I had my son 6 months ago, and breastfed/pumped for 4 months. Before getting pregnant, I was having a period every 28 days, after giving birth I have had 3, the last two being 28 days apart. Now I am awaiting my next period. It has been 49 days since the first day of my last one. I have been feeling like I am going to get it for the last 3 weeks, I have had cramping, lower back pain, been extemely tired, have had breast tenderness on and off, and have been on an emotional roller coaster, but nothing, not even spotting, which is how my periods normally start out. I have also had the strange red discoloration on my upper arms that was prominent during my pregnancy. I have taken two pregnancy tests (dollar tree), and they have come back negative. So I am thinking it is just funky hormones, but I am still a little bit concerned, so I am just wondering if other woman have had strong pregnancy symptoms after dicontinuing breast feeding and end up not being pregnant, or if I should get a different brand of pregnancy test. It is my first time using this test and I cannot find anywhere on the box what level of hCG it tests at. Mostly, I would like to know when my body will get back to normal!!
