Pregnant Or Just Hormonal?? Posted: 08-21-06 13:28pm
Well okay a month ago I had a miscarriage
at 2 weeks pregnant, 2 weeks ago and also
last friday I had unprotected sex now i've
noticed my nipples are wide and whereas
ive always been a heavy smoker,ive grown
an extreme distaste for cigarettes and ive
stopped craving all together . Some
people have said it could just be hormones
lingering from my last short lived
pregnancy but it seems like if that were
the case I would have had some other
symptoms between now and last month. Im
not saying I feel pregnant because its
only been a couple weeks, but I was just
needing some more opinions before I test.
Xxxooo

Sorry for your loss!
When you say 2 weeks pregnant you actually
means 1 month , right? Meaning you
miscarried right when your period was
due?
If that is the case I doubt you will have
any hcg left over because at that stage
there isnt a great deal running through
your system.
You could be freshly pregnant once again
since most women are instantly fertile
after miscarrying.

2 weeks pregnant? At 2 weeks pregnant,
you'd have just missed your period. Is
that when you miscarried? Did you go to
the doctor to get the miscarriage
confirmed?
I'm asking because it can be completely
normal for some women to bleed in early
pregnancy. Unless it was a confirmed
miscarriage, you may still be pregnant.
That said, any time there is unprotected
sex there is a possibility of pregnancy.
Hormones can linger or you could be
pregnant. You should make an appointment
with your doctor to be sure.
Good luck!!!

i did miss one period,but
then I miscarried 3 weeks before my next
period was due,it was a very confusing
experience for me. But you said what I
was thinking,so thanks for making me feel
better :d
:d
that would put you at about 5 weeks
pregnant not 2 weeks.
2 weeks pregnant is actually when your
about to ovulate and arent actually
pregnant yet. So, by the time you 1st
missed period comes along your already 4
weeks along.
Heavy bleeding sound slike a miscarriage
but you should have visited a dr or gone
to a hospital...Was the pregnancy
confrimed ?

it is always advised to go see a doctor
whenever there is a miscarriage. If blood
is pouring out of you, you need to take
iron pills and be monitored so you don't
lose too much blood. Sometimes a d &
c is necessary to remove any tissue left
inside (this is usually endometrial
tissue).
You should go see your doctor and get
checked now. Even if you aren't pregnant,
you need to make sure you are starting out
healthy.

You're right I really need to. Im new to
all this. The thing that has been holding
me back is that I just turned 18 in feb.
And im still on my mom's insurance,my mom
has mental problems (she's paranoid
schizophrenic) and whenever things happen
in my life she cant handle it without
stressing me out so bad once she gave me a
panic attack sooo for obvious reasons im
scared of telling her because if I am
pregnant I dont want to be really
stressed...But I suppose it's inevitable
and it would be stupid for me to be
selfish in a situation like this so thanks
for your advice

for your own health and well being, you
would need to be seen by a doctor. You
can 'lie' to her about going to the
doctor. Say it's for something else or
whatever. But, by 18, you should be able
to get to the doctor on your own - and you
can use her insurance card without her
being there (as long as you are on the
policy). Maybe tell her it is your yearly
pap appt? At least until you know what is
going on...
There is always planned parenthood. They
can give pregnancy tests and they also do
birth control - for free.
If you are a college student, there might
be a clinic at your college that also does
free/low cost birth control and pregnancy
testing.
Good luck!

I don't see that as being selfish.Being
stressed while pregnant is not good at
all.Can't you go to the health department
or something.If you don't have a job you
can get it for free.If you do have a
job,you can get care for cheap! You wont
have to tell your mom for a while but she
will have to know sometime
