Confussed!
Posted: 11-24-03 09:53am

I'm 29yrs old, its been 7 yrs since I had my girl. I had a miscarrage 2yrs ago. I was 10weeks preg. Since then I was on the pill, then I went 3 months on the shot. But went back to the pill, cuz I hated the shot. I was mean all the time and had hot flashes.
Anyway I went back on the pill, and it made me sick all of the time. So I stopped taking it like 4-6 months ago (it might have been longer).

I have had a few nasty periods, then they tappered off to mild ones. The last few were like a day or 2 long. And now I missed my period,i cant even tell you how long. I know of missing one month. I have been so busy with getting ready to move that I havent payed attention. It could be 2 monthes now w/o a period.

I do know my boobs are alittle bigger and have been really sore. I have really tired too.. But I also have been cramping or just pain for 2 weeks now. If it was a period I usaully get bloated, but no bloating here. My husband says he wants to wait a few more years before we have another kid, so I havent even talked to him about this. If I am I didnt want the stress to be around till later on in the pregnancy. I am afraid if I am preg. Will I have another miscarrage. Losing one was enough for my life time. I dont think I could handle losing another.

Well have you taken a test to find out? You could be pregnant, but you need to take a test to know for sure. You should take one soon. And ask the doc the chances of having another miscarriage. Just take care and dont stress it. Let us know what happens

Hi sue,

nikki is right, it is a little hard to determine whether or not you are pregnant without taking the test. Let's face it, your chances of becoming pregnant are very high, as you haven't had the protection of birth control for 4 - 6 months, therefore you could quite possibly be pregnant. The fact that you've missed a period, possibly two, aswell as having a couple of early pregnancy symptoms, the best idea right now is to take a pregnancy test. There is no reason why you should miscarry this time if you are in fact pregnant. Stress certainly doesn't help in early pregnancy, the first 12 weeks are the most important and you should be calm and stress free to give bubby a good start. Although there is not really anything you could do to cause a miscarriage, unless you are lifting heavy objects, smoking and drinking. It is most important you find out now whether or not you are pregnant, moving house is not only one of the most stressful things a person can do, but hard labour aswell if you are not using a removalist.

Good luck
