If I was pregnant I would be about 6 months by now. Belly is swollen to about what I normally look like 6 months pregnant. All tests (about 5 altogether since I thought I might be) have come back negative.
I have had two sporadic periods so thought I’m not and it might just be the fact my timing is now becoming irregular (I’m 40)? But then I thought what If I actually am and it’s some possible placenta issue?
Have requested a scan but doctors are not interested unless I show up with a positive pregnancy test.
I’ve thought about the idea that it’s all in my head, but I then thought that would be for someone who perhaps had been TTC? (I hadn’t been)
I’ve got two children so have experience of pregnancy, and it’s the “kicks” and movements when I least expect it that makes me think I am.
Could be some digestive issue, of course
Breasts are tender. Just feel like an idiot pestering the doctor again for a scan to rule it out (although I was a bit annoyed that they didn’t offer to make an appointment to see me on account of the fact that I might have IBS or chron’s or something similar, or to rule out allergies, although I understand that they are so busy at the moment. )
Guess I’ll find out in 3-4 months one way or another. I can’t really afford a private scan.
Maybe I could press another surgery for a scan?
