i know abt the test. just wanna consult some experienced people here.

Here is the situation.
me and my wife last sex (dec 7) and up to today (21 jan) she is still not having her period.
we tested for pregnancy since end of December to (11 Jan) but it shows negative, so. my question is. was the time when we test was too soon for pregnancy detection??

advise please. confused as hell

negative tests can be wrong. Positive tests are rarely wrong.

U can try again. If the test comes out negative, it could be because your hcg hormones may be low (if pregnant) and is not detectable. Sometimes if you leave the test long enough, they can detect faint "positive". But usually 6-8 weeks pregnant hcg levels would be high enough to determine if positive or not. Usually quite instant.

If your test comes out negative BUT you still suspect pregnant. (got all symptoms of being pregnant, nausea, tender breasts, etc) then go doctor do vaginal ultrasound. They can detect the heartbeat is any at 6-8 weeks. Then congrats!

If your test comes out negative, and there is no symptoms of being pregnant and doctor said NOT pregnant, then you are NOT pregnant.

Not having period doesn't equate to being pregnant. Not having period could be due to numerous factors. Hormones, Stress, cysts, prolypes, polycystic ovary syndrome, eating disorders, etc etc.

Speak to your gynea and express your concerns. If your gynea doesn't give you the care and attention you need, find another gynea that gives you the information you need. they can advise you best on how to proceed.

Some people don't get their periods for a few months at a time.
It's not normal but it happens and they are not pregnant. Ask your gynea everything under the sun that you can think off that is worrying you until you are satisfied. cause you paid for his/her services and expertise already so you might be clear about what is happening to your wife.

when is your wifey suppose to have period ? you can use that test 1 week after the period due.. If you still have doubt, i would suggest you to do blood test (most accurate). If detected HCG >5 means your wifey is pregnant!

Anybody knows where to get a patch for women cant get pregnant after having c-sec? And how much it cost?

What kind of patch do you mean?

I have a question: I did my triple blood test 1 week plus ago. And I called the hospital to check the result. Nurse told me if she didn't call me means everything is fine. But I m curious. Is this normal procedure? I thought normally patient should get review or at least a notification after test result is out?

It's a normal procedure I guess. My gynae did explain the test result to me during my following check up

Can someone suggest me where we can check for fertility problems?i don't know if me n my wife have any problems, but we want to check.

FYI, we have been married for 1 years. My wife period is unstable. Sometimes she have it after 2 months. Is it a problems?

I ask for government hospital, but they said if we have been married for two years only they can check on us.

i just want to have a check-up.

Thanks.

Hi guys.

I always hear this saying about "mommas in early pregnancy are advised to avoid doing heavy works, and to move around a lot".

How far is the saying is true?

My wife was recently confirmed pregnant, and she has some bleeding/spotting. Question is; does that mean she has to lie down on the bad all the time? Or is some kind of exercise is okay?

Advise please, thanks.

Bleeding at first trimester is not a good thing....exercise like taking a walk, shopping is ok....but dont lift heavy things..

^ Thanks very much for the reply

Told my wife about it just now, and she was grinning!.

So I was like, dear, you got bleeding le.
Oh, is it? I only hear the shopping part.

LOL.

So, if I got this correct, it is okay to do some exercies, like taking a walk. Is sweeping, mopping the floor, or cleaning the dishes considered okay too?

Light exercise r encouraged... mopping hv to be really careful, cause chance of falling down is high due to wet n slippery floor....but i do clean n mop when my due date is near n over, lol......cleaning dishes definitely ok lah....i even bath my dog, hehe....just be extra careful, n remember no high heels r allowed.

Old ppl always say if din exercise, when go for labor will suffer a lot....i oso got ask doc n he said exercise can help to build up stamina, which will be very important during delivery...

So pls get ur wife to do some light exercise, it will definitely help.

Thanks t3ing t3ng.. I got my result during my regular follow up

Hi magaline

Is your wife confirm pregnant? my wife is going through the same situation as your wife as well now. and yes it's very very confusing and frustrating sometimes

hey everybvody i just need some consultation and advise...

last week my wife and i tried for a kid (intercourse) everything was going as usual.. when i ejaculated in her and all..but unsure where is she on her ovulation state

and later on the day, i found out that she consume ECP, because of some "last minute" change of mind and that infuriates me alot.. we been trying since last year and seems like shes giving up on having a kid now coz her career is about to move up...

i just wanna know by consuming ECP (escapelle) after intercourse, does that means that she wont be pregnant?or there is a chance coz its a full-on ejaculation..

Spotting no good, just leave those housework aside, my hubby don't even let me wash plates...mummy gotta be patient stay at home until everything stabilize. my 2 cents.

Indeed, spotting is not good. My wife was having spotting, and upon further check with the OB/GYN, she's diagnosed with silent miscarriage.

Already undergone D&C procedures last Saturday, now at home recuperating.

So sorry to hear that, hope you and your wife coping well. Take good care.

^ Thanks for the wishes, 3rock222
