER :) AND I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS WHICH AREN'T DRAMATIC BUT NOTICABLE. I'M QUEEZY ALOT AND CAN'T BRUSH MY TOUNGUE BUT NO VOMITING LIKE WITH MY 1ST. I KNOW MUCH CAN BE EXPLAINED BY PMS BUT I'VE BEEN "PMSING" FOR 2 WEEKS NOW. I HAVE SLIGHT CRAMPING EVERY NOW & THEN AND I FEEL LIKE I PULLED SOMETHING IN MY RIGHT LOWER ABDOMEN. I ALSO HAVE THAT PULLING FEELING ONCE AND A WHILE FROM MY BELLY BUTTON DOWN. COULD IT BE MY APPENDIX?
I HATE FEELING LIKE THIS I WISH I KNEW FOR SURE WHETHER I WAS OR NOT. I FEEL LIKE IM CRAZY EVERYTIME A TEST COMES BACK NEG. BUT MY BODY TELLS ME YES. MY STOMACH IS VERY BLOATED. I LOOK PREGNANT WHICH WOULDN'T EXPLAIN ANYTHING BECAUSE YOU SHOULDN'T BE SHOWING THIS SOON. IM THINKING ALL KINDS OF THINGS ARE WRONG WITH ME (TUMOR, GALLBLADDER, APPENDIX)
I WILL TRY ANOTHER TEST THIS WEEKEND, HOPING I JUST TESTED TOO SOON. GLAD TO KNOW THAT IM NOT ALONE :). GOOD LUCK TO ALL.
I was convinced I was pregnant - I was four days late, with incredibly (for me!) large breasts, which were different from normal periodic breasts. I am usually regular as clockwork, apart from during the holidays with that change of routine. And a sudden interest in patchwork also gave the game away...
But I was testing negative. I read your forum and several people said they were off to the doctors so I took myself off to an appointment. The doc said I could only wait and test again (she suggested a week), but although not having seen it an awful lot, did know of someone who had never tested positive during her pregnancy (I think it's only the first trimester that the hormones are meant to be present). She didn't test me again, as said that the tests available in shops were probably even more reliable than the ones she had. She also thought that six days late was probably still quite early really.
I suddenly stopped 'feeling' pregnant when I was about a week late, and the next afternoon my period started. However, the next evening, I started bleeding like crazy and great lumps of something you might find at the butchers started appearing in my mooncup. (An exaggeration - 'great lumps' meaning perhaps 3-4cm in diameter.) I phoned my mum (a nurse) and she said it sounded like a miscarriage, and I should eat iron, walk around, massage my tummy, but generally take it easy and go to the hospital if I felt any pain.
She was also very helpful in telling me about her own experience: before she had me (I am the eldest) she had at least two miscarriages. In her case, her pregnancy only 'stuck' when she felt 'as sick as a parrot' - this is presumably the point at which the pregnancy hormones kick in and it is for these that the pregnancy test is looking for. This by no means is going to be the same for everybody - evidently, some never have high enough hormones to test positive. In my case, though, I think it meant my body was trying to be pregnant but not quite succeeding.
Apart from feeling a little anaemic, I am quite pleased that everything's working, and that my instinct for feeling pregnant is correct. I will try try try again! And I won't take a pregnancy test until I'm late AND feeling ill. (I might not keep to that promise!)
My usual cycle is about 26 days and silly me did a test on the 26th day as I was sure something was going on. I had been moody, had slightly bigger boobs, was really tired and actually sleeping in the middle of the day, needing to urinate all the time and the test was negative, so we found this site and had some hope.
Today was day 30 and still no period this morning and I had read that with testing early, the hcg levels can sometimes be low, so decided to do another test when I first needed to go to the toilet thismorning. Still negative and still no period. Carried on the day as normal still with pregnancy symptoms, then bang, along comes my period. I was devastated and cried as I wanted it so badly. I think because I was thinking about getting pregnant and wanting it so much that my mind and body decided to play tricks on me. So now the best thing for me to do is to try to forget about getting pregnant and focus on myself and to enjoy the summer that is starting here. Maybe then I will get pregnant when I am not so desperate for it. I have a beautiful little boy who is 15 months old and a wonderful husband so they will be my main priority from now.
Good luck.
I to like many of you am 2 and a half weeks late.. not really to many symptoms though... everynow and then i feel nausous.. i have gained a little weight,,,, and well of course no period,.. i have taken 3 HPT's and to my dissapointment all negative..
I recently had an etopic pregnancy that had me depressed for weeks. i was Two and a half months pregnant with no systems at all, except the occasional, cramping and longer periods.. which lead me to the doctor and emergency surgery...
I am scared that this is possibly happening again... Please Help any answers would make me feel so much better..

I had my period on Oct. 21, but possibly could have conceived about a week or two before that as it was during my honeymoon (go figure). I am also having some cramping, bloating and a bit of gas in my stomach and up towards my rib cage which doesn't usually happen when I'm expecting my period. Is it possible that you could take a home preg. test and have the one at the doctor's not show up positive? I am a mess right now, not knowing is the worst part.
