Pregnancy Info HOME

If you were 7 1/2 weeks preggers a u/s should pick it up and im not too sure about folicles maybe goggle them they might delay periods and give you false signs of pregnancy.

I have folicles on my ovaries and I have PCOS which causes irregular periods. Blood tests show levels of HCG and if you have none and the u/s showed up neg, I would go with the pills. Can you push the IVF to Feb so you will know for sure and put your mind at ease? I wanted so bad to be prego 6 months ago I did not have a period for two months, then it came. My doctor told me it was stress and hormones and the PCOS. Good Luck

Yes,You could be pregnant even you get negative blood result. In my case, I had so many negative tests(10 times Urine & 5 times in blood), But I had pregnancy symptoms like headache, feeling tired & missed periods. my symptoms seems that I was pregnant. I was 4 months pregnant when they confirmed by u/s. So,Don't take pills if you think you are pregnant. Miracles can happen anytime, anywhere. Women vary, Some women does not have enough hcg to detect, So tests may show negative when they are actually pregnant. Wait few more weeks, Get blood test & u/s again. You will know what's going on. Don't lose your hope, By the meanwhile Don't be overconfident. You should avoid stress, Eat healthy, I think you don't need to go with IVF. I really believe you are pregnant. Let us know updates. Good luck.

Thanks alot for your replies. Still no periods, Feeling tired & pregnancy symptoms,I am going to wait for few more weeks, Then, I am going to check with my Dr. I will update.

Still I am in confusing mind. My question is if it is baby, I can wait, Otherwise If I wait, I have to miss my chance(I mean IVF), We started dreaming about our baby. Waiting & not knowing is horrible. Someone told me that sometimes u/s don't show the baby when they are really pregnant. Because It is too small to find out. But what I am saying is, If so, How will they detect heartbeat in such cases? I started to take multivitamins like folic acid & citracal.

Please give your comments.

I think you need to find a new doctor. They need to do a thorough U/S before putting you on those meds. If you are 7 weeks past your missed period that would mean you are currently like 11 weeks pregnant? Have a new doc give a second opinion and explain that your mom had a similar experience. At 11 weeks the baby would be very visable by ultrasound. Keep us posted! Good luck! :o)

My last menstrual period was 28th October. I am 56 days(2 months) pregnant if I am. I am not 11 weeks pregnant. How about u/s? Is it possible to check and find out a baby? Any way I am going to check with Dr. for second opinion by next week(9 weeks). Am I 8 weeks pregnant or 4 weeks late on my periods? How should I calculate? I am having some pain like abdominal cramping & Leg cramping. Feeling tired. No short or heavy periods. My IVF programme has scheduled. During Jan, They are going to put me on IVF. I did not tell a word to my nurse, because I am scare of it. If she tell me to take provera, How can I? Because Still I am in dilemmo. I really feels that I am pregnant, I don't know why? I am not under stress or anything. So, I don't know what's the next step I should do? Can you give me ideas? Thanks.

you would be 8 weeks pregnant this Saturday, the 23rd....and by now, if you had a u/s the baby would be big enough to see on u/s..If you think you are pregnant, demand another u/s from your doctor before you start any medications. If they don't see anything on the u/s now, then you are not pregnant.

Thanks again for your reply. Still no periods, Frequent urination, Morning sickness(No vomiting sense)Tender,Sore & Swollen breasts I have. I am going to get my ultrasound done by this Friday(29th December), Hope this new year brings us a very sweet news and bring newcomer to our home.

How about Ultrasound? Can ultrasound show baby when 2 months pregnant. How about the size?

Thanks.

If you have an U/S on Friday you'll be almost 9 weeks. You should see the sac, fetal pole, heartbeat, and a small "bean" shape (that's starting to take the shape of a baby). At 9W1D i saw the baby waving her/his arms and kicking his feet. You can look up lots of U/S images online showing you what each week should look like. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you... hope you get great news on Friday!!!! :o) Let us know!

Blood test result was negative. They did not explain about that in detail. They did u/s. He saw just one minute & tool inches of ovaries. I had 8 folicles in my right ovary & 4 in left. I still have no period(65 days) & pregnancy symptoms. I am not going to take the pills to get back my periods. I am going to wait & take second opinion. I saw the people who got negative pregnancy results when are they actually pregnant. what do you think? Does anybody has same experience and turned out pregnant? Happy new year & good luck.

Seethalakshmi, I am not a dr, but having issues with your ovaries and long periods sounds to me like PCOS, Poly Cycstic Ovarian Syndrome. I have it, but I don't have any cysts. I take Metformin which regluates your period, helps with Insilin and helps you ovulate to get pregnant. It only took me a few months. If you think if could be possilbe see an endocrinologist or a good OBGYN, but some DR's are skeptical, I saw 3 that would not even test me and said it was so over diagnosed. But keep your head up, if you have PCOS and you go on the pill, it will regulate your periods, but once you come off and try to get pregnant, it will be just as hard again.

Thanks for your information. Actually I took metformin. I did not take metformin when I think I am pregnant. When I take metformin, my period came very correct time(Like clock work), I did not have PCOS. Dr confirmed that. Any way I will get second opinion. My stomach is getting bigger, I am having frequent urination, tender & swollen breast I never had. Any way I will give you updates soon. If you have any idea about my situation, please let me know.

Happy new year once again.

Hi, Still no periods(74 days-10 and half weeks pregnant), Hoping for the best, I am having blue veins in my breasts & legs. I don't know why it came. Can anyone knows about these veins? Is this one of the pregnancy symptoms? I also have gassy, leg cramps & constipation problem. I am going to check with ultrasound after two weeks. I am scare of seeing that blue veins. Anyone please help me?

Yes, when pregnant the veins in your breasts and in your legs become more prominent due to the increased blood flow. If you aren't pregnant, I have no idea. Good luck and keep us posted.

Thanks for the information. My last menstrual period was 28th October. My pregnancy symptoms are missed periods(10 and half weeks pregnant If I am), tender & swollen breasts, sore boobs, frequent urination, gassy, constipation, Extreme hunger & tired, Whitish discharge(often), Blue veins in the body(Especially in the breasts & legs), leg cramps, stomach cramping(Not all the time, sometimes) & My stomach getting bigger & hard, I am taking care of myself, I already took citracal tablets. I did not check blood test recently. I am having appointment on 25th January. Could I be pregnant with these symptoms which I have written here. Any one has these symptoms and got negative blood test result & finally turned out to be pregnant? Really appr eciate your ideas. Please help me.

O.K....really, you need to stop putting this off and make them give you an ultrasound of your UTERUS, not your ovaries!! Babies don't grow in your ovaries!!! If the u/s shows there is no baby, then you are NOT pregnant and need to figure out why you are not getting your period.......but this has been going on for almost a month now and by now, a home and blood test would have to be positive if you were pregnant.
