Is It Spotting? Posted: 08-27-07 19:07pm
I know the internet can't tell me if I’m
pregnant, but I just want to know if it's
possible...
the last 2 weeks I’ve had symptoms:
nausea
headaches
cramps
sudden, intense, & urgent need to pee,
whereupon i hardly have to go (this has
been improving though still too frequent)
sudden, intense, frequent hunger and
sudden extremely overstuffed feeling,
after eating only a little ( also
improving, but still there)
mood swings ( usually between pointless
joy and extreme irritation)
fatigue
breast soreness
hot flashes (ugg)
& back pain
also I've been very forgetful lately, but
i don't know if that has anything to do
with everything else. [?]
Just to be specific: I'm not imagining
these symptoms, others have noticed them,
and I’m not saying I'm (or trying to be)
pregnant. My boyfriend suggested I could
be, and from what I checked on the net,
the symptoms do match pretty well. Also,
I'm not stressed about anything, so it
isn't that.
Here's what's bothering me though:
I was supposed to start my period on the
25th. That morning, there was nothing but
a pink spot on the paper when i went to
the bathroom. Later, at 4 when I checked,
I had bled a little, but not enough to
even feel wet or uncomfortable or
anything.
Today's the 3rd day and it's almost gone.
Only a little bit of it's red, it's mostly
pink-ish and brown, and most of it isn't
even blood, it's a white-ish discharge,
which has never happened with my period,
and rarely at all any other time. (it's
been continual the last 2 weeks)
Is this even my period? Is it spotting???
I'm afraid that if I'm not pregnant, I
have some kind of terminal illness ...
Sorry, this kind of turned into a graphic
rant...

The only thing we can really tell you is
to take a pregnancy test, hon.
Unfortunately, the things you've been
feeling aren't exclusive to pregnancy. It
would be nice if there was a
pregnancy-only symptom, like blue pee or
something.
Anyway, let us know if/when you test! Good
luck!

yeah, that would be nice!
I know it could be something else, any
thoughts on what specifically?
