|
| I know..dont get excited, Im not pregnant. Im 41. Ive been TTC for 3 years now. My RE has said there is pretty much no chance we could conceive naturally. In July I had surgery to have a big fibroid out, then we've done all the testing to make sure all is well healthwise and horemone wise with both of us. Thumbs up all the way. We did 3 IUI cycles. They not only failed.. but the hormones seriously made me mentally ill. My husband almost moved out of the house (not fun being abandoned during fertility treatment) No pregnanciesSo we are gearing up for a possible IVF cycle. Im supposed to be in my evaluation cycle. I was going to have a day 3 & 10 hormone levels checked and a HSG done. My period is so predictable, I planned a vacation around it!8 days later. No period. Wish I were pregnant.. we did try. But I took a HPT and got a good negative. Not even a hint of a positive. Im sure if it were positive at this stage in the game it would show... dont feel pregnant!I dont feel like my period is due. Other than a harsher than usual PMS that has left me sobbing and not able to get out of bed (very unusual for me) - Ive got mildly tender breasts, a weird yellowish CM, and a pretty normal need to pee quite frequently.. Im very tired too.. but that's pretty much all the time! Im just quite lazy. Can anyone offer any thoughts, advice anything? Im depressed and freaking out here! |

| the HPT may not be able to detect the HCG in your body yet. i would suggest seeing your doc. and have a blood test done. good luck. i hope you get the result you are looking for. |

| I doubt that you are pregnant but if I were you I would go to the doc's office and get a blood test (quantitative HCG TEST) that will show how much, if any of the hormone you have in your system. I really hope you ARE pregnant though - don't give up. |

| It can take a few days for a hpt to show positive.You should use an early detection test as well as testing with first morning urine.You could go to a doctor and get a blood test now if you wanted, but i'd suggest waiting another week and see what happens.Re-test and if it's negative definitely get along and see a doctor. |
