COULD I BE PREGNANT?? PLEASE HELP!!
Wed, 11-05-2003 - 1:54pm
let me give you a bit of history before I begin. I am EXTREMELY irregular - I usually have 38 - 50 days between my cycles - sometimes more - not usually less. My LMP was around 09/16/03. The only day that I had unprotected sex was on October 8th. I started spotting shortly thereafter (which is something I NEVER do)-- I called my doctors office the following week and they wanted me to do a blood test - and it came back negative (quantative blood test) - which I thought was TOO early to test seems it had barely been 1 week. Anyway, I decided to go about with my life and hoping that maybe the blood test was wrong. Now it is November 5th - still no cycle and having some - not consistant - pregnancy syptoms - waves of nausea, hot flashes, headaches, on and off sore bb's. I have taken 4 HPT and all have come up negative. My problem is, I have two other children and with the last one my LMP was the end of August, 1997 and I took a HPT on October 9, 1997 and it was negative, I took another one on October 24, 1997 and it was positive - and had her on June 24, 1998. I'm wondering if maybe - as with my other children - the HCG is taking a longer time to show up because I am so irregular! Anyone else ever have this happen or something similiar?!?! Any advice and/or comments will help - I'm I crazy and just imagining the syptoms or is there a small glimmer of hope?!?! Thank you soooo much to any and everyone who responds!! JAG
