pg or not??? so confused

I am so confused and frankly rather depressed too... We've been TTC our 2nd child for 6 months now and no luck. I'm somewhat irregular (cycles 27-36 days) but I've NEVER skipped a month. Now it's been 45 days in this cycle (so 1-2 weeks late)... but I've taken 4 tests over the last 2 weeks and all have been negative. :*( I've tried EPT and First Response, are there any more sensitive? I called my Dr. but can't get in until the 23rd. It's killing me!

I FEEL pregnant. Abdominal "fullness", white/clear CM, intermittent mild nausea, more frequent urination; breasts are perhaps a little fuller/darker than normal but no tenderness yet. And of course, no period.

Last time was MUCH simpler, we got pregnant in 3 months, a definite positive result the first time I tested, just a few days after I was late. It's not helping that all my friends keep popping up pregnant by ACCIDENT. :(

Is there any chance I could be pregnant??? Please help!

My first thought from reading your post is that it sounds like my first pregnancy. I had negative after negative and my doctor waiting until I was almost 5 weeks late before giving me a blood test to find out that I really had been pregnant all that time. Maybe you could call your doctor’s office back and ask to just pick up the paperwork to go for the blood test so that you won’t have to wait so long. Keep the appointment, though, incase the blood test comes back negative, too.

You might want to also note (though I really don't want to scare you) that eptopic pregnancies never have positive urine tests.

Hello,


Its hard to say. Pregnancy and PMS symptoms are very similiar. You should call you doctor to get a blood test for pregnancy and to check your hormone levels.


Keep us posted!
