Does Any of This Sound Familiar? Posted: 01-05-05 12:40pm
I know that i've been popping in an out of
here asking questions and trying to keep
myself updated on what my body is doing.
It's so hard to remember exactly when
everything was if you don't write it down.
Honestly I know i'm not pregnant. But if
i'm not, that what explains the:
1. Fluxuation of my appitite/weight.
2. After about 5 weeks with no period and
unprotected sex, I bled a sort of dark
brown blood. Kind of gooey like. About a
pad a day for 4 days.
3. No sign of my period thereafter.
4. More frequent bowel movements.
5. Extreeme heart burn when I wake up.
The end of october is when I got off of
the patch. I had already menstruated. I
took it off at the end of my "period" week
and never replaced my "week one" patch.
The month of november is when I had the
brownish period.
It is now january 5, and there is no sign
of anything. Normally my breasts get sore
2/3 days before my period. I have never
been pregnant before so I don't know what
to feel or expect.
I did take a .99cent pregnancy test during
the month of december and it showed
negative. I am in the midst of
straightening out my insurance abilities.
I also check on a blood test for the doc.
And they said if they're not looking for
the hormone,there's no way to tell.
?!?!?! Thats what I said... " I would
have to ask my gyno/ob." if I even still
have one.
So if anyone can tell me maybe what i'm
going through, or if anyone has been
through this, what to do! Im really
starting to freak out.

I would take another hpt. And once your
insurance is straightened out get a blood
test if you still have no period. Good
luck!

Thanks for the advice. I'm just in a
really boggled state of mid. It's almost
like i'm powerless in this situation and
it's my body. I don't know of any planned
parenthoods in or around my area. Is
there maybe a general number?

It is always hard to tell if someone is
pregnant. Esp. When you are coming off
of the bc. Your hormones and body changes
alot and you will go through different
stages. It could also be your menstrual
cycle is changing and it will eventually
become a regular cycle if you are not
pregnant. But I agree with lil blaze.
Take another hpt or get a blood test done.
Also go see your doc because if you are
pregnant they say the cervix turns blue so
the doctor can tell by an enternal exam.
Good luck to you

I never had any bleeding at all. Not even
spotting. And the first home pregnancy
test I took came back positive. You also
have to remember to pee in a cup and then
stick the stick into the pee directly.

as there are no planned parenthoods where
I live I don't know ageneral number but I
know they have a site and you can search
for ones in your area. Just do a search
on the net!

Hey everyone....Thank you for all of your
advice. I willl get a new ept and test
myself. I have a feeling that i'm not.
But hey....Many people go through their
pregnancy w/o any knowledge of it. But I
mean come on...I think I would be nausious
and sore boobs....But I will follow
everyone's advice and search the net for
planned parenthood for maybe an
examination of some sort.
I really appreciate everyone's input b/c I
don't have anybody to talk to about this
situation. :cry:
i will return with the outcome of the
tests....Hopefully it's negative b/c I
don't believe that me and my fiance are
financially stable. I do see people who
have less than we do make it..But I want
my baby to have everything that I never
did. And everyting that maybe other
people aren't able to provide. Ya know
what I mean? It's kind of hard to
explain. I do have support if I were to
be pregnant. But it's like if it's a
"maybe" than I get a lot of static.
