Pregnancy Info HOME

Melissa...If you miscarried, which my gut tells me you did not, there would still be levels of hcg(pregnancy hormone) in your blood...A hp test can still show a positive even if you miscarried the month before...Maybe something just tweeked your cycle a bit ie: stress or something...Best of luck conceiving a healthy happy baby in 2005.

Nei...First and foremost, you can still get pregnant if your man pulls out...Sometimes, he may dribble a bit before being fully out and most men prejaculate...Pulling out will not prevent anything and if you don't want to become pregnant, you need to find a safer form of birth control! Stress can definately tweek your period...Weight loss can definately affect your cycle as well...If you're continuously getting UTI, maybe you should get a kidney test done...A woman that has more than 3 UTI's in a year should be checked for kidney infections. From what you have explained, I do not think you pregnancy is the only cause of your concerns...Focus on school and on practicing safe protected sex...Establish goals and a career before starting a family...Oh, I wish I was 19 again!

I am 6 days late have taken two first response pregnancy tests.Both have been negative.Even took the last test first thing in the morning! Any advice?

Why would i be having white zit like spots near my nipples and a clear discharge???Please help thank you!!

Hey guys! I have been reading this forum for almost two weeks. I have seen a lot of information and have been running it past my obgyn nurse and midwife. Here is my story. I had my period on Dec 19 and again on Jan 13. I have a 25 - 28 day cycle. My last normal period was in November. The past two have been really light and no cramps, which never happens for me. I have all the symptoms of pregnancy. White bumps and tendernes of the breast(occasionally), nausia, dizzy, increased breast size, milk from my breasts, frequent urination, I have a pouch now, tired and yet I have tested neg on my hpt's and blood work. I just had a full physical done so I know that it is not anything bad (I had a CBC and full panel run) I do that every year as a precaution. My doc told me to wait until I miss a period because I will not test pos or wait until the next cycle to see if it is abnormal. If it is then my insurance will pay for the ultrasound. So he told me to act as if I am preg and take care of myself to make sure that I am getting the proper nutrients. I can not wait until the ultrasound so I can stop driving my husband and myself crazy. This is the worst thing in the world because it alters your life so much. I want that pos before I begin jumping for joy. I am in mid cycle right now and still no signs as I did not seem to have one last month. I usually spot during midcycle and get cramps. Makes it easy for conception. I feel like I am crazy. My doc and everyone around me is convenced I am preg, but I am a skeptic. Now, in the state I live in they have a medical help line that is offered by the hospital and you have registered nurses and obgyn nurses. So I asked them how can you be preg and still test neg. They explained yes women have periods while being preg, some don't skip a beat. If you are having a period you will not test pos on a test because HCG is what helps to stop your period, so then the levels are not high enough. I began asking women who had given birth before and one of my friends has had 3 and all three preg she did not test pos until 4 and 5 mo's preg. Every women is different. I also just spoke with a woman today who is going to give birth in the next two weeks and she did not test pos until 29 days after her last period. Oh, I was told by the nurse that spoting counts as a period to the docs. I was told by the nurse that 15 to 20% of women go through this and you can test neg clear through a preg, but usually at 12 - 16 weeks they recomend that you test to avoid wasting money. I know that I have thrown countless dollars away on neg tests. She then told me that she had a women who had twins who never tested pos. She had to do an ultra sound to confirm her preg. I have herd time and time again HCG levels being 0 and then the next week they are off the charts. I have found a lot of miss information on the internet which drove me to the horses mouth a MidWife and she told me that some women do leak milk as early as the first trimester and that everyone is different. I asked that question because I also found that it could be breast cancer of hormones and the information I found on the internet said that women do not lactate in the first trimester, which she said was wrong. Sorry for the long message and I can ask her questions that you might have and some of the questions I have seen on here I have already asked I am leaving it out for now to save space. I am in the same boat as all of you. Waiting and wondering and hoping. Congratulations to all of you who finally received the news and good luck to all of you who are wondering. It is never fun to not know what is going on with your body and especially when it seems the docs don't know either.

mommieof1 - The white bumps are enlarged sweat glands. It is a symptom of preg or an agrivated gland. Is the clear discharge from your breast? If yes, I was told this is normal for preg, but you should let your doc know. It can be something else and they should be the one to rule that out. However, the midwife said it is your body preparing for the baby. Hope that helps. When I got my first white bump I immediatly called the nurse hot line and my doc's office.

