please someone tell me to stop being so silly

[NOredbullLOTSOFGAVISCON]

6 weeks pregnant did 2 tests of the clearblue digital and both said pregnant went to the doctors he didnt examine me, im now scared that when i have my scan nothing will apear on the scan that the tests were wrong as the doctor didnt examine me either i just want and need a professional to say yes you are pregnant, this is my 2nd pregnancy i was the same with ds

You're being silly....

Sorry, couldn't resist that.

Doctors never examined me either and I'm PG with No4.

The tests can't give false +ve, if it says you're PG then you're PG.

I felt exactly the same...all the way upto the first scan i was wiorried that ey would say "there's nothing there...go home"

My dr didn't examine, or do bloods or test, so all i had to go on was the 4 test I did. They were very faint too.

thank you i know im being silly but im such a hypocondriact my head gets carried away with me!!

If a dr examined you at six weeks, chances are he/she'd feel nothing. Also if he/she did examine you and then you subsequently miscarried, would you wonder if the examination was responsible?

Home pg tests are as accurate as the ones the GP has access to.

You are pregnant.

I think that feeling is very common - especially if symptoms you have early on disappear. But unless you start bleeding heavily chances are you and your baby are doing fine.

Hopefully you will get a scan in a few weeks which will reassure you.

Relax - you can't change anything by worrying about it anyway .

i was exactly the same, infact i didnt even have an examination with any of my pregnancies until later on in the pregnancy/labour.the tests are positive therefore, congratulations, you're pregnant.i was exactly the same with my second pregnancy because i had a mc with the first.got to the scan and everything went fine.im sure it's just hormones and nerves.i didnt believe it myself until i was throwing up everywhere and began to put on weight and had a scan picture of the baby just to prove to myself that yes, i was pregnant.everything will be fine.try to relax.

I was exactly the same, it didn't help that my Mother was very vocal and said to me she couldn't believe the Doctor did not perform another test, that is the first thing they do blah blah and didn't really believe me until my first scan!! I ended up riging a Maternity until in tears and they told me it was standard not to examine or re-test...you are not being silly at all - but if the test says positive you are PG don't worry

xx

tghankyou all so much im feeling a bit more confident now.
ive got the morning sickness allthugh im not actually sick just feel that im going to be sick all day its lasting, going to get some travel acupuncture bands for it today it really helped me when i was the same with ds, im allready putting weight on and cant have any meat around me at all!!

still worrying myself about it woundering weather to go and buy another pregnancy test to put my mind at rest

if you want to buy a pg test do it

but a positive test means you are pregnant so it won't tell you something you don't know already

no doctor pays any attention to any woman who says she has a positive pregnancy test .. they just book them in with midwife for around the 12 week mark

it is quite a let down isn't it .. you expect the big wheels of medicine to start turning at the first sign and some professional tests to be put into play .. but it just DOESN'T HAPPEN

Follow your instincts. I am sure it is fine but see doc and tell him how you are feeling. You are the best jugde. Pg test will still say + but talk to a doc xx

a friend of mine w\s like you, convinced that when she went for her scan they would say, dont be silly mrs x, you are not pregnant!, however a pos test is a pos test, you are preg, do you get other symptoms ie sickness etc? if so, it will soon seem real enough!

Could you consider paying for a dating scan? Private clinics do them from 6 weeks onwards (but say 8 weeks plus better as more clear/see heartbeat etc.) It costs £50 but may be worth it if you are really unhappy. Again, I would honestly say that if a pregnancy test is positive you are pregnant - the hormone has to be there to show up but probably won't reassure you. big hug.

Here is a link to fetal mediucine centre in london - they do a scan from 5 weeks and costs £100 fetal viability scan Not sure if near to you.

i was the same and this is my 5th baby!i kept getting pg tests,those 99p ones.i did about 6 that were positive.i had my booking appt at 7 weeks and all i could think was what a waste of time it would be if there turned out not to be a baby in there.
i think most of us on the march ante-natal thread were terrified of our 10-12 week scans,thinking there bwould be nothing in there after all,so what ur feeling is prtty normal i'd say.
congratulations,btw!

I am JUST the same. Am 5 weeks pregnant, have DS 15 months and can't remember being this worried the first time as I was exhausted from 4+0 ie as soon as I had missed a period and done a positive test. so am pranoid that am not feeling tired/sick enough........

I'm professional
You're pregnant

Awww, it's too bad they don't do a standard 8 week scan in the UK. It was very nice to hear them say, Yes, I can see the heartbeat on the screen.

As everyone else says, If you get a positive, you're pregnant. I do love those ClearBlue digitals, btw.

Anyway, big congratulations!!!!

congratulations! x
