My husband and I have been trying for 2 months to get pregnant. I thought I was pregnant last month, but had my period one day late and had probably the heaviest period of my life (clots the size of golf balls the first day, normally I do pass clots, but nothing as big as this), in the first 12 hrs went through two super tampons and an overnight maxi pad. For a week leading up to that I had extremely tender breasts and was lethargic, also experienced some mild lower abdominal cramping. My thought is that I had a early miscarraige, but as I didn't think i needed medical attention, I didn't go into the MD's office. This period started on August 22nd, and since I stopped taking BCP 6 months ago I have been a 28-day girl every month since. I am currently (if I am doing my math correctly) 4 days late. I started to have some mild spotting (so light that a liner is overkill) starting late last night which led me to believe that I would start my period today and maybe my body was just in flux. But no period, just very light spotting. I haven't had much in the way of symptoms, just some mild neasea that is fairly constant for about a week, slightly better with food, nothing though that screams 'morning' sickness to me. Last couple days some very mild low abdominal pain.
Oh - this might be helpful too. Last month we tried really hard and invested heavily (well, more myself than him) into getting pregnant and it was a huge letdown when I wasn't, I was sure I was... but we all know how deceitful our minds can be to our bodies... After the emotional turmoil I talked to my husband and basically told him I can't do this every month, that it was just to devastating to be so invested in it. So we are still trying, but I'm not as heavily invested emotionally. Haven't thought that I was pregnant until just a couple days ago when I missed my period, I honestly was very surprised (hopefully and pleasantly though). So if I'm not there's always next month, and heck, practice makes perfect... and practice is certainly fun :-)
I have taken a couple tests, all were negative, but I know it's still a bit early and I could have low hormone lvls at this point too. What do you think? Could this be a pregnancy or do I have residual hormones that just whacked up my system from all the stress I put on myself last month? I know it could be either, and a girl has to hope :-) but I just want to hear what someone else has to say about this. Not many friends of mine have gone through pregnancies so few people to ask for advice, and I'm afriad (stupidly so) to talk to Mom as I know that'd get her hopes up and I'd rather not let her (and myself) down again so I decided to wait if I am pregnant to keep it as a need-to-know basis with my friends/family until the second trimester...

Ok here is the deal. My last period was on August 27th. Had sex once during ovulation week. My period was due yesterday, September 24th and it is usually right on time or early. I had very light brown spotting yesterday and some very little today. I am having cramping, swollen tender breasts and I just feel "out of it". I took a HPT yesterday and it was negative. Is there still a chance that I might still be pregnant? Should I take another HPT tomorrow or wait longer? Has anybody ever had the same symptoms and have found out that they were pregnant?
Here is a good one for u. I was put on birth control pills to help with indometriosous(spelling). I ended up off the pills for about a wk and didnt take them as regular as I should. I started taking them again about 2 days before unprotected sex. Now I am naus., gassy, sore tender breasts that are firming up, dumb as a doornob, crying and bitchy. Also following is I cant stand any pressure on my stomach and its swalling, cant cook food without trying to heave, eating the weirdest veriety of foods including spicy foods which I dont eat cause I had ulcers, but ceyenne didnt even seem to bother me now. Cant go by missed period cause I dont have one with these pills.... If I take a test will it still read proper? just stopped takin pills yesterday. Seems like pregnancy to me but just want some opinions please. 8-|
WOW!! OK!! I'm back and will tackle you one by one OK?
Stormy - Sounds like symptoms of pregnancy and before I put my "reputation" on the line ;-) XD I need a little more information! When were you sexually active and I know your periods are wonky but when was the last one, and when you say pills - do you mean the BCP? IF so I have another thought about the symptoms but lets see 1st OK?
Lucky - I'm sure you probably have an answer by now, IF you haven't just let me know and I will help you further OK?
Schuyler - I do think you had a miscarriage last month - as many doctors will tell you, if you have MAJOR bleeding it can mean that you have had an early miscarriage! Especially if this hasn't happend before! And yes you are right about being stressed out about being pregnant, can cause symptoms of pregnancy, that isn't always the case! As I've come back on line a few days too late for everyone, do you have any new symptoms or has period come on? Just let me know and then we can talk some more OK? If you are having unprotected sex and you are late - even with light spotting, it definitely can mean that you are pregnant! Also IF you did have a miscarriage then your hormone levels will still be up there! Causing more optimum conditions for pregnancy!
