Negative HPT = not pregnant at this time

Like your physician said, it is likely that you are having a longer than normal cycle which can be caused by delayed ovulation.

YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT.
But that's just how "I feel".
Andplusalso, science.

mrsdee15 · February 2016

I thought I was doing well staying away from these.

Negative test = not pregnant at this time. If you are later found to be pregnant, feel free to move on to your BMB without the update.

Sorry your not pregnant, test again later. Follow your doctors advice.

[Deleted User] · February 2016

So you had a doctor literally look at your uterus, tell you that you were not pregnant... and you decided that was not sufficient and you needed to consult strangers online who might be able to tell you that you actually are pregnant.

You are regular until you are not.

LadyMillil · February 2016

What does "feeling pregnant" feel like? I mean, I don't know what else to say. Regardless of how you feel, You had an ultrasound and there was nothing there so you are not currently pregnant.

babymish · February 2016

I loath the "feel pregnant" statement. This is the strongest denial post I have witnessed. Your doctor gave you good advice. Anovelatory or late ovulation cycles are normal.

I'd recommend reading taking charge of your fertility and temping as this kind of situation can drive a person crazy.

Ultrasounds tend to be slightly more accurate than wishful "feelings."

*TW* previous pregnancy mentioned

I had HG with DD, it felt like my insides were liquifying and trying to escape from my mouth. That didn't start till after I could turn a test positive though

NamelessAria · February 2016

I've definitely had long cycles where I "felt pregnant." Like for example, I had a 50something day cycle a year or so ago where I "felt pregnant." I had a week or two where I guess I something I really shouldn't have or something? I was having nausea, food aversions, fatigue and generally "felt pregnant." All that was around CD25. So I'm like "omg maybe.... maybe I'm pregnant!? I'll wait till my period is 'late' on CD29 and then test because I feel so pregnant!" Let me take a moment to say that, yes, I was a complete idiot. Especially considering that I was using the Internet's suggestion of counting CD29 as being "late" even though my periods have, always and forever since I started having periods at 14 or whatever it is, been irregular. I've never had consistent 28 day cycles so to even entertain the possibility that I'd be "officially late" on CD29 was absolutely ludicrous. But I digress. Back to my story about how I felt so pregnant. Turns out, nope not pregnant. Pregnancy test was negative and then finally I got my period. It was just a long, frustrating cycle with some poorly timed food poisoning or, I don't know, whatever it was.

What I learned from that is that "feeling pregnant" tells you absolutely nothing. You can "feel pregnant" and definitely not be pregnant. The other thing I learned was that you can never just assume at CD29 that you're late.

Basically what I'm saying OP is that yes I've been where you are. Ya know, minus having an ultrasound to confirm that I was definitely not pregnant. But more or less where you are. And it was just a long cycle. From everything you've said I'm going to agree with your doctor that you're definitely not pregnant at this time.

I'm going to suggest that you start temping and charting. Then at least if you have another cycle where you ovulate a lot later than normal for whatever reason you'll know that you ovulated later. Knowing that you ovulated later will give you some peace of mind because you'll know not to expect your period till later and you'll have a good idea of when you should test. Cycles are regular until they're not. Your cycle may have just decided it's done being regular. Or you may go back to having 28 cycles and this was just a weird fluke. You never know.

MonaLisaRalphio · February 2016

I feel pregnant when I've had too many tacos. So I guess what I'm saying is CONGRATULATIONS IT'S A TACO.

ArtlessIbex · February 2016

I'm curious about the "pregnant" feeling. OP, is your uterus twitching? Do your ovaries feel full? Is your cat/dog unusually affectionate? Has a child recently asked if you were pregnant?
You're not pregnant right now, but you know that. Feel free to read (please!) the newbie guide and learn how your body works. It will only benefit you.

I don't know about anyone else but usually when I feel pregnant, I just need to poop.

onefootinthebayou · February 2016

I love how "anyone else have a similar issue?" Really means, "anyone else have a similar issue and end up being pregnant?" Which also means, "Am I pregnant?" Which is against the TOU.

