Hot flashes + moody + late period + tied tubes = am I preggo Posted: 10-04-07 15:54pm
I am at a complete loss here. I am 45
yrs. old. I've had regular periods since
puberty. I have had 4 children and know
what it's like to feel pregnant. Lately,
my periods have been coming closer
together (28 days apart as opposed to 30 6
months ago). I was having hot flashes and
night sweats and very moody up for about 6
months up until just the last 2 weeks. I
had my tubes tied 21 yrs. ago, but since
then have had at least 2 miscarriages - no
normal pregnancies though. I had
unprotected sex 22 days ago. It would
have been very near the middle of my
cycle. Now I am 8 days late for my
period. I have very tender breasts, feel
bloated, but no cramps (I usually have
major cramps before my period). I felt a
little nauseous this morning when I went
to drink my coffee, but think it could
have just been a little bug or something.
I am just wondering what the chances are
of me being pregnant... or if anyone else
has had this experience. Also I'm
wondering if I am... what are the odds of
being able to carry this baby to term??
HELP

Probably higher for you since it sounds as
if you have been pregnant twice since your
tubes have been tied.
Take a pregnancy test to see if you are
pregnant. You'll need to get into a doctor
ASAP considering your age and history.
