I called the doc today.The blood test I
took came back negative but she told me
that it was probably too early to tell.I
mean my gosh how far along do you have to
be for it to show up.If I count from my
last normal period then I should be 10
weeks but if you count from conception
then I should be around 8 weeks.I took the
test on 09-21-05.They did the urine test
that day but I still had a little blood in
there from where I had spotted the day
before and it came back negative.I have
all the symptoms and I think im pregnant
but I cant get the durn test to show it
yet.It is about to drive me nuts.Im going
to wait until I am supposed to get my
period again and then go to an obgyn
instead of a clinic.That way they can do
an u/s to make sure.Hopefully ill know
then.My mom thinks im pg cause of
everything that im doing.When should it
show up on a blood test?Please tell me.

Blood test are normally not wrong but well
you could be producing the hormone alot
slower then normal. That might be why
its not showing up. I would just keep
waiting and testing but defineatly act as
though your pg just incase. It sounds
like you are. An u/s would be the best
idea.

This may sound gross but when I went to
the bathroom earlier when I wiped I had
this thick clear discharge on the tp.It
was very gross but what do you think it
could be?Ive never had that before.Ive
also got this breaking out on my upper
torso (back, top of arms, and top part of
chest).It is a little itchy but not too
bad and it just came up on thursday.I
havent eaten anything id be allergic too
or used any different kinds of
anything.What could that be?Sorry for the
details and for all of the questions.

Ok the discharge is normal when your pg.
It happens. Breaking out in zits and
stuff is normal too. Its your hormones
your body is changeing since you sound
like you are pg. Anyway those are kinda
in a way signs too that you could be pg.

Well they arent zits.Its just like little
tiny raises in the skin.Its weird and I
have had zits on my face and I never get
them.Maybe one or two around my period but
nothing like this.Im just so tired of
waiting.Now im probably going to have to
wait until time for my period again before
I go back to the doc.I started spotting 5
days earlier than when my period was
supposed to start this time.Do I need to
wait until around that time next month or
my usual time?I dont have the money to be
going all the time and I dont have any
insurance at the moment.Thanks for the
comments.

Buy a home pg test and try again in a week
or so.. But still act as though you
are... Better to be safe then sorry...
My mom tells me that everytime I expressed
concern with my babies...

Heather I am in your boat. I keep having
this niggling feeling that I am pregnant.
Even tho every test I have done has come
back negative, I had have 2 months of
really light monthlys which is out of
character with cramping.. Again out of
character. The only thing that is keeping
me thinkign that there is a possiblity is
that I have agot a pooch out of nowhere..
And I stil have rather visable veins
running though mt areola and my nipples
are a dark red colour, have loads of gas
and I am just beign attacked by waves of
tiredness. I coudl go on and on as to why
else I think I may be but like you I would
be 10 weeks now I think, I took some more
side pictures of my belly today..
I know how ya feel askara.I feel like I am
I just cant get any test to tell me I am.I
am a bigger girl so if I was showing then
I wouldnt be able to tell.On my left side
of my abdomen I can feel something.Its
real firm, not hard but firm.Its only on
my left side not on my right.My boobs were
sore for a couple of weeks but not anymore
but I still have the dark blue veins thru
the areola part.Gosh this is the longest
ive ever had to wait for anything in my
life.Thas what it feels like anyway.

The firmness you feel is it on teh inside
of your pelvis? I normaly get firmes
sthere but its atcually impacted feaces ..
Which is nice!
Right now poking my entire lower belly
region is not comfertable. Maybe I should
just quit poking it!! Lol

It feels firm all on the left side of my
abdomen.Not just down in my pelvic area
but along the whole front left side.Its
firm along the whole lower part of my
abdomen but more so on the left side.I
dont know its just weird and ive never
noticed it before.Its not sore to the
touch or anything.It was about 2 weeks ago
but not anymore.Maybe im just imagining
everything, I dont know.Im just so
confused and stressed about this whole
thing.This is wearing thin on my
patience.Oh well guess ill just have to
wait.
