I have been having an extremely tiring oreal for the past month.
Facts: june13- threw up ( on pill) during that nxt week had sex unprotected

june 24th: started spotting, though it was normal period but odd cos only lasted 2 days and was light.. Normally heavy bleeder.

July 1st- went to doc cos I had been having persis nausea and stomach pains... He sent me to hosp to get testing for appendicitis after he had done a urine hcg. Nurse at hosp got me to do another wee hcg which again was neg. The doc at hosp that consultd me asked few questions( not many) pressed my tummy and told me I had gastritis. The nurse looked extremely worried with this and when dr left she said if it was still persisting after med. To please come back in 3 day.

jul 4th- back to hosp they gave me a blood hcg test- negative
jul 5- saw my gp and she sent me for ultrasound- nothing unusual. Inside fine.

Jul 8th- back to first doc( same clinic..Consults wid my gp) who gave me anutha preg test (blood)

jul 11- started light spotting at 8pm- 12am bleeding was heavier so a rang mum distressed

jul 12- went back to dr at 11am my bleeding was getting heavier. My blood tests from the 8th showed neg. He sent me back to hosp to consult a gyn. At hosp started getting sharp brief lower abdo pains then feelings like I needed to push. My bleeding by this stage was bright red... Not like a norm period.

Today- bleeding has stopped, got some more sherp pains yest. My gp said yest that cos of my hcg test it is imposs that I was preg and poss it was phantom preg...I hate her!

My symptoms: rapidly increasing tummy but not eating much, huge breasts and nipples, nausea, appetite change...Weird cravings, frequency in urination, mood swing and over emotional... Tiredness from not doing much.

Please someone shed some light!!!!!!!

I am really saddened to find that no one has the compassion or wisdom to even attempt to shed some light... Thankfully I am intelligent enough at 23 to do further research and find some other answers... Im really glad that none of you regular users frequent the depression site as who knows if I had used this a few months ago and begged for help where I may be.

Thanks for the compassion... Hope you all enjoy your sleep at nite!

Even I try and help the other people on here that are in need... Even if I dont totally understand, it can be comforting to read any response!

P.S no I have established that I am not crazy and that I was pregnant and did miscarry and that in some cases womens hcg levels do not register on tests until further in their pregnancies... Thought that may be some handy info for whoever may need it.

I am sorry to hear that no one replied to your posting.

I am actually experiencing the exact same thing you are, I have also had 2 pregnacy tests also indicating that I am not preganant.
I am still experiencing light bleeding and it got bad last night so I went to the emergency room at the hospital cause I was scared. I spent 2 hours there, the test was negative, the doctor at the er told me that I could be in the early stages of pregnancy and that is propbably why they can't detect anything. I am getting nauseas but not enough to want to throw up.
I had my menzies 2 weeks ago , so the spotting scares me. The cramps come and go sometimes with sharp blasts to the lowest part of my abdomen.

My last 2 periods were late about a week off, and the bleeding on both periods persisted for about one week but was heavier than normal with big blood clots, or how doctors prefer to call them tissue.
My symtoms come and go throughout the day. I am feelingquite depressed cause no one knows what is going on. I wish I knew just to settle my nerves and know I am not crazy.
I get lower back pain so bad it hurts to bend down to put shoes on.
I have an appointment with my gp at the end of the week for a female exam.I also have had a loss of appetite.
Is there any way to detect whether someone has been pregnant but just miscarrying?

How Did You Discover You Were Miscarrying

I was reading your forum and read the other half of it.

How did you discover that you were actually pregnant and mis-carrying?
Or if anyone else reads this can your shed some light on the matter.

Since some womens hcg levels are undetected in the early stages of pregnancy, normally how early into a pregancy should a pregnancy test read hcg levels?

Why do some hcg levels read in some woman and others not at all?

