False Or Hysterical Pregnancy? Posted: 04-19-05 00:55am
Has anyone heard of or had any experience
with hysterical or false pregnancies?
Where you have symptoms of pregnancy but
are not actually pregnant? I was told in
february that I had a miscarriage, but I
never stopped having symptoms. So much
so that my stomache and even my breasts
are getting bigger. Any thoughts?

Yeah I Heard. Posted: 04-19-05 04:29am
I had been reading up on the internet
about pregnancies that were false, I
hadn't heard of them myself either but I
was reading that it is quite common for
women to feel all the symptoms of
pregnancy but have an empty sac, with no
baby/embryp inside it. This was known as
an empty sac pregnancy, it results in
misscarriage. In early scans ther may be
no sight of a embryo or beginning of a
baby but sometimes in later scans the
embryo can appear and the pregnancy is
successful. You should try looking it up
on the net it is shocking some of the
stories, but it can happen?
