Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey everyone, I told you that I would inform you about what I found out today whether it was good news or bad news. I went in for the trans-vaginal ultrasound this afternoon and I was right all along. I had a feeling that I was pregnant. You have no idea how incredibly happy I am right now. All I can say is that nobody knows your body more than you do. If you feel that you might be pregnant and doctors and tests keep saying otherwise, you need to keep pushing your doctor for an ultrasound because if it wasn‘t for the ultrasound, then I would have never found out because all my tests kept saying negative. At one time I actually thought that I was experiencing a phantom pregnancy because I got my period last week and so I thought that my body was tricking me into believing that I was actually pregnant when in fact I wasn’t, but I am definitely pregnant. When I went in to have the ultrasound done, I informed the tech that I had got my period and that I thought that I wasn’t pregnant, but she went a head with the ultrasound, and there it was, clear as day. After the ultrasound I had an appointment to see my doctor and I told her that I had got my period the week before and that I though that something was wrong, but she assured me that everything was fine because the ultrasound showed a healthy and progressing pregnancy. She then went on to say that although it is uncommon, some women do have a period at some point in their pregnancy and some women have them throughout their entire pregnancy. I was under the impression that if you do have your period that it means that you’re not pregnant. My period was shorter than it normally is, but other than that, it was normal. She assured me that everything was fine and progressing the way it should be and that I have nothing to worry about. The ultrasound confirmed that I am 15 ½ weeks pregnant. The only thing that makes me mad about this whole situation is that it took over 15 weeks to find out what was going on. I was so ready to give up and just agree with the previous test results, but something told me to keep pushing for answers and I’m glad I did. I didn’t think it was possible to find out the sex this early, but it appears that I am having a girl. I guess trans-vaginal ultrasounds are visibly clearer than regular ultrasounds? I’ve always wanted a little girl though, and I’m looking forward to motherhood and the idea of having a daughter. I’m due on October 1st. I knew that something was going on since all my blood work came back normal. To me, something just didn’t add up because I have never been late before. Like I said, I had a feeling that I was pregnant, and I was definitely right. I would just like you thank all of you for your comments and your concern, because I really appreciate it. And for everyone else, all I can say is hang in there and try to be positive because you never know. If you think something is going on, then you should definitely keep pushing your doctor for answers until you get a clear answer as to what is going on.
