No BFP til later in pregnancy?

Hi all,

Have been reading a lot of forum threads from america where there have been cases of people getting BFNs for quite a way into their pregnancy, thinking there must be cases here too- does anyone know of this happening or have had it happen to them? If so, what were your experiences?

I don't think theres much chance that I am pregnant but anything's possible I suppose. I've had many many BFNs but I seem to have a growing belly and I don't know what's causing it so just exploring all options!

Thanks

id get a Blood Test/ scan to find out if your worried! especially if your not taking prenatal vits etc

Rach.. do you have any other symptoms.. like tiredness, ms or sore bbs?   but i think you should get a blood test done ...

Totally agree. Who is your doc?? Theres no way my GP here in palmy would let my tummy grow and not have found out why

Oh another thought, is it bigger at different times of the day? Is is still growing or has it stopped?

If it is still growing maybe you could start measuring it to show the dr....

Oh yeah, i went to Dr Russell at city drs, he was the one who requested a blood test. He said he wasn't sure what was causing it, and i could look into getting a scan or seeing a specialist but told me bout the costs and waiting lists and i just opted to have the blood test. result was neg so i tried to forget about it.
But then i was reading all those things on the net and i thought if it's even the slightest bit possible i needa find out. Went back and saw jade robertson who is normally really great, she told me it was just bloating and was really short with me, saying i dont need a scan etc. Oh yeah i also told her that id been spotting for the last couple months straight and she sorta scolded me for not comin to get that sorted out, prescribed me pills to stop the bleeding and sent me on my way.
Felt pretty stupid after that and, again, tried to forget about it.
The more i thought about it tho, the more i was sure it wasnt just bloating.
So its been rather up and down..

My actual GP is at orbit medical but it still costs me $61 to go there, so id rather just cut out the middle man.

Sorry very long and convoluted

kebabkat - you probably get that good pricing through the PHO scheme... when you change practices the new doctor has to enroll you under the PHO they work for, and the funding only comes through a couple of times a year I think - so there could well be a delay between enrolling with a new doctor and getting the good pricing.

This is what happened when I changed doctors, I changed in around August 2008 and PHO funding came through in January 2009.

Hmmmm maybe but when I switched to them (as my old GP was in Bulls) I got that pricing straight away. Either way he is still an excellent doc and he was the only one fighting for me and DH when we went through our massive saga with Jared

I wasn't going to admit this incase im completely wrong and seem like a crazy person, but what the hey. I think i have felt some quickening sensations, plus aches and tightening. mostly while tryna get to sleep. altho the aches up my side are in the morning.

Im not embarassed in front of you ladies anymore as you're all so lovely, so if it turns out im imagining all this its ok. at least i can be an example to otha ppl in the same position maybe.

hey rach was just thinking of you, did you manage to find out if anything was wrong in the end???
