can i be pregnant?

[marieny08]

Hi, i know i wont find out if im actually pregnant until i pee on that stick but...i was wondering if anyone can at least help relieve this "can i be or cant i be?" out my mind!..lol..soo my last period was on october10th...i had unprotected sex with my hubby on the 21st, then on the 3rd of november i got up in the middle of the night with constipation cramps, and after i peed i saw on my toilet paper a clear thick discharge with brown specs in it, my second wipe was a tiny faint pink dot..then....nothing...still nothing.... around that time, i got a bad headache, i was getting up to pee alot (only at night) and was constipated... and the cramps was strong....two days later (5th) the strong cramps were gone,now i only have mild cramps , much less then my usual sharp ones before my period but its only really on my left lower side.I took a test on the night of the 5th and it came out negitive.my periods are 30 days apart so im suppose to start on the 9th.i just experienced some stringy white dishcharge with absolutley no smell at all!... my boobs are NOT so tender,soo im a little confused.I have NEVER had "spotting" a week before my period. but im still constipated...i havent went for two days..  :-( ... ouch!..lol..furthermore, i still feel crampy like my period will rain any minute!!! please help..just advice or any experiences will do alot for me..thank you for reading..and sorry for the detailed discriptions...

well im supposed to get my period around the 16th! So i tested three days back and was negative: i just tested bc i wanted to dye my hair black in case i got preggo...dont wannahave these black roots and then all the long blonde hair! ughhh lol!
But anyways...If i dont get it by the 17th then thats when ima test again! I really want a baby again, but dont wanna be al sad if i find out it didnt happen again this month!
So i would advice you to test at least a day after your missed pd..if it doesnt come that is...I think it will be most certain to give you a better answer:)
Good luck everyone! Keep us posted :)

good luck girl!... have you missed a period yet?..im confused.....lol... when are  you taking a test??

for me...today makes two days till my period is suppose to come, but i still only have mild cramps...i finally went to the restroom!!!... as shown above on my first post, i was constipated for almost 3 days and woke up this morning and finally went...

**before when i wrote my original post i was having cramps on my lower left side only , now im having just regular cramps in the vagina area, (like period is coming)...but its not sooo crampy like usual,even my hubby just told me im not being as bitchy as usual..lol... but still i can still start...i want to take a test now but hes convincing me to wait two more days..ugh..this wait can kill somone..!...

Just went to the bathroom and Af is in full force today...  There was my brief moments yesterday where I was like man what if I really am pregnant.. oh to dream..   On the bright side, two normal cycles after a d&c (obv. the spotting was a bit of a weird start but at least it arrived on time), what a relief!  Happy TTC to me.

[PetiteWonder]

Good Luck CID.. hopefully you are..

My turned into a light bleed last night but it was still in consistent but it convinced enough to not test this morning...  But then this morning it was more spotting again but I bit more than the last two days.. I plan to watch it all day see if picks back up..

Either way hopefully November will be my month but it will be my first month TTC since my miscarriage so I probably wont get that lucky.

OMG im so happy that i found a post like yours and many of these responses you got! My pd has been sooo weird since i left the pill in May, that the only way i would see it is if I get a shot on my butt then a feww days later it would come. So i got my shot on October 8 around there n got my pd. on Oct 16 (well started spotting but my GYN says to count that as a pd towards my ovulation days!:( I spotted from November 2 til today and i am wondering if i might b preggo or just my body acting all weird:/ I have a 6  year old and I had implantation spotting i think bc when i was spotting b4 my pd thats when i got blood tested in DOM. REP and found out i was...so i am sort of hoping i am!! Good luck to all the ladies!!

Its not really laot of urine when i go.. sometimes its more than others but I mean its never a long pee..

If this was implantation bleeding or something like that, how long after would one expect to have enough HCG to show on FRER?

I am sure I am not pregnant and just my body acting weird making me think crazy now... It could just be my periods are weird from my miscarriage but my last one was so normal and by day 2, i definately had a regular bleed.. not off and on brown, light red, spotting so who knows

[marieny08]

good luck dear!..

but when you go to pee, is alot coming out?? , i noticed im peeing more but its not alot, i feel i have to really really go and then ......just a tinkle....its kinda funny, but i know for a fact ..this peeing more often is def. not what i used to have before any of my past periods!!!!

