Re: Pregnant? - February 26th 2013, 01:16 AM

If you're so "convinced" you're pregnant, this is likely why you're experiencing symptoms that could relate to pregnancy. Have you ever heard of an hysterical pregnancy? Yes/No? Well, here's a little break down for you.

An hysterical pregnancy happens when someone is so stressed out over thinking they're pregnant, or wants to have a child so much that they actually put their body in a state where it THINKS it's pregnant, but it's not actually pregnant. Pregnancy tests can come up positive or negative during this time, but there is literally no child in the womb. You could experience all or some of the symptoms, but it's just your body being confused. And, yes, weight gain could be one of those symptoms.

If you were pregnant, the pregnancy tests you've taken would have let you know. Only in rare occurrences do they actually give a false reading. If you haven't had sex, or any kind of intimate contact since November, it's left enough time for you to take a test and have an accurate result. They can give accurate results up to two weeks after having intercourse. If your last cycle was different from what you're normally used to, it could be your body adjusting to a new cycle. Just because you've been regular, or have had light or heavy periods most of your life doesn't mean that they can't change.
