Has Anybody Had This Happen, What Was Wrong? Posted: 07-08-05 09:52am
I have had one child, so I know how it
feels to be pregnant. I have felt
pregnant since the end of march.
Headaches, nausea, etc, the list goes on.
I did a few home tests and they were all
negative, the doctor did a blood test and
that was negative too. I have had
bleeding every month but since april it
has only lasted a day or two each time.
The doctor also tested for a hormone
imbalance. All the tests were negative.
I concluded that I am not pregnant but now
I notice that my pants don't button and my
stomach is very firm which is
unfortunately not the norm for me. I
can't shake the feeling that I still may
be pregnant even though it seems
impossible. I still feel pregnant. Has
anyone had a situation like this? What
was wrong? I didn't know where my
question fit in so I decided to ask here
figuring that you ladies may have had a
similiar experience or know someone that
did. I am going to shut up now and hope
for some helpful input. Thanks! Jen

The only thing that I can suggest is have
the doctor do an ultrasound on you to find
out if there is a little one growing
inside you! :)

I have another appt. The 19th. I don't
think that he will do an u/s to see if I
am pregnant unless I get a positive test.
An ultrasound is what I am hoping for
though. How often do people get negative
results for a blood test. I thought they
were pretty accurate. I would be happy if
I were pregnant but I have a surgery
scheduled for september on my eyes and I
don't want to put it off. My vision is
deteriorating quickly. A baby would be
the only good reason to feel this crappy
though. :)

Yeah, feeling crappy is horrible...I'm
feeling it right now all day long! :) if
there is something wrong with you
internally they need to do an ultra sound
anyway to see if there is something wrong
or not wrong and just pregnant. There
has to be another alternative if he won't
do the ultra sound. May be go to a
different doctor and tell them about it,
get a second opinion or even go see if you
can go to the hospital and get one done.
Something has got to be going on for your
periods to be acting that weird and
gaining weight also...You know what I
mean?

Hi, you know my neighbor across thestreet
is having the exact same thing happening
to her. She should be in her second
trimester by now. They have her taking
prenatel viatimins just in case. I
suggest you do the same. Try to not do
anything you wouldnt do when you were
preg. Take it easy. Tell us how the
ultrasound goes. I saw my first
ultrasound at 9weeks 5 days.

I really would be so freaked out if I was
pregnant because I was very careful what I
ate and drank when I was pregnant with my
son. The only things that I would worry
about would be all the caffiene that I
have consumed and the occasional beer at
cookouts. I did buy some prenatal
vitamins. I would be happy but worried.

When I first thought I was pregnant I was
careful. Then the doctor said that I
wasn't so I stopped worrying about it.
For about a month I was convinced that I
couldn't be then the doubt started up
again. I probably didn't do any damage.
I am talking 5 beers over the course of a
month. I am being careful again. I am a
worry wart by nature :0) thanks for the
replies ladies. I will let you know what
happens. I appreciate any input from
anyone that has an opinion.

Wanting to Get Pregnant!! Posted: 07-09-05 23:45pm
I am 36 yrs. Old & my husband is 45
but we want a child. Yes i've had other
children but none that are still w/me @
home. My hubby has a low sperm count
& a sm. Problem w/erectile

anything else b-cause of heart problems.
Also my menstrual cycles are not very
predictable. Any suggestions on how we
can get pregnant asap?

I don't know...Only thing I can suggest is
for both of you to see a specialist and
talk to him/her and see what they tell
you. Good luck!
