Thought I might be pregnant. I am lightheaded, hungry all the time, pee all the time, have gained 6 lbs in one months, I have been running a low grade fever of 99.9, I am tired and moody all the time, and I am 2 days late for my period. My doctor took a preg test. It was negative. She is sending me to have blood work done. Does this sound like pregnancy symptoms or am I overreacting.

I am in the same boat you are right now. People keep telling me that the temperature for pregnancy is 101 but mine is only 99ish. All of your sypmtoms are like mine...sounds like pregnancy to me.

Personally i have never heard of fever being a pregnancy symptom. The peeing seems too early as does the weight gain. I actually lost weight before i gained any. But if you are hungry all the time your gonna eat more hence the weight gain. If you are late and due on you could feel heavy and bloated too. A water infection could also be to blame.
Also preg tests can come back negative and be wrong but NEVER positive and be wrong. Try another test in about a week if you still don't come on.

it doesn't really to me.
when i was expecting our son the earliest symptoms i had were being really tired and having really sore boobs i ddin't get this until i was bout 6 weeks gone.
Needing to pee alot doesn't usually come until later in the pregnancy when the baby is heavy enough to put pressure on your bladder.
You wouldn't be running a fever with being pregnant either, nor i doubt put that much weight on in such early stages.
Also the test has been negative and your period is only 2 weeks late, you may have some sort of virus or something but it certainly doesn't sound like preganncy.

hi,
Yes to me these are the symtoms i had with both my pregnancies but the only thing different was that i lost weight instead of gained it at first.
With both my pregnancies also i didnt find out untill i was 8 weeks late with my son and 6 weeks late this time.
From when i was 3 days late for my period with both i took pregnancy test's nearly every week but kept getting negatives so in the end on both pregnancies my gp ended up sending me for a blood test and it was only then that i got my positive results.
You could be like me and have very low hcg level's.
A blood test can pick up even the tiniest amout so yes i'd get one done.
Good luck hope you get the result you want xx.

Pregnancy tests are usually very accurate, but sometimes they show negative. I suggest visiting your female doctor (For the life of me I cannot remember what their called), and they should be able to find out for positive. I also suggest going to a search engine and typing "Pregnancy Symptoms", and see if you match any of those. Also, Anxiety can cause your period to be delayed, if you think you might get pregnant, and you have a lot of anxiety issues over it, you can start to have symptoms that don't exist. I have heard of women being a month late for their period because of this.

It sounds like pregnancy symptoms to me. Ive been having some of them and everyone has been saying im pregnant. The best thing to do is go to the doctor and get blood work done or wait a while and take another one. I hope i helped you out some. Good luck.

If the test was negative - you're definitely not pregnant. My doc said that these tests (even the ones you do yourself from the supermarket etc) are very very sensitive and give a real result. It's probably worry that's making you feel ill. My periods have always been very regular, but last month i was 6 days late and there was a chance that i could have been pregnant, but everything was ok in the end and it was just late for some unexplained reason. Just please try not to worry, as if the doc did a test and it was negative - you're certainly not pregnant.

It sounds like pregnancy symptoms, but it could be anything. I don't remember a low grade fever being a pregnancy symptom. I would just wait on the blood work.

It does sound like pregnancy, however it could be stress too. The urine test at a doctors office can have a highter level to detect HCG (usually around 50), but the blood test will tell you for sure.

I ve had 5 children and none of those symptoms applied to me but everyones different, you dont say how old you are, my mother suffered from similar symptoms as yours and was eventually diagnosed as having type two diabetes best just wait and see what the blood tests reveal, could you be run down?

hi, although some of the symptoms are the same as pregnancy, you might not be, it would be flu or something.
only thing is, if you are only 2 days pregnant it may not show up on a test, so maybe you would be best taking another test in a couple of weeks...
