    I'm not sure if I should go get a blood test or not.
    Ok so I'm having so much trouble because I've had three miscarriages before all within the first few weeks. I didn't get many symptoms and I took hpts up until I miscarried and they all came back negative. Well now it's been about 8 weeks since intercourse so I'm guessing 6 weeks since conception and I thought I might be so I took some hpts but they all came back negative but because that happened before then I miscarried I'm worried I might be. So my main question is the symptoms I'm having, are they main ones one would have this far along and are they enough to warrant me going to the doctor and paying the money I don't really have to get a pregnancy test. The symptoms that just started are constant thirst I mean I drank half a gallon of water in one sitting and now drink like 10 bottles of water a day and still feel thirsty. I'm urinating all the time and I know that can be from all the water I'm drinking but the constant urination started about a day before the constant thirst. I'm having major mood swings as in crying one minute and laughing the next. I'm having a hard time breathing like I have to take deep breaths all day and I have an inhaler but it hasn't been helping. My breast are sore I'm sick to my stomach but not all the time and for the first time ever I'm getting indigestion from my famiies soup. I'm just needing to know if I have enough concern to go to the doctor. Thank you for any and all help.

    Hi heather,

    With the history of miscarriages, it would be wise to see the doctor to be tested for pregnancy. Were any tests done after the last miscarriage to see if a cause might be determined?

    Some of what you are experiencing might be due to pregnancy, but others, such as the increased thirst and hard time breathing are not usually associated with early pregnancy.

    Might as well go in so that you don't have to wonder and can have some peace of mind.

    Thank you for answering. After the third miscarriage I went to the doctor and they told me they didn't know what was wrong with me. I've had problems with my perios and ovaries I've had a cyst ruptured. I've been to many doctors but they all came back with they didn't know and the tests that would tell me would cost a lot so I don't know. I just didn't want to be surprised again. I think I will save up and go to the doctor to see if I am or not. Thank you for your advice.

    When you go in, whether you are pregnant this time or not, you might want to ask your doctor about a simple test for progesterone level. A low level is often one of the first things checked for recurrent miscarriages.

    Good luck!
