Textbook signs, but Dr. says NEG

I have been experiencing textbook signs:
Nausea
Exhaustion
Hot Flashes
Swollen joints/bloated
Hunger
But went to the doctor and got a NEG! I'm a bit disappointed, but maybe next time.

Hi there...sorry you got a negative. Maybe it's just too early? Did they do a urine or a blood test?

Urine. I requested a blood, but they didn't find it necessary. The nurse said that the urine is used to determine pregnancy and the blood is used to determine how far along in pregnancy.

Hm, that's odd... a blood test is more sensitive, so you may get a neg urine test, but still get a postive blood test. I'm sorry. Do you have any more urine tests you can take at home in a few days? Try investing inthe cheapie $ ones, I heard they're super sensitive and won't cost you a fortune...


Good luck. I hope you get your answer soon... :)
