Pregnant And Bleeding
Posted: 02-26-06 11:34am

Hi, I haven't ever been on here before but I have been reading some other peoples stories. Well I am 18 and pregnant. At least think I am because I had no period last month and this month I had nothing until yesterday. Now it is almost like a regular period happening now. I am only having pain in my lower back but other than that no cramps or anything. I have been feeling sick either at night or in the mornings, I have been having mood swings, and i've been tired lately. Do you think I am pregnant or having a miscarriage or is this just normal for a pregnancy? My fiance and I are really excited about this so I hope all is well. Please someone write me back, i've never been through anything like this and I don't have a mom or anyone like that to talk to. So I am completely lost on like what I can do or what I can't do while being pregnant. Well, if you know anything please write back...........Thanks

It is possible you just skipped a period for some other reason. Did you not take a test after you suspected you may be pregnant?

Bleeding And Pregnant
Posted: 02-26-06 12:08pm

No I didn't take a test because no one but me and my fiance know that I could be pregnant. So I just figured that if I had no period this month that it'd probably be final that I am pregnant. But I mean I am not bleeding like really bad. It isn't really light or really heavy its like in the middle. But i'm going to take a test when I stop bleeding.

It's always best to take a home pregnancy test even before you tell anyone, just in case. How old are you, by the way?

If you missed 2 periods and now are bleeding, assuming you are pregnant--that is usually why someone doesnt have their period. I would go the the er right away. Tell them you believe you are 3 months pregnant and they will do something--then you will know for sure--and if you are miscarrying they might can do something to stop it.

I am 18 years old and the only reason that I told my fiance is because I feel like he should know I mean he deserves to know. And I am going to either go to the doc. Or hospital either tonight or tomorrow. Just to see if I stop bleeding.

How many years have you been getting your periods? Because they can reallly screw you around sometimes. I've been menstruating for 8 years now (i'm 17) and they still sometimes randomly skip around. (i'm not having sex, by the way.)

i'm not trying to convince you that you're not pregnant, just so you know. I'm just thinking of other possibilities.

I'm still wondering why you wouldn't take a home test after your first missed period. There are other reasons you can miss your period, you can't really just assume you're pregnant. Wouldn't you like to know for sure if you are so you can start taking proper care of yourself? Have you been taking prenatal vitamins since assuming you're pregnant?
