Hello ladies:
I'm new to this forum. I'm looking for knowledge and support. First of all, in the new year, I hope everyone here finds health and pregnancy or pregnancy options (adoption) in the pursuit of the desire and dream of having a baby.
Or, if your reason for being on this forum is not to have a baby, but to learn about babies, I hope you find your answers.

MY DILEMA: PLEASE HELP! COULD I BE PREGNANT?

I am 46 yrs. old. Last regular period Nov 10th (4-5 days). Had unprotected sex 3x between Nov 30 & Dec 6. Missed period around Dec 10th. Experienced light brown spotting (literally, 1 spot on 1 day) around Dec 17th. I took an early home pregnancy test then: negative results. Regular period came today, Dec 30. Could I be pregnant? This is an abnormal cycle to me. My period is regular, and predictable and occurs 1x month on the same day, or within a day or two late or early. Very regular, healthy flow. No problems, complications.

My uterine health bakground: had 2 uterine fibroid removals (laporoscopy)/and D&C in 2001, another fibroid + ovarian chocolate cysts removed 2006. No cancer. Healthy ever since. Last vaginal sonogram is october this year. Doctor said everything looks good healthy.

ANY ADVISE?

If you got your period today, not just spotting, then I would assume you are not pregnant. Sometimes women get spotting when the zygote implants in the uterus, about 7 to 10 days after fertilization, but after that, you would not get your period.
Maybe your cycle was just irregular, or maybe you were pregnant for a few weeks and then miscarried.
