Okay. The first day of my last period was june 30th. My period was irregular. I am very regular, with a 5-7 day period, all days heavy except the last. My last period, was 3 days long, with only one heavy day.

I have been testing ever since my irregular period. The test only came up positive after I missed my period totally, which was supposed to be due on july 28th.

My question is, is it possible that I have been pregnant before my last period (irregular one), even though I tested postive only after I actually missed my expected period on the 28th? Wouldn't the test come back postive sooner or is it possible I just wasnt producing enough hormones?

You should look up implantation bleeding. It is possible that you could have been pregnant. Or you could of gotten pregnant right before your period and your hormone levels were just high enough around the 28th to test positive. I would talk to your doctor abou it. Were you ttc? Congrats about the baby.

Hmm, never really thought it might be implantation bleeding... I bled for a day and then it stopped over night... Only to start again and bleed lightly for 2 days. I have been pregnant once before and didnt start feeling symptoms until 6 weeks... This time around, my symptoms started a week and a half ago... But I am unsure if I am 4 and a half weeks or 8 and a half weeks... I guess if I were 8 and a half weeks, I would be sick as a dog already? Also, this time around, my chest is bigger and fuller, but not sore like last time (last time I was in tears lol). Is this normal?

We are very excited about this pregnancy, this will be our first baby!
