pressure in my lower abdominal area....pregnant?

Hello Ladies,

I've been having pressure in my lower abdominal area for the past two or three weeks. Some days it's stronger than others.
The thing is, I'm still nursing and haven't gotten my period back yet so I don't know if I've ovulated. But it's been over two weeks since I've been feeling this so I should have gotten my period by now if it was ovulation pain. Do you think I could be pregnant? I took some HPT's over a week ago and they were negative, but I thought maybe it was too early yet. I'm tired of testing. This would be my fourth pregnancy...did anyone experience this uterine pressure when pregnant? Especially with a third or fourth pregnancy?
    I've also been getting light-headed when standing quickly, my breasts are a little sore, (but then again I'm nursing)
and have little bouts of nausea every so often...
I will test soon, but meanwhile...can anyone relate?
Thanks a million.

Hi all i need your help! Im 15days late! Ive taken 5 pregnancy tests and were all negative. I went to the doctor yesterday and had a blood test so im waiting on the results of this. For over a week now ive been getting a weird pain in my right ovary, well not really a pain more discomfort. Then since yesterday ive been gettin pressure pains in ovaries. Neither feels like period pains. Doctor said its unlikely im pregnant as 5 pregnancy tests results were negative. I havnt really been having any other pregnancy symptoms. Has anyone any ideas what this could be? Could i be pregnant? I dont have the patience to wait for the results of the bloods. Thanks!

Sometimes mind to play tricks on us. Especially when we're trying to have one. I always get paranoid everytime my period is late and I wasted so much money on hpt!!! And I actually found out I was when I stopped thinking or waiting...
I had bad cramping for like a week and also had to take a day off from work because the pain comes and go and it was very very painful! I thought it was my period coming...but never came until my friends convinced me to take hpt and it was a BIG FAT +IVE!! Now I have a healthy 6month old baby boy in my arms!!!
Blessing do come when you don't wait for it..it will come on the right time!!!
...and the reason why I'm on his forum/site is because I'm having the same symptoms as my first! Hmm..another blessing for us?
Baby dust to us all!!!
