Am 8 days late
Boobs are growing by min and HURT
Feel sick half the time
Everything smells odd
Nothing tastes normal
I feel pregnant

but

The tests say NO (3 of them so far)

Anyone had the same thing ..... ?
 
Hi Keryn,

It maybe too early to tell...

When I was preggie for the second time I had 2 tests ( one a home kit) & the other was at a hospital both were negative...but I was sure I was pregnant...The doc finally did a THIRD test 3 weeks after my period was due & that was positive...so you never know

Hang in there and test again after a week or so....
 
Same for me. I was a month late, tests were all neg but as I had stopped my birth control pill I thought it might be because of hormons or... Finally did a blood test and was 2 weeks preg. Wait a while and go do a blood test they are 100% correct as the clearblue & co 99% (never know with one little percent...)
 
from what i understand about the urine tests... you need a certain amount of the hormone in your urine before it will detect it....

this means, if it's positive, it's positive.... you're pregnant...

however

if it's negative, you may just not have enough of the hormone in your urine to detect yet... so you can very well get a negative even though you ARE pregnant...or you may not be pregnant...

the hormone appears faster in some people than in others, when i took a home test... i was only 1 day late! it was positive SO fast, i didn't have to wait the full minute that it says...


good luck! i hope you get the answer (pregnant or not) that you are hoping for!
 
Keryn,

With baby no.1, the home pregnancy test showed positive after I was one day late.

With baby no. 2, even with all the signs and symptoms there, the tests didn't turn positive until I was 10 days late.

All the best, Keryn. I'm sure it will show in a few days...
 
Hi Keryn,

We maybe on the same boat. I got a negative result on my home test as well. I don't feel pregnant but at the same time I don't feel my period coming either. I thought my period is just a little late until I read this thread.

Good luck to you and me.

hmmm problem here. if i'm breastfeeding, but have been nauseated for a week, took a test but it came out negative... but still feeling queasy and lightheaded !! how can i find out? as i dont' expect to be ovulating when exclusively breastfeeding.
 
i've heard of women getting pregnant after just delivering a baby, BEFORE they even get a period... because you ovulate...THEN get your period, it is possible...
in my ante-natal classes, they warned us of this and said, "don't think that just because you are BF that you won't get pregnant!"

anyway, good luck!
 
Completly agree with Carang & Rads, in fact when I was BF, my OB insisted that I went back on birth control pill (one compatible with BF, mine was "Micronor") because it can happen...
Go & see you OB to be sure...
Good luck ;-)
 
weird question, but does anyone know if the OB's bill could be claimed for medical insurance under normal chkup, or maternity? because it's a preggo test.
 
:bawling:

Bloody men, even their :sperm: won't ask for directions !

Will just have to keep trying, but I don't know about everyone else, sex with a purpose is a bit .... wierd!

Phantom pregnancy??

Same thing happened to me too. I was positive I was pregnant this cycle (have been ttc-ing for almost 6 months and no, I don't feel pregnant every cycle!) because I felt queasy, bloated, gassy, exhausted, and had skin breakouts and sore bbs to boot. CM was just... well let's just say, abundant... Turns out it was just late period after all.

I'm totally confused now... took several HPT at 11, 13 and 15 dpo and they all say -ve, but surely I couldn't have imagined all the symptoms and convinced my body to react like I was pregnant? After this, I really don't know whether I can trust my body's instincts anymore, for they were surely off the mark... :(
 
Rads,
Was the test you took in the hospital a blood test or urine? I took a blood test about a week ago which would of been 13 days after conception and it was negative. I still feel horrible and my baby is only three months so i remember clearly how it feels to be preggers, I have just stopped breastfeeding due to her bad reflux so am a little worried! Could of that blood test been wrong? was it to early to tell?
