    Confused am I preganant
    I am 8 weeks late, I have all the signs of pregnancy, I constantly fell sick, I have slight cramping in my lower abdomen and slight back pain. I constantly feel the need to urinate, and my breasts are so swollen. I have taken two test which have both been negative but I feel like I'm pregnant. I have always had an irregular cycle, usually 5 days early or late I have NEVER been 8 weeks late, it will be 9 weeks this Tuesday. Has anyone else experience this??

    It could be several things. You might be pregnant, but the hcg levels just aren't high enough to register on a hpt. It could be that you are just late. Its not uncommon to be late/completely miss a cycle now and then. I was once two and a half months late, for no reason. However with the breast swelling etc it could also be a hormonal imbalance. I suggest you go to your local hospital and get a qualatative blood test done. These aren't much more expensive then hpts and are more accurate. However, these tests only give a positive or negative reading, so if your hcg levels still aren't high enough to register on this test, you may still get a negative, even if you are pregnant. If you get a negative on the blood test, and you don't get your period within two weeks of the test, I suggest go to your doctor. They can do tests to discover the cause. They can do a quantative blood test, this test measures the exact amount of hcg in your system. If there is enough to suggest pregnancy, the test will be repeated within a few days to see if the numbers are doubling as they should in a normal healthy pregnancy. Perhaps you just need some provera to jump start your cycle. Whatever it is, your doctor is the best source to discover the answers. Good luck, let us know what you find out

    The above site is a good place to start.

    But, please remember... nothing is better than reassurance through a visit to your doctor! This should be FIRST and foremost on your mind.

    I was five months along and the tests were still negative.

    Good luck, and keep us posted.
