Stealth Pregnancy requires added methods for testing - so to obtain proper fetal care

The Issue

Internationally, more and more women are left out in the cold; while going to through an undetected pregnancy (uterine/abdominal).

Why are women (medically) unassisted?

Because doctors reassure them that they are not pregnant - due to negative standard tests (Beta hCG & Ultrasound).

These same women, are left in a state of emotional confusion, while they continue to experience ongoing pregnancy symptoms, a slow growing abdomen, and unexplained kicks and nudges. 

With the internet at our fingertips, more and more women are uncovering medical journals and news reports, of women experiencing both; undetected AND post-term pregnancies (beyond 43 weeks) - with negative/abnormal tests/ultrasounds.

With this petition, we wish to bring awareness to this increasing phenomenon - so to obtain beyond "standard" blood-work & medical intervention.

[We know some mothers birth healthy babies with little to no hCG present.]

Adding "unconventional" tests such as - Beta Core Fragment hCG/Diluted hCG, Cell-Free Fetal DNA, Prenatal NIPT Screening Tests, MSAFP and Thorough MRI's  directly behind the bowel wall - would be a great way to detect fetal presence, where Beta HcG/Ultrasound is nil.

No mother should be turned away from medical/prenatal care, just because her results aren't 'by the book'.

We will continue to push for these changes, while the number of cases rise (1 in 475).

We will no longer accept that our abdominal growth is that of cysts, IBS, constipation, weight gain or 'phantom pregnancy'.

*NEW Resources: @Stealthpregnancyblog (Instagram) now offers supportive services, tools and public resources for women in need of guidance and assistance; and the courage to move forward (despite medical mistreatment/neglect). 

Please view the women who support and advocate for misdiagnosed pregnancies. 

Kindest Regards,
