is it possible to worry and think for so long that u are pregnant that your body starts to react to it?

Question

this guy and i sorta had sex but he didnt *** and i didnt ***. 4 days later i got my period on time. That next month i got my period 4 days early and it was normal (it has came early before). 3 weeks after we so called messed around i took a pregnancy test. It was negative. Now a month later i am constantly worrying that i am pregnant. i have no symptoms except that i feel tingling on my left, top right and middle of my tummy. I feel an occasional thump on my left side. I have a daughter so i know its too early to feel a fetus move. Whats going on with me? Is it possible to stress over pregnancy so much that your body reacts to it? Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

yes, it is possible. It is even possible to think you are pregnant to the point your abdomen actually swells up to full pregnancy size (that is VERY rare though). I forgot the name for it. It is also very easy to mistake many pms or exaggerate other symptoms for pg symptoms. If you are that worried about being pg, stop having sex. (Or sorta having sex, which I don't understand what that means?) If you are REALLY worried, go to the health department, and they will give you tests and info.

Answer 2

Weird thing is the week my Husband and I were going to go on our honeymoon I was worried, more like petrified I was pregnant. It got so bad that my menses (period) didn't come as it usually does (I'm on the pill) on Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday Morning. I was so worried I made an emergency appointment with my ob/gyn for noon on thursday. That thursday morning when my menses still hadn't come down, I made an early morning trip to Wal-Mart and picked up a double pack of Clear Blue Easy and tested at work. It came out negative but I came back to the trash can ( I know eww but hey) and I looked at it again in case it changed, but no, it was still negative. So noon came along and I was waiting to see my doctor and suddenly I got a cramp and went to the bathroom, worries were gone lol. I guess the answer to your question, in my case is yes, your body can react to stress by making you feel like you are pregnant when you aren't. Go the the doctor and get a blood test if you truly are that worried.

Answer 3

It's normal to stress like that. I found myself tricking myself into really thinking I was pregnant, feeling pregnant, and everything, and no baby (though for me it was because I wanted to be pregnant so badly).

Also, if you pay attention to your body often enough - the thump on your left side is your intestines. I get this very often and always fart soon after! Really! If you are skinny-ish, you can press hard on your left side and feel your intestine in there. That culd be causing the moving feeling. I always say that the gas I feel, feels exactly like a baby moving! In fact I mistook baby movements to be gas for the first 2-3 weeks that I felt them!

Just give it some time...based on what you said you probably aren't pregnant but just try and relax. no use stressing over it unless it's confirmed. You'd have 9 months to think about it anyway.

Answer 4

Yes it is possible, phycho-symatic (spelled wrong i know) and all that.

Preg tests can give a false negative but never give a false positive (doc told me that), but if you're really really worried go to your doc, ask for a blood test and have him examine you.

Or just go buy another over the counter test, these days they are pretty accurate, two negatives that are false are pretty unlikely.

And as you've said you've been pregnant before, the bumping you feel however is more than likely just gas and your imagination running away with you.

Answer 5

You could be having a psychological pregnancy. That's where you think you are, convince yourself you are & really aren't. You have the breast tenderness, belly pains, hip aches, cravings, sometimes morning sickness and/or nausea. I went through one when I was 18. I had to go to the OB to have an exam done to prove to myself that I wasn't pregnant. I know a few close friends who've had them too at a young age. I've known women who've had them older than late teens, early 20s or 30s. My suggestion is make an emergency appointment with your OB/GYN to have yourself checked out. It'll put your mind at ease.

Answer 6

People that want to be pregnant or don't want to be pregnant strongly often feel what you are feeling. I wanted to be pregnant for so long and experienced all the symptoms of pregnancy. What I would ask myself if I were you, is why are you taking chances if you worry that you might get pregnant? Are you really wanting another baby and not admitting that to yourself? People that really don't want a baby double up on their condoms. Your boyfriend is taking a chance, too. Is he wanting a baby, also? Good luck!

Answer 7

in case your sessions are often established through dates, then definatly bypass all the way down to the docs for a try, if no longer effective then i'd propose you to purchase your self a house being pregnant try and use it fist wee the subsequent morning, following the outcomes as shown on training, both make a docs appointment or re-try the subsequent 10 days. My own opinion is in case your sessions are established as clock artwork and your transformations in wellbeing, then it sounds like you in all likelihood are yet continuously verify your self out.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Yes, it's called a hysterical pregnancy. Or what is called false pregnancy that is imagined.
