PREGNANT? VERY CONFUSED!!!

[confused010110]

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant since September 2009. We werent having any luck....and last month we thought maybe we were as I didn't have my period, but all the hpt we took were negative. I have been talking to my friend as she just had her baby 4 months ago for some advice, and she told me that even though you have a neg hpt doesnt mean anything because everybody is different. So all throughout feb and march I have been very nauseated, along with having my boobs be very tender to the point where i couldnt touch them, being gassy, and going pee an awful lot, and also sleeping more than usual. I usually get my period on the 15th of every month, and my last period was in january 2010, and didnt have one all through feb, and now in march....on the 19 i had some spotting, which i heard was normal, so really didnt think anything of it, but to be on the safe side i put a regular tampon in that night, and when i woke up from about 10 hrs of sleep i was a little crampy, and it was full, but then throughout the day it was pretty light, not enough to use a tampon for, but last night, i started to feel crampy again and so i put another regular tampon in, when i woke up this morning from 10 hrs of sleep, it was full again, but now it isnt as bad so far throughout the day. I have talked to my friend and she says that i could still be pregnant and that i should keep my appointment with my dr as i had made one for next week before all of this happened. I thought for sure i was pregnant before the bleeding happened, me and my husband just had that good feeling that i was, but now im not so sure. I am kinda in the depressed stage where i have doubts now, even though i still have that feeling. There are so many people in my life that are pregnant or have just gave birth, and its like when i see their babies, i just get that feeling. I am afraid to go to the dr as i dont want to get disappointed :( i would please love some advice on if this has ever happened to anyone and they were pregnant and if i should even go to the dr?? please help and all information is greatly appreciated!! thank you!

BFP- Big Fat Positive and TTC- Trying To Conceive. I had no idea either when I first started on this site. LOL But welcome!

[confused010110]

sorry, but what does bfp and ttc stand for? im not very good with abbrev. :) lol - and no we havent been tested yet, we have been trying since Sept. and i have read on most websites that you shouldnt start worrying or getting tested for that until about a year of trying, but i will find out what the doc says when i go wed :)

I hope you get your BFP, we've both been ttc for the same length of time so i know how you feel.  Have you or your partner been tested for fertility problems?

thank you, i think i am going to keep my dr appt :) the bleeding has stopped too, so it wasnt even a total of 48 hours... which is very very short for me (im usually 7-8 days), and i have never ever been late before, or this light!, so something is up with my body! hopefully its good and not bad :) thanks again

I agree with nickie, the only way to find out what is going on is to see a doctor.

Just so you know though, lots of things can cause you to have pregnancy-like symptoms and even miss a period (infection, hormonal imbalances for example).  Most women test positive for pregnancy 2 weeks after conception and bleeding during pregnancy is NOT normal - especially anything heavier than light spotting.

I would say the only way that you are going to know is to go see a doctor and have a blood test done. There is the possibility that you didn't and haven't ovulated or that you are pregnant. Either way the only way you are going to know is to have a blood test... Best of luck to you =) Let us know how it works out for you =)
