Your blood test would have came up
positive if you are that far along. Your
blood work is more accurate than your
urine. Did you get a pelvic exam done?

Blood tests measure the level of pregnancy
hormones in your blood.If you have been
stressing about being or not being
pregnant,that can throw off your cycle.Did
your doctor do a thorugh pelvic exam?If
not,get one done and have a complete
bloodwork-up done.This was probably not
done when they did preg test.Good luck to
you.Patty

Yes I did get a pelvic exam. But the
thing is for my past two appointments, I
haven't been seeing my regular doctor and
this new doctor does not have the
slightest clue. I have been reading on
the internet in forums like these where
this one female had a negative urine and
blood test until she was 10 weeks
pregnant. So there is the slight chance
that it can happen. I notice that my
stomach is getting bigger and he's trying
to tell me that I am not pregnant. I
guess I just have to go to my doctor or a
new one. I have missed two periods now.
So I would be going on my 10th week if I
am.

Have your cycle always been regular? Also
the pelvic exam would have shown that your
pregnant by the enlargement of you uterus.
