Could I Be Pregnant
Posted: 03-23-07 20:12pm

was wondering if anyone could help me, my period is usually right on track, well last month i started my period on the 6th, then again on the 26 only the second one only lasted for 3 days. My husband and I have been ttc for a little over a year now. and i was wondering since last month was different could i be pregnant?

If you think you might be pregnant, you should take a pregnancy test. Take it first thing in the morning before you've emptied your bladder. If you're pregnant, the pregnancy hormone (hcg) will be more concentrated and you'll have a better chance of triggering a positive.

You might want to join our "getting pregnant" forum. The women there are trying to conceive as well, and can offer wonderful advice and support. They're a great group of girls.

Good luck, hon. I hope you stick around!

Anytime you are having unprotected sex (ttc) there is a possibility of pregnancy. They say that implantation bleeding is normally a few days before you expect your period, so it is a possibility. You stated that your bleeding did not last as long as normal. Was it any lighter/heavier than normal? Was it the same color/consistency that you normally have? Since you are ttc, have you taken any pregnancy tests?

yeah it was lighter than normal, Ive been having some pains in my pelvic area for the last 2 weeks or so. and ive been so tired, I've been having a lot of headaches, and some nausia, When i had my son, I had a blood pressure problem and I had him when i was only 31weeks pregnant. I know i need to get a hpt, but im really nervous its gonna be negative yet again, but this time has been a lot different then before.

If you're afraid of being disappointed, I would personally wait until you miss your next period. If it's late by more than a few days, go ahead and test. Getting negatives is horrible. Sad

I would suggest testing maybe on the 3rd or 4th if your period hasn't shown up.
