Wondering If I Might Be Pregnant
Hi, I have been struggling with the possibility that I might be pregnant this past week and a half. However, I'm not entirely sure and thought I may be able to use this forum to get some other perspectives or answers for some of my questions. I have read a lot of information on the internet, but sometimes it helps to talk to others in a similar position or who have experienced a similar situation. I have been feeling quite nautious this past week and a bit. I wake up feeling extremely hungry mixed with sickness and I usually never wake up feeling hungry or feeling like I want to be sick. Usually I do not have a sense of smell, but lately my sense of smell has increased off the charts which is very unusual for me. Even my taste has changed a little. I have increased urination throughout the day which is extremely unusual for me and they are very short, almost like I am forcing myself to go to the toilet, but feel the need to as well. My first instinct with these symptoms made me think I might be pregnant. I took a test, but the test turned out to be negative. I took this as a sign that I wasn't and maybe they were all in my head, but the symptoms still persist. I have read that a woman's HCG levels can be very low in early pregancy and I am wondering if this may probable. I have taken another 2 tests since the first one and both of them have come up negative. However I have not taken the test early in the morning for the first pee of the day, which appears to be a lot more than normal, but i'm usually still sleepy so I forget to take it. Both times I am not sure if I used the test correctly and it felt as though I was forcing myself to do so and I'm wondering because of this my urine may have been diluted causing it to show a false negative? I have been to the doctors and had a blood test I go and get the results tomorrow. I am supposed to get my period this week and they still are not here. I had only just started taking the pill again when my boyfriend and I slept together, but I had missed 1 or 2 pills and I knew I wasn't protected. If there was any chance of him getting me pregnant it would be from the pre-cum which until now I was unaware could cause pregnancy. I have still been taking my pill, but have missed about 8 pills of the packet, but tried to keep taking it to ensure I would receive my period on time. It still has not showed up and although I have been under stress for the past few weeks my body is used to this as I stress all the time and have had 2 periods before starting back on the pill which were regular times apart. Therefore this time my period not arriving while I have started the pill is a bit worrying. My boyfriend and I slept together the 10th and 11th of september its now been about 16 days since then and the tests have been negative, but im wondering about how this conceiving stuff actually works is it possible that I might be and I have tested too early or have done the tests wrong. I also feel exhausted at the end of the day when I have done barely any work.. I am extremely confused. I know the blood tests are back tomorrow, but my doctor says its possible it can be wrong and if I don't get my period to take another blood test. I have also read that people were 9 weeks along in their pregnancy before their HCG levels showed they were pregnant. If anyone has any information or any advice that might help me it would be great. Thank you
