Poll: who thinks I’m pregnant?

Posted on October 15th, 2007 by kimc

THE CASE FOR PREGNANCY:

  • I am 17 days late.
  • I’ve been slightly queasy for 3 days. I always get morning sickness, usually even before I realize I’m late.
  • I have always been pregnant before the baby reaches The Boy’s age. This is already our longest gap.
  • I have been eating like a pig like a horse like a cow more than usual.
  • I have been noticeably more tired than usual.
  • In the past, my suspicions have nearly always been accurate.

THE CASE AGAINST PREGNANCY:

  • I haven’t been regular since The Boy was born.
  • I failed a pregnancy test when I was 7 days late (10 days ago).
  • Most of my children are sick, so it’s entirely possible that my queasiness means I caught their bug.
  • I stayed up later than usual several nights last week, which would easily explain my tiredness.
  • I have failed at least 7 pregnancy tests in a row.

    my guess is your pregnant, God bless.

  2. Misty, on October 15th, 2007 at 8:34 pm Said:

    Sounds pretty persuasive for positive on pregnancy :)

  3. MamaArcher, on October 15th, 2007 at 8:37 pm Said:

    I have been in this predicament several times and realize that guessing is almost always wrong! LOL

    So here is to wishful thinking…..

    I say no, secretly hoping it is yes!

  4. Sandy, on October 15th, 2007 at 8:44 pm Said:

    I vote for YES! A BFP!

  5. PerryC, on October 15th, 2007 at 8:46 pm Said:

    I think you’re prego….

    ;)
    Love ya.

  6. Michelle B., on October 15th, 2007 at 8:55 pm Said:

    I agree pregnant

  7. Michelle, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:00 pm Said:

    With my littlest, I was 12 days late before I got a faint positive on a test. Give it a couple more days and test again. I hope you get the answer you’re looking for!

  8. Lauren, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:02 pm Said:

    Ok, so the answer of course is to go down to Dollar Tree (they’re supposed to have super sensitive tests) and take another test!

    Plus…you can buy alot of tests because they’re only a dollar and 8 cents each!

    But…I think there’s a good chance you are and in that case horray!

  9. VoiceInTheWilderness, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:03 pm Said:

    I hope you are!

  10. Mandy, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:13 pm Said:

    Seems to be leaning toward pregnant! Were you nauseous with The Boy? Girls seem to make me more nauseous in general. Keep us posted! :)

  11. Christina, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:25 pm Said:

    Pregnancy test, nothing…
    I think you might be holding a little bundle of joy!

  12. Jenni, on October 15th, 2007 at 9:35 pm Said:

    Hmmm, I will say no, but then again I’ve been wrong many times!!!

  13. ~*Country Dawn*~, on October 15th, 2007 at 10:01 pm Said:

    I don’t think so…

  14. Grafted Branch @ Restoring the Years, on October 15th, 2007 at 10:15 pm Said:

    Buy a new test (check an expiration date). If you fail it, SEE YOUR DOCTOR! Do not hesitate. Do not wait. Or scoff. Just go.

    Strange things happen. Trust me.

  15. Christina. B, on October 15th, 2007 at 10:53 pm Said:

    lol… i thought you might be preggo even before you posted this.

    I was just thinking… shouldnt she be pregnant by now.

    Take another test!

  16. Kacie, on October 15th, 2007 at 11:03 pm Said:

    Pregnant!

  17. meNmykids, on October 15th, 2007 at 11:46 pm Said:

    Pregnancy tests don’t know everything. Your body knows what it feels like, I’d trust your body. Why do we even make ourselves rely on those tests? I do it too. My husband can always tell even before me, because I get ultra emotional.

  18. Sallie, on October 15th, 2007 at 11:54 pm Said:

    Kim — I really hope you are pregnant! It is what I know from reading that you want. I pray a lot to get pregnant and so does my husband. I know not everyone believes I can because I haven’t had a reversal but my faith comes in God being a healer. That is what my prayer always is.

    As a side note, would you please ask your husband to tell Mr Phillips how pleased I was with my package today. We collect military coins and so this was the perfect prize for the JT400 in my opinion!

    God bless,
    Sallie

    Hmmm… I think you have good points on both sides. But I hope you *are* pregnant!!

    Amy :)

  20. Laura @ Laura Williams' Musings, on October 16th, 2007 at 12:24 am Said:

    My guess is yes and I hope it’s yes! What a blessing!

  21. The Homeschool and Etc. Blog, on October 16th, 2007 at 12:30 am Said:

    Maybe you got pregnant around the same time you were failing these tests and it still wouldn’t show up! Wouldn’t that be funny??

  22. Stephanie, on October 16th, 2007 at 2:09 am Said:

    TELL US you had Perry stop at the Dollar Tree on the way home to pick up another stash of tests…he DID, didn’t he?? WELL???

  23. Rocks In My Dryer, on October 16th, 2007 at 2:31 am Said:

    Yep. Mommas know best.

