Can an ultrasound miss a pregnancy? (Page 10)

Hello everyone I'm 19 yrs old and I haven't received a period since December 26 2011 I've been to the doctor multiple times and they can't find any baby I've had two urine test both negative and two blood test one negative and one positive. Here I am now in April and my body is slowly changing I've lost over 15 pounds I use to always have these weird cravings never cramps or bleeding. But for the last month I've been feeling little movements in my belly. Over in my ribs I feel things and in my side. I went to the doctor for an ultrasound and she didn't find anything. I still haven't had a period and I'm very confused on what's going on. Can someone please help me on what's going on I'm so confused

hey guys im in the same boat with yall. In august of last year i quit my birth control and in November my boyfriend and I started trying for a baby and towards the end of november I felt very different like a whole new change and all of my family was calling me asking me if i was pregnant because they felt like i was and i told them i didnt know... in the beginning of december i took a pregnancy test because i had realized i hadnt had a period in november and the test came up negative so i was like ok and at that time i told my boyfriend that we needed to quit tryin because we really dont need one right now because in the summer we are supposed to move to tennessee and so we quit tryin and then towards the middle of december i realized i couldnt sleep on my belly without feeling discomfort and so i went to planned parenthood and their pregnancy test came up negative and so they ruled out pregnancy. on christmas i experienced some bleeding and bad cramping so i went to the hospital and they did a blood test and it came back negative but couldnt understand what was going on so in january i had an ultrasound on my pelvic bone and they wouldnt let me see the screeen and it wasnt a long time that i was in there for and the next day i went to my doctor and they told me they only saw a cyst on my right ovarie but that its really small and isnt the reason why im having pregnancy symptoms so a few days later i took another pregnancy test and it came up negative... so i started forgetting about it all except during the mornings because i had been having morning sickness since the beginning of december in february i woke up feeling like the top of my stomach was contracting and it hurt after that was over with i took another test and it was negative so again i was like ok maybe im not. two weeks later i experienced the same thing except this time i had lower back pain with it but i just laid in bed and didnt think nothin of it. in the beginning of march i felt somethin like a lil ball roll from one side of my belly to the other and i started cryin because i didnt know if it was just in my head or what so i went and got a test and it came up positive. i havent been to the doctors since february because they keep tellin me its all in my head and theres nothing wrong with me.. i know feel movements like lil twitches on the inside of my belly and only want sweets and meats i was never a big sweet eater and i now love fruits and cant stand veggies which before now i hated fruits and loved veggies.... i have now gaines 35 lbs and am losing everywhere but my belly which is where the weight gain is and also my boobs are a whole size bigger... my belly is round now and i had to go get a whole new ward robe because my belly has been pootchin out from the bottom of all my shirts and i cant wear tight pants on my belly because it hurts. i am taking prenatal vitamins and i rarely talk about it. its now just a waiting game for me because everyone keeps tellin me im not but i know what i feel every day and know of all the mornings i had morning sickness for three months straight. im at the stage of where at night i cant sleep because thats when the movements are strongest and sometimes i feel weak and washed out. i figure my due date is around august 3rd and next month i am gonna go to the doctors when my medical kicks in and tell them whats up and all the tests i want them to do because its rediculous how you can tell your doctor how you feel and they look at you like your crazy... i will keep everyone posted

If your test came up positive you should see your doctor. Take the test in with you. You could have gotten pregnant only a few months ago and the other symptoms were unrelated (or related to the cyst -- that could have definitely been causing the discomfort). They'll do an ultrasound and measure the sac/fetus to see how far along you are.

I am going through the same thing i am really starting to feal crazy i have even have my doc say i look prego. had an ultrasound today and nothing, always hungry, needing to pee gained 10 pds in the last 2 months when lay on back i feel something and when i go to touch it with my hand i can feel it move away. i have three kids i know what it feels like to be prego

I've been having the same issues, feeling tired, nausea, bigger bbs, darker nipples, bloating, different types of cramps, pregnancy brain, heartburn, indigestion, big veins on breasts and stomach, etc. But I have been bleeding every month (now 25 day cycles)not like normal. I had crazy dreams about ex's and my hubby cheating, nightmares, dreams about being pregnant. I asked for a sign and received three of babies within 15 minutes. I asked for a dream showing what's going on in my body, and I dreamed I was being scanned in hospital. There were masses or growths and hiding inside or behind was a tiny fetus. I have had 4 negative hpt. Went to the doctor and he did a sonogram, he said there's an enlarged uterus and thickened lining. I have sugar in my urine and other weird stuff. I'm still waiting for the papsmeer results. I wasn't thinking of pregnancy, until I got these symptoms.

I also had protein in my urine and have now found out that you can get that when pregnant. I also remember having sugar in my urine from a previous pregnancy. They tested my blood sugar level, which was normal both times. I take photo's of my belly every week and it grows like a pregnant belly does. I don't know what to think anymore...

Hi All,

Add me as well, I am Anitha, just like JodiexXx, i have missed my periods, 3 months now no periods, and i have PCO, my stomach has grown and my Dr. says nothing is found, i got negative report with urine & ultrasound and she is now giving me tablets to get my periods regularized.

Is there any other test i can do to check if my pregnant.

Interesting way to self-diagnose; Stand up straight with pelvis tucked in and shoulders back. Let gravity take over and see if it pulls you forward or if you stay upright. If your really pregnant, you will 'fall' forward because your center of gravity has changed and the weight of the uterus and baby pulls you forward. Fat doesn't do this, I've tested on my hubby with a big belly. It can also be growths in the stomach, so have it checked out.

