36, tubes tied, getting period, gaining weight

[Blackwolf]

My tubes have been tied for 7 years, i already have five kids, i am still getting my period although it is every 3 weeks instead of 4 as it was... I also have a cyst upon my ovary that acts up for a week every month before my period begins, I have never gained weight before so rapidly, unless i was pregnant, i have gained 12 pounds in the past 2 months, is it my age? My body changing? Or is it possible i could be pregnant? I am gaining the weight in my ab. area only, as if i am pergnat? It looks like i am 5 months pregnant.. is this possible? Or could it be something else wrong?

no, your not being mean at all, i appreciate your comment, thank you, i needed feed back on it, I have 5 kids, it concerned me, because 2 of the times i was PG i had my period the entire time... im sure it is just in my head, No , i do not wish to be PG, but if it happens, i guess it is meant to be.. I just have them tied...Are yours cut?  And besides i dont feel old yet LOL.... i guess my body os just changing fast, have to get back in the gym i guess, after i get my doctor to take a look...again, thank you

I'm not trying to be mean, but maybe you are gaining weight in other places and u just can't see it. I felt like my stomach was getting bigger too but I think it was all in my head. I had my tubes tied 5 years ago. Ur periods start acting up the older we get(not that ur old, still very young) so as long as you still have periods I wouldn't be concerned. Were ur tubes cut and burn? Do you want to be PG? I have 3 kids and would love to have one more but no chance. I made a decision to tie the tubes at an early age b/c I thought I didn't want anymore. ANyway, if u are concerned, call a doc or take a test. But if ur not late, then I think u have nothig to worry about. Hope I've helped!
