Could I Be Pregnant!!!help!!! Posted: 05-06-06 10:56am
I'm 18 years old and I think i'm in
trouble my last period was about first
week of april I think the 6th was first
day it ended about 10th and I had sex on
my boyfriend b-day the 18 we forgot to use
a condom and i'm not under any birth
control at all. My periods are pretty
normal give or take a few days but now i,m
seem to be spotting which I expected to
turn into a period it has not its just
faint brown stuff and maybe a little red
I told my cousin because I have never had
this happen and she told me that when
she was pregnant she had the same thing
only it was implantation bleeding i'm not
sure what that is? And my boyreind and
I just broke up and I dont want to freak
him out he,'s grounded and may not
graduate from high school and I just got
into 3 colleges and am trying to make a
decision on which to go to and ever sice
my cousin said this yesterday i've been
going crazy. Should I take a pregnancy
test? She said to go to the doctor but
I dont want to tell my parents unless I
am. I thought it might be weight loss
but that was barley 5 pounds and I have
dropped more with no period problems. I
have funny cramp and feel sick and my
boobs feel little werid. I'm scared .

: implantation happens when the fertilized
egg (now called a blastocyst) has
completed its travel through the fallopian
tube and attaches to the lining of the
uterus. The blastocyst is a cluster of
tiny cells, smaller than the head of a
pin.
Implantation happens on average nine days
(6-12 days) after ovulation and
fertilization.
Most women have no symptoms on the day of
implantation but some report a couple of
drops of blood, which can be either red or
brown or they have mild cramps. This is
also called 'implantation bleeding or
cramping.'
that bleeding is usually no more than a
couple of drops. If it's like a period,
then it's unlikely implantation bleeding.
But most women who become pregnant do not
experience typical implantation bleeding,
and many women who are not pregnant
experience some spotting.
And yes take a test to make sure

That throws me off even more because
before I had sex I had some spotting two
days before I had sex and I usually spot
10 days about after my period mid mounth
and this is nothing like any period I have
ever had.Plus a lot later and only a few
drops its pretty much stopped now and I
only had it for 3-4 days it was not
enought o use a tampon.
