Am I Pregnant or Is My Period Coming?

I think i have been spotting. At first, i thought it was that i had just started with my period again, but i was wrong because it looked more like a pinkish color that would only stain a little bit. This got me worried because the previous month, on October 26th, I was having sexual intercourse with my boyfriend and the condom broke. I haven't gotten my period since. On October 31st, Halloween, I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. I am thinking about taking a pregnancy test again to make sure, because i am not sure if the spotting just means my period is finally coming, or if it means that I am pregnant. I have heard of the Implantation Bleeding, but this is my second day of spotting. I heard that the implantation bleeding only lasts for about a day or two, or maybe even less. So this makes me doubt a little because I think it's going to be continuing tomorrow. I just need to know whether or not there is a possibility that i may be pregnant or if the chances are gone and i am safe from that issue. I am really worried and i need some reassurance. So what do you think?

hi. i have a few questions. i wanted to find out if i was pregnent or not because i had sexual activity (with no condom) in mid August and got my period a couple days later on the 16th. Then after i had many sexual activitys with my boyfriend again with no condom and my period is late. So i took two pregency test one about a week ago and another a couple days ago and they both said negative. Is it still possible that i could be pregnent even if i had my period on the 16th with sexual activity after that?  I've been breaking out a little so I'm thinking its my period but no period and its about one or two weeks late!! Then it feels like im on my period but I'm not. Do you think i could still be pregnent?

I know exactly what you are going through..my fiance and I are trying to have a baby and he has ejaculated in me 5 times so far since we have been trying..i was spotting before time for my period, which I have NEVER done, I am tired, moody, hungry, urinating frequently, and all that stuff...the only symptom i don't have is morning sickness..however, I've taken two pregnancy tests and both were negative..but i took them before i expected my period..then last night, i started bleeding a little heavier..I'm not sure if it's my period or if it's implantation bleeding..I'm thinking the best thing to do is go to the doctor, but i have no insurance, so i have to wait and work that out..I'm on alot of medications for asthma, anxiety, acid reflux, etc and i'm worried because i don't even know if i can safely take my meds so i haven't been taking them..I'm hoping that I'm pregnant, but I'm terrified that I'm not..I want a baby so badly, and so does my fiance..I'm so confused...and my fiance has been saying the whole time that he knows that I'm pregnant, but I'm just not sure..I'll try to update this after I go to the Dr...this article has made me feel better and has helped me greatly in some small but important decisions....thank you!! and best of luck!!

i finally got my period! i'm still going to take the test tho, i just really don't know when. i just really need to see it come out negative before i get too happy and finally relieved. It is a pain every single month wondering whether i'm pregnant or not, but this was the only time i got really scared by it because of the whole condom issue. A lot of my friends are saying that i'm not pregnant because they just really don't think so, and i doubt it too. But, i don't want to take any risks, so i'm going to take the test. After i see what it says, i'm not going to honestly try not to have sex again until i'm married. It's too much stress for me.

Not to scare you, but I got pregnant with this baby now after only bding once.  I had a m/c and had one af.  I was going to wait another cycle before trying again, but figured it was so late in the cycle it was not too probable.  Of course I knew it was a possibility and was thrilled when it came back positive, a little shocked, but so happy.  There's always a chance, but it does take awhile to get the hormones out of your system, mine were gone in just under 4 weeks and I was 11 weeks along, but everyone is different.  I agree with the others, take a test, and call your Dr. if it is positive to go in and see if it's new or from the old pregnancy.  I would also get on the pill or something else ASAP, it's got to be a little nerve wracking to have 2 scares back to back.  Take care.
