Pregnant after a Tubal???????

Ok, I don't know if it is possible or if I am creating the symptoms in my head, but, has anyone had the experience of having gotten pregnant after a tubal? Here is the situation:

Tubal (clips) 2 1/2 years ago, Had my period on 1/1/07 like normal, but since christmas I am nausous in the mornings, now my stomach feels so heavy and the last two nights my breast have been sore when I take off my bra. Also, on 1/2/07 I took a hpt and it was negative. Does anyone have any idea as to whether or not I could still be pregnant after all this?

If anyone has had a similar experience or any thoughts in general on this I would really appreciate some feedback.

Thank you,

Hi,
I had my tubal almost two years ago and about 2 months ago I had all the same symptoms- I was even throwing up!Well, needless to say I was slightly worried and went to see my ob. I got a preg test(neg) andmy ob said sometimes through hormonal fluxuations your body will produce more harmones, blah blah blah....also there is a syndrom called post- tubal ligation syndrom,(no joke) and when your tubbies are tied as your body obsorbs the eggies it produces funky hormones and messes up yor cycle/ moods- ect. Its treated with (get this) birth control pills.
so breath a happy sigh of relief and don't worry until your 2 months late or showing.
plus its only like 1 in 200 women who get preggy after ligation.

I'll tell you what, this whole tubal thing isn't going so well for me. I figured it was a good idea because we didn't want anymore kids (we have 3) and the pill made me depressed. If I am not taking the pill I get pregnant, nothing else seems to work. Anyway, since the tubal I have 8-9 day periods and they are so heavy I am changing pads every hour for three days straight. Now this....At this point I wish I was pregnant just so I know what the heck is going on. I just feel pregnant, and I probably have my self so worried that I am the my body is convinced it is and now I am having symptoms...I don't know anymore, but I really appreciate your response. I just got nervous because I have two friends that had their periods (heavy) for the first two to four months they were pregnant and they had healthy babies.

Oh well....Again I appreciate your input...

Thanks and take care....

I don't want to scare you but my teacher in 8th grade had a tubal and ended up getting pregnant TWICE afterwards!! It is rare but it does happen so if you miss your period by all means take a test...
