Pregnancy Info HOME

I don't understand how a blood test can turn out negative then positive. I guess we should be asking for an HCG test or ultrasound since none of these tests work.

Hi i just want to say its happened to me, i had been told for 16 years i couldnt have kids and i took a urine test couple days before my period and had period, then 1 week later 1 started spotting, i then didnt think i would fall preg, i just finished round of ivf and then went to the hospital to find i was 8 weeks preg and didnt know it.

it turned out to be ectopic

Hey everyone,, wow, and the doc's say can't be preggy and still get period,,lol I had sex in beginning of august,, found out it was an " ovulation" time,, but got peiod. I was relieved, but for some reason had a nagging feeling i was preggy. Let me mention that i am 34 yrs old mom of 10 year old boys,, so becoming preggy wasn't something i was wanting,, but would deal with it.. anyways to make a long story short,, took 3 hpt,, all negative,, few weeks later, still felt preg,, breasts,, tired,, veins on my aereólás,, bloated,, and nauseaus,, so went to doctor blood work. It came back negative, so i didn't think anymore about it. I was getting periods pretty much on time,, and it's now november 21 and guess what i'm pregnant,, so you absolutely can get periods and be pregnant,, i guess you can't call them periods,, but you can still "bleed" and you can still get negative results and still be pregnant,, i'm now 3 1/2 months along... trust your bodies ladies

I had a period on Sep 24, I skipped October so I took a 2 HPT's and they were negative. I started feeling sick in the morning, my hair is growing out of control, I am gassy and I feel little flutters every now and then. I went to the doctor and took a blood test and it was negative. He told me that I can take it again next week but all of a sudden this past Tuesday I started spotting and on Wednesday I started bleeding heavy and cramping badly. Now I'm not bleeding that much but my stomach is still cramping. I wasn't going to take the blood test next week but after reading these articles I think I will just in case? I have been pregnant before but I never bled. I also never missed a period and not been pregnant. Thanks for helping me make the decision to go and take the test. Doctors aren't always right!

Ladies, i just want you to know that after 2 neg blood test and 6 neg hpt, i just fount out that i am eight weeks pg. so you can be pg and get neg test.good luck to everyone!!!!!!!!!!

Kristina what hope!!!!
Here is my story, please tell me what you think. My last period was October 4. I have taken so many hpt and all negative. I took a blood test and got the results today. They were negative. My hcg level is below 5. My question is: could I still be pregnant? My doctor has me on prometrium to bring my period down. However it has not come yet.(I am on day 7 of 12 days) I have sore breasts on and off, my basal temp is elevated and has beeen the last week or so, I pee all of the time, I feel flutters at times, and my belly button was really sore about two weeks ago.
DH and I have been trying about a year now and I would love to be pregnant. I just don't understand these symptoms. Does anyone think I still may be, I hate to think my instict is this wrong, but if it is I guess we will keep trying. Thanks!!!

I'm having the same problem, I'm 10 days late, and I am never late, always 28 days to the hour. this month is the first month I've ever been late. My Husband and I have been trying for a baby for 4 months now. I found out 2 months ago that I had an ovarian cyst. I have very sore breasts, and unusual cramping in my lower abdomin, but very different to the pain I had from the cyst, also not like pre menstual pain. I have had 3 negative Hpt's and 1 negative Blood test. But I don't feel right, if I'm not pregnant than there is definately somthing wrong. I have a gynae appointment today and he is going to do a scan to see if he can see if there is anything there. Fingers Crossed!!!

kim, i would wait another weeks or so. your temp being up is a pos sign. hang in there, you never know. good luck to you

Well I am in this boat too..somehow. The first day of my last period was October 2. I have taken numerous preg. tests and had a blood test at the doctor's yesterday...which came back negative. I am having a ton of preg. symptoms (this would be my second) and my belly has begun to harden already. The doctor has actually scheduled an ultrasound for Monday for me. Taking a stab at it...I would guess that I am about 9 weeks pregnant (if I add two weeks to the conception date). I am 59 days from the first day of my last period. I am not sure what to do.

very interesting to see what other women are going through. i am always on a 28 day cycle, and this time i am late, but right now only late by 4 days. i did a home pregnancy test, and my doctor had me do a blood test, both were negative. i wasnt planning to be pregnant, but i have had gas, my face has broken out, my belly is really bloated, i am very tired, and my legs ache. my breasts have been sore, some days worse than others, and they have increased in size so much i have actually broken a bra down the center (in the cleavage area). i have never been pregnant so i dont have anything to compare my feelings to. maybe i am just having really exaggerated pms, but that is not what i am feeling in my gut. i guess judging by these answers, i am going to have to wait a bit longer, and see what happens. thanks for all the info.

Hello All
My story is the same except that I am on the pill as well. I just feel pregnant, my second time around. I can't explain it, but I have all the pregnancy symptoms. Cramping, hunger, sore breasts, peeing, fluttering, nausea, once vomiting, etc, etc. Problem is I have started my period, a little late but still. I just still feel pregnant, my body says I am but tests say negative. All your stories gives me hope! Is there other people who this has happened to the second time around but not the first? And while using contraception? Thanks for your encouragement!

Can all of you who eventually found out they were pregnant please tell us how this came about in the end? Did you finally have a positive test?

Many of you need to see a doctor and have an ultrasound done. This would confirm 100% if you are pregnant.

AG - I'm afraid that is not so easy when you live in the UK. They don't just do US's. In some cases they don't even want to do bloodtests. And you only have 1 doctor, no chance of seeing a different one for a second opinion. You sound a bit unsympathetic to me...

I agree about the US. I am having one on Monday. I would demand to have one. I guess it's hard in the UK because of the health care system, but maybe you could talk to your doctor.