Do I wait another week and test myself again?
Thanks for any help, please let me know if you went through the same thing.
DH & I have been TTC for 4 months (this is currently our 5th), DH is 30 and I'm 28. Have been off Depo Provera Shot for 14 months and been having irregular periods for 10 months now. My cycle length varies from 12 - 20 days. I'm currently sitting at CD22 with no period, no cramps, bloating, or any of the AF symptoms I'm used to. Have been using OPK because of the irregular cycle length & this month ovulated on CD5 while I was still spotting from AF! So I'm technically late now, did a HPT yesterday and it was a BFN... have cried 2 times in the last 12 hours (watching Fried Green Tomatoes!),& my temps jumped today from 36.2 celsius to 36.6 (BBT charting for last 5 months & temp drops way low to 36.0 or 35.9 on the day I'm expecting AF)and have been feeling a real tightness in my lower abdomen, like I did a bunch of crunches last night & my muscles are sore & stretched. I've been dizzier than usual the last week, but yesterday I was only bent at the waist not completely over & when I stood up I had to grab the wall so I wouldn't fall over. No sore boobs, had one brown spotting CD14 with some cramps on days either side of it but that's all. I hope that I am pregnant but have been so disappointed in previous months that I don't want to set myself up for some more hurt. CM has been white & chunky for about 10 days but there seems to be a bit more if it. Maybe that's wishful thinking on my part? Anyways, I'll be sure to keep testing and when I find out the answer for sure, I'll return back to let you all know! If ANYONE has more info about conceiving after the Shot, please let me know, I'm eager to hear others TTC stories that are in the same hormonally challenged boat that I'm in!
Cheers,
Chevy
10/27/06 lmp. month before hand I was kinda late, like two weeks, but I knew why. I had just gotten off Nuva Ring after two years use. I had been bleeding and spotting for almost 5 weeks on NuvaRing at the end. My ob took me off and handed me Yasmin-Pill. I opted not to use it when I got my period in October. So, on b.c. I was regular. I have been on b.c. for about 8 years, stopping once and got pregnant. When I was a teen I was irregular.
Now that I am off b.c. for the first time in years I think back to when I didnt use birth control. And at that point a month or so would go by. But, now I am late no matter how you figure out the days. I am married so pregnancy is a possibility but all the tests I took say negative. I wonder how long it will take to either find out I am pregnant or get a period? How many weeks can someone with no endometriosis or medical issues skip periods??????
I am reluctant to see my doctor for fear of another BFN result or putting a jinx on the whole thing, so I am waiting to see if I miss another AF due around January 12th. It's the waiting that drives me mad, but I am conviced that my body is right and science is wrong. After all, what did women ever do before doctors and HPT's????? Good luck to all and let's be hearing from those lucky people who have had a positive result.
DH and I have been ttc for 1 yr now and we have 2 children aswell. Dr is already checking my progesterone levels to see if im ovulating and i got to wait 1 week for the result. (by then i should know if im pregnant or not)
either way i have been getting sore breasts, cramps, backache, feeling dizzy, nausea and headaches.
If I am preegnant I would have concieved on xmas day...great I spose.
I will let you know when my period is due and good luck and baby dust to all.

2nd is your period late?
if so take a pregnancy test as this will confirm it if you are. there are many reasons for the syptems you describe... how old are you are you still developing.
hope this helps
Well, i am going through a lot more urinating, my breast are sore, and i have mood swings. Those are the symptoms i have. I dont know if im pregnant. I really, dont want to be. Me and my bf are really freaking out. And i just need advice. Or i just want to know if im pregnant or not. Please help me! and Tell me what to do!
i haven't had my period yet, im waiting for the 17th because thats when i usually have my period. And if i do have a late period, does that mean im pregnant?
Are these Symptoms just normal? like a normal person symptom? because my boobs was sore before.. because i play a lot of sports. but i dont know about the urination and the mood swings. These are the only symptoms i have.
Im sorry, but i really need help and advice. Please Help! I'm really new to all this pregnancy stuff. And i really don't wanna be pregnant. Thanks!
And my breast aren't swelling anymore.. but they feel as they are getting bigger.
Please help, i need to know if im pregnant or not!
Thanks.
If you find out you are pregnant, you really should talk to someone right away... particularly being so young and unprepared for this. If you're not comfortable or prepared to talk to your parents about it, then Planned Parenthood is typically a good place to turn, at least to answer your questions and discuss your options.
If you're not pregnant, then thank the Lord and be more careful.
I'm 33 years old and have 3 healthy, beautiful children. My husband and I feel that our family is complete. He has yet to get a vasectomy, however. We use condoms as our regular form of contraception until that procedure is completed.
