Positive Symptoms And Negative Tests
Posted: 11-08-05 15:15pm

I know this is a common question and the only real answer is to keep testing. Fyi- i'm on the pill but I accidentally thought I missed a pill and took 2 too early...Oops. So I had on day without the pill because I had already taked it.




I'm confused because I started having preggo symptoms a few days before my period was due (headache, nausia, fatigue)..Which could have been anything. I didn't have cramps or my normal pms symptoms though.



I bled very light (i'm a heavy bleeder), and it came a couple days early. I had 1 drop on day one, a few more on day 2, a little more on day 3, one light flow day (could have been my period) then it faded away. I also had slim to none cramping.



I took a blood test a few days after my period was due because it didn't seem like my normal period (negative), and my home test were negative too.



But then- my nipples started to get sore, that lasted about a week and then when that disappeared my breasts were larger than normal! And now i'm starting to pee every hour or less...I also have larger nipples and my montgomery tubercles are more prominent. I continue to have mild headaches and nausia. It's now 2 weeks after my "so-called period" and I tested with accu-clear htp (negative) and ept digital (negative- but there were 2 lines...One very faint when I ejected the stick). I'm confused because I don't want to be the annoying patient who wont believe the negative tests and needs more blood tests, but my body never acts this way!
In addition to all my symptoms...My body just feels different. I've heard to just keep testing every few days until my period comes again- but shouldn't my tests be positive by now???
This isn't all in my head either...I don't even want to be pregnant...I'm actually peeing every hour or less and my breast are bigger. Are my hormones just out of control or playing a mean trick on me?



Whew...A long post...

I've been more hungry than normal throughout the day...I'm not having as many cravings as I am having adversions.
And i'm constipated and bloated...Which isn't common for me.

By the way...I'm still a week and a half away from my next period...So none of this is pms.

It can take up to 3 weeks past missed period to get pos urine test. Sometimes urine test never come out. Some pple have implantation bleeding and some pple have periods while preg. So anything is possible.

Hope you find out soon!!

One Faint Line
Posted: 11-08-05 16:05pm

Yes- I had a faint line but it was one of those digital tests. The results were not pregnant, but when I took out the test there was a very faint line. I've heard not to analyze that line...I'm not sure why. It seems if there is hcg there that would pick it up...

Is it possible to have all these symptoms right on schedule for being pregnant and still not be? That's a funny question...Of course it's possible. But it doesn't seem likely to me.

Replying to Myself...

Does anyone have an opinion about this? Has anyone been in the same boat as me? I'm going out of my mind and so is my husband...
How long until you believe the negative results?

Hi sue
i am in the same boat you are. I have taken hpt all neg. I have taken a blood test also neg. I am also experiencing the so called pregnancy symptoms. And trust me I know what you mean by not wanting to be one of those patients that just refuse to believe the tests. But I understand where you are coming from, just plain and simple wanting to know what the heck is going on with your body. I also have had a so called period since I first started questioning what was going on it was really light(so not like me) and only lasted 2-3 days. Then nothing for 2days and now I am having a pinkish discharge.

Well anyway,
i just wanted to let you know that you are not alone and if you need someone to talk to pm me.

Best of luck,
casey

I am in the same boat...I have:
nausea, fatigue, hot/cold flashes, sore breasts, missed period, headaches, some cramping, frequent urination, increased sense of smell, excessive discharge (not smelly, itchy, or burning in any way and totally clear), and just an overall weird feeling. Blood test came back negative? I don't know what to think . Any thoughts???

What Do You Guys Think.....help Me Please!
Posted: 11-11-05 13:55pm

My period ended on the 1st of this month and I had unprotected sex on the 4th. On the 6th I had a little bleeding which looked like spots but after I wiped there was no more there. I had the same thing on the 7th. But on the 10th I had what appeared to be the same thing but the drops where more plentiful. What are my chances of being pregnant. I am trying to conceive however, I am not trying to worry too much because I know that your mind and body plays tricks on you when you want something real badly.

I'm Still So Confused
Posted: 11-11-05 15:15pm

For a few days now i've thought I wasn't pregnant afterall. After my negative blood test I had earlier this month (which I thought was wrong) my doctor put me on a new birth control "yasmin".
I didn't realize this was a mild diuretic which can cause frequent urination.
I still have all the preggo symptoms (no vomiting thought...Whew) and i'm thinking some of these might be due to yasmin, however I thought I was pregnant before I started yasmin- but i've heard that frequent urination can also be caused by excessive diuretics and that started a few days after starting the pill. I'm peeing every hour or less now..It's getting worse. And my stomach feels bloated and harder even though i'm not feeling bloated at the moment.
I heard 2 things that make me confused about my symptoms: diuretics can cause false negative blood tests or false positives...I've heard of both and I don't know which is true- false negatives makes more sense.
And diuretics make you urinate more....So I just don't know what to believe now. I guess i'll just wait for my next period to crash my party.
It makes me nervous because i've thought I wasn't pregnant on and off and I haven't stopped taking bc pills- and I don't want to get pregnant by not being on the pills if i'm not preggo already!