Omg! I'm so relieved to see this page...
quick version: no period since christmas, i have long cycles and was due feb 15 but hubs and I started trying feb 7... feb 12 I nearly fell over because I got so faint and dizzy, the next day I had implantation bleeding. From there I had every symptom in the proper progression, except vomiting. I had nausea but no vomiting. HPTs and blood tests all negative. Now it is the end of june and I am/would be 22 weeks pregnant today. I look very pregnant. Its big and round and very hard. Nips are getting darker, i have big blue veins all over my breasts, stretch marks, heartburn, headaches, still dizzy, the cravings have tapered a bit... still sleepy as well. and MOVEMENT!! I FINALLY got a doctor to give me an ultrasound but they ended up giving me a transvaginal scan instead, which I wasnt happy with... but anyway they said they didnt see a baby. I saw the screen with my uterus on it and it looked empty. Then the doctor came in, I hate him and Im not sure why he was there anyway... but he went on about how I need to diet and take hormone pills. He was very insensitive and got upset for me not listening to him. He couldnt give me a reason for why my body thinks theres a baby, but it isnt a false pregnancy, he said. He gave my stomach a quick feel and said he didnt feel anything! So now of course my whole family and best friends think I'm not pregnant. My brain is more convinced that there isnt a baby but my gut still says to wait. The little flips and butterflies in my belly sure dont feel like gas! I've been absolutely beside myself all day. I know of one woman that my friend knows, she had negative tests and a negative u/s and she ended up giving birth in a toilet. In my head i know I should consider taking the hormone pills but my gut just says no!! My family thinks I'm crazy. Thank god I have a supportive husband who knows better.

I'd like to hear more from the previous posters... were any of you indeed pregnant? Even with fluttering in my abdomen, should I take the pills or not?

How is everyone? Anything new to report? I didn't feel much last week and am trying to move on as I'm not pregnant, but then the last couple days I've been feeling movement...I think, but I question if it's in my head or not....I'll keep you all posted.

Hi im in a very similar situation, i had unprotected sex on march 20th and started bleeding on march 27th didnt think anything of it, until i started feeling sick in the mornings and on occasion actually being sick, i took 4 hpt and they came back negative so i waited a week and did 3 more that came back positive, i got an appointment to see the dr and he said he wanted to do a blood test to make sure because of the 4 negative ones, blood test came back negative and i automatically thought whats going on with my body? another couple of weeks passed and i was begining to get headaches, more tired than usual, sensitivity to smells and sore boobs, i took it upon myself to do another hpt and sure enough it was positive, i went back to the dr and was asked if i would do another blood test which also came back negative just like the first one, so i requested a scan as i know in myself when im pregnant as ive already had 2 healthy babies and i felt that a scan would put my mind at ease, the dr said she would book it in for me and id get a letter in the post, 3 weeks went by and no letter so i went back to the dr once again and she told me they would not give me a scan as there was no pregnancy detected in my blood tests i left her office feeling hurt and upset and like it was all in my head and id imagined the positive tests so i asked a very close friend to wait outside the bathroom while i urinated i passed her the test and she announced with pleasure "its positive" and immediately i felt relieved that it wasnt in my head, my usual dr has been away on holiday and in these weeks my boobs have grown and become more sore and im constantly peeing aswell as the symptoms i had already i am going to see him on friday 13th im hoping he will have a different attitude to the dr's i have already seen and i will finally get my ultrasound scan, i look pregnant and im getting alot of people asking if i am and im not able to tell them yes or no and it makes me feel like im just crazy, if i am correct i would be around 14-15 weeks pregnant, id be very gratefull for any replies that could help me not to feel like im going mad and may help me understand what is happening and why?

Hi everyone is this support group still on?

I still come back to check. I have no idea what is happening with me with not much to update. I'm going to have to do something soon. One interesting thing is I don't know if I ovulated this month because my BBT never rose to establish a cover-line. I have been tracking my fertility on fertilityfriend.com since April. I will update when I know more and support in anyway I can. I'm trying to think that I'm not pregnant because I haven't grown much, but I still "feel" like I am. But I just took a HPT this morning and NEGATIVE. I don't know...I'm trusting the Lord with all my heart because I definitely don't understand this.

This whole thing goes back to spiritual if these babies are found other than how science say they should be found then the baby dont exsist under medical law. Medical science does not believe in creation when you believe in creation theres no room for medical science!! yall hang in there GOD HAS HIS TIME HE SAID EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL CONFESS HE IS LORD!! So hes has to start somewhere breaking this crap open. Machines and tecnology have been trying to take over for centuries trying to prove GOD THE CREATOR IS NOT REAL!!!

Hey SP-03! Thank you for your words of encouragement! I'm struggling a bit today. A patient asked my co-worker if I was pregnant. I don't know what I would say if someone asked me directly. I look pregnant, but haven't grown much in the last month or so, but not 7 months...however Pilates is getting more difficult because I feel something inside of me that is in the way...also getting more difficult to shave my legs. But I have some light bleeding today that is what the doctor called my "new period". I get it for like a day and a half and don't even need a pad. So I'm still ovulating and I don't feel kicks on he outside or very many at all. I don't know. But I trust the Lord and whatever he has for me I know that is best. I just am praying i hear his voice and honor him in all my ways. How are you doing?

Anyone have anything to update? I am slowly growing, but not much...Praying for the Lord to speak to me and guide me in the right path of what to do next....

Hello everyone
I just want to ask you ladies something: I am over 2 months late, several negative HPTs, and an ultrasound about a week ago that showed I have PCOS (again).
I already had a baby, hes 16 months old, so I do have an idea of what it is like to be pregnant....my question is, could I still be pregnant? The doctor, before he even started the u/s, gave me the "youre crazy" look when I told hiim the u/s was to check whether I was pregnant or not, but that I had already had many negative HPTs...so, I think the PCOS makes sense, but I still have this little voice that tells me it just might be possible....any ideas?....thanks!