OP, PPs gave good advice. Read the pinned newbie threads, read the TCOYF book, and start learning about your body and how pregnancy really happens. I'm not even being sarcastic, it's much more complicated than I initially thought and though these boards are a great resource, users are focused on science and facts, not wishes and rainbow dreams.

Okay. That might be enough to properly convey my feelings.

Also this. Or, you know, I'm just about to start my period, and I'm just bloated.

edit: need a comma before "and" when it's a conjunction. School House Rocks taught me that.

@WinchesterGirl - you either need quotes around the URLs, or to just use the magic paper button to insert the image using just the URL (not the img src= part or the < >

edit: it turns out "insert" and "instead" aren't the same word. Who knew.

This happens. It really isn't that strange. You should read TCOYF.

Also, you don't need to request a blood test if you aren't getting positive home tests. Just keep taking home tests about once a week and if you go 60 days without a period or a positive test, then call your doctor again.

I sometimes feel like I'm a pretty pretty princess... A girl can dream can't she?

picklesplease · February 2016

Of the past 6 months, when I think I'm pregnant...it's just PMS. You should really listen to your doctor and read Taking Charge of Your Fertility (TCOYF).

ladystinson · February 2016

Uterus goggle were LITERALLY used.... by a dr.... and its still being questioned?

reactions wow surprised really oprah

GhanimaAtreides · February 2016

Ok, I'm genuinely concerned if she's been pregnant before. Like, what are we basing this "I feel pregnant" statement from? Because if it isn't prior experience, I'm REALLY curious to know.

writeress · February 2016

******TW previous pregnancy/loss mentioned******

When I was pregnant before my loss, I actually did *feel" pregnant. My boobs felt like they were a thousand pounds and the fatigue was out of control. So... I tested and got a BFP. So, I do believe it's possible to ~sense~ you're pregnant.

However, if you've tested and even had an ultrasound and it's still negative...you're not pregnant. I kind of get the wishful thinking OP, but I think it's best if you accept that you may just be having a longer cycle this time around.

FiancB · February 2016

*previous pregnancy mention*

I had a week or so while on Nexplanon where I really "felt pregnant". My boobs got giant overnight, literally nearly a cup size. It was really painful and I was terrified that I was pregnant. I wasn't.

When I actually was pregnant, I only took a test because I was 13 DPO and I don't normally make it that long. I was sure that I was not pregnant and only even took a test because I take some meds that are contraindicated during pregnancy. I was having zero symptoms whatsoever. I was genuinely shocked when that second line came up. I didn't "feel pregnant" for a few more days.

Home pregnancy tests are very, very accurate. Really, pretty much just as accurate as a blood test. Let alone an ultrasound. That's a new one. You're probably going into one of your doc's "this one time I had this patient that... " stories. Check yourself because you're headed toward hysterical pregnancy crazyville.

wtwsn89 · February 2016

honestly ive never had so many rude comments before and im a nurse it is completely possible to have false negatives on urine tests i just was asking if anyone else has experienced it i personally know people who have.... just so you know people who have been pregnant with twins have had negative urine results!! btw ive been pregnant before!!

Did they also have ultrasounds that showed that they were not pregnant?

wtwsn89 · February 2016

this is what i get for posting on a forum a bunch of ignorant answers seriously!! and ultrasounds are good but if its still really early they arent able to see the only reliable way to detect early pregnancy is with blood work and follow up in a few weeks with another ultrasound but hey this is what i get for posting somewhere with no medical opinions love it

If you already know people who have personally experienced false negatives, why are you asking here, too?

And you say you wanted medical opinions, but you are ignoring what your doctor said??

You're fun

MrsDho11 · February 2016

Honestly, what were you expecting? You went to a doctor, who told you that you weren't pregnant. The doctor then gave you a reasonable timeline and plan for if you still didn't get your period. So obviously if you're still here, asking an Internet board of strangers if you're pregnant, you don't care about medical opinions!

you just want someone to say, "omg! That happened to me, but you're totes KTFU!"

Maybe we're a harsh smack of reality, but at least we aren't blowing smoke up your bum and making reality more difficult to accept.
