The blood test for pregnancy looks for a certain hormone. Normally, this hormone is only found in trace amounts, but during pregnancy its level is supposed to shoot up. Every time they have done this test for my wife, the level of this particular hormone has gone up slightly, but not enough for anybody to consider it a confirmation of pregnancy.

She had an ultrasound back in January or early February. Three doctors so far have told her that since that lower-pelvis ultrasound showed no signs of pregnancy, that there is no way she could be pregnant. The baby would have been about the size of a corn kernel at that point in time, and the purpose of the ultrasound had nothing to do with pregnancy so they weren't even looking for it at the time.

We are seriously thinking about contacting a lawyer.

Honestly if everything is coming up negative for pregnancy I would start having them look for other things that could cause swelling like that. Not sure what they would be, but even the most incompetent doctors find pregnancies pretty easily considering the nature of the beast. Maybe something is going wrong with other hormones or glands etc. Also, she isn't still on birth control (if she was on it to begin with) is she, just in case?

Also I would argue to have an ultrasound done now if you are so adamant that she is pregnant. Her body might not be producing the hormones properly despite being pregant, but an ultrasound is pretty much impossible to miss a baby with if you think she's been pregant for this long. I mean, realistically you don't have to be a doctor to notice a baby with an ultrasound, just might take ya longer to look in the right places.

you should seriously be thinking about contacting a lawyer AND some more doctors, there is something about this situation that would freak me out if i were in it

What sort of situation are you that you're not getting prenatal care? It's usually a standard procedure to do another ultrasound at some point, usually at four months or what is reported to be four months. Are just not opting to go to the doctor then since they said at the beginning she wasn't pregnant? Not that it's a requirement to get monthly check ups while pregnant, especially on a low risk pregnancy and you've been there done that. Just curious...
