Hi everyone, I have a question that’s been on my mind day in and day out.
I’m due this coming Wednesday, 10 weeks overdue,
yes, weeks....
I took 2 Kruidvat house brand tests, the 2 for 5 euros throwaway ones,
1 on Saturday, September 6th and 1 on Monday, September 8th, both negative,
I went to the GP on Tuesday, October 7th. She referred me to the midwife, where I had an external ultrasound done, but there was nothing to see. I could have had an internal ultrasound and a blood test, but the shock of seeing nothing was too big at that moment, and I really just wanted to let everything rest for a while, so I left it at that.
Then I was 7 weeks overdue.
I still feel ''different'', bloated, also a bit bigger belly, darker and larger nipples, breasts feel tight, sometimes morning sickness, huge cravings for really weird things, get out of breath easily, and feet and ankles are a bit swollen.

Does anyone have an idea what I should do best?
I really don't know anymore at this moment.
After one miscarriage, I hope so much that this time it's the real deal...

Thanks in advance so much for your time.

    @rosalina,

    Back to HA then, and ask for a referral to a gynecologist and blood tests.
    10 weeks is a long time..

    Good luck

    nope not yet but I was thinking of dropping by next week but my fear of needles makes it not easier, I always get super nervous, sweaty and dizzy just at the thought of a needle going into my arm

    everyone can have a hunch I guess (I had one once with a friend and it turned out she really was pregnant)
    I'd say do a test in a few days if you still haven't gotten your period but even those can come back negative if you are pregnant
    the only sure way you know you're pregnant is when you have the baby in your hands but yeah then it's already too late hahaha
    I feel that too, I just feel different, very hard to describe haha I try to just blame it on autumn but it started before autumn even began so yeah...

    Can a gynecologist see more than a midwife? Or have these two professions become the same over time?
    In the past, a midwife didn't have an ultrasound machine, but now they do.
    And definitely, I'm afraid of getting another heavy disappointment that nothing is growing.
    And then what else could it be? Will I get medication, what kind of medication, how does my body react to it? After having gone through the hospital for a year for my lungs, I don't really feel like doing that again if it's not about "my" baby.

    Thanks @MavanMi

    I had an appointment scheduled for next Tuesday to go see the midwife.
    Unfortunately, I got my period this morning
    I had really high hopes, but unfortunately, nothing again....
    Still, thank you all for taking the time.

    Kind regards

    @MavanMi,

    After trying for a year, one miscarriage, and no result, it’s quite a blow when you do find out you’re pregnant...
    But we’re not giving up. Next month, we’ll have another chance. At least, that’s how I try to think about it.

    @MavanMi,

    so sorry to hear this, hopefully you'll get a positive pregnancy test soon and have a very healthy baby.
    For us, it's still a bit less than a month before I should get my period, which I hope at least.
    But this period has been very weird and I still feel ''pregnant'' ''different''
    On Tuesday morning I started bleeding heavily with severe lower back pain and stabbing pains on the left side of my uterus.
    Thursday evening from the 6th to the 7th the bleeding stopped and Friday afternoon it started again, and last Saturday the 8th it stopped again and Sunday the 9th only a bit brownish.
    Still I don't feel like I've had my period yet...
    Has anyone here experienced this??
    What was really nice to hear from my partner was that last night he dreamed about children for the first time hahaha that we had no less than 2 boys and he got a bit upset because he wanted a girl hahahahaha. Still really nice to hear for the first time that he's subconsciously thinking about it haha my heart melted and tears came to my eyes when he told me haa.

    Sorry again for the late reply, been very busy these past days.

    @Rosalina,

    That's what I say, I hope you get a positive test soon. Thanks for your wish, I have the same wish for you.

    And hope it works out for you guys, have a beautiful pregnancy. Your friend said he wanted girls, my partner said the same thing but we ended up with a boy and he's totally crazy about his son..

    @MavanMi,

    I really hope so for you too.
    Hahaha he dreamed that we already had 2 little ones and that he really wanted a girl hahaha but the fact that he was subconsciously thinking about children surprised me, but of course I was very happy about it.

    Well, we keep hoping.
    But it still feels strange...
    When I didn't have any bleeding yet, I felt like there was a small hard football in my uterus. During the bleeding, that feeling was a bit less, but the cramps and stabs took over. But now that the bleeding has stopped again, I really feel like there's a small football in my uterus again.....
    It feels so weird, but I don't dare to honestly say it to my mother or boyfriend hahaha.
    But I'll just wait until next month....

    @rosalina,

    Girl, I really hope you have a good test result in hand by December..
    Yeah, it's nice that your boyfriend is getting involved with it..

    @MavanMi,

    I had a question, hoping you could help me...
    I was expecting my ovulation on Tuesday, November 18th. I had sex with my boyfriend on Friday.
    Since Saturday morning, I've been getting occasional twinges near my fallopian tubes and my stomach is rumbling a bit...

    I don't want to get too excited, but I wanted to ask if it's possible that something might be happening...
    Haha, sorry if it's a bit early, but it feels familiar to ask you things.

    Thanks in advance.

    just another update...
    my due date was December 2nd but unfortunately today, May 14th, I got my period again right when I was still hesitating last night whether to use the test, but unfortunately it wasn't needed anymore...
    of course tears again but unfortunately more pain
    normally I never really had pain in my uterus or in that area, more of an aching feeling in my lower back, but not like this. Yesterday I already had severe stabbing pains in my uterus and the bleeding is really quite minimal.
    maybe a sign that something isn't right??
    or just my body being dramatic hahahaha
    well, everyone, have a nice day and a happy, healthy and fertile 2015 !!!!!!!!!!

    Hey

    I've read your entire topic and I'm wondering how things are going for you and your desire for children now?