Sorry its taken so long to reply I have just re-connected to the net.
When I was mis-carrying I lost more blood than a normal period, and sharp abdominal pains, the blood is also brite red also not in all cases, but in my case, I felt like I needed to poo, but just push in a different area.
I dont know why some women dont show hcg early,i gues coz every womans body is different, I hope everything is going ok
take care of yourself xo

When I was reading the most recent post..I could completely relate.. But my situation being slightly different.. I felt the same pressure.. Descibed by feeling the urge to push.. And I too lost a tremendous amount of blood.I ended up having to stay over in the emergency room..And the next morning they sent me to see my ob doctor.. And she did an ultrasound and everything was normal..The heartrate was normal and all the vitals were normal.. But they couldn't exactly tell me what was wrong.. Or what happened.. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone..

Update also: i've since had 2 doctor's appts. And both have been fine.. The baby is healthy and growing.. N i'm still confused

So I had my pelvic exam today 2 days after going to the er and they said my cervix is normal and they checked my ovaries. My doctor sz that my cervix is soft and indication that I am either still pregnant or that I have miscarried. They gave me another pregnancy test which came back negative. So I am scheduled for an ultrasound coming up monday, to reveal the cause for the cramps and the spotting and lower back pain.
My doctor believes that I am possibly miscarrying or possibly pregnant but to early to tell.

Are any of you experiencing a soft cervix aswell?
I am also having quite a bit of discharge more than the norm but today I have no spotting.
I am still experiencing dizziness and nausea.

Oh I was wondering for kates post, did you know you were pregnant right away? Did the tests come back inconclusive at first?

Hi Marina And Kate

It was so lovely to read both replys. I truly hope from the bottom of my heart that you are both well and that babies are safe. It has been quite a stressful and emotional time for me and my partner. Aside from the miscarriage we have had to move house.. My partner is a head chef so he works 55 hours a week.. Im in $1000 debt just from standard bills and moving costs and cannot find a job to help pay it back!! Aaaaaahhhhhhhh sometimes I just feel like screaming!!! Im just praying to god every night to just give me one small ray of light to help me through each day until things start looking up for me.... Hopefully this will be sooner than later...Im getting very tired! Im also annoyed because I cant fit into any of my old clothes as I am still carrying some weight from being pregnant...That sux also. I am starting some voluntary work on fridays just to keep me social and from going crazy..Cant wait till friday!! Again thanks for the response it has been my ray of light for today. Xo
if you want to check out one of my hobbies which is poetry go to the married again forum and read under wedding song, hope you enjoy xoxxo

I just wanted to say--if it's ectopic preg it may never show the hcg in the urine test, and in the blood test: although less common(to not show it) it might not show it either.

Ectopic meaning anywhere outside of uterus. My daughter in law is pregnant right now one is in the uterus and one is on the ovary. 1 in 10,000 pregnancies.

In her case it did show the hcg and from what I have gatheered it was higher than normal for baby in that week gestation. Hence 2 babies???

Still not understanding too much about it though

Miscarried

Well I found out yesterday that I have miscarried for sure. I have been really down about the whole thing but tomorrow I am finally going back to work.

Leah I am sorry to hear about your situation but things should get better for you. I am glad to hear you will be surrounding yourself with people. It is very important.

Well the technician who performed my ultrasound was incredibly rude. I was just crying in the car on the way back home. She didn't even say a single thing to me she just said she didn't see anything and not to worry about it. How can I not? She just had such a bad case of bed side manners. Well I had to drink a lot of water before the exam and I was just dyng to go to the washroom. When she was performing the ultrasound she was pressing on my tummy so hard it was awful.

I am still having cramps and the dizziness comes and goes. My friend who has also gone through a miscarriage , told me its just my body trying to get back to normal.

Tomorrow I have a follow-up doctors visit, so I don't now what will happen

take care leah and kate.

They havent called back on my u/s yet, but I seen the "corpus luteum"
that is the condition in your ovaries when the egg gets fertilized. If no fertilization it goes away with period 14 days later. I ovulated last time on july 8-12. I have middle pains every time for 5 days.
