People Keep Asking Us " Am I Pregnant".. Posted: 08-09-06 20:50pm
Sorry, but I see the same posts over and
over again :p. If you dont know if
you're pregnant or not, plz just take a
pregnancy test from the drug store, we can
not tell u if u are or not, so instead of
taking the time to type out a post, go to
the store and take a test. And if you
dont wana get pregnant go on birth
control!! Not trying to be mean or
anything but just take a test, or go to
the doctors ladies.. Sorry but had to
vent...

There is no need for that so what if
someone asks that why does it bother you
so bad. If it does to no end then get off
the site that is what half the questions
are or here is an idea dont read them but
dont write some ignorant letter that is
going to upset people.

Patty, shes not trying to be mean shes
just tired of seeing the same old stuff.
I know this is a pregnancy site and we're
here to help, but shes just saying that
theres a sticky at the top of the forum
that says "signs and symptoms of
pregnancy" and thats clearly the only
thing we can say to people to help them.
Shes not trying to be rude, but shes
venting and shes allowed to do that, just
as they are allowed to post all of the "am
I pregnant" questions that they want.
Sucks but thats the way it is

Actually the "signs of pregnancy" topic
doesn't lead anywehre helpful at all, I
tried there already. So, my question: is
there increased vaginal discharge during
pregnancy? White, milky discharge?
Also how common is it to have a period
requiring a tampon and/or pads during
pregnancy?

well it saves them from
asking the same question that another one
just asked.All they have to do is look for
someone asking the same question as
them,its not hard. . .Also,hmmm, saying
"my boyfriend nutted in me can I be
pregnant?" well he nutted in you so
yes.Their damn question answers itself!

Actually i'm being bad and trying to
"psychically" ask you all if I am
pregnant, so thank you ;) it was lighter
and shorter than usual, but lasted 3 and a
half days, and it definately wasn't pink.
I'm on the pills, but there was a screw
up. I've had two fairly normal periods
since then (infact the first one was
extemely normal but that was the day after
the possibly unprotected sex), but
increased discharge followed in the next
month.

I'm on the
pills.
you are on birth control pills?
If so, that can make your period
considerably lighter and shorter. If it
came on time, I highly doubt you would be
pregnant. Especially if you are taking
your pills on time consistently.

I've been on bcp's over a year now, so it
wouldn't make sense for it to suddenly be
shortening my period. The mistake I made
was skipping week two of the pills, on
accident. I took the last pill of week
one and then (through a switcheroo of
packs because I forgot mine at home) I
took the first pill of week three, and so
on. I didn't discover this mistake until
week two... Of the next month. Because I
figured "hey, this new pack, I started
half way through. I'll just start up with
week one of this pack, take it until the
point in which i'd done the switch over,
and everything will be copasetic and I
won't have wasted two half-packets of
pills. I get to the end of week two,
because that's how much was in the pack,
and go back and look at the old pack,
since it should only have week three
pills, because that's where I thought I
was, so that's where i'd started on the
new pack. Well, the old pack had,
terrifyingly, all of week two still in it,
which means when I picked upthe new pack,
i'd skipped week two. Well, I didn't take
all of these week two pills, because this
time around, that would have meant that
i'd be taking two weeks of week-two pills,
and that's not good, since I was supposed
to be starting week three now, as I had
just finished week two on the other pack.
So I went on to week three, and since I
had the packets to compare, I knew this
time that I was actually right. But of
course now, I knew that last month my
cycle had only consisted of week one and
week three pills, so I freaked out, even
though i'd gotten a totally normal period.
Now, it's been that whole normal month of
taking the pills the right way, and i've
had yet another period. However, this one
was lighter, not by much, and lasted three
and a half days, which is about a day
shorter than normal. I also had unusually
heavy discharge last month, that stopped
promptly when I got onto the week three
pills. I am on week one pills once again,
and my discharge has been a little heavy,
but nothing too unusual, not yet anyway.

I really dont understand what the big deal
is some girls that are ttc get excited and
just want to ask if they are or maybe have
had a similaiar problem/ sympton and just
need advice. Yes there are sites and the
sticky but some people just like to be
told individualy and if bothers you then
why read it or even post on it, just
ignore the post, many posts go unanswered
for awhile. Not trying to vent but I
understand bc im one ttc and often think
to myself am I preggo, maybe ill ask
someone....

yeah well its usually
teens asking the same thing over and over
and asking it very stupidly. "my
boyfriend caqme in me can I be prg?" come
one now? Uh the answer is yes.Or the ones
who say they are having symptoms 2 days
after sex,its really rediculous and
annoying after a while of seeing it.If
your ttc and your older and you know your
chances fine,but all we are going to say
in the end is get a test.I don't know how
that helps any,its something you already
know

take a pregnancy test. If you were to be
pregnant, it would be positive by now.
If you have screwed with your hormones,
then it seems likely your body would
experience a hormone imbalance which would
indeed make your period lighter and
shorter.

I even made a sticky "before posting am I
pregnant". The reason it's so annoying
is because...How are we supposed to tell
you. People know what the different
symptoms are andif they think they are
preggo then test. That's what I did. I
only joined here after finding out I was
pregnant.

well some people use the symptoms to see
if they are pregnant. In my case, I
wanted to know about periods and
pregnancy, because i've had two fairly
normal periods, but I am still worried.
So the fact that the "pregancy symptoms"
thread was completely useless prompted me
to actually ask my question.

so agree with you so many ask the same
thing are we doctor or a pregnancy test a
test will only tell you if you are
pregnant or a doctor can a period and
pregnancy sings are just about the
same..That's how I found out I was
pregnant missed af and went and got 2
dollar tree test and got 2 bfp so one that
asked the same thing over and or am I
pregnant just get a test like we all
did..We understand you are hear to asked
but there are already sings up saying
before you post am I pregnant...
