Waiting to Know Can Be So Stressful
Posted: 03-29-07 21:44pm

I'm new to this forum and one of the main reasons why I decided to become a member is because of the terrible uncertainty I'm feeling.

The gist of my story is this.

My husband and I have been trying for a child for about 1 year and 9 months now with no success. We started seeing a gynae for almost a year now and all the checks indicate no medical problems.

I know when I'm getting my period (because there's always the tell-tale signs ) and each month over the past 1 yr 9 months has been a torture.

This month however, I did not experience the tell-tale signs. My last period was on 2nd march and about the time I believe was my ovulation time, my husband and I were on a nice little holiday to rekindle our romance from 10 years ago at the exact same place.

My period is due on 2nd April but normally 1 week before that comes I would already experience some faint green discharge. This month it didn't happen. In fact what happened was I experience an egg-white discharge on the 28th (came out like a blob). It looked like what comes out when you're ovulating and I have'nt felt dry over the last 2 days. I keep going to the toilet to check if my period has come.

I've been having a terrible flu and cough over the past 3 days and worry if this could have caused the discharge.

I believe it's too early to use a pregnancy test but this uncertainty is so stressful.

What should I do and is this discharge normal.

Good luck. The uncertainty is very difficult. You do seem very in tune with your dates. People on here can give you some support but will probably tell you to see your doctor. It's hard to really know what is going on...could it be pregnancy?? Don't know.

You usually have greenish discharge? That doesn't sound normal? The other discharge does sound quite normal. So, your doctor said you don't have an infection or anything? Did you mention the green discharge? Just curious about that.

Take care and good luck! Great to have you on here:)

if your periods are normally regular and you're sure you are due april 2nd (remember each month is not the same number of days, so you can't say it's due 2nd of every month) then from today a *first response early pregnancy test* should be accurate.

pink dye tests are far more accurate than blue dyes tests for the majority of the population.

Good Luck