My cycle is very regular (28 - 29) days. I am almost never late and have never been early or experienced any kind of mid-cycle bleeding. My lmp was on Dec. 10. I should have ovulated around the 25th. We were at a hotel over Christmas and used a condom with a vibrating ring but it was a real condom from a reputable company. Anyway, on the afternoon of the 31st (approx. 6 days later) we made love in the afternoon. When I got up and wiped myself, there was blood on the tissue. I wiped twice and found this, then nothing more. I was quite concerned as this never happens to me and immediately ran to the computer to search for my symptoms! I basically managed to narrow it down (through existance of, or lack of, other symptoms) cervical cancer or implantation bleeding.
I have 3 children (and had one miscarriage) and have never experienced implantation bleeding. Anyway, I saw my doctor on Jan. 5 and she did an internal exam, a pap to test for cervical cancer, and a urine pregnancy test. The pg test was negative but then it was still several days before my period was due.
On the day my period was due (the 8th), I did an hpt which was negative. By this point (and still presently) my nipples were sore and my breasts slightly tender but not so much as when I was pregnant with each of my 3 kids. My back was (and still is) also very sore and I have periodic cramping as though my period should arrive any moment but it doesn't. I did another test on the 12th and it was still negative. It's now the 13th and I am 5 days late. I have no idea what is going on with my body. I know I can't be pregnant as I'm still testing negative at 4 days late on a test that's supposed to be accurate up to 4 days before your period is due! I know that I'm not imagining symptoms out of hope because I really have no desire to be pregnant. On the other hand, I'm not stressed or worried that I could be because I have a wonderful, loving husband and family and we would all accept and welcome a new addition if that's what this turned out to be. I'm sure I sound like a freak but this is really weird for me and I'm just at a loss.
I appreciate people reading this ridiculously long post and, once again, would be grateful for any insight into my problem.
my period has never been normal i can go one or two monnths without a period.my last period was in late november and i am cramping but nothing has happened yet. i also have endometriosis i do not have any idea as to what is going on. i have taken who knows how many hpt and all have been negative i have had all of the symptoms of pregnancy (sore tender discolored nipple and breasts, moodiness, nausea, im exhausted all of the time, my stomach is hard and huge) but do not know if it could be my body messing with me or if i really am pregnant. so i went to take a blood test and i got the results back which were negative. i do not know what is going on right now with my body. if there is anyone who has any information i would greatly appreciate it i do not have any clue of what i need to do right now. thx
When I was pregnant with my son I thought I was further along then what the drs were telling me. I even had him 6 weeks early. You know your body and when you are trying to get pregnant you know everytime you have sex. in my first pregnancy the same period situation happened back then thought it was my period but it was light, none and then a spot. It is nice knowing I am not the only one.
I've had every single symptom, except for missing a period. I have yet to miss one, but I've read in many places, that some women don't. Other than that...every sign points to yes, minus the pregnancy test. But I have only taken one so far. I have one left, and I plan on taking it in the next few days.
If I AM pregnant, I'm pretty sure I am about 2 months pregnant. I began having symptoms a few weeks after I had unprotected sex (pull-out "method"), which was before the posibility ever even crossed my mind, so I know I'm not creating this. My breasts are sore (ESPECIALLY my nipples), and a little bit swollen. My lower back is always aching, to the point where I sometimes forget it hurts, because I'm so used to it. My eyes are straining, and my eyesight gets blurry (something it's never done in the past.) I feel dizzy, light headed, more out of it, than usual. Like I can't get a grip on things. I'm so tired, but have trouble sleeping at night. I just keep falling asleep during the day. I'm peeing more often. For a while I had diharea (sorry) every morning, but now I tend to be somewhat constipated. My appetite is totally wacky. Nauseous ALL of the time. Even just eating simple things, like popcorn, or crackers, makes me feel like I'm going to throw it up. Sweet things are the easiest to keep down (how convenient.) I have the strangest feelings in my stomach. Nothing I've ever experienced before. But most of all, I feel the difference in my stomach. It's popping out a little bit which COULD be due to eating a lot, (and not as much exersize as usual), but it's hard-ish, and when I suck in, it stays right there. I just have this FEELING. After I got the negative test, I decided to just forget about it, and just come to the conclusion, that I am not pregnant. But I have this nagging feeling. And I don't exactly WANT to be pregnant, but if it's meant to be, it's meant to be, and I will be happy with it. I just need to know. I'm very young, and this would really put a huge spin on my life, so the sooner I know, the better I can prepare.
I'm sorry this is so long, and just me sort of rambling, but I'm not really sure what to do, next. Very few people know about this, so I'm sort of figuring this out on my own. We don't have a doctor, at the moment, so I can't just go get checked.
