Pregnant or Not

[Shellybear1970]

I'm posting because I'm a little nervous.  I'm 38 years old and had a tubal ligation with clamps 11 years ago.  I've always been fairly regular at 26 to 28 days.  The last AF I had was on October 11th. I spotted for a few days starting on October 21 but just very little.  

According to the DR office they indicated that I should have started on November 7th, which I didn't.  Now I'm nervous that I may be pregnant.  I realize the chances are small but they can happen.  

I have had heartburn, cramping yesterday feeling like I was actually having my AF, tired, annoying headaches, I've gained a little bit of weight without changing my eating habits, I was dizzy yesterday, and my .  My breast are not tender but I don't remember them being tender for my first two.   I took a urine test but it came back negative.  I do have a doctors appointment today to find out what's going on but I'm very nervous.

I just nervous passing the time until this afternoon.  I would gladly welcome another child.

I know how you are feeling. I am 48 and have had my tubes tied for 25yrs and am going through the same thing. Being that i am 48 everyone says..Your probably going through the change.. I maybe but i have had normal periods till this month. I was due on the 8th but no period just lower cramping,very tired,headaches,lightheaded,backache feeling weak which havent gone away.Even though the chances are so slim i am makes me wonder too.Took a cheap preg test yesterday was neg too.  I am going to the doctors next week and i know he will think i am crazy when i tell him i feel like i am pregnant.

Hi, Shelly and Welcome to our community!

Thank-you for sharing your story and I hope you find the answers your looking for very soon.  I would definately recommend a pregnancy blood test and if negative I would recommend hormone testing and a ultra sound.  Please let us know how things work out for you.  GOD BLESS!!!
