Avatar n tn He then suggested going for a treadmill stress test which I did today. I got my heart rate up to the required 160 bpm with no pain etc. The results of the stress test were "normal". I am now reading that stress tests in woman very often given false negative results. I don't have high bp, or high chlosterol, I am overweight and wroking on getting it down, no diabetis etc. Realistically no risk factors.
Avatar n tn Actually it is common to get diarrhea while pregnant. Most women get consipated, but others don't. The only thing you don't have is a period. The problems you described could be anything. Stress can definitely cause quite a few of them. You need to figure out what's causing it, and either cut it out of your life or simplify it. At 16 you shouldn't be having a ton of stress issues or many problems with that.
Avatar m tn when i found out i was pregnant with my daughter 2 years ago, i tested positive right away..... is it just stress or could i still be pregnant? what should i do??
3156712 tn?1354121665 For me it was because we have a wood stove to heat our house and it was really dry in our bedroom, it just happens because there is extra blood flow during pregnancy And for the stress test I had one on Sunday , no ultrasound though, they just hooked me up on the machine for 30 mins and every time I felt baby kick I had to press a button and they got a paper record of the babys heart beat and kicks, I went in because I was having extreme pain all around my stomach and back and then I threw u
Avatar f tn So just wondering how bad stress really is for baby? I've been trying not to have stress but baby daddy is making that impossible. It's to where after getting off the phone with him I was throwing up. I haven't thrown up at night once so far and I'm 14 weeks. What could happen to my baby?
893105 tn?1241403334 I've heard it can happen, not often but still, it can happen. Geez, now I'm dying to know if she's pregnant. Has she taken a test? That should tell her, especially if her period is late.
Avatar n tn What reason would a doctor have to request a stress test on a pregnant woman on her due date, when she has no other pregnancy related (or any other) problems? She was just in for a scheduled appointment, and the doctor requested a stress test.
3122654 tn?1375761858 I haven't had the blood test yet. If the test on Wednesday is negative, then I will ask for the blood test. Again, I will ask for experiences and outcomes. Thanks all!
Avatar f tn u can STILL get pregnant stress can cause your period to be late you said you took what like 2 pregnancy tests and they came out negative. maybe your pregnant maybe your not.
1526161 tn?1291681378 As we've said before, you can test two weeks after you two were last involved. If you do not want children do not put yourself in a situation where it can happen. Ovulation can happen at anytime and each women will not have the same signs so you can't go on symptoms hoping it might already have happened. For example, I've had EWCM for three weeks now which you get when you're most fertile, but I'm not ovulating. Are the odds you're pregnant high? No.
Avatar n tn Well honestly, that depends. I'm in the same boat you're in with wondering when to take a test. Some advice that was given to me was to take the test about 2-3 weeks after your missed period. But everyone is different, so it just depends on your body. If you take a test and it's negative, try to test again in a week or so. Good luck!!
705807 tn?1300751246 If stress prevented implantation, women in war-torn countries would never get pregnant, rape victims would never get pregnant, young teenagers from religiously absolutist families for whom there are terrible penalties for pregnancy would never get pregnant, someone who has lost a dearly loved one to death would never get pregnant. Guess what, pregnancies happen in all of those situations. A fight is not enough to prevent implantation.

Avatar f tn Well first of all don't stress cuz girls like that lie about who the bby daddy is just bc they might not even kno so he better ask for dna test to be 100%
Avatar f tn Very often I hear that women confuse the symptoms of menstrual cycle with pregnancy because both are similar. But to my knowledge the symptoms are very week if you are pregnant. But remember every women is different. So it is better not to confuse you until you miss your cycle and then take a test.
Avatar m tn pregnant women sometimes test positive for hiv even though they dont have it.

Avatar f tn Yes you cud be might be to early to test the say wait 2 weeks after ur missed period
Avatar f tn You'll get your stomach hun. I wasn't showing then all of a sudden around 16 weeks I just started blowing up! Not all women show that early! While stress isn't good for you or baby it won't stop it from growing!
Avatar f tn I plan on going into planned parenthood tomorrow to try and get a blood test done for better accuracy n better peace of mind. Can anyone plz tell me how long it usually takes for the blood test results to come back???
Avatar f tn There can be a false positive but modern nuclear stress tests include computer programs that correct for some of this blurring and muffling.
Avatar f tn No significant EKG changes during vasodilator stress test. 2. Normal post stress resting left ventricular wall motion and ejection fraction of about 77%. 3. Mildly severe fixed defect involving the apical anterior wall, likely breast attenuation. 4. No reversible defects noted to indicate ischemia.
Avatar f tn So I'm high risk. At 32 weeks (that's today) I had to start going for non-stress tests twice a week until my baby is born. I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect but I have to say I loved it. The nurse put the heart and contraction monitors on me and gave me a click button. You click the button when you feel baby move. Then she gave me apple juice (but she checked my records to make sure I wasn't diabetic first). They shut the lights off and it was so nice just .