AF has yet to come to town yet and every single part of me wants to believe that we are pregnant. My story is something like the post from Baby-Dust 28. We learned 2 years ago that it may be more challenging for us due to issues and age (which I don't believe cuz I am quite fertile according to tests and past). We were told that the only options we had were via fertility treatment. We heard it all about the limited chances. After the first year of a battery of tests, vitamins, iui's, ivf...etc...we finally took a break and I let go. After 2 months of no AF (being late is common for me) I took provera to induce my period and nothing came. I was also taking imiterx for my massive migraines and exercising like crazy. At the time we thought nothing of it being late b/c we didn't even know if DH was able to father a child. Turns out, we were given a blessing and didn't even know it. A week after we saw the heartbeat, we faced a m/c. The bio test showed it was a healthy fetus and reason for m/c was unexplained. Everything is unexplained with us. My irregular pds and that I overstimulate with fertility drugs yet I don't have pcos, DH male factor yet no one knows why since blood work and various physical test pass with flying colors. Back to the drawing board. More tests, iui, clomid, etc.... Nothing! It may be mental- stress related? I said I needed another break so we went on vacation in June. Truth is, I can't not think about it because I am wishing I have another miracle happen just like last year when I "let go" and had gone on vacation.
I am irregular so I don't know what to make of it. The opk don't work b/c they are positive for 2 weeks every time I try them and yet I do ovulate most of the time. Can I be psychologically holding AF from coming or can it just be that I ovulated late or...can we be pg? Thoughts of it this past week have been non-stop. Today, I needed to know (38 past last pd). My hand shook as I opened the hpt and my heart raced as I stared down at this little plastic applicator. 1 min., 2 min, 3min, 5 min, 8...10...15...20...One line. If only another smudge of a line could appear. I held the test up to light in case there is a faint color I was missing...nothing. I took a deep breath as I could feel a rush of disappointment rush right through me. DH asked me why I bothered to test. I said I had to b/c it would drive me crazy (again). If you have hope and faith, you will always feel that there is another miracle out there coming to you. After a few hours of emotional swings, I decided to do what I have forbade myself to do since my m/c last year. I got on to the web to see what other women may be experiencing.
I have slight symptoms of pms (or pregnancy) yet I had the same (slight) as last year when I was pg and didn't know it. Can I be pg. even though the hpt came back negative? I don't know what to do. There is still hope that I may have O late and that I am pg but to what point do I want to convince myself before I face another disappointment. We (I) had decided to do another ivf next cycle if this natural cycle didn't work. I really don't want to go through the treatment again but I feel that I must b/c I am turning 40 soon.
So, here we are, hoping, praying and wishing that the tests are cannot pick up different signals our bodies are sending to us. I hope that the Dr. gives us the news we have been waiting to hear.
Let me know what happens
I'm 21 and have always had extremely irregular periods. The ex and I messed around (didn't have actual sex) on the 6th and had sex on the 7th. We used a condom, which I later found out was over a year expired. I have no clue when my next period is due (my cycles vary from 30 to 63) but for the last 12 days, I have been cramped up (not as bad as PMS cramps), gassy, headachy, nausous and my boobs hurt (not normal for me). Two dollar store HPTs say not pregnant. I really don't know what to do. I had a dr appt. today (unrelated to all of this) and mentioned to her my symptoms. The reply I got back was "Well if you've had two negative tests, you're not pregnant. Trust me, I'm a doctor and mother of 4." I still think I'm pregnant though. Could my mind just be messing with me?
I am looking for some advice. Here is my situation. I am a little confussed. My boyfriend and I are looking to have a baby. We have been trying for serveral months now. I was only a day late on having my period so I figured that it was just a normal period and nothing to suspect. Well my period was only at most 2 days long, as well as it being light. Usually my period is very heavy and at least lasts 5 days long. I have been feeling very weird for a couple of weeks so I desided to look some information up on line. I found that I have almost all the symptoms of being pregnant. Being tried, sick and dizzy all the time, cramping in the adomin like when you get your period, not being interested in foods that I once was and having interest in others that I never really was. So finally I decided to take a test and it came out negitive. So I thought that it was all in my head and now that I saw the test come out negitive that I would be fine, well that is not the case. I dont have sore brests though. I know that everyone is different but I just would like some peoples oppinions or personal related stories. I do plan on going to the doctor but I am wondering if I should wait to see if my period comes next month. Also I was wondering if it is possible to get implatation bleeding at the time that your expected period is suppost to come. I know that the time frame for me to actually be pregnant is possible. I look forward to hearing everyones feed back.
As for myself, I am 24, and living in British Columbia, Canada. My boyfriend lives one province beside my own in Alberta, Canada. I miss him a lot, and needless to say when one of us makes the 12-hour distance "hop" to see the other... we're pretty errmmm... umm... "busy" for the short amount of time we get to see one another (he's doing an internship for the government). Lol.
I am currently 4 days late for my period and I haven't been late for my period in over a year now. I have PCOS (PolyCystic Ovary Syndrome) but recently (as in the last few months) started to ovulate and was told by my doctors to "be careful, you could get pregnant!" But this warning was good news to my ears.
Anyway... I have my period on the 22nd or 23rd of the month, religiously usually. And am done before the 1st day of the following month. It's now the morning of the 27th and I have nothing but achey (achy) cramps, and tender swollen breasts and nipples. I'm exhausted... and being a night owl, I find it odd that I'm clad in pj's and have my teeth brushed and slippers on before 9pm at night. It doesn't matter how much rest I get, I'm simply exhausted.
