pregnant or not?


Question Posted Wednesday April 18 2007, 6:11 pm

i got my preriod very late.. so my boyfriend think that i am pregnant. we went to the clinic for five times and i took five urine test. it all came out negative. i am really scared because my stomach is getting big than it was. after that clinic that i took five urine test, i went to a different clinic. when i took another test. it came out negative.
does this means that i am not pregnant? or the test is just messing up. i've been hearing that the urine test is not accurate and also the blood test. i dont know what to do. they wont let me have a ultra sound so i know if its in there or not.
can someone tell me.. if im pregnant or not. i am really scared and i dont want to have a baby.

I would say that you are not pregnant, but if you think you are then wait a while. If your stomach keeps growing and if you get morning sickness, then I would worry. You can send me a message saying what you weighed before and what you weigh now, and if you gain more weight, then you could always message me again. Feel free to message me whenever you need help.

Well, first off I will start of with I am like 100% positive you are not pregnant. If you had your period that means that you are not pregnant. The tests that they do at clinics are usually very very accurate, more than the store bought test. Since you have had 6 tests than I would feel very confidant in myself that I would not be pregnant. The only way that I would be concerned was if you had not had your period.

You have taken enough urine tests to check for hormonal levels that run high when pregnant and blood test as well for all of them NOT to be wrong. (one test yes possibly, but five or more, no)

You stated you "got your period very late" which indicates you were not pregnant and washed the unfertilized egg and hormones out of your uterus, although it is not uncommon to have that period after becoming pregnant or spotting.

There could be three things going on here:

1) False pregnancy. This generally happens to dogs and cats more than humans, but has been known to happen to humans. You mind is stronger-- and mind over matter is evident. Your body can react to that as if it is pregnant but it is not.

2) You might possibly have a cyst or tumor in your uterus or fallupian tube that is causing the bigger stomach and feelings of pregnancy and inaccuracies.

)You could have had a fallupian tube pregnancy and the fetus is dead and not showing up hormones in the urine and blood tests. Only an ultra-sound will show that.

I personally recommend stop going to these clinics and see an qualified OB/GYN and giving the history of this and asking for an ultra-sound. They WILL do an ultra-sound for all the obvious reasons mentioned.

This will either show a fallupian tube pregnancy that's terminated and not passed yet, a cyst or tumor on one or both ovaries. One way or the other you will get to the bottom of it. If it shows none of these, then you suffered the rare "false pregnancy" syndrome. That can be caused by a sincere wish to be pregnant or great fear of being pregnant because you do not want to be pregnant. Opposites.

Yeah i'd say you are 99% not pregnant. Because you are so worried about it your body could be tricking you into thinking you really are by making your stomach bigger. Blood tests are usually pretty accurate so if you haven't already had one i'd suggest you do.
If you are not using any protection then start using it. Condoms and the pill are a good idea. However nothing is 100% effective in birth control.
I hope i answered your question

I'm pretty sure that you aren't pregnant. Like you said, you did get your period, so that's a good sign. Also, taking 10 tests and them all having negative results means the results are probably correct. If you are still worried, you can talk to someone else at a different clinic, but chances are, you're okay.

Sometimes the test can come out negative when it's really positive. Take a pregnancy test from the store, or take a blood test. Blood tests are more accurate.

Im pretty sure that if you had that many tests and they were all negative, you arent pregnant. And your stomach could be getting bigger for other reasons. After all, you said you did get your period, and bloating definately is a side affect for that time of the month. Also you could be gaining weight. If you arent on the pill right now, I suggest you go on it. And wear a condom. Im not sure if you wore a condom this time or was on the pill, or both, but if you are freaking out this much, maybe you arent ready for sex... let alone the consequesces... Anyway, you do what you want, but make sure you are protected and you wont get a scare again!!

Good luck.
