Not a Normal Period, Could I Be Pregnant? Posted: 01-28-05 20:31pm
I live with my boyfriend, I just moved
here, and its a big city, so I cant really
just go get a pg test to see if I am or
not,
but im 4 days late with my period, and
yesterday and today I had cramps (which is
unusual) usually I have cramps about my
second day into my period, ive never had
them before the period. And this morning,
I had a spot of blood in my panties (ive
never spotted before) and so I put a pad
on, incase it was my period, and when I
woke up from sleeping, I had a little more
blood on the pad.
This is not unusual. I have extremely
heavy periods, this is the lightest ive
ever bled in the 13 years ive beenhaving
periods.
I also have been feeling sick to my
stomach for the past week or so, my
breasts are extremely tender, which ive
never experienced either.
Its so weird, does it sound like it?
Cause like I said, ive never had spotting
before, breast tenderness or sickness
around a period, or cramps before a
period.
Ive never been around anyone pregnant
before either, so I really dont know what
the symptoms are, or what it could be
like.
I did a calculator on a website, and it
said if I am pregnant, id be 4 weeks and 4
days, or something like that.
Just curious. Sorry for typing so much.
Im just so nervous about knowing.
- oh so confused

All of the symptoms your experiencing
could be signs of pregnancy, implantation
spotting etc but they could have other
explanations as well I guess. I had
always been fairly regular and quite heavy
as well and then all of sudden some
strange things started to happen like just
spotting light pink or brown when I was
supposed to have my period. I
thought/hoped I was pregnant but it turned
out I have cysts on my ovaries. So if
things are going on that are not normal
and you find out that your not pregnant
make sure you go and have a check up to
find out why it's happening.
Hope everything works out the way you want
it to :)

well, ive had cysts before.. So I know
what thats like, and its not that way.
Like, its weird.
I feel pregnant, but what happened after
the spotting was, my period got real heavy
for half a day, then the other half it was
very light, then it got heavey again, then
light. Then my period was over.. Yet
this morning I woke up and went to the
bathroom, and when I wiped there was a lot
of blood clots (not to sound gross) but
since then I havent had any bleeding at
all.
Its so weird.. And my body just doesnt
feel right. But I know its not a cyst..
And I guess you cant have a regular period
and be pregnant, right?

Yes you can still have periods while you
are pregnant. At least some women do. I
know that one of my aunts had a period for
a few monthes when she was pregnant with
my cousin. But you still need to take a
test or go to a doctor to make sure.
I would like to know something. Did you
never have like a sharp pain or something
like needles sticking your side when you
had cyst. I was just wondering. Because
a cousin of my was asking me and I didn't
know what to tell her.

I agree. It's not very commmon but it
does happen. My grandmother had her
"periods" for 4 mths when she was pregnant
with my uncle and my cousin had hers for 6
when she was pregnant with her first
daughter. She was 16 and in denial that
she was pregnant for a long time because
of that.
Not trying to get your hopes up too high
but it does happen.