I don't feel like myself--I'm moody, irritated, giddy, happy, giggly, smiley, pissy, sobbing, crying over happy stuff... etc. I feel fat, awkward, can't suck my stomach in to save my life. Have gained a couple pounds...
A few weeks ago my best friend Stacey made a comment that she couldn't believe how much I was eating... I was eating and eating and eating. I normally get told I don't eat enough (this isn't intentional, I just don't seem to be a big meal eater... I pick more than anything). But I was just mowin' down on EVERYTHING! Lol.
I thought I had a sinus infection the last couple weeks or a cold as well... but in the last few days since I've missed my period start, I've had the clearest nasal pathway I've had in a year.
My best friend (who is a guy) commented on my um... ample cleavage...
And I've been taking my temperature and it seems to be high, as well as I only started taking it because for the last couple weeks I've felt very hot and been told I looked flushed in the face. I nearly fell over at a friends house the other nite before he caught me on my way down from dizziness I was experiencing all day and the day before.
Anyway... these are just a few symptoms.
I took a pregnancy test both before my period was due to start and a day after... and nothing but a negative read. But this was the FIRST time ever that I actually said to myself "it's wrong... I know it." Usually I'm the type that would be all "okay... well... if the stick says so, the stick means business and is right." But I have this weird intuitive feeling that it's wrong!
My breasts hurt so bad the other day that I couldn't sleep and I couldn't decide which was less painful and wouldn't make me tear up--wearing clothes or not wearing clothes in bed!!
Another thing about 3 weeks ago was I went into the doctor for leg pain along the fronts of my shins and he told me it was vascular thrombosis... he wasn't sure what it was from tho and said I was healthy and that it was odd I was experiencing it. I dunno if this would have anything to do with anything.
Anyway...
I know that I shouldn't have been ovulating when I was visiting my boyfriend... but I'm new to calculating it all and I could seriously be wrong. But I honestly think I could be pregnant...
It's just a "feeling".
Oh and my belly-button feels odd...
I was sitting up this morning and I got a weird tight pulling feeling from the back of it in my tummy and it went away after being up and about a few minutes. But it came back tonite sitting here typing and sort of quivered, like a weird pulling cramp. Oh and I have cramps, but they sure don't feel like what I normally have (normally, and my best bud Melcolm vouched for me on this one today... normally I am literally dying and bedridden with them because of the cysts).
Anyway... I asked a couple girlfriend's... one with pcos and one without and they both said that with their pregnancy's a) PCOS friend said she was 2 months preggo beforet the blood test even had enough pregnancy hormone to detect she was even carrying. She relied on other symptoms.
b) the othe friend said she tested twice with negative results before she finally went to the doctor and had bloodwork done to confirm she was pregnant, and her sore breasts (sore in a different than pms-ing way... which is how I mYSELF feel right now)... were her first signs.
I just wanted to share... maybe someone has experienced similar things... or has PCOS and is experiencing this?
Oddly enough, for having PCOS I have had a regular perfect period for hte last year and a half. But I still know I have it... my symptoms are just improving with weight loss and lifestyle changes.
I wish all those trying to conceive the best of luck... and those that may have already--I wish you happiness for the next little while as your baby's grow.
~Robyn.
Don't hate me! I type like I talk!--too much! lol :P
Someone please help before my doctor appointment!
since that night, i've felt different. when i experienced some brown cm about a week before my period was due, my first thought was implantation bleeding. i'd love to be able to have a baby, as i have endometriosis and have had it for 12 years already. (i am 24, and began my cycles at age 9, with endo at 12.) in that sense, this would be a welcome miracle.
the symptoms i've been having are as follows:
brown cm lasting for 3 days, not even filling a tampon (which i inserted when the spotting began, as i thought it might be the onset of my period, and changed once a day after. i normally have a really heavy flow and extreme cramping, courtesy of the endo, so it was a shock to have no pain and very very light spotting.)
dizziness/headaches
nausea
a cold approximately one week ago, with heavy congestion
weight gain and a feeling of tightness in my lower abdomen
breasts actually sensitive for once (normally mine are numb to touch)
more discharge than usual
cravings (wendy's nuggets and a vanilla frosty. i NEVER eat fried food, or fast food so both break codes of my diet)
most of all, a feeling that i am pregnant.
feeling hot when everyone else seems to be freezing.
i've taken one hpt test, and it was negative (first response.) i also went to the clinic near my house and had a pg urine test done, but was told that i have the clearest urine they have ever seen (due to heavy water consumption on a regular basis) so the levels of hormone may have been diluted, especially since it wasn't first morning urine. i'm going to the hospital tomorrow to have a blood pg test (hopefully), but am scared that it will also be negative. i've come to like the idea of this baby, despite the hard circumstances surrounding its conception.
does anyone know of conditions which might cause these symptoms, but would not be pregnancy? i have had ovarian cysts in the past which have twisted, and it did not feel like this, but i neglected one when i was overseas recently and am also nervous that these symptoms might just be the fruit of my neglect in the form of a big, operation-required, ovarian cyst.
