    Am I pregnant?
    Hi- Could someone please help me find answers?

    I received my last period on October 20th. It ended on the 25th of October. As of today I am 11 days late... for getting my period.

    I have a lot of symptoms which include: morning sickness, bloating, tiredness, on and off cramping, headaches, dizziness, frequent urination and a tender chest.

    In the past three weeks I have taken three in home pregnancy tests- which all came back negative... the third one was very faint- somewhat difficult to read.

    I went to the doctors office today... and this pregnancy test came back negative.

    My cycle is regular- I just don't know where to go from here... if anyone could help me out that would be great.

    Thanks.

    Have you been doing anything different? Exercising more? Less? Eating differently? Are you stressed? There are so many things that can effect your period.

    Hi I'm going through something similar. I had my period in October and have not gotten my period again. I took 3 hpt's which were all negative. Tomorrow I have a dentist appointment for a cavity and I am scared to go, because of the shot. I don't know what else to do. I don't have many symptoms, I did have very tender breasts about 2 weeks ago and it went away, now I'm getting cramps but very mild I don't know if I'm getting my period or what? Also if you are too early taking the tests the hpt won't show an early pregnancy most will show pregnancey until 4-6 weeks of pregnancy. Good luck and let me know if you found anything

    I have not been doing anything different. Nor am I stressed. I am just worried- maybe something completely different could be going on within my body... A person just never really knows.

    I really don't understand. I have encounted numerous pregnancy symptoms including unbareable stomach cramps for over three weeks- To assist the pain... I've been drinking more water. I thought these crampings were leading up to my period... Although, I did not get it yet.

    Next Monday I may get a blood test just to be sure...

    Is it still possible to be pregnant after four tests came back negative? Sometimes you hear these stories where a woman never knows she is pregnant until the sixth month or something. It's just irritating not knowing what's going on with my body... Sometimes doctors are completely wrong... she said I could be stressed- Which is the complete opposite... I feel like just another patient in that office... it's like no one is willing to help a person out sometimes...

    I hate to continue to drink and smoke knowing that there is a slight possibility of pregnancy. A chance from zero to slim but you never know right?

    I appreciate your reply!

    Best Regards,

    McKenzie

    I would defiently tell your dentist that there is a possibility that you may be pregnant.
    Do you think I am testing too early?

    Thanks for the reply.

    I still have all of the symptoms under the sun- Although... I have been getting white discharge today.

    Thank you to those who have replied! I am still searching for answers!

    I'm almost in the same boat as you are... I suggest that because the doctors test came back negative that you want him to do a physical because they may be able to find something that could be causing this problem that you are experiencing...

    All the best to you

    McKenzie when was the last day you had unprotected sex. I have read that if you are pregnant the best time to test is 4-6 weeks after the last day you had unprotected sex in order to get your positive. I just took another test this morning and it was negative. I work at a doctors office of course I don't ask the doctor personal questions but I did ask him when we ovulate, he said we ovulate 14 days after the first day of your period, maybe this will help you start counting. If I don't get my period in two weeks and another test is negative I will be going to the doctor because it just feels that is not right there is something going on. BEST WISHES KEEP ME POSTED!

    Here's the big question that I had to use...
    Do you think you're pregnant?
    With my youngest son, I had 2 pregnancy tests done at the doctor's office, and they came back negative, but I KNEW I was pregnant. Just that gut feeling. So I went in every week and treated myself as if I were pregnant. (which was a good thing, because my doctor wanted to go ahead after the first test and give me my depo shot) So, sometimes it's all your intuition

    I really feel as if I am pregnant. I just have a gut feeling, like you did. Ohh yaah- and this doctor wanted to put me on the depo shot. Why do doctors always want to put people on birth control without even asking them?

    See if your doctor will do a blood test, or wait until next month and see if your period still doesn't show. You may be just skipping this cycle or it may still show up late. Pregnancy is a possibility even with a few negative results on urine tests since you are having other possible symptoms. Treat yourself as though you might be pregnant until you know for sure.

    An update regarding my first post!
    I was officially 20 days late with my period... and today I started bleeding lightly. Does this indicate my period, or spotting? When I normally get my period- it's not this late and it is normally a lot heavier.
