Hello all,
I am new to this board; I have been reading all the posts trying to find some advice from someone elses'. But I am not quite finding what I am looking for. So I will post my own. Here it is. I am 30 yrs old and I have an almost eight year old son. His father and I ended up sleeping together on the 22nd of september. I didn't think it was the right time in my cycle, since I have been keeping track of my periods for the last several months religiously. So I didn't think anything about it. And, if my calculations were correct my time of ovulation should have been between the 14th and the 19th. The thing is I should have started my period this time on the 30th or the 1st. I have not started yet, and it is now the 4th. I know that it isn't very late. The only thing that has happened is very slight spotting that started about 11:30 pm on the 3rd. It is a pinkish red with mucous in it. About the only symptoms of pregnancy that I have is a constant queasiness, lots of gas, and I have also had some mild cramping. My breasts have, at least every month that I can recall, hurt badly starting about week before I get my period. Almost so bad that I didn't want to wear a bra. But this month they have not hurt or gotten even the least bit sensitive. I thought that was odd. I know they hurt pretty bad when I was pregnant with my son. And, I also have that same feeling I had when I was pregnant with my son before it was confirmed with any test. It just isn't quite as strong. I know I would like to be pregnant because I would like to have another child. And I know that my son is ready to be a big brother. He wants that so much that he talks about it all the time. I will not have any money to get a test til friday, but I will be getting one no matter. I just am looking for a little advice or similar experience in the meantime.

Thank you.

Hi there!

To me it sounds like you are pregnant, especially since your flow was very light this time around. You are also not exhibiting your normal signs of pms, but rather signs of pregnancy. Of course I wouldnt know for certain lol, but to me it sounds like you are.

As for when you had sex, you can get pregnant any time during your cycle, doesnt matter if its your fertile days or not. Plus, the 22nd is right after your most fertile days, which can still leave you pretty fertile lol.

Let us know what the tests says :d

Well, I started bleeding a little more the next day but not much more. The days that followed got just a bit heavier than that but still not like a normal flow for me. It is now friday, and I have started just spotting again. This is totally not normal for me. I usually have my period for a total of 6-7 days with light-medium-heavy-light days. I did have some very small clots in there, which is also a little unusual because I usually have medium sometimes bigger. This has been normal for me for almost as long as I have had my periods. I did have the cramps for a couple days after I started bleeding but then they stopped. I still have the gas and sometimes the queasiness like I was having. Just not to the same extent that I was. I did take a test this morning, and it did come back negative. So I don't think that I am. I think it was more stress(of wanting to be) than anything else that made me late. Thanks all for listening and all who gave input/advice.
