In 1996, I swore I was pregnant. I had all the symptoms. Even a faint (extremely faint!) positive result from a hpt. But a blood test (I would have been about a week pregnant) came back negative. I was devastated. I felt betrayed by my body. A week after that, I still hadn't gotten my AF so I did another hpt in the middle of the afternoon and it was BFP. My son is now 9 1/2. I swear, you can't even count on blood tests anymore. However, most of us really do make ourselves believe we're pregnant. I'm even doing it to myself right now...and my husband had a vasectomy!!! I'm crampy, tired, bloated, weepy and have low back pain and extremely tender breasts (so tender that I can't walk too quickly). But my doctor thinks its endometriosis. So she put me on the pill. And I'm still having these symptoms! 3 negative hpt's and 1 negative blood test later, and I'm ready to jump off a bridge. I'm having an u/s done tomorrow.