Well, I'm about 48 days late and still have negitive hpt. I figure if my period doesn't show up by Feb. 10 I will make an appt. with my midwife. I too have some of those little white bumps around my nipples. If I am pregnant then I am about 11 weeks. At times I feel a little nausous, also about a month ago I had a lot of lightheaded dizzy feelings, but it hasn't been too bad recently. I have also had quite a few headaches, and I have just been even more run down. I can't say that I've been peeing anymore than usual, I usually have to go about every three hours. I keep telling myself I'm not pregnant, especially considering I had my tubes tied over a year ago. the last time I skipped my cycles was after my last depo-provera shots over a year ago. After that shot I went 5 months with no period but I wasn't worried about it because that is one of the effects of the shot. now that the depo-provera has gotten out of my system I had 3 months of normal cycles the last one being Nov. 8, 2004. Since then I haven't even spotted. I just wish I could find out what is going on.

To: "A Friend"...Hey, thanks for the advice. After being over a week late on my period it finally showed up outta no where yesterday so I guess the scare is over. But I'll definitely heed your advice to avoid this from happening until I'm ready. thanks a lot!

Hi all..I'am 12 days late now,and i took another pg test yesterday and still negative...But i'am feeling funny things going on in my stomache anyone eles feeling this??..I feel like i'am going nuts..ty

Thank you for this helpful site! I am a couple of days late, which doesn't seem to be a big deal since my cycle has been running 34 days long, but I have been feeling crampy for probably five days and keep feeling like I'm going to have my period any moment. Also having weird stomach issues, nausea, big time bloating, some tiredness, but no other symptoms and am afraid of over-analyzing myself. Took a test yesterday and it was negative. My cramps/weird stomach feelings are almost constant. I wonder when to take another test?

hey everyone ive been bleeding for 11 days now-still the same light in colour and amount, its really confusing me as it doesnt seem to be slowin down. i am excessively tired and my mums started to notice that im not myself-it might just be because im worrying about whats happening to my body. im going to try and get an appointment to see my dr tomorrow because i cant go on not knowin. before this bleeding started i was 3 weeks late on my period and now im coming up to the date im supposed to be on again-but obviously im still bleeding. does any1 know any information about why i might be bleeding for so long?-i know the morning after pill mucks up your cycle but this is ridiculas! any information would really help. thanx

it could be ur just stressed out the reason your so tired,but my period was late for a month, and i was scared, but the doctor told me it was normal for most teens that play sports. i think your doing the right thing by testing, but if u want to be for sure i would go to the health department. Because the health department keep everything between u and them, your parents will only find out if you tell them urself.

I am 25...Married and a mom to a 4 year old son...Have been trying to become pregnant again for a couple of months now...Should have gotten my period the 17th of January...Tried especially hard to conceive during the 4 days ovulation was supposed to take place...Dec 31-Jan 3rd...Feeling nauseous, breasts are a bit sore, but negative hpt results...I've taken about 10 of them...What are my chances of being pregnant? How long after a missed period would a positive prego result show if I were prego? Would it be better and more accurate if I get a blood test? I feel a bit crampy occasionally and have had some sharp pains in my lower abdomen...Maybe an ovarian cyst, or something? Thanks a bunch for responding.

I'm having all the same symptoms as you are! I'm now 16 days late and still no positive tests. I went to the doctor to have them do a urine test and they came up with a negative result too! I'm trhinking about trying a blood test now, but still there are no guarentees with that either in the first trimester. I had a pap and a buch of other tests done the day after I missed and they couldn't find anything physically wrong with me ( ie cysts etc. ) So they have ruled that out. The doctor advised that I have to just wait and if in two more weeks I still have to period they will test me again for pregnancy. Just the waiting is stressing me out! So I know exactly where you're coming from. I'm sore and tired and cramping every now and again. All the women I've spoken to say that they tested prego withing the first couple days of they're missed period, so I'm so glad to have found this site and know that otrher women are going through the same painstaking waiting I am. Thanx for everyones contributions!

Well what can I say - everyone on the site is having the same experience. Having slight cramping, funny feelings in the tummy area. Whcih I will add seem very hard just above pubic hair line, headache but negative tests. Last period 11th December just over 2 weeks late. What do people suggest is wrong with me!!!!