Just talked to a 24 hour Registered nurse about my situation. She said that I should get a Blood test and that a Blood test result is the Absolute DEFINITE to the inquiry of pregnancy. If its positive, you are. If its negative, YOU ARE NOT.
Am scheduling my blood test appointment as I type to you all...
Helpless
im kinda in the same boat as the rest of you. my husband and i are not trying to conceive, i have not missed any of my birth control pills. but the past two months i have still had my period as normal, but also some spotting during the second week of my pills. nausea especially in the mornings, breast tenderness, weight gain, i'm moody, and have frequency urinating!!! a home pregnancy test was negative and i had a test done when i went for my annual gyno visit two days ago, it was also negative! i told him all my symptoms, but he didnt seem concerned...i however am a little, i dont think im paranoid, and i dont want to continue taking the pills if i am pregnant.... a friend suggested a blood test to be sure---just wanted some advise from someone who had been there!
My husband came home for R&R 19 days ago. I started having pregnancy symptoms last week. My breasts hurt very bad, i am urinating often, I am having cramping feelings, constipation, pain in left side of lower abdomen all the way down through my left leg, tiredness, mood swings, headaches, hunger pains, and nausea. (all the same early symptoms from my pregnancy a year ago that I miscarried two and half months into) I took three hpts all negative. I went to the doctor on Wednesday for a blood and urine test: negative. My breasts hurt so bad every morning that I have been searching the web trying to find an answer and keep coming up with pregnancy or breast cancer. My breasts are not lumpy, discolored, lopsided, or any other symptom conducive to breast cancer. They just feel like there is not enough skin there or something. And man they are sore. did i mention that?
Anyways, I will let you all know what happens...We wanted to wait until he got home from Iraq for good...But sometimes God has different plans.
I had sex about three weeks ago and got my period a week later (a little early and more painful than usual...the doctor said it was probably hormonal changes). I've been really emotional with weird mood swings and extremely tired (but I've been writing most of this off as stress-induced). However...my breasts have become extremely tender, and when I was brushing my teeth this morning I suddenly felt too warm and began feeling nauseous. It went away in a few minutes, so it might have just been a fluke.
On Thursday, I took a pregnancy test around lunchtime, and I took another on Friday morning right after I woke up (since I know this is the best time). They both came out negative, so my boyfriend and I thought, "Okay, no baby, then." But my breasts have been getting more and more painful, and I think my abdomen's a little bloated (I never bloat during my period, so I'm actually not sure what it's supposed to feel like...sounds like I'm an idiot, huh?). I'm very thin, but I've heard that this doesn't always mean I'll show earlier.
Any thoughts? Comments are greatly appreciated. : )
False negative readings can occur when testing is done too early. Quantitative blood tests and the most sensitive urine tests usually detect hCG shortly after implantation, which can occur anywhere from 6 to 12 days after ovulation.[2] Less sensitive urine tests and qualitative blood tests may not detect pregnancy until three or four days after implantation. Menstruation occurs on average 14 days after ovulation, so the likelihood of a false negative is low once a menstrual period is late.
Ovulation may not occur at a predictable time in the menstrual cycle, however. A number of factors may cause an unexpectedly early or late ovulation, even for women with a history of regular menstrual cycles. Using ovulation predictor kits (OPKs), or charting the fertility signs of cervical mucus or basal body temperature give a more accurate idea of when to test than day-counting alone.
The accuracy of a pregnancy test is most closely related to the day of ovulation, not of the act of intercourse or insemination that caused the pregnancy. It is normal for sperm to live up to five days[10] in the fallopian tubes, waiting for ovulation to occur.[11] It could take up to twelve further days for implantation to occur, meaning even the most sensitive pregnancy tests may give false negatives up to seventeen days after the act that caused the pregnancy. Because some home pregnancy tests have high hCG detection thresholds (up to 100 mIU/mL), it may take an additional three or four days for hCG to rise to levels detectable by these tests — meaning false negatives may occur up to three weeks after the act of intercourse or insemination that causes pregnancy.
Hope this helps!
So haapy to find these postings. I keep having some slight symptoms of pregnancy. My cycle has never been like clock work but usually comes within a week of the same date as the previous month. I am currently having gallbladder issues and want soem opinions. I keep thinking I might be pregnant but keep getting a negative result. My last period was before july 11 08 and still has not come. My freind said that because she could not feel any tightness in my abdomen that she does not think I am pregnant. My breast hurt a little and everyonce inawhile my stomach feels nauseated. I've never been pregnant and have not been trying but also not trying to prevent it. I keep telling myself not to get my hopes up because I would be extremely happy if it did happen. I need some opinions! PLEEEEEESE respond.
