Q: Uh Ohh...

Well I had a m/c as you all know...And me and my boyfriend did continue to have sexual intercourse after that..Well today...I was looking at my calender to figure out when my next period was..And I was suppose to get it on the 9th?!? It's the 10th now...And I dont know if it was from the m/c or am I pregnant? We had unprotected sex on the 22nd of october so I would be about 4 weeks pregnant? It says that I would be feeling tired, going to the bathroom more..And tende swollen breast, all that hurts are my nipples...And I have been eating alot. Last night I ate a half a pizza, two hamburgers, french fries, and alooott of water I just couldn't stop...I felt so full... But when I looked at the food I just wanted to eat it (if that makes any sense at all!)...I've also been breaking out alot...(pimples) on my face, which isnt normal for me. One day I had a horrible headache...I actually went home because of it, and very terrible mood swings where I jsut can't stand it when my boyfriend will goof around with me, and my stomach is bloated a bit... My stomach hasnt been cramping very much but, it stopped about two days ago and now I just havent gotten my period. My boyfriend said he is going to get me a pregnancy test tomorrow... But I just wanted to know...Can I be or am i??

You may be theirs no way to know for sure until of course you take the test..Sometimes when you put it in your head that you are preg...Everything that happens may make it seem more as if you were but you never know...Just get the test and wait and see...And I know its clique to say but you shouldnt be having unprotected sex...You need to protect yourself against std and unwanted preg. Keep us updated

You could be pregnant - it just depends. I'm not sure when you had a m/c, but it may take a couple months for your period to get back to normal & that may be the reason for the delay. I would take a test & see what it says. If it is neg & you don't get your period soon, you may want to talk to your doctor. Good luck.

The dollar tests are alright, especially if you are a week or so late. But to detect the hcg the earliest, my favorite is the answer brand (i also like first response). The answer test told me 4 days before I expected my period. The line was faint b/c it was early, but I could see it plain as day.

They all work the same way, some are probably just a little more sensitive than others and show a positive result with less hormone (ie-earlier)

it could be just your body getting back to normal- take care of you, and if you start to feel unwell, or not yourself, go back to your doctor and make sure evrything is ok.

Babies will come, as long as you are ok- take care of you first.

All the best

pffft, no !!!!!

No baby yet. She's staying in. She's comfy.

I lost the crazy mucus plug thing today though, apparently, it could be anywhere from hours to days now (big help).

I won't hold my breath.

I was 11 days (as in when I was born) late. They gave my mom 2 weeks to have me normaly or they were gonna take me out, and 3 days b4 they were gonna take me out I decided to come out on my own. I guess I just didnt want to be a valentines baby since my due date was feb 14, but my birthday is feb 25:) I will hopefully be having a baby next april. Me and my boyfriend plan on waiting another 8 months to start trying for a baby, we want to make sure everything is in order
