Ok. I am 2 and a half weeks late for my period. And i am getting ALL of the symptoms of being pregnant ( nausea, vomiting, cramps, breast tenderness, feel fatter etc.) . I took 5 urin tests and they all said negative, and 1 had a light positive. I took 2 blood tests ( they were quantitative tests only ) and they too said negative.
This morning i woke up and went to the bathroom and when i whiped myself i noticed some brown spotting! Is that another side effect of being pregnant? Or could i be getting my period? ( i've never got brown spotting before my period, only after ). Some1 please give me your opinion on this. Im going insain!! ↓

lost - some women have periods during preg. i'm now about 3 weeks late - had spotting yesterday but just in the morning.. now nothing. got to wait till next week to have an other test done... i know spotting can be bad if you ARE pregnant and you need to see a doctor. i'm off work now coz i puke a lot - which i did when i was pregnant before... + have all the other signs... but the tests are neg. I'm hoping to be preg, but don't know anything for sure - well... Lost - don't give up :) if it's your period only, then you can try again :) Hope it goes well for you. ↑

Hey Lost , have you found out anything yet? - I'm 3 weeks late today and had very tiny amount of brown spotting on my 17th day late - all HPT are neg - I am very anxious to know about you . ↑
Name: k | Date: Nov 26th, 2004 10:39 AM
Well I was suppose to get my period today. So that makes 2 periods that I have missed. Last weekend I was still getting neg. hpts I don't even know if I should try to take another one. There must be something else wrong but my stupid doctor wont see me. ↑
Name: Aly | Date: Nov 26th, 2004 12:18 PM
Hi K, I know what you mean - I have been seen by my Dr and she say's I'm not pregnant but won't even entertain the idea that there is anything else wrong with me - If i'm not pregnant then why am I missing period - I'm never late - and well just feel pregnant - hang in there, you are not alone on this. ↑
Name: Lost | Date: Nov 26th, 2004 12:47 PM
Hey every1. Well it turns out that i was pregnant the WHOLE time. But, unfortunatley i found out i finally was because i had a miscarrage. From being " overly expossed to stress ". :(. Good luck to every1. ↑
Name: Lost | Date: Nov 26th, 2004 12:50 PM
HEY. WELL I FOUND OUT EVERYTHING. I WAS PREGNANT, BUT I FOUND OUT A BAD WAY... LAST NIGHT I HAD VERY BAD CRAMPS AND I WAS BLEEDING VERY BAD... TURNS OUT I HAD A MISSCARAGE AND I WAS PREGNANT THE WHOLE TIME!!!!! THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE " OVERALLY EXPOSSED TO STRESS ". AND WHEN I TOLD MY BOYFRIEND HE DIDNT EVEN CARE!! I KNOW IT WAS BECAUSE OF HIM, HE BROKE UP WITH ME ON FRIDAY AND I MISCARRIED MONDAY AND IM STILL HAVING THE BAD PAIN NOW. I just wanted to tell all of you to stay stress freee... even if u dont get a positive test result, because u may be pregnant, just like i was. So now im trying to recover. I want my baby back, but i know i cant have it, so im looking for a new man to help me make a new baby, and have it grow up in a loving relationship that is stress free. Good luck everyone. ↑

I'm experiencing brown spotting also at this time and frequent too. My stomach is also cramping, but my breast aren't tender and I don't feel nauseous. However, you could be pregnant or you could be spotting if you had sex as soon as your mentrual went away(not giving your vagina enough time to clean out) ↑

Hoping someone can help me? We have been ttc for 4months. Previously I had been on the pill for at least 5 years. Although when comming off I had regular periods since well actually they have been heavier. But what is concerning me is that I was due to have my monthly on this monday it didn't come so tue morning I took a test and it was a veeery faint - tuesday and today wed, I have had some brownish color when I wipe. Not red as if I was bleeding, and not enough to even use a panty liner. and not every time I go to the bathroom. Could I indeed be pregnant? How long should I wait to test again? I'm very affraid of a - result. Help anyone. ↑

I began spotting almost 2 weeks before my period was due and I had 1 day of fairly constant bleeding (although it was reddish pink) then it stopped and I have now been spotting brownish for a few days and just began cramping today... I am not late yet. Is it all in my mind or is this normal? ↑

Hi All,
Great to hear your experiences. I'd be very greatful if someone could offer me some advise?
My husband and I are trying for a baby. The first day of my last period was the 22nd Nov. We have been using ovulation tests and I ovulated on the 6th Dec. My period would have been due 21st Dec (tomorrow). (It is normally very heavy and regular).
On Sat 18th Dec I noticed very light brownish/clear (spotting?) that has continued and I am still experiencing today. I only notice it when I wipe after using the toilet and it hasn't developed into a normal period..
Is there any chance that I could be pregnant? I have taken several tests , but they have been negative - but then it may be too early to show up?
Any advise would be greatfully appreciated! Good luck to everyone xxx ↑

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 21st, 2004 2:37 AM
OK This is my first time here. Well I'm realy confused.....My last pms was the 6th of Nov. I have had pregnancy symptoms like nausea, tender brests, cramps, back ache and so on. I have took a few tests and all showed neg until I took one on the 19th that one came up slightly pos I barely could see it. So considering I might be preg. I went to the health department to get a test on the 20th that one came up neg. By the time I got home I was spotting brown blood....could my period be starting or can this be a normal in preg or can I be having a misscarriage. I am totaly confused and scared. I have 5 children and my youngest past away this past June from SIDS I want to have another baby but, I don't want another loss...Anyone have any symptons like this. Thanks for listening. ↑
Name: Jen | Date: Dec 21st, 2004 7:51 AM
To J. By missing a pills from your packet it does cause very strange things. I would not think you are pregnant. When ever i had missed some pills sometimes i would bleed for two weeks straight or not at all. It is very weird. but definatly lots of cramps ↑

I was 4 days late for my period, so I took a home pregnancy test (Oct. 29)...it was negative. The following dayI had one day of spotting. I awaited my next period, around Thanksgiving, but it never came. My boobs started popping out of my bras and I was feeling cramps like I was about to start. I took another home pregnancy test on Dec. 3. It was positive, so I took 3 more and they were all positive. I am confused...am I seven weeks pregnant or eleven? The doctor won't see me until Jan. 4 and is considering my one day of spotting on Oct. 30 to be my period! What's going on??? ↑