However I am 5 days late which is unheard of for me, have had nausea in mornings, some breast tenderness, slight cramping.Have already done 2 urine tests , one cheapo Boots and one ClearBlue...both came up negative. Am booked in to see the doc tomorrow am...have already considered possibility of early menopause...but feel that i am pregnant.
will let you know
If the ectopic pregnancy is not caught early enough it will rupture, causing massive internal bleeding throughout the abdomen, then the bleeding leads to pain in the shoulder at which point an emergency laparotomy is required to locate and stop the bleeding. Get an ultrasound or blood test if you have symptoms and neg urine tests. Don't let the doctor make you wait for an ultrasound or a blood test. Ectopic pregnancy is 1/100 chance, and is the leading cause of maternal death in the first trimester.
This happened to me once and my life was hanging by a thread, I spent a week in the hospital. It's amazing to me now how unaware I was about how common the condition is.
My husband & I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year. I have not been on the pill in about 3 years (was told to get off them by my Dr.) and cannot use condoms (allergy)
I have had the following (some of which are not usually pms symptoms for me):
1. swollen and SORE breasts (darker nipples) - sometimes a symptom of pms
2. very swollen abdomen (have been on a weight loss stint - lost 20lbs so my pants were all baggy... then suddenly stopped losing weight, however still losing inches everywhere but hips/lower abdomen, pants now TIGHT.)
3. VERY nauseas and dizzy-ish... actual vomiting for the last 3 days (could also be flu)
4. incredibly moody (happy, then crying, then slightly pissed off, then giggly.. ALL OVER THE PLACE!!)
5. very congested and headachy (I do get a lot of headaches though, but these seem "different")
6. frequent urinating
7. cramping, although very different from pms cramping
8. ridiculously tired (aactually napping in the afternoon, then sleeping normally at night)
9. weird cravings (McDonalds, Pizza - which I don't even like!)
10. weird pains in my "downstairs" at the vaginal opening, almost in the muscle or bone...like a throb every now and then...
11. Tingly feeling - almost like when your foot falls asleep and comes out of it - when wiping after peeing
12. heartburn - which I don't usually have at all
...I can't think of anything else right now, but if I do I will add.
I'm really praying for a baby, but I have been let down in the past! I have taken 4 pregnancy tests in the last few weeks, but all negative. I have an appt on Thursday (Mar 5) with the endochronologist (hormone specialist - for crazy periods starting in June, when I had my period on and off (mostly on) for 6 weeks.
I was told when I was about 13 that I probably wouldn't be able to get pregnant because I have a very low and twisted cervix... at the age of 13 I was like "ok, whatever!" but now I'm very much wanting a baby.
I hope all you ladies that wanted a baby as badly as I do were blessed with a little one...
This would be a VERY pleasant surprise! *Fingers Crossed*
God works in Mysterious Ways!
I'm Catie, I'm seventeen and was a virgin up until january 10th.
-I got my period on the 2nd of January
-took plan B once after sex
-got my period again Feb. 2nd
-I am very regular and usually get a 7 day period
-I have been experiencing lower back pains, abnormal breakout on scalp, dizziness, huge mood swings (and easily angered or stressed), very slight nausea, spotting (after sex this week), and I have to pee constantly
-I took a pregnancy test on Friday Feb. 6th and it came out negative
-I've been having sex almost everyday since ..january i guess.
-We've been using condoms and I'm not on the pill
-sometimes before we start really having sex he will enter me without protection on- i'm most worried about this- however he has never come without a condom or felt that he has produced pre-ejaculate while inside of me while not wearing a condom
i don't know where to turn to at this point and can't fall asleep (i've been up at night lately too)
i've also NEVER EVER missed a period.
My questions are:
what should i do next?
what is the chance that a negative test result is wrong?
Until then...and baby dust to all,
brookita

*****cry******
it messed up so much cuz my blood count was low...
im almost 3 weeks late which has never happened before, im always on every month on the same day without fail. ive took 4 pregnancy tests and all came back negative.
i went to see a doctor at 8 days late and he said give it another week, then book a midwife and she will do blood test. my doctor also told me to trust my instings because pregnancy tests are not certain.
by the way ladies i hope this helps a pregnancy test will also come back negative if your hormone levels are to high, which in my case they are.
i have booked a midwife and will let everyone know what the result is even if its not positive.
goodluck to everyone i hope you all get your answers soon.
im now 4 weeks late and still waiting i have appointment with midwife on tuesday she will be taking my bloods so hopefully will get some good news.
im keeping my fingers crossed.
will let you know what happens.

i have lost 9 lbs this month and i did not have a period but i did have spotting it has been 6 weeks since my last menstral cycle and 2 weeks since i was supposed to have one.
my husband and i had sex on the second week i am experianceing other pregnancy symptoms such as:
bloating,fatigue(but restlessness through the night i wake up and toss and turn all night), dull ache and tightness near my pelvic area, nausea, vomiting, irritability, mood changes, headaches, dizziness, frequent urination and breast soreness and tenderness.(though my boobs are not getting bigger like they did with my first pregnancies. (though that may be a good thing because i miscarried all of them)
i have taken 4 pregnancy tests now but they have all been negative... is there a chance that i could still be pregnant or could this all just be from the weight loss??
stepmomof3
When I was pregnant with my now 3 year old, every test I took said negative. Three months after my LMP I finally got a positive result. When I had my first ultrasound, they determined I was about 3.5 months at that point.