Cbaby: It sounds like pregnancy symptoms - except the depression!!!! BUT - I always throw that in - Period symptoms are virtually identical as pregnancy symptoms. Has there been any new developments since your post!
I will help you all when I find out the latest information! Fingers crossed for all of you!!!

Yes the pills r bcp and my last full period was march. been takin them since. I am not to take the one for ur cycle. Dr said not to have a cycle for at least 6 months. I had light bleeding start after 4 days of not being on them and it stopped 1 day after takin them again. my bf and I had sex the next day and ever since, several times a day, not even thinkin preg was an option cause I havent gotten preg in yrs. My birth son is 19yr next month. I am now suffering freezing parts of my body but not all. Feet, middle of belly, and butt. I crave heat on my stomach and eating spicy food seems to keep heartburn and a dull. non spicy kicks it up. Thats not normal.... Not that we were planning this but I was wanting to know chances cause I am afraid i will come back nag but I really feel weird and faint inside.
Sorry I will answer mor in depth. I ran out like the 27th of May and started takin them again about 3rd of Aug. heck of a time gettin refilled by doc and medical. I had my cycle for about 3 to 4 days maybe. Had sex for the first time with my bf on the 6th of aug...
Hi Stormy! I have to say I'm a little concerned about the BCP being stopped and started! Due to the fact that you were basically starting the pill in August like a first timer, and had unprotected sex within the 1st month, you MIGHT just be pregnant! I would like you to take a HPT! and see! I am concerned that IF you are indeed pregnant, and you are on the pill, then this could be causing the symptoms you are having. So if you can take a test tommorrow morning. I would also like you to go to see a doctor, I think that all this starting and stopping might have made your hormones wonky! So lets see first if you ARE pregnant and then we will talk OK? Good luck and health1
I was concerned about the wacky hormones as well. but I was takin then for almost 2 months again. should have straightened them out. my hormones have always been off and I feel mayb they were on track for but a moment to conceive. I am having bad migrains now and real sever dizziness. goin in tomorrow if I can get into docs. I also quit takin my antidepressent/antianziety when I stopped the pills. Bottle said DO NOT TAKE IF U R PREGNANT!. just in case...I will keep in touch and let u know how thngs r
ok... here it goes.
i am a 18 year old female and on sunday september 20th i had unprotected sex. i believe my hymen was broken as there was a light pink tinge of blood when i wiped after urinating, for a day or two. on the second day or so of that, i had a "burst" of blood in my urine - it wasn't like period blood, it just looked like.. blood. i ended my period about 2 days i think before having sex, and i'm due for it again around the 15th or so.. but today (the 30th) i went to the bathroom and there was a little bit of brown discharge when i wiped, and in my underwear, it looked like dried blood.. there was only a little bit and it wasn't the same color my period blood usually is.. and of course, it's like 2 weeks before i'm supposed to get my period. the guy didn't cum in me but he was pretty aroused so the chances of pre cum scare me.. but we were drinking earlier that night, and he went to the bathroom at least 2 times. i'm a pretty lazy person (lol) and usually sleep late, but lately i just feel like i can NOT get out of bed.. i feel like i could sleep for weeks.. and i feel like i've been eating more as well? i've noticed a little bit of achy pain feeling in my stomach, but i never felt "100%" most of the time before this all happened.. it could just be my paranoia that i'm so in tune with it now.
going to get a hpt isn't really an option for me because i live in a ridiculously small town with only one store. plus, i have no money. my only option would be to go to my doctor, which means i would have to tell my mother, as she would have to drive me. if my period doesn't arrive when it should i'll have no choice but to go to the doctor i guess...
i'm so friggen scared i'm pregnant. are these typical symptoms? does it sound like i am? any replies are appreciated!

