Has anyone ever been pregnant. But home pregnancy tests say negative? just curious. I have alot of the signs. It could be something else. I have thick CM and i dont take mucinex or anything to thin it. (i'm not ttc)
I have an appt next week to figure out forsure what is going on with me. I've just never had my body be so out of whack before so I'm just kinda confused about it.

do you mean you suddenly have thick cm-but its not time you should be ovulating?
heavy mucusy discharge can be a sign of pregnancy. the only way your preg tests would be false negative is if you are testing too early.
wait 1-2 weeks after your period would be late and then test.
its good to see the doc anyway. so much can affect your cycle-i had lots of extra mucusy discharge for months, while i ovulated, before ovulation, after..etc. i was taking alot more robitussin and had started cayston around that time also...i just think that alot that happens in our body can alter our cycles.

as far as i know i've always had thick CM. at my last pap smear, she told me it was thick. she thought i had polyps at first, then realized it was just mucus. (gross) but I couldnt tell myself that it was thick, i just always figured it was.

I have some signs of being pregnant. which could always be something else, I was just checking to make sure, since I've never had these signs before (all at once, atleast). Sore breasts. REALLY sore! Really sleepy all the time. emotional. I've even gained weight. which is something i've always had trouble doing.
the only thing that is weird, is i've had 3 periods within a 6 week time. so i;ve not missed a period so far. Thats what made me schedule an appt. to figure out whats wrong since i've never had that happen before. I didnt know if there could be a chance im pregnant and the test just arnt showing.
Im sure its something else though. I'll find out next week.

i dont' know if this will help but i have been preggy x3 and unfortunately all ended in early m/c.anyways,what i am saying is when i was pregnant 1st time round my AF was 10 days late(started AF 12 days late)-i did a pregnancy test twice at 8 days late but all kept coming up as negative. i made an appt with the GP(this was 12 days past AF).the morning of seeing the GP my AF started and was very heavy and very painful which my AF is never like this.
ok,so got to Gp and expalined and he mentioned that i may have had a early miscarriage,he took bloods and few days later got results which showed was pregnant but pregnancy had failed.
the 2nd and 3rd time i was only 5 to 7 days late and pregnancy tests came up positive.
so,its strange but i dunno maybe its my body but sometime i have heard that sometime a home pregnancy test won't show up positive,you would need to get a blood test done.and some ladies dont get a positive pregnancy test till 5/6 months through pregnancy so everyone is deifferent.but best thing is to get bloods done whihc can tell you asap.
hope this helped and i didn't talk too much <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
anywayz,lots of babydust and luck your way!
im now seeing a fertility specialist(low progesterone levels)