  24. Marci, on October 16th, 2007 at 2:53 am Said:

    Well, since I always wanted 12 and God only gave me one, I can’t get enough of babies… I vote for pregnancy!!!

  25. Cindee, on October 16th, 2007 at 3:22 am Said:

    I agree with Rocks In My Dryer, plus I think the odds are in your favor! ;-)

  26. The Daring One, on October 16th, 2007 at 7:29 am Said:

    Well, I’m not sure about you, but I’m pretty suspicious of my own symptoms. Good luck!

  27. Milehimama, on October 16th, 2007 at 12:33 pm Said:

    I’m guessing it’s not menopause… so it’s probably pregnancy!

    BTW - if you fail this pregnancy test… look at it the next day or even two days later. Sometimes in very, very early pregnancy a line will show up later and you should wait a couple of days and test again.

  28. Christine, on October 16th, 2007 at 12:51 pm Said:

    Oh I hope you are! It would be a true blessing. After I had my son, I did not regain my fertility until he was 20 months old, when I fully weaned him. I found this odd because after I had my daughter (my oldest child), I got my fertility back while still nursing (around 12 months post partum). My son was an intense nurser to say the least. When I took a pregnancy test, last October, the lines were extremely faint that I was pregnant.(It was a dollar tree test, by the way.) I jumped for joy anyways..and my baby girl is 3 months old, now.Please keep us posted! :)

  29. Christine, on October 16th, 2007 at 1:01 pm Said:

    Hmmmm … toss up, but it’s looking good!!

  30. The Dunhams, on October 16th, 2007 at 1:54 pm Said:

    I want to say YAHOOO - another one! However, the fact that you failed 7 prego tests leaves me a bit skeptical! hm. Time will tell, I guess. I think that you should add “like a bison” to your list of eating habits - those guys are BIG! :0

  31. Cyndi Lewis, on October 16th, 2007 at 2:27 pm Said:

    Go to the doctor! Don’t debate. Either way… God is in control! Best wishes.

  32. HomemakerAng, on October 16th, 2007 at 3:31 pm Said:

    how long are you going to keep us hanging :)…

    I think you are…

  33. Leanne, on October 16th, 2007 at 3:42 pm Said:

    Okay, I sooooooooo hope and pray that you are pregnant! I know intimately that feeling of hoping, so hoping that you are……I’m there too.

    My vote is yes, and I sure hope i’m right!!

    Praying…..

    Ooooh, I think and hope yes!

  35. mj jones, on October 16th, 2007 at 4:42 pm Said:

    please clarify did you fail 7 tests in your lifetime or 7 in the past 17 days???

  36. Kim C., on October 16th, 2007 at 4:49 pm Said:

    Sorry to keep you hanging, but hubby wasn’t feeling well and I didn’t have the heart to ask him to stop on the way home.
    A friend is graciously mailing me some extra tests of hers. Since she lives reasonably near, I should have them very soon.

    mj,
    I’m afraid I wasted those 7 tests in the past 3 months. 3 of them were in the last 2 weeks, though the last one was just invalid rather than negative.

  37. ~*~Hallie~*~, on October 16th, 2007 at 6:32 pm Said:

    I say you are. My sister never ever shows pregnancy on pee tests. She always has to get blood tests to prove it. Maybe this is like that. I hope you are, how exciting!

  38. Catherine, on October 16th, 2007 at 6:42 pm Said:

    Mailing them?!?!?!? How can you stand it?

  39. Rob, Jenny and Baby William, on October 16th, 2007 at 7:20 pm Said:

    Wouldn’t that be wonderful if you were pregnant!

    Jenny

  40. HomemakerAng, on October 16th, 2007 at 7:59 pm Said:

    maybe hubby’s pregnant too…

  41. Andrea, on October 16th, 2007 at 8:12 pm Said:

    Stock the freezer with good European dark chocolate… you may need it!

  42. Lady Why, on October 16th, 2007 at 8:29 pm Said:

    Oh, I hope so! I hope so!!

  43. Stephanie, on October 17th, 2007 at 2:33 am Said:

    I’m on to you, Kim…you’re trying to get your reader numbers up, aren’t you??? You stinker, you’d better give us an update SOON! ;)

  44. Jody from AZ, on October 17th, 2007 at 7:17 am Said:

    Oh, Kim! How exciting! I hope you are. I hope the Lord blesses us with another little one soon too.

    I am praying that you all get feeling better.

    God bless your day!

  45. Happy Mom, on October 17th, 2007 at 4:54 pm Said:

    I’ll admit to checking your blog every few days over the last few weeks….JUST TO SEE IF YOU ARE PREGNANT YET. LOL

    Since our youngest boys are just a couple of weeks apart, and our family is moving into the 2nd trimester expecting blessing #6, it’s like you’re late or something!

    Only God’s timing is best, but I hope with you that he’s chosen to give you a new life now!

  46. MommaofMany, on October 17th, 2007 at 6:02 pm Said:

    I’m hoping you are!! Tell us the minute you find out!
