anyone had neg hpt after 2 missed periods but was pregnant?????

hi, any advice would be great. ive missed 2 periods now, got some pregnancy symptoms (but is it all in my head- even the cheese and onion sandwich with SUGAR!)but taken hpts 4 days late, 12 days late and 4 weeks late but still neg.

my friend scared me and said could it be ectopic but ive googled it and it doesnt sound like it, no pain anywhere. just feel pregnant????

want to know if anyone has had anything similar and what was the outcome?

if i was pregnant id be nearly 9weeks so surely id have enough pregnancy hormone to turn a test positive. am really baffled, and worried case its sumin else!

thanks for taking time to read x

Did you try another test?

duchesse · 07/04/2009 14:46

I have a friend with four children who never had a positive pregnancy test. It can happen.

i did take a test yes, bout a week after i stopped the pill and it was neg. dont know what is going on!

i went to docs and i have to go back next wed (ages away cos of bank hols) for a blood test. hes guna do a blood preg test and also test for other things too. he did tell me what but it just went over my head lol.

ive started to feel really tender in my pelvis area and just above it, especially just above it. my lower tummy i think its called. only hurts when i lie on it or its pressed gently. started a couple days ago. does this sound like its linked? its also started to hurt during intercourse particularly in the right side of my pelvis. i stupidly forgot to tell dr this so def telling him on wed.

duchess i cant believe your friend, wonder why it doesnt show up, did her doc tell her why? that is strange!

is having a tender tummy linked do u think?

went to drs today but wasnt usual dr just someone taking blood so didnt tell him bout tender tummy, pain etc.

having a full hormone check which can take up to 10days, i hate the waiting!!

yes I think that is relevant and a doctor should be made aware.

rainbowdays · 16/04/2009 16:07

no1Ch-m - I think that you ought to be pushing for a scan to be done too. The full blood work-up might not show anything. My mum and sister had negative tests on pregnancies, it does happen. If you have a tender tummy, it could be pregnancy related, or not! But it should be investigated. Do go back to the doc and tell him about the tender tummy and see if he will send you for a scan.

i know i should be pushing, unfortunately im not a forceful person, but i will try to be! (i promise!)

i know there is definately something not right going on. my minds moving from baby to more serious, its horrible not knowing

man who took blood at drs said it probably was about me when the hosp talked about a very faint pg test, said NHS are bad at telling you everything and as i was in a&e section they were probably trying to get rid of me, nice!!

am finding out results to thyroid test etc tomorrow then hormone check in a weeks time. il keep u all updated

more things are starting to happen to me, aghhh! ive got really sensitive nipples, noticed last nite wen took bra off and pyjama top rubbing against made them really hurt! i also had a dizzy spell today, quite a big one, had to sit down with my head between my legs until it went away. i did have a dizzy spell about a month ago too, and i lost my balance for no reason at all, weird.

with the sensitive nipple thing can it start at 12weeks or does it come before? and could dizzy spells be linked too? i didnt tell doc bout last dizzy spell as having this one today only reminded me.

I got sensitive nipples at 5 weeks and had a dizzy spell or two before I even tested. Poor you, must be awful to be in limbo.

hi i went to a&e last nite again as i had another dizzy spell and thought it was best to see someone. they done the same blood tests ive had twice before and, yet again, everythings fine. told them i could have told them that! they were going to send me home so i put my foot down (HARD!) and demanded a scan or an internal. she said they cant do scans in evenings or weekends so she done an internal. after it she said im glad i done that as your uterus is hard. she said theres a number of reasons that cause this. pregnancy is one but she said im def not as bloods came back neg again. it also could be fibroids so i googled it and hysterectomy kept coming up so now im worried! i know i should wait for scan (should be within nxt couple weeks) but im fearing the worse

rainbowdays · 18/04/2009 17:54

No1childminder - poor you, you are no further forward in finding out. Don't worry about the fibroids thing, you must have googled the wrong sort of websites, as fibroids do by no means automatically mean hysterectomy. Also I find this would be more unlikely than pregnancy as it usually is linked with heavier more frequent periods rather than absent ones!!! I hope that the scan appointment comes soon for you.

I don't want to keep false hopes alive, but it is still possible that you are pregnant despite the negative tests. Did they not do a visual look at the cervix? This would be the way they would diagnose pregnancy in the old days, and it was how my mum was diagnosed when her pregnancy tests were all negative while pregnant!

Wallace · 18/04/2009 18:22

What a rollercoaster, poor you

Hope you get answers soon.

no1childminder · 18/04/2009 19:18

rainbowdays i read about fibroids giving you heavier periods too, wonder why doc mentioned them then if she knew i hadnt come on for 3 months?

i assume she looked at my cervix as been as she was up there anyway lol.

well the scan will reveal all so will just have to wait for that. cant see what else i can do

OP posts:
doggus · 19/04/2009 14:36

Let us know what happens, what a nightmare for you. I have fibroids and it is honestly OK, I have conceived three times with them.

i had my AF this morning, well i think it is. its red with a brown tinge and is watery. it def isnt a normal one! (TMI coming up!) it also had white small lumps in it??? still got brownish, thin blood now, any ideas?

OP posts:
rubles · 20/04/2009 17:40

That sounds very weird, if you were my sister I'd be telling you to go back to the doctor.
How are the other symptoms? Do you still have the pelvic pain and the nausea?

Original poster
no1childminder · 20/04/2009 18:34

yeah think i will book another drs app. tell him about it. maybe it will speed up scan too. dont think i could handle waiting 2-3 weeks for one!

i got 'period pains' and dark brown discharge now. no red in it at all, isnt this old blood?

Get yourself to that GP, girl. AF does not sound normal at all!

no1childminder · 21/04/2009 20:06

i only had white lumps in it first thing in morn and ever since ive just had quite heavy brown blood. am going to call dr tomorrow to see if he can bring scan forward.

Go to a hospital,if the discharge is prune colour or you get shoulder-tip pain. These are signs of an ectopic pregnancy.

no1childminder · 22/04/2009 18:32
