Doctor ?, Pregnant 5 Mos But Neg Blood Test?
Posted: 01-18-06 00:33am

Ok. So here is my situation. I am 25 and I believe that I am pregnant. But, I just got my blood test results from a week and half ago from county(i have no insurance as of yet) but it came back negative.
I do not understand this and am confused and feel lost. If I counted it out right I am 5 mos(20 weeks today). The reason I feel that I am pregnant is my ever growing belly and breasts. And most important the movement I am feeling in my belly. It is continuingly getting stronger and days the days go by. I feel what feels like kicks every now and then, and tickles from the inside. When I rub my tummy, I feel what feel like a baby moving inside me. Sometimes it is quite active. When I lay on my back on the couch and rest my hands on my belly I feel the movements, the rolling, the what feels like little feet kicking my hands back if I poke my tummy or rub, sometimes even what feels like a fingertip running its little hand around to feel. If I feel gently around my belly I can feel a form to what feels like a baby.
Has this happned to anyone before? Negative blood tests at almost 5 mos when the blood test was taken? They did schedule me for an ultrasound next tues, but my family seems to think im crazy. They can obviously see that my body has changed. This is so hard and I feel alone. They do not believe me because I was raped. They dont even believe me that I was raped. The people at the county clinic arent even taking me searious. And I feel alone in this with my family. I do have freinds that are supportive, but its my family that hurts the most with no support. Please advise me. I know in my heart that I am. The ones in my family keep telling me its and infection, but I just had blood work done and I dont have an infection. How many times has this happned before with negative blood tests this far along? A freind said maybe because I am overweight? Im sorry this so long of a post, but if the doctor or anyone has any advise for me please do. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

A lot of times, if you have an abdominal pregnancy, hcg will not show up on a hpt or even a blood test. It's good that they have you set up for an u/s. It's the same way with ectopic pregnancies. But if you are actually 5 months pregnant, i'm sure a tube would've burst by now.

I'm not saying you aren't pregnant, but there are a lot of other things it could be causing you to look like you're pregnant or even feel moving inside of you, like tumors.

Have you missed any of your periods?

An abdominal pregnancy does not have to be in the tube. It is more common to be in the tube though.

It sure does sound just like my pregnancy--and I am pregnant in the abdomen. Not in the tube. I am 29.4 weeks pregnant.

My last period was in end of aug early sept. I had spotting in sept and some mild bleeding but that was it.

Thank you for replying. Over this past month ive looked into so many different things that it could be. But looking back over the past months if I am like I think, then it would make sense. I have had 2 m/cs in the past, never made it past 3 mos. So, despite my situation there is a part of me hopeful, but not. If that makes sense? I just find it hard to believe that the movements I am feeling are something other than a baby. Though im not saying it isnt possible. Part of me just want to the er and tell them my belly is enlarged and feel movement and have been sick to see if they would give me and u/s to go ahead and clear my mind. But the more rational part of me says that I have waited this long, I can wait one more week.
Its just really hard not knowing for sure except what I feel you know? And im so exsausted all the time these past few weeks. This is alot to carry around on my emotional back. :(

H.c.g Does Not Come Out For Me Either
Posted: 01-18-06 05:13am

I still have yet to have my pregnancy confirmed--i do not pass the .H.C.G either.

But I know I am--and have for 6 1/2 months. I know I am. I had been preg 9 times in my younger years--so I know pregnancy. I am now 44 years old--and .God promised me 18 years ago I would have miracle baby.

So I knew, and still know, whether .Dr's do or not. I do have new u/s ordered for the 19th and follow up appt for monday the 23rd. I will be lettin everyone know whats up by then. Unless im in the hospital, which I very well could be.