I had a blood test when I was only 3 days late and that came back negative, so I'm not sure what's going on.
With my son, I had absolutely no pregnancy symptoms, other than no period and fatigue.
For almost 2 weeks I've been super tired, extremely nauseated, very picky with what I eat, my breats are extremely sensitive, not sore though. I don't know what is going on, but I scheduled an appointment for next week with my midwife/OB because not knowing is driving me insane.
As far as sex is concerned, my boyfriend and I have a LOT of sex. At the time I was ovulating we had sex on average four times a day for a week. I've noticed my libido is way down in the last week.... same thing happened when I got pregnant with my son. I'm so confused.....
I am currently 2 days late on my period, but i recently stopped taking my bc pills so I wonder if that could be why.... although i have had MANY pregnancy symptoms for the past couple of weeks that I cannot seem to ignore:
1: Nausea
2. Lower back pain
3. Headaches
4. Bloat in lower abdomen
5. Constant cramping
6. Weight Gain
7. Just in the past day, noticed big blue veins around my hips/abdomen and wrists.
8. Heartburn
9. Increase in appetite - more frequent, and specific cravings.
10. Up all night peeing, then decide to raid the fridge of course lol
11. Increase in Saliva
12. Over a week ago had tiny bit of pink spotting in my underwear, only that one time.
13. Strange sleep patterns and dreams.
14. Moodiness/Irritability - suddenly crying at nothing.... boyfriend's snoring drives me insane now, whereas before i never noticed it.
I think that's about it.... lots right? But of course I've had about 10 negative urine tests and 1 negative blood test. I am so confused, don't want to confuse myself any more by creating symptoms in my mind. Just want an answer! If ANYONE has any advice or anything please please comment!
Thanks, and good luck to everybody.
Was feeling hungry all the time .and I was having all the symptoms lower pain etc..... and my period was always on time every 28 days , i was not stressed , not overworked , it just happend that i had late ovulation .
Wish you all the best
Marias .
with me i even felt movement so im still going to go for scan as i think i might have pcos will keep you all updated
I am glad to have come upon this site, not only for myself but its encouraging to know there is a place we can go to try and help and support eachother and especially woman who are experiencing this for the first time as we can see we are not alone in this. i have read all ur posts and concerns.
I can identify with all you ladies & the common symptoms all are experiencing.
I know for some woman who are a few days late and in cycle can experience some of these symptoms Tender Breasts, Nausea and Bloating Before getting periods! I am however NOT saying that this is the case for all of you.
I am a mother of three
My story is slightly different but generally the same.
About 7 weeks ago i was a week late and getting Nausea & Noring Breasts and i did infact get my period but for only 3 days and was lighter than usual as am always regular.
I breathed thinking ok so im not pregnant, but the symptoms persisted.
I thought nothing of this until i was due for my next period and it did not come..
I took a pregnancy test & it was a Negative! A week and a bit later it arrived, the worst pain like labour and everybody said "Oh ur just misscarrying" But i knew this not to be true as i have had one berfore and there was no clotting at all. Just normal flow and painful.
I consulted a nurse about all my symptoms and my unusal cycle behaviour and yet another pregnancy test was a Negative. I was getting alittle worried by this stage.
Now two weeks later and symptoms have worsend...Major Bloating, Nausea,Faint/Dizzy,Tender drawing like sensation of the Breasts. I took another home pregnancy test still a Negative, i know my own body well enough to know something isint quite right and having 3 children i am certain Baby No 4 is very likely. Appt has been made for blood testing and a possible abdominal scan as this is so frustrating so i can Relate to you all in this area. I will keep you all posted to my results incase it helps ease someone elses Anxiety and Frustration.
I cant really suggest anything you can do except perserver and play the waiting game like i have although most of the stories ive read all have late or skipped periods.
Hang in there and try not to get too Anxious we are all in this together! =)
Last month i had a pregnancy scare although me and my boyfriend are very careful. I was an emotional wreck, my stomach was bloated and i was late for my period, which i never have been. I took a test and it came back negative and then the next day i came on, so although i felt silly i felt relieved too. However this month im even more emotional, my legs are aching like mad my skin is awful, i can't stop eating and ive been feeling nautious. Is it common to stay on your period whilst pregnant?
my periods were due in the 6th of this month, i am late 12 days with my periods, its 18th 2day.i have done a prgnancy test at home , the results is negative, is this reliable?? should i do these tests again? apart from being a little sleepy and a mild back pain, i don see ne symptoms. and theres no signs of my periods......i had taken a contraceptive pill before my last periods, and my bleeding for that particular period was not regular.(the contraceptive drug broshure read that it was normal to hav a lte period).....does this affect my normal periods in any way?? am i prregnant?/
