If anyone can help I would be so happy. Ok i've posted on here before and said that I have had weird feelings in my lower stomach and sometimes a little painful. And about two weeks ago my breasts started hurting really bad and the veins were all circling around my nipples, well I had the weirdest period ever last week, very light, and I only had to wear maybe 3 tampons (just for security reasons) and they would come out very dry. Well that completely stopped on friday and it is now monday and I expected all of the symptoms to go away well they havent. I still have a lot of 'pressure'/odd sensations in my lower stomach, my boobs are now starting to hurt around the nipples and today when i've been peeing when I wipe I now have brownish pinkish discharge on my toliet paper. I took a pregnancy test last wed. And it said negative and I just took one 5 minutes ago and it said negative. Please if anyone can help me out here I would be so greatful. I dont know whether or not to be very worried....--some background info---i did have unprotected sex july 27th and july 31st, my period in july was on the 15th. Im usually really regular and have a 28 day cycle, so I should have started on friday and the weird period started on monday....I dont know what to do thanks for listening and for your help! God bless :)

I can take up to 3 weeks after missed period to get pos preg test. Shyt some women never get pos. Preg test. But me and my daughter 22 years apart both had to wait until 3 weeks after missed period.

I hope you are good luck

Hi, just looking though your message and I seem to be having the same symptoms minus the sore breast though. I got my periods last july 16th. Since that time I was experiencing cramping, alot of gas and very moody. Within the last week I have been getting headachjes which I normally never get. I started my periods on the 13th of august (well i'm not convinced they were). They started off with brown spotting for that day, the next day was browny red so I wore a pad but they died down that nite. The next day brown discharge but very mild. So today I have been getting brown discharge when I wipe but they are literally gone. Not a normal period for me. I did a test yesterday and still negative. I do not know what to think. Today I had a nap for an hour too.

Hope to hear from u soon

I called my nearest family planning and the lpn on call at the time told me that I would prolly not get a positive result from a hpt for at least 1-2 weeks. But she did say that if I got a blood test that it would tell me if I was pregnant. I've been having my weird aches in my lower stomach really bad today and I just found out my doctor wont be back until the middle of september..So im thinking about goin to the hospital. Let me know if you find something out ok? Hope to hear from ya :)

Hi again,
well I haven't done anything yet as of yet. I'm just trying to wait it out until next week and do another test.
I know how frustrating it is and every1 saying that the test should show up something by now. Do u know the ivillage website. Go onto the message board and then select am I pregnant. Their is a topic that has jackpot. One ladies experience with negative testing. Have a look and keep me posted aswell.

You prob wont get a clear positive result till around five or six days of your missed period. The period like eposide you discribed sounds like inplantation bleeding. There is a good chance that you are pregnant
