What to do in the event that I think I am pregnant but no one else really does?

Okay so my husband and I have been trying to conceive for the last three months. My cycles are very regular and start like clock work. So of course in November when I didn't have a period on the 12th I knew that this could be it. I could actually be pregnant. So I wanted until three days after my missed period to test. I got a negative. So then the following day I took another one. Still negative. As much as I should have waited I got a blood test done just in case it would show before a HPT. That was also negative. So I waited a couple of weeks to see if my period was really off. Well as expected I never started. So on Sunday the 27th of November I took another pregnancy test. I still got negative. So Yesterday Dec 1 I went to the doctor to see about a pelvic exam or something to fully rule it out. All the Nurse Practioner did was give me ANOTHER STUPID URINE TEST EVEN AFTER I SAID I AM ALWAYS NEGATIVE. Of course it was the same result as before and as expected. Now if this was my first baby I would have went the first test and said okay well let's try again. However, this is my 3rd pregnancy (well will be) and I have been through this before. Both pregnancy I found out a good bit later that I was pregnant. The situation with my first child was that I had gotten pregnant but kept getting negative tests. My doctor at the time told me that I was over weight and that was the reason why I wasn't ovulating or could even conceive, so naturally I thought I should lose some weight. Well about two months later I got into a car accident. I went to the doctor the next day and before I could get an X-Ray done they told me that I was pregnant. I told them that there is no way because of what the initial doctor had told me. Well they decided to do a blood test. It said that I was pregnant. Well when I finally had an ultrasound done I was 15 going into 16 weeks. That was two weeks after the initial accident. With my second baby I was two months before I found out with her. So if I can't get my doctor to do a pelvic exam or ultrasound with that history alone, what should I do to find out if I am pregnant?

You have missed one period?  Wait until you miss two periods, then get another blood test.  You might be able to get repeated false negatives on urine tests, especially if they are taken during the day, but it is hard to get a false negative on a blood test unless the lab is making errors.
