Could I Be?

Hi everyone! My husband and I have been TTC for two months now. I've been having a lot of early symptoms but I am kind of confused! This past week I have been crazy tired, my breasts have been swollen and very tender, I've been bloated, been nauseous, turned down my favorite foods because they smelled or tasted awful and I've recently had mild spotting and cramping in the beginning of the third week. I am now 6 days before my period and I believe I have started my period :( You can typically set your calendar to ny period, it has never cone early. The cramps aren't quite as bad as normal and its a little darker. I do have cysts on my ovaries, and tried to get more info from my doctor earlier this week about it but the only thing she told me is that Tricare doesn't do fertility checks until you've been trying for a year so keep trying! Can any of you wonderful people help me out?

Hey guys. Well, the bleeding lasted about a day and a half. It wasn't really heavy, but it wasn't light either. My period was due yesterday, but didn't come. After the bleeding ended last week the symptoms I was having started to subside. The swelling and soreness in my breasts went down but I have still been very fatigued and using the bathroom more. I took a test on Sunday and it was negative. I'm going to take another test Saturday to see what it says. I was hoping I was pregnant, but now I'm not sure!

It is certainly possible, although I will tell you that it's a bit early for those types of symptoms.  However, anything is possible.  Good luck with your pregnancy test, I sure hope its positive.

Thanks guys! I'm praying I'm pregnant :) The bleeding seems to be slowing down already and it just started this morning. I took a test and it came back negative, but I would only be at 3 weeks this week so its a little to early to tell. I'm going to take another on Monday and pray for the best!!

you most def could still be pregnant, I would keep an eye on this bleeding and if its shorter/lighter or different in any other way from your normal period, then as I said yes you still could be, although I wouldnt do a test until the day your period is due or a few days later, depending on how this bleed goes
