very light pink discharge

I am supposed to start my period this coming weekend and this past Saturday I had some very light pink discharge.  No pain or anything to make me thik it would be a bladder infection or a UTI.  I also have had extremely sore breasts.  The nipple doesn't hurt but right under it hurts really bad.  My face is breaking out which is never a problem for me.  I have had heavy discharge (clear, mucus-like) for the past 4 days.  Does this sound like anything I should be concerned about or does it just look like I might be going to have a terrible period.  My horomones are so wacky.  I feel like crying all the time over stupid stuff.

Hello! YOu might be pregnant. Have you tested? You could also have a urineary track infection. Having your face break out could be a symptom of pg.

It is too early to take a test.  As far as the UTI, I have no pain with it like I have had in the past.  I guess I will just have to play the waiting game in which I am terrible at.  :)

well i dont know if you are ttc but it is possible to be implantation bleeding.  I had gotten it about a week before i was supposed to get my period.  more like pink cm.  well i got the bfp instead of af!!!!  not sure, but that may be it.

We just started TTC so I really feel like maybe it is too quick, but I did think about implantation bleeding.  When I looked it up most of what I found described that as being brownish red and almost like a light period.  This was a small ammount and light pink.  I have been very much on emotional extremes so if I am not pg I know that my horomones are riding a roller coaster anyway.  what do your other accronyms mean?  I am new to this...

I think you both should take a home pregnancy test.  the light pink spotting could be implantation blood which apparently is common for a lot of women.  Especialy you candyheart you sound pregnant.

I am 5 days late today and my hubby and I have been trying to conceive. I have had light cramping in my lower abdomen and for the last several weeks have had very sore nipples but that has gone away. Discharge has been clear and no signs of my period. This morning I had a very very light pink, watery discharge. At 3 days late I also took a HPT and it was a BFN. I was so upset and had lost hope of being prgnant. Now that my period still hasn't come I am wondering if this was a sign this morning that I could still in fact be pregant? I thought I'd wait til Sunday and test again? Any similar experiences?
Thanks.

Hope you have found out if you were preg or not. my hubby and I have been trying as well. My cycle is always every 28days latehowever it is going on 3 days late and the test I took this morning says negative. Now I came home and I have very light pink spotting, not even enough to wear a pad. I am strarting to think that it might be implantation bleeding. (or I guess hoping it is) since that would make a week since our last intercoures. Anyways glad to see someone else is in the same boat.

Obviously you are not ready to be intimate with someone: 1) you are 16, 2) your user name is sexual in nature and 3) you are not ready to have a child. That being said, you wait 5-7 days to take another test... talk to the school counselor at your school if you are.  They have resources that can help you. If you are, even though it is not great circumstances, a child is a precious gift from God and you could always give it up for adoption to give a better life than what you could provide

I have been having some weird symptoms for the last 7 weeks and I have no idea what is going on.  I have taken 5 hpt and 1 urine pregnancy test at the doctors and all came out negative so I really dont know what to think now.  My last AF ended August 18, on August 31 I started spotting (exactly 10 days after I started having intercourse again with my boyfriend.  At that time we had broken up a week or so before and I was very depressed and continuously forgetting to eat, sleep, and take my bcp) I got sharp cramping pains and the spotting last 15 days straight!  It went straight through the time I should have gotten my next period so I dont know if it came or not. It started brown, turned light pink and was only heavy enough for me to wear one pad a day, my AF usually has me change my pad every couple of hours its so heavy.  My boyfriend swears that I am moodier now, some days I want to eat nothing and other days all I want to do is eat, but only certain foods. Alot of stuff I used to love, like chocolate, I cant stand, and lately ive been craving sugary non caffeine drinks all the time.  When I go to the bathroom its dark yellow and smells really strong (just tested for a bladder infection a few days ago and im clean, also tested for stds and cancer and im clean- my doctors are sure its everything but pregnancy) Im always tired no matter how much I sleep, my face has been breaking out, im nautious alot but no vomitting and for awhile I was getting 2-4 bowel movements a day and very gassy, the last 2 days I have been uncomfortably constipated.  My temperature is also 1-2 degrees higher than normal every day.  At first I thought it was side effects from missing the bcp's a few times but would that last nonstop for 7 weeks?  And after 6 pregnancy tests I couldnt be pregnant could I?  Im 22, never had a kid before and dont know what to think.  I wouldnt mind having a child, though I would prefer to get married first andI know this is the guy I want to marry, but right now I just want to know whats wrong with me.  What do you all think?  Please help if you can.

I can't believe you can EVEN mention God in your message. God does not discriminate. She may be 16 big deal. I got pregnant at 17 and I am 18 now with a 3 month old and we are happier than ever. And my love is like woah is a song, the word LOVE doesn't have to be sexual dumbass. ANYways To-My love is like woah- You're young, peirod's sometime enjoy messing with our minds lol. if your pregnancy test is still neg. and you are feel no pain with this bleeding then you shouldn't worry about it. Wait a couple weeks and if it is still doing the same thing then try another test, if it is still neg. contact a doc.  Oh and TO-everyone- I've been having extremely light pink bleeding, it is super weird, b/c i had just found out my sister is doing the same thing! I'm on birth contol and i've had sex likeee a week ago. I don't get what it could be. anyone know?!?
