Okay, so I was just reading about that girl who missed 4 periods and neg hpt but ended up being pregnant...I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of someone not missing periods and neg hpt (only one, haven't done one since the first one I did) and still being pregnant?

I ask this because i've been putting on a little weight, not lots, around my lower abdomen, just inbetween my hips and about even with the top ov my hip bone. Its gotten really hard there too...I just finished my . But it only lasted 3 days. I also felt so bloated and uncomfortably and i'm one of those women who always has reallly easy .'s
i've been ttc and hope i'm preg, but I don't know if this has really been my period or just random bleeding. I did a hpt last month when I was 1 week late and it came back neg. A week later (2wks late) I bled. This month I was 2 days late and had a short . And I didn't test or nething...

I dunno, its probably all in my head

oo...And just as a side question, out of curiousity..When do babys start kicking?

With my last child my cycle continued for three months. I didn't even think I was preggers because it wasn't late or anything. I was also on the depo shot. On the 4th month I didn't have my period and tested. When I finally went to the Dr. They did a sono and I was already like 13 weeks along. Had no idea.

I just didnt' take any hpt at home with in the first three months. It wasn't until I was late on the 4th month.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that. Gives me some hope...But I don't want to get my hopes too high, because i'm afradi I just want a baby so bad that I just think i'm pregnant andthe bleeding isn't really my period...I'll wait another month (*sigh*) and then i'll see what comes of it...Did you notice anything different when u were preg w/ 'period' or did you just think everything was normal?

It was my first pregnancy....And I wouldn't have known what to look for...But I didn't even think that I was preggers...I had no symptoms that I could remeber. It wasn't until the 4th month when I was late that I thought I was....

I am preggers now and I knew within 3 weeks that I was preggers and I started having symptoms right away, puking, dizziness, weight gain. I look like I am like five months along already...I am only 10 weeks.

Best of luck to you....And if there is a skoot in there good luck...Keep me posted.

About the babies kicking....Its at about 16 to about 23 weeks that you can start to feel them move around in there. It's sooner if it's your 2nd or 3rd pregnancy. Don't know why that is.

Thanks for y'alls replys. I've been getting weird pains like...Okay how do I discribe it..Okay, you know if you just have a little bit of chub on your tummy how you get that little pocket in the middle, well right on the edge of that i've been getting random sharp pains...Not bad bad pains, but they're there. I don't know, it's probably all in my head..But I can' believe i'm making this stuff up by myself...Either way, i'll just have to try and relax and see what happens...Wish me luck ***

Was ur bleeding equal to that of a period (like just as heavy...) because I just always hear of 'spotting' as being really light...But I guess it would have to be 'normal' if you didn't even realize u were pregnant...

Good luck to you ~unspoken~

I spotted through my daughters pregnancy although I was worried sick the drs held no concern unless I started to bleed heavily, as for this pregnancy I started to bleed because of my complication (placenta previa) although the bleeding has stopped I do spot sometimes. Talk to your dr mine said as long as my bleeding didnt get heavy not to worry(kinda hard when ur prego) but when you have a healthy child u dont care anymore.

I wish you the best of luck dont be afraid to push for a second opinion cause every dr has different views!!
