help!!

So I'm really sure I'm pregnant. I have all the symptoms. But I won't show up positive on a test because the hormone isn't strong enough. But I have cramping hardness and So moody. And I haven't had my period since November but I miscarried in December. Does anyone think I'm pregnant.

You could still be exhibiting signs of the pregnancy because it takes awhile for the hormones to leave your system after a miscarriage.  My friend miscarried and they told her she could still get a positive pregnancy test up to 15 weeks later.  If you're still worried, go to your doctor and get a medical grade test.

Well the test says negative but when I got pregnant the first time and miscarried it said negative but I really was pregnant. My mom didn't test positive until 4 and a half months cuz the hormone isn't strong enough. I think I have the same thing.

If your sure that your pregnant, why not go to the doctors and have blood work and an ultra sound done....and I agree after a miscarriage it can take your body sometime to be back to normal and for the hormones  to leave your system...But if your sure then I would be speaking to your doctor...

I am only 16 and my mom doesn't know. So the ultrasound can't happen and they won't do it until I am for sure pregnant. But I had a blood test Friday I have to wait until Monday for the results I'm going crazy.

Well your first step then would be to sit down and talk to your mother about it...Being 16 and pregnant is not easy, I was a 17 year old mother...This isn't something you can keep hid forever sooner or later it's going to come out...and your going to need support...and if your not pregnant you should really look into some form of birth control...and if you have had a miscarriage did you make sure you went so they could make sure that nothing was left inside of you? because that alone can cause some serious problems...From the sounds of things again you should really be sitting down and talking to your mother, and getting on some form of birth control...

I was on birth control and got pregnant. My aunt put me on it. But I was on it for 2 weeks and got  pregnant. But then after I miscarried. I stopped taking it. But had sex in February. With only a condom. I thought that I was pregnant with twins but I only miscarried once. So I could be pregnant from the first time or the second time in February.

all tho I have already wrote back in you in another form you have pretty much the same thing wrote, you would never know it was twins with no ultra sound, and you got a negative test? So maybe you weren't pregnant at all and what you thought was a miscarriage was just your period...Symptoms are not reliable by any means...and if you miscarried did you make sure you went to your doctor so they could look you over, do an ultra sound? all that to make sure that everything is alright and there was nothing left behind to cause some sort of infection...and with out a period it's very uncommon to get pregnant has happened but no often by any means...

Well I experienced the symptoms so quickly and they run in me and my partners side of the family so it was an assumption. But It was a miscarriage.

Ok, but you have been to a doctor regarding your miscarriage? So they made sure that everything was ok with you, and that nothing was left over from it that could cause any infection?

I'm really confused. So you had a confirmed pregnancy in December I assume? (by a test, NOT assumption or anything) As for twins, you would have a positive test because you would be over 4 months pregnant. This isn't something you just do and put off. You need to be open with your parents and figure things out. If you are pregnant you need proper care, not to mention you will need their help in paying for things.

sounds like an uninformed person who has no idea what is going on.  16 and mother knowing or not, she needs to go to a doctor.  An almost every place I know of has free clinics for this.  Shoot, you can even find phone numbers for stuff like this in bathroom stalls!  

BREE:  if you can't talk to your mother, talk to a guidance counselor, or teacher, or school nurse, or your aunt, or ANYONE over the age of 18 who can help you figure out what is going on.

Yes I have stated that in many posts to her that she needs to see a doctor and speak to her mother, she just keeps saying the same things over and over again...i'm not really sure she actually knows whats going on with herself...It's sad!...I know in Canada you don't need your parent with you if you are 16 for anything over here as far as seeing your doctor...I think someone needs to sit down with you and talk to you about pregnancy and birth control because you do seem like a very uninformed person...

Having symptoms of pregnancy does not meanf or SURE that you are pregnant.
If you believe you are, when really are not, then the symptoms may persist and delay your period.
I've had symptoms of "pregnancy" and not been pregnant, so try not to assume that until you get a positive test.

You need to tell your mom, it's hard, but do it. She's going to find out unless you either miscarry again, or get an abortion, which depending on your state, you may need paretnal approval for.

Honestly, I think you're too young to be having sex in the first place, but that's just me. If you don't want to get pregnant, if you aren't anyway, do something more to protect yourself. You're still young, try to live your life.

I'm not much older than you, but I know there is no way I could've ever handled a child at 16, not say it's impossible, but it does put a lot of things on hold, so maybe you should take the steps to protect yourself in the future if you're not pregnant now.

Good luck.

people are calling you "uninformed" because you got online and told the world that you were sure you are pregnant when you have not had a pregnancy test.  you were saying you refused to involve basically any adult in your life who could help you out.  Basically you were not uninformed, you were being ignorant.  I pray to God that you did not ignore help so long that you did damage to your innocent baby.

This is supposed to be a helpful website. I did involve my aunt. And I did take a test but the hormone was low so it said negative and I watched what I ate I took care of My body the way I was supposed to. So I'm not ignorant. Or uninformed.

It's extremely rare for a test to ever show an inaccurate answer, especially if you've been pregnant since December, but from what you've said I assume you tested once and then just assumed? Or have you tested since then. The only reason this happens is because the hCG doubles every 2 days in a viable pregnancy, so the hormone doesn't just stay too low to never show. It gets into the thousands or hundreds of thousands while pregnant. For it to be too low to register on the test it would have to be lower than 100.

So taking all this into consideration, being 4 months pregnant (roughly) your hCG should be someplace around 13,000-280,000.
