Could I be pregnant?

I am 18 years old, am usually irregular, but lately (the past 4 or 5 months), I have been on time. This month, i would get my period on the 17th and it is now the 19th, and no signs at all. I experienced brown/pink/red spotting for about 2 days and it was very light, and had this clear "mucus" in with it. I would wipe a second time and nothing. only once did i see 2 small red drops of blood with the clear "mucus". My fiance and I have unprotected sex alot. Sometimes several times a day. That was the first and only time in my life I have ever spotted. I have been getting extremely minor aches and pains throughout my body and my eating and drinking is a little off, and have had gas, but no breast tenderness or cramp-like pains at all. any help?

You know you should really take the test now and find out if you are pregnant so you can start taking all the proper vitamins like folic acid etc asap. If you take a test now it will definatley be the correct answer ie positive or negative since you are so far over due for AF. Put us all out of suspense i want to know if you are or not.

I just found out on friday that i am pregnant, and my partner and i have only been trying for just over a month, i have no idea how far gone i am but i have had basically the same symptoms as you have, although my nipples are still the same size but are very tender as are my breasts.
I think you could be pregnant, and i know exactly how you feel, i felt so dissapointed when i wanted a positive test but turned out negative, but now i dont have to worry, =).
I'm also 18 and my partner is 21.
I hope everything goes well for you Sammii.

I had all all of that sweet. I had puclear pains around the body, especially the back and legs. I had mucus aswell but no red drops.
My drinking and eating was also off, and sometimes even some gas that brought up sick.
And my test was still negetive because was suppose to come on 14th

Im definitely going back on the pill if i find out that Im not, but it seems that everyday has been the same so far, no period at all, not even a single drop since i spotted for those 2 days and the gas im getting is all day long off and on, but no tenderness yet, just tingly feelings in my nipples and still all the same with the tiny cramps but i havent really had many the past day or two. We decided to wait another week or so to test, but we are hoping that I am!

good luck, but re the condoms-two of my pregnancies were down to condoms splitting and the morning after pill/plan b failing. the coil's good.

Thank you all for our replies, they are good insight, but I want a baby. We talked this afternoon and he expressed his feelings about it and apparently he does want to have a baby, he had let his mind get away from him due to his fear of the "your children are 10 times worse than you" comments, and he was a terrible child as his mother says 24/7. We are financially set and prepared for a child, hes just scared because of that and the fact that Ive miscarried before, and i guess thats one of his biggest fears. And if im not pregnant, lots of CONDOMS are in our future! Thank you all so much!

For real. If you don't want to have a baby, then you need to be having unprotected sex. Get on the pill or something girl until you feel like you're more mature for a baby.

I am with the other ladies.. NOT smart to have unprotected sex if you dont want a baby..

yeah, i gotta go with spade on that one...what did you guys think was gonna happen? i've been caught out ON contraception three times so if you're not even using any and having unprotected sex a lot, it was obvious what was gonna happen eventually.

ok - I need to ask the obvious question:  if your fiance does not want you to be pregnant, why are you having unprotected intercourse several times a day?

There is a lot of debate on the use of milk to treat heartburn.  If it works for you, thats great since its a good source of calcium etc.  Sometimes, antacids just arent strong enough to combat heartburn.  Dietary modification might be useful.

he doesnt want me to be pregnant. but i kind of understand why. we are 18 and 20. but hes increasingly getting to like the idea of us having a baby.

And im curious, ive been having some terrible heartburn too, and no matter how many antacids i take, milk seems to do the trick...

Is your fiance scared because he wants you to be pregnant (and is worried you might not be) or because he doesnt want you to be pregnant?

The spotting could be "implantation bleeding" - a home pregnancy test can give an accurate result as early as 4 days after this.

My fiance is really scared and i dont blame him, but hes helping me keep track and so far, my period was deff due 2 days ago. as of right now, we are going to wait another week or so, but im still getting little pains in my pelvic area, and he noticed that im very wet lately and its more and more often.

You could very well be pregnant.  Take a test with first morning urine.  If it is negative, retest again in a week if your period hasnt started.
