Hello and thank you in advance to all who try to help =)
I had my tubes tied after my last pregnancy (17 months ago) and since then I have not paid much attention to what day of the month my period starts. I do know I had my period in February (my guess is I started on the 14th or 21st - it was a Sat. and towards the later part of the month) and it's now going on April and I have not had a period. I know it's very unlikely that I could get pregnant after having my tubes tied BUT I conceived my three boys extremely easily. I'm just a fertile mertile ;) So, I do not doubt my bodies ability to get pregnant. I did take a pregnancy test last thursday (March 26) and it was negative. I don't currently have health insurance, if I did I would just make an appt to see my Doctor. What are your thoughts? Think I could be pregnant? FYI my periods are never late. If anything they come early and they last abour 7-8 days (ugh!!).
Thanks!!

P.S. If I were indeed pregnant would I get a positive pregnancy test if it was an ectopic pregnancy?

I had my tubs tied a little of 6 years ago and I have missed my period. I have a not in my stomach also. I took a test today and it was negative. The only thing I have done different is I started walking and started drinking only water. Would this cause me to miss a period? Or is it possible that I'm pregnant and the test is wrong? I have been pregnant 6 times. My first I miscarried. The next 3 I had 3 boys, and the last one I miscarried. Iam 32 years old. I have never had a problem getting pregnant and I have a false negative. I don't have insurance so I can't just got to doctor. How long should I wait before I have to go to the doctor or take another test?

Well I'm going through a similar situation myself. My cycle come in the middle of the month, and in August it stayed on for two days instead of five, and my tubes are tide also for over 16 years now, and I'm never late either. I took a test two weeks ago, and it was negative also, and I'm very fertile as well. HELP!!!Could I be pregnant?

Do I need an ultrasound to find out or can I use a hpt test

Hello Anonymous,
With your history, it is possible that you are pregnant.
You may want to take a home pregnancy test first. Levels of hCG, the hormone that is produced only during pregnancy, can be detected in urine about 12 to 14 days following conception. Levels can be detected earlier in blood, about 11 days following conception.
It might be better to wait until your period is late by at least one week. Unless of course, you track your ovulation and know exactly when you ovulated, add in when you had sexual intercourse, and factor in that it take about 7 to 10 days for the fertilized egg to travel and implant in the uterus, you might consider testing earlier.
With a positive urine test result, then your gynecologist/obstetrician will order a blood hCG test and ultrasound.
Please keep us updated.

I am 27 andbi had my tubes tied 2 years ago. I have been very tired and eating ice like crazy. My last period was very off. I think I am pregnant but I'm not late yet but my stomach has the hard feeling u get when your first pregnant. I don't want to say nothing to no body cause I don't want to be looked at like crazy.
