I am TTC and am wondering if I'm being overly hopeful...or is there a chance i might be pregnant?

I have a normal cycle that lasts anywhere from 24-26 days.

I got my period on June 1st...therefore I didn't expect my next period until at least June 25th. We had unprotected sex on June 7th and 9th. On June18th I had some light brown discharge, but only when I wiped. On the 19th and 20th I had bright red, but then it stopped. My period usually gets very heavy and lasts for 6 days. This time, it was not heavy at all, and completely stopped after 2 days.

Could this have been just an abnormal period? I feel tired and a little nauseous sometimes, and I have been super emotional, but then I think maybe I'm just looking for these symptoms.

I want to take a test on the 25th, but I'm wondering if it's just a waste...I don't have any "real" symptoms...

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this?

Why not wait until the weekend before testing? Your exposure and signs give some reason for hope. Good luck!

Wait I forgot one more thing and which was the most important thing...my question is...Is it possible that the d&c is interfering with my pregnancy leaving little hcg that makes it hard for the test to read...since the d&c is a clean up you know...or IS it possible that my husbands low sperm count is making it possible for the pregnancy tests to recognise the hcg hormone easily???...what could be the problem...Hellllpppppp......

Wait I forgot one more thing and which was the most important thing...my question is...IS it possible that my husbands low sperm count is making the pregnancy tests harder to read the hcg hormone in my body....by da way guyz...I havent had any history of cysts or anything like that...Orrrrr....Is it possible that the d&c is interfering with my pregnancy leaving little hcg that makes it hard for the test to read...since the d&c is a clean up you know......??????????????

Hi everyone! I have a question. 2 weeks from the baby dance, I started having light brown spotting the time I was supposed to start my period (for 3 days only). Before then, I had flu like symptoms (but never got sick) I threw up once, have been generally fatigued, and having headaches everyday. Could these be signs of pregnancy and have any of you ever experienced this? I rarely ever miss a period and just have brown discharge instead. Thanks...

Hey,

Im lesbian, but my boobs have been super sore like for the last 3 months and EVERYDAY white/clear (panadol liquid like stuff) comes out. like lacktating. what is this

i cant be pregnant
I feel sick everyday


kimberly - June 25th, 2009 11:55 AM

Lesbibaby, if you haven't had any exposure to sex with a male and are lactating you need to be seen by a Dr. soon. Lactation can be a sign of a tumor, most are non cancerous but it can be cancerous so it is very important to get checked out. There is a post on here somewhere that has info about this...look for lactating in the question.



kimberly - June 25th, 2009 11:59 AM

Buzzy1028,you had sex on you fertile days ( being you have short cycles)so it is possible. The bleeding on the 18th,19th and 20th, could have been implantation, timing is right for it. A test today would be a good idea if you didn't start a real period yet!

EVERYONE PLEASE COULD YOU HELP ME OUT WITH SOMETHING HERE..........

Sherlz, Its more likely that your cycles are irregular due to your miscarriage. Most women will have abnormal and longer cycles after a miscarraige. Your husbands sperm count would have nothing to do with a pregnancy test picking up the hcg. Once his sperm fertilizes the egg and the egg implants in the uterus hcg starts to be produced by your body. However his low count could make it harder to concieve, some couples have to do IVF to concieve. Just because you are 21 also don't mean you are really fertile. Even very young women can have fertility issues. If your period don't return you might want to ask your Dr. why. You should retest in a week just to be extra sure.
