Neg. tests, growing belly

[justneedtoknow]

(quick run-through, for those of you who don't know...and sorry to post again, so soon) All tests have been negative. The HPT, and a (according to the doctor) "very broad" blood test, were negative, but she wants to do a more precise one, if symptoms persist.

My stomach is growing, and there is NO doubt about that. It's like a swollen, mini watermelon. I just took a shower, and couldn't believe how big it's looking/feeling. I was looking in the mirror before, and after I got out. The veins in my breasts/whole body, are much more visible, than usual. I know this, simply because I see them all clearly. My tummy looks pregnant to me, and I can't get over that. I sometimes bend back (when I walk), like I'm pregnant.

It's not like I am pining to be pregnant. It's just that my body is doing the opposite of what the tests have told me. I've left my mind out of it, and decided to let my body do the talking...and it's talking, alright! I generally have a flat stomach, but this is more of a stomach than I have had since my growth spurt, at age 13-14! So, I guess my question, is...have any of you ever gotten a negative blood test, and ended up with a baby? Or do you know of anyone, who has? I mean, I don't want to continue thinking of pregnancy, when I really am not...but I can't seem to let it go, when I see this tummy in the mirror.
I'm just wondering. (sorry it's so long)
Thank you, and again, good luck to all of you wonderful people!<3

Hello! I'm not sure if it's late to put a comment but I have exactly the issue as yours. I had neg blood tests; I have ultrasound on the week 13. doctor saw signs of early pregnancy. I had to do another blood test and if neg then not pregnant. I went for another blood test; neg plus I had light period the day after.  I dont want to think Im pregnant but my belly is showing that I look pregnant. I had pregnancy symptoms in December but when I have monthly bleeding, symptoms disappear then comes back lightly like fatigues, nausea in the morning, tender breasts, mood swings. I always have back hach in the morning but waking up all funny. because I dont want to think i am pregnant I have been doing diet then after few days symptoms come back.  It is weird. I have enough of buying pregnancy tests as its negative and my doctor would think i am creasy. I cant do really nothing, just look after yourself; eat healthy, exercise.  Also I have been big before and my belly was empty but now my belly is full and hard. I cant do abdos because its tight like i have been doing abdos. So what I do now is marching, exercising my body but i leave my back and belly alone.
My period is lighter every month now.

Hi, I just wanted post this just in case other girls fumble across this if they happen to be googling like the rest bc if what they're going through. In March 2013 I KNEW I was pregnant. It was my first pregnancy. This may sounds strange but I knew it the day after I conceived. I felt abdominal pains, rib discomfort, back pain, trouble sleeping, increased urinating, broken out skin,etc. Surprisingly no nausea. It was like this for MONTHS. I was even getting a little belly. ALL THE HOME PREGNANCY TESTS CAME UP NEGATIVE. I took more than 10. I told myself that my mind was tricking my body itself into believing it was pregnant. I felt insane. In August I felt some pain in my ovaries and went in to the doctor. He pushed down on my uterus and got a surprised look and had me take a urine and blood pregnant test. Urine came up negative. Two days later I got a phone call saying the blood came back positive. I got a second phone call explaining everything. I had an ectopic pregnancy. It was bc it was ectopic that all the urine tests came back negative. The HcG was too low to be recognized by the tests. It was stagnant. I had to terminate the pregnancy or it would have killed me and there was no way the baby would survive either. It wasn't even growing. It just grew to a certain extent and stopped bc not enough hcg was being produced. Also, get checked for STDs bc Chlamydia (treatable) can cause ectopic pregnancies. And if you have it and leave it, can cause unreversable damage to your reproductive system making you infertile. Chlamydia has little symptoms. I showed none and still had it. I had only slept with one man. He cheated and brought it home. So I would encourage you to get yourself and your partner checked. You are not insane. You might just be an ectopic pregnancy victim. I warn you that it is emotionally stressful and saddening. Stay strong. I had read some symptoms of an ectopic and stayed in denial that that was a possibility in the very beginning. Don't learn the hard way like I did. Go get checked. Even if you are a teen. Don't let your fear keep you from getting the medical attention you need, this is your life at stake. I was 18 and still living at home with my very conservative parents. I was afraid too. It's going to be okay.

yes i am pregnant 13wks and had neg pregnan test multi times


i also heard that some women can be so pyshed about wanting to become preganat that their body can selfcon. imagine or trick itself into having preg like symptoms i cant remeber what it is called but u should do some research

Your chances of being pregnant are very close to zero.  Try to relax, and get this out of your head. It is getting to the point that your not being fair to yourself. Shake this off, and realize that you have a good 20 years left to have a child...in the mean time, enjoy your young life.  When you are older, you will quickly understand how short young adult hood really is.  Finish college, make future plans.  Move on.

Thank you all very much. And I agree. I'll wait it out, and if I really am pregnant, it will become much more obvious, as time goes by.

In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy life!

Our bodies are really strange things...every time I think I might be pregnant and I even get a neg. HPT, there are times I still think I see or am experiencing the symptoms. I think our minds can totally play tricks with our bodies to the point where you see and experience things, even if you want it or don't want it, just by thinking about it. The possibility in your case seems slim that you would be preg. but there is always a chance with everyone because there is only a 100% positive and probably only a 99% chance neg. so someone has to be in that 1%. Thus said, I would probably try to focus on exercise, having fun and enjoying life as a young person--because if you are preg. there is no changing that and you'll find out soon enough (wait a few weeks, do another test, by then it "should" come out pos. if you are) and if you are not preg. you might as well have fun and give your mind the signal to cut it out and to stop tricking you. All the best, it'll happen at the right time :)

Hi, could there be a chance that your docs have mixed your results up and indeed you are pregnant?
This had happened to me, i had no periods has was having all pregancy symtons. My hpt and doc pg test and blood test were all coming back neg. My friends all thought i was pg, i have to say i wasn't sure becaurse i took my doctors word, they thought i could be early menaporse and were testing for that.
I was very young (20) and never knew what it was like to feel pg?
They called me in one day, to tell me that the test were misplaced/mixed up and indeed i was pg, i was 26wks pg before i found out. I had an u/s the next day and gave birth to a healty baby boy at 41wks.
Sounds stupid...i know, i cant believe how niaeve i was.
I was also very slim at that time size uk 8, my belly had popped, but it was just a case of up zipping my jeans, the docs said i was a growing girl and everyone gets bigger??? lol

hi there. i just read your original post and i think the girls on there are looking for your reply :)

even if you were in a very early pregnancy, a quantitive HCG blood test would have shown up if you were pregnant or not. Just reading you post make me think youre not pregnant. However have you had an Ultrasound to make sure you havent got anything else that might be causing you these symptoms?

[nalla]

Wow, I have never heard of that before. Have you missed your period?
I would guess that anything is possible. If you are pregnant and for some reason all the tests are neg. go back to your Dr. and ask for an ultrasound. If you are indeed pregnant and showing, then the baby would be visible on an ultrasound. I guess that is what I would do if I was in your situation.