[PetiteWonder]

Its pretty light.  I know I have read alot of people who had whatthey thought was a light Af then a week later found out they were pregnant..  I am wearing a panty liner only.  It varies from a browish red, to light red, to light brown.   It cant count as more than spotting at this point..  I wore a panty liner for approx 5-6 hours before changing it and it had about a quarter size spot on it...  I am not having any symptosm really but last time i was pregnant, I didnt have symptoms until a week after my postive test which was 1-2 weeks after am issed period so.. By symptoms i mean sore breasts and naussea. I did have some symptoms that I didnt think anything about

Only thing (thta i didnt pick up on last time until after i found out i was  pregnant but had been experiencing for two weeks before realized I might be pregnant) is I have been having sleep disturbances all week and weird dreams again.  

I wasnt trying to conceive and used protection while having sex, which is the only reason that pregnancy is not likely in my case... but u never know..  We did have sex without a condom again right after my husband had ejaculated the first time (with a condom the first time) right around ovulation ... low chance i know but that was a bit more risky.

I am crazy with pregnancy tests though its bad.  I did test the day before my period was due and it was negative .. it was a FRER but I didnt use first morning urine though I did hold it for a couple hours before...  The control like was paper thin though, which i didnt know if that was normal as in the picture showed thicker lines?  I will test again if it doesnt actually turn into real bleeding in a day or two.

I know i am probably not pregnant but its a weird period so who knows.. stranger things have happened...  I have had a real big appetite since last Sunday, had a couple days where i couldnt resist chocolate, and find im urinating every 30 mins or so at work (but i have been drinking alot of water and sometimes i think i go to the bathroom just to move around)...  I just feel like a crazy person thinking too much into anything..

yes, I tested 3 days before I got a positive.  I just did it on a whim & didn't use fmu.  it was negative.  

basically, I felt it for about a week before af was due.  it just felt like Af, but nothing.  Usually, I only felt like that about a day or two before af was schedulled, not a week.

yes, keep in mind that symptoms are just symptoms.  Pregnancy symptoms can feel exactly like peroid & ovulation symptoms.  good luck!

If your testing that early, you need to be using first morning urine for accurate results. Also, you said you were watching every symptom. Many everyday things can be related to pregnancy, and could be looked into too much. Symptoms don't actual mean a pregnancy, so it's best to not obsess over them. Good luck. I hope you get the answer you're looking for.

Three years ago i started to spot a light red on the day i was due to my period, i took a test that day , and it came out positive, how light is yours???

I know i was pg before so ppl are prob wondering y im am asking these questions, but i dont recall feeling all this before...but i didnt think i could be at that time, and this time im watching ever symptom!...drivving my husband up the walls!..lol

keep us updated if you are or not..as i will let you know on the 10th if i came out pg.. :-)

[marieny08]

lol its ok, i need to be screamed at, cause im going insane..lol.......

did you take the test early and got a negitive before your positive?,
I took mine on the night of the 5th...and negitive :-"(

and usually my cramps are really to an extreme before my period, and now they just cramp a lil on my right bottom, and it kind of hurts in the vagina..like i had sex dry...lol...but i also feel this before my period...(the vagina part).....did you feel this also??

wow congrats on ur pregnancy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (now im shouting haha)

thanks fore the advice!

[vacuumprincess]

THAT IS THE WAY i FELT BEFORE IT WAS CONFIRMED TOO.  (WITH EACH PREGNANCY).  OOPS   sorry.  I didn't realize I was shouting at you....

anyway, I kept running to the batfroom to see if it was AF early.  it FELT just like af....  Crampy & wetness.  My breasts still don't hurt much & I'm about 9 wks pregnant.  I didn't get a positive result until the day af was due, but sometimes I am a few days later than 28 days.  The result was positive, but very light (with first morning urine)  Each day after it got darker (I tested 3 days in a row)

I was constipated at first too.  drink juice.  Plum smart has extra fiber & it tastes good too.

According to an ovulation calculator (which is accurate) but you would have expected to Ovulate around Oct 24 (give or take a couple days).  So if you had sex onthe 21st, it is highly plausible that you could be pregnant.

Symptoms can be weird.. I had more discharge then usual (thicker too) after ovulating until 2 days before my period..  I also had mild cramps but only on my right side...  I was also constipated until I started my cycle (that had never happen to me before so it was weird - Mon, Tues, Wed (no bm), thurs (really small hard to pass one), firday had some spotting and cleared out my system)... Of course my cycle has been going for 2 days now and I am still only spotting light pink (which isnt normal).  I might test if it doesnt get heavier in aday or two.

The point is based on your dates, it is possible that you would have conceived at that time.. and its hard to judge symptoms.
