Pregnancy Info HOME

Well Girls- I'm apologizing ahead of time for what's surely going to sound like a depressed and negative post. I got my blood work back today. The thing is, I had already prepared myself for that to be negative. If the HPT's aren't picking up any HCG, then why would the blood test? But I didn't care, because I'm never late and right now I'm 2 1/2 WEEKS! Plus, I have ALL the symptoms. What's gotten me through it is hearing all the accounts of people saying they kept coming up negative even being 3 weeks late, ect. Well the test was in fact negative. I simply was looking for reassurance from the nurse who called when I ask, "But it's possible for me to still be pregnant and to just not have produced enough HCG, right?" She said she didn't know and got the doctor. He was a complete jerk to me. When I mentioned reading several instances of women taking a long time to produce the hormone... he cut me off and says, "I've spent four years in residency and four years in med school... have you read that much?" I just hung up before I started crying. Perhaps he was only doing his job by assuring me I was in fact NOT pregnant, regardless of what I felt or thought. But to be so sure, and to hear so harshly there is no way.. it's rough. He also wanted me to take a shot inducing my period. I'd rather concoct and administer my own shot than see him again any time soon. My husband still thinks it's possible, but I left myself get too excited this time, so it's negative-town for me for a while :) I just don't understand... in this very forum there are about 20 girls who say they tested negative (blood and urine) for 2-6 weeks of being late before they showed up being pregnant all along. Could they all have been wrong?
