So Very Scared That I'm Pregnant!!!!
Posted: 07-12-05 17:34pm

I'm 20 and married but we can't afford to have a baby right now. We have to much on our plate right now paying off our weddingmoon to jamaica, our new house, bills, ect. My periods have been weird cause I got off of the depo shot last oct after being on it for 2 and a half years. They have been regular even though they aren't a normal period. I would bleed heavily for 2 weeks and then not have it for 2 weeks and then start the process all over again. Well the whole week before we left for jamaica we were having sex all the time without protection cause we figured it was safe since I still had a week till my period was suppose to start. Well my period came a week early. Now i'm tired all the time, i'll be nausaous 1 min. And the next ravished but after I eat I feel sick again, my lower back is killing me, and now i'm getting a sharp pain in my left lower abdomen. Plus my period is now 1 and half weeks late. And I was lightly spotting on again off again for a couple of days. Should I be concerned and get a pregnancy test or wait it out and see if my period ever comes. I'm just so scared cause we we're drinking alot of alchol in jamaica and at our wedding reception. Whats the best brand of hpt to use? This all happened 5 - 6 weeks ago.

The light spotting could mean implantation bleeding, but i'm just going by what others have said because i've never been pregnant. You should be able to test now if you're period is a week and a half late. Test with first response because with that brand you can use it even before your period is due so if you're late you should definitely get a correct result. If its negative try not to stress about it because that could cause your period to be late also.

We took a hpt last week and it was negative. My tummy feels somewhat better but now the last few days i've had heartburn really bad and I never get heartburn. And my period still hasn't come. Just so occasional spotting. Should I be concerned?

You're period could be late because you're stressing about it. I know that happened to me a while ago. I was over a week late and took a couple tests which came out negative but eventually I got my period. Try not to worry about it (which I know is easier said than done) but if you're concerned go to the doc and get a blood test done. That will be more accurate because sometimes women just won't get positve hpt tests.

I finally got my period 4 weeks late but it was very odd. It was extremely heavy. I would fill a super tampon to the point i'd be leaking in 4 hours. Normally I can make it through the night just fine with a super. This time I couldn't. Could this of been some sort of miscarriage? I'm kinda freaked out by how much blood I lost during my period.

Cic you see any clots of any kind??

That is sure sign of miscarriage.

My first pregnancy 3 weks after conception, I week late, blood and clots,
2nd pregnancy 4 weeks after conception, 2 weeks late, blood and clots, third pregnancy 6 or 8 weeks after conception, I month or more late, 2 weeks of hard cramping, bleeding clots and distinguisable mucusy clot. Miscarried and had d&c at the hospital.

Yeah I had blood clots. I normally have clots with my periods but these were bigger and more of them. I've had a miscarriage before but it was differnt than this. I had big chunks come out and it hurt like hell and it all happened over night not over a weeks time. I did have some bad cramps with this period but nothing like last time so i'm just not sure. I hope this isn't what I get to look forward to with only having miscarriages instead of pregnancys :cry: .

First baby was on a one night stand--dint really want baby yet--but I would have loved it anyway

2nd one first night with my first husband did want it kinda--not really ready

3rd was also with husband --we did want her and mourned when we lost her.

Then I had my first son healthy on time, a little late

next one was a molar pregnancy where the baby dies right aafter conception and a growth grows-- I almost bleed to death

next one was 4 1/2 month, strong heart, bleeding clots the size of my hand. Came out alive they couldn't take care of it, not medical facilities for it. A week in labor

next one my daughter she came out late too, but waited to be born on my birthday

next one 6 weeks or so preg got in a fight with best friend for sleeping with my husband --miscarried within 2 weeks--emotional stress I believe

then my last son-- dont know how late--12 months no period. My beautiful baby is 19 years old now.

So I have 3 live births and 6 miscarriages, no medical reason found just how it was. Grateful every minute for the ones I have. Believing for a miracle baby after hysterectomy. I still have ovaries and 1 tube which is tied.

Wow thats sad. At least u got to have 3 beautiful children and not all miscarriages. I was glad about my 1st miscarriage cause it was the summer before my senior year in high school and the last thing I needed was a baby. This one if thats what it was will be with my husband, we aren't finacially ready for one but we still wanted it.

I am sorry if you did.

But I can say it seems like there is never a finacial time to have a baby--

just real expensive, seems there never is enough "week at the end of the money"
if you know what I mean. I do understand times being tight though.

God bless you both

You might seriously think of going to the dr and getting checked because if you did miscarry you might need a d&c that is where they clean you out and scrape your utererus(sp) to avoid infection and to get on some type of b/c device until you are ready. Congratulations on your marriage! I bet when you are both ready, things will happen. Jamaica is fun, aye!
