What would the dr say if I went saying I thought I was 20 weeks pg without missing AF?

I really do feel pg. And the last few days, I've ballooned round the tummy though I've lost 9lb in weight in the last fortnight

Near Christmas my AF was late, by nearly 2 weeks and when it finally arrived it was very strange (lot of mucus and brown blood, only lasted 2 days rather than usual 5)

I'm also getting some odd sensations in my lower tummy. I have 2 DC and it really feels like the first movements of a baby. And my boobs are really really sore, and they've gone up a cupsize

I've had regular AF since the weird one at christmas though. Would the dr say come back when you've missed? Give me a check over? Send me for a scan? DH is worried its something more sinister and wants me to go tomorrow. I want to wait tol next AF is due (about 10 days away) and see if it arrives.

to top it off, DH had a vasectomy 3 years ago so if I am, we have to reconsider contraception!

Brilliant news, considering the other options. Hope everything clears up quickly!

Hi I'm a GP and whilst it is very unlikely you are pregnant you should definitely book an appointment with the doctor as soon as possible. The bloating symptoms you describe may be indicative of other things going on and ovarian problems can sometimes present with general abdo sensations, bloating and weight loss. It may be absolutely nothing at all but definitely best to get it checked out.

It's great news that all is well.

I'm sure you are also sad not to be pregnant :( you could always talk DH into a reversal Grin!!

Benne, please read back, I've been the GP this morning and had the all clear apart from possible gastritis

Chipping, yes I am a little sad that there isn't another little one on the way, but being realistic it would alter my life in a big way as I'm going to college soon now DD is going to school. So having another baby now would alter it all by a few years

Good news imnotaslimjim!! Hope everything goes well for you, and definitely still get your ovaries checked!

Benne81, I'm going to save your name! You'd wished you've never confessed to that!!! :)

Fab news! Glad it's so easily solved.

My first thought (sorry) was intestinal parasites. Have you been on a foreign holiday in the last six months? Or an ovarian cyst.

Ah I see you are all okay. Well that's good then, well done! :)
