Could I be pregnant?

[saysay88]

I am not to sure I think I might be pregnant.
I havent done a test yet, but I am about 7 days late, I have cramping like I am going to get my period and the cramping seems to get worse at night.
I also have a yellowish discharge.
my breast seem to be getting harder but are not sore.
I dont have morning sickness or cravings.
So im very confussed to as I might be pregnant or not.
Can someon help?

If you are having a discharge & you are 7 days late I am betting you are pregnant. Just take a test to make sure! :)

I don't think she was trying to be rude but when u said you had yellow discharge it leads the reader to think that is not normal. And honestly I have never heard of normal vaginal discharge being yellow. But that's just from my personal experience. I am a HUGE women's health advocate so that where my concern arose. But I don't think joceey was intentionally trying to come across rude

I will deff let u know mfh13.

Joceey, I have had the yellowish more clear discharge everytime right before my period and have been to the doctors about it before and there isnt anything wrong I was asking because it just seems to be alittle more then when I usually get it..

Never said anyone was a doctor. but this is what this site it about to ask and share questions. So I did.. No reason to get rude on me. Thanks for ur input tho.

well a test should clarify if youre pregnant or not
we're not doctors and only being 7 days late does not clarify that you might be pregnant
and yellow discharge most def sounds like an infection
stress, overthinking, infections and so many other reasons can make your period to delay

Let us know what the test said! Good luck :)

Yes definately get checked! If you have an infection long enough and don't treat it, it can damage your chances of getting pregnant in the future and can cause miscarriage if you have it while pregnant. But, if the tests come back negative then dont think something is wrong and the tests were faulty because I had the same thing and was perfectly healthy!

;) good luck I hope u get the outcome u are wanting

[saysay88]

Thank you all for ur comments. I will deff take a test.

^ the increase in amount may be from pregnancy but if it is yellow while it is liquid it is highly likely due to infections. Infection can be caused by the changing pH caused by pregnancy. Just please do not neglect your well woman check. It is imperative that we women take care of our bodies especially if u are pregnant an infection can be detrimental to your pregnancy. I hate to sound like the voice of doom but my sister had to have a hysterectomy due to cancer which stemmed from not taking care when she contracted a VD

[MFH13]

Oh and throughout my cycle (before I was pregnant) I would have off white discharge that kind of looked a very light green...its gross I know lol but my OB would test me at every appointment and I have no infections or anything!

[MFH13]

Actually I think I've heard that too. This is TMI so sorry in advance lol....but when your pregnant you have increased discharge (A LOT)  so if your having more than normal that could definately be a sign, even though its usually white I'm sure it can vary in color because everyone's body is different. Do a test!!

[Ashdub07]

Yellow discharge sounds like an infection which can result in delayed period and if left untreated, infertility. You need to get a pelvic exam ASAP!

[saysay88]

its not really yellow its more clear its just has like a hint of yellow more clear then anything. I have heard that pregnant women have had it before and its normal as long as it doesnt have a smell or severe cramps..

[MFH13]

For me, I didn't even think about the possibility of being pregnant because I kept getting cramps like I was going to start any day! And I still get them a lot so cramping does NOT necessarily mean you will get our period! And, yellow discharge doesn't sound very healthy lol have you gotten checked to make sure you don't have any infections because those can delay your period too