Hello, I joined this forum because I, myself, am having the same kind of problem with you guys. I'm 18 years old and confused. I wanna share my problem hoping that anyone will help me with this.. Here it goes: I had sex with my boyfriend 2 days after my last day of menstruation. If I wasn't mistaken, right after 2 or 3 days (not sure) I felt a little cramping in my abdomen and from then on, I've been always bloated. Until now, the bloat doesn't go away. In the course of 3 weeks now, I feel lower backaches, DIZZINESS especially right after I wake up, nausea (I'm so confused if this is just psychological - the one they call pseudocyesis - Because once, I already was diagnosed of having it which was brought about by being very afraid of getting pregnant), I also develop pimples (I really don't know but I actually do have acne ever since then, I just don't know if this is triggered by hormone imbalance because of upcoming period or am I conceiving? help.. How would I be able to know?), and lastly, VERY FREQUENT URINATION. I'm so much worried because right now, I'm in TOTAL unenlightenment of the things that happen. Can anyone help me to clear this up? Later, I plan to use pregnancy test but is it too soon because I am expecting my period more or less one week from now. I am unsure of the exact date but I feel that it would be more than 1 week from now.. probably on the 10th of October onwards... help... What do those symptoms mean? %-) :'(
wait, I forgot to say that it was unprotected. But I am so sure that he didn't cum in me but he withdrew it. We always relied on withdrawal, by the way, is it reliable? My boyfriend assures to me that he doesn't ejaculate inside and I know that, I believe in him because he is not that kind of guy who lies at me. We have a very strong trust in each other. But this idea of PRE-EJACULATION constantly lingers in my mind. But he swears he really didn't do it because it was in front of me and was seen by my two eyes that he ejaculated outside. We've been having sex for many times and we always relied on withdrawal. Now, what are these symptoms that I feel? And oh, when he ejaculated that time, he wiped the semen in his penis with a towel and after some minutes, maybe 15 mins or more, we had sex again. Is it possible that there were still some sperm left in his penis eventhough he already wiped it? And then it went on as we were having sex?
me again... so the "little bit of blood" that i was worried about last night actually turned into my fullblown period this morning.. which you think would be good, except for the fact that i just ended my last period on approx september 17th?? that's only like 14 days, and only 10 (well this is the 11th day, oct 1st) since i had unprotected sex.. i have been stressing about this a LOT so could that be the issue? i've also heard that when you're near other women who are on their rag, it can make yours come sooner because your body "smells it"... which sometimes seems to be the case (i live with my mom & sis) because we all seem to get it around the same time. but was scares me is i had my last one like 2 weeks ago, which isn't normal for me.. i've never really kept track but i suspect there's probably 26-28 days in between my cycles..
again, any replies are appreciated! even with getting my "period" i'm still sooo scared of the risk of pregnancy :(

not really i did take another prego test an it came up negative, but i still have the craving for chocolate an what not an i had some brown spotting on the 26th an the day before that i stayed the night at my guys house an had protected sex and around 5am or so i felt really sick and started throwing up which that has happend twice that month i don't know why but it did and then the next day like i said i had brown spotting. i have a doc. apt on the 27th of this month but i still am moody and having cravings i'm not understanding.
My boyfriend and I aren't seriously ttc, but we're no long using protection because we like the idea of children. My last period was normal, it was on the 13th of September ending on the 18th, after that we had sex pretty much every night up until the 29th when work started getting busy and I was extremely tired. I've been slightly nauseous, and I've been having some serious cramps, it started out on the right side but now it's very low in the middle. I'm extremely bloated and I have been for about 3 or 4 days now. My lower back on the right side has been very very achy. My thighs have been cramping too. I think I had some VERY light pink spotting last night. My breasts have been sore on the sides and my nipples are extremely sensitive, starting early yesterday. Since about the 27th I've been getting really terrible headaches, and a few days after I started napping, which I never do despite how tired I am. I've been having some extremely vivid dreams. No cm, but my cervix (which I tend to track) is high, soft and moist. I have a slightly elevated body temp. I'm hoping this could be pregnancy, but not too crazy about it. We've only stopped using protection in august, I didn't expect it this soon, but it would be nice. Has anyone else experienced these symptoms this early? I mean I'm only about 7 dpo. I'd love to know of experiences like this with a BFP!
Thanks :-D
