Fatigue hit me like a bus about 2 wks ago
on a Sunday night, just felt exhausted
this was 4 days from the end of my period
bout 3 days after sex than flu type
symptoms & cramps in additon to the
EXTREME fatigue, than I felt fine over the
weekend, more sex (we use the withdrawl
method - I know that is not really a
method), and Monday I woke up, went to
work than randomly weird cramps and just
this weird feeling that I was pregnant
(this would be my 1st), my boobs hurt too
but they always do during PMS and they
didn't hurt any more than usual, cept it
was a week and a half before my period -
which was strange, but I rarely get cramps
and if I do it's real close to my period -
like a day before and 1st day of. I also
noticed I had a more than usual amount of
gas (sorry). some discharge but I get that
during the month - not trying to get Preg
so I don't really pay much attention to
that. i'm 30 so if I am it's cool...and if
not...cool. Just wondering what others
think...also I took two tests - but it's 6
days before my next period...both neg.
today I went to docs and took quanitative
blood test - they said it was early but
they would try. get results tomorrow

ok so I got a negative blood test, but the
doc said it was way too early. And said
that even though i may have symptoms
(which she said is actually pretty common
for some women, like those women who can
feel the change in thier body when they O)
she said you sometimes need to miss a
period before the hormone will show up on
a blood test even. She said everyones
different but if I feel the same symptoms
through this next week and no period than
I need to come back and get retested. I
feel like I'm losing my mind...my boobs
are now killing me aching...and my cramps
are actually ok today, but new symptom
today...I ate breakfast and took my
vitamen, felt REALLY ill, decided it was
the v's fault so I disregarded it...2
hours later...I was starving so I had
lunch and was fine, just tired as usual,
than a couple hours later I wanted
something else - forgot I had brought
yogert in and grabbed a brownie (I usually
love brownies) and got to the
lunchroom...went to open the brownie and
felt like if I smelled it anymore I would
puke...tossed it on the counter and
grabbed a yogert..hit the spot! Than 1/2
hour later was starving AGAIN...so I
grabbed another yogert, than 1/2 hour
later starving yet AGAIN! and really
craving a cheeseburger...and I hate red
meat....never eat it...didn't get it
though cause my mom talked me out of
it.... Just confused...my body is saying
one thing to me and the tests are saying
another...WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME!!! I'm
30 and have NEVER felt this weird...so
either having a random weird PMS crazy
thing or the tests were taken too
early....

Blood tests can detect a pregnancy earlier
than a home pregnancy test. They can
detect it about 7-12 days from possible
conception and can also measure the
concentration of human chorionic
gonadotropin hormone in your blood. This
can be very helpful information for your
doctor in tracking certain problems in
pregnancy. If you suspect any symptoms of
pregnancy like delayed menstrual period,
breast tenderness, pelvic pain, irregular
spotting or vomiting. You must get a
pregnancy blood test done to confirm or
rule out pregnancy.

A blood test performed at a clinic has a
99% accuracy rate and can detect pregnancy
earlier than most urine tests. It is
possible to have a blood test for
pregnancy testing as early as 7 days after
a woman ovulates. This is approximately a
week before a woman's period is due
pregnancy blood tests have more advantages
than urine tests. Pregnancy blood test can
calculate the concentration of hCG hormone
production in your blood, which the urine
test cannot provide.
The pregnancy confirmation will be earlier
than a urine test at a minimum of 7-12
days after fertilization.

well you were wrong...unfortunatly I was
pregnant and have just had a
miscarraige...so at least be a bit humble
and realize that you were wrong. Doc says
the blood test was wrong because
implantation was not complete, therefore
no hormone was released to be picked up in
the blood test...also some women just
don't produce a high enough level to be
caught for a while...even on a blood
test....right before the mc I tested
positive, only to start bleeding a lot two
days later, so please, be a bit more
supportive and realize that just because
it is not the norm...it doesn't mean it
doesn't happen.

I just read this and she had all the
symptoms of being pregnant. My sister
took 3 trips to the doctor before she was
diagnosed pregnant and the doctor isnt
always right. Currently, Im in school for
nursing, and basically everybodys hcg is
different. The positive results from the
test is determined by your bays hcg... In
order for the test to be accurate, your
hcg has to reach a certain percentage. If
its negative and you are still pregnant,
then it could be your babys hormones
werent strong enough. IM not suprised that
you were pregnant.

Could I be pregnant? Posted: 01-24-08 17:45pm
For the past two weeks, my nipples have
been sore. I have also started feeling
nauseated, and have started having hot
flashes. I am bleeding a little bit, but
only when I wipe myself. I have taken
several pregnancy tests and they all come
back negative. What should I do?
