I am 27 years old and have two children. My husband and I have been trying for over a year to have a child. I came off the depo in 06/05. My periods have been VERY regular since I came off the shot. I had my LMP on 7/7/06 and haven't had one since. My breasts have swolllen and sometimes ache but they are not hurting bad, I have nausea, headaches, and have gained weight. This is the catch, I have taken 3 HPT and they are all negative. I think that I may be pregnant this time but I am scared to get excited (we have been disappointed in the past). Please let me know what you think...

It is very possible. You already have 2 children, are the symptoms anywhere near the same?

It may be time for a serum blood test.

One morning I threw up brushing my teeth and I did that all the time when I was pregnant with my son. It was only one time this time though. I guess it's hard for me to say because I feel like I was pregnant so long ago (my youngest is 6). My friends and husband said that I have been getting "thicker" I was just curious what everyone thought because my friend told me that she was pregnant and she didn't show up positive on her HPT until she was over three months.

All of that is entirely possible. When you "threw up" was it a greenish-yellowish" color and a metallic taste?

Hpt tests only monitor the level of hCg in your body and that is different for every woman. An hCg test never worked for me, I have 3 children. I had to have a serum blood test.

It is very possible you are pregnant, if I were you, I would treat myself as if I was pregnant and make a doctors appointment.

Yes it was and did taste mettallic and another thing is that I have been spitting A lot. I don't know if excess salavia is a sign but I have it, it is crazy! I think that you're right I think that I am going to have to just go to the dr, I think that I am nervous because if I am not then I would be disappointed. You're right though I need to get this baby care if I am pregnant. Let me know what you think

PS.. thanks for responding. I posted to this site hoping to hear from you because I read some of your other posts and were hoping that you would respond to me

Yes, Stormync, excess saliva can be a sign/symptom of pregnancy for some women.

Keep me posted as to what you find out. Good Luck!!

And thanks for the compliment.
