Am I pregnant? You be the judge….?

Q: OPEN MINDED PEOPLE PLEASE!I’m 27. I normally have a cycle of 26 days. I’m not sure if I’m pregnant, but here are my symptoms……I have been feeling really wet when I should be feeling very dry before a period (right?). My period was supposed to come on the 7th (tuesday), although web pages say the 8th.I took a HPT on the 9th (thursday) and it was negative. Later that night, I saw a brown spotting when I wiped after using the bathroom. That was the first time I saw this. I thought my period was here.However….The next day (friday), all day, I saw nothing. The only thing I saw when I wiped was two very, very, VERY tiny brown SPOTS. Just two very little dots (like a pen dot) on the toilet paper. It looked like tissue or a very tiny part of a blood clot, and it was brown. Very weird.Still, I thought my period was coming and went about my day. But it didnt show up all day. Finally that afternoon (yesterday) I went to my doctor so he can send me to a lab for blood work and get a pregnancy test done, which will be done on monday (tomorrow)Last night I didnt sleep at all. I went to the bathroom at 6am and when I wiped, I saw bright red. I thought my period was here. I put on a pad and went to sleep.When I woke up a few hours later at 12:30pm-ish (today), I went to the bathroom, and again I saw nothing. I went to the bathroom at 3:00pm and saw NOTHING!! I keep checking myself and nothing is there. Sometimes I’ll see a clear white kind of discharge (very little) when I wipe, or the two tiny brown spots, but still no period.The other day and today I even went as far as checking to see if my cervix is hard and low. I’ve read that before a period, thats where it should be. Well, its not as low as it normally would be before a period (I’ve done this in the past). Nor is it as hard as it should be. Its hard, but there is some softness to it. Hard to explain. I’ve felt it be a lot harder before my period came, and its not as hard as that.Anyways….I’ve had tingly/itch breasts and nipples for a week or more. Two people at different times have said they look bigger. I’m gassy. I’ll crave something but after I’m done cooking it I dont want it anymore. It just seems “gross” to eat, like….why the hell did I want this?I feel little “flutters” in my stomach on the right side which I think could be from gas cause I’m pretty positive its way to early to feel movement….but I dont fart or burp after the flutters.I dunno, just really weird things are going on.My last period was september 12th. It was not like any other period I had. It was deep red, very watery and lasted 5 days and not the normal 4.The period before that was august 18th, it ended on the 22nd and it was a normal period. My fiance and I had sex on the 27th (9 days after my period started, 5 days after it ended)….which was just two or three days before ovulation (supposedly) and sperm can live in a female for 5 days.However, we used the “pull-out” method.We have tried to get pregnant before (for a long time) without any protection, no pulling out, no nothing….but we had no luck. He had an injury when he was little so we thought maybe he had a low sperm count. We just kinda “gave up”…..trying, but not trying.Well anyways, here it is, october 11th and I am 4 days late. I’m wondering if that bright red blood this morning was implantation bleeding. I dont feel pregnant and my HPT was negative. But I have the tingly breasts and the weird spotting.With my son, I knew I was pregnant right away. I didnt even need a test. My only sign was that I would wake up feeling sick to my stomach for an hour, and then it went away. And it only lasted a week.I know you guys are not doctors, but I could really use the advice from anyone who can help. Does it sound like I’m pregnant? I hope so!*fingers, toes, arms, legs and eyes are crossed* lolI’m not stressed, I’m a SAHM. How stressed can I be? lol. My daily routine is pretty much the same. I hang out with my son. I make him stuff to eat when hes hungry, we go to the park. I wouldnt say I’m stressed.I have not changed anything in my diet. I still eat the same things (good and bad) that I’ve always been eating.Please keep in mind, I NEVER GET ANY SIGNS THAT MY PERIOD IS ON ITS WAY!!!Normally I wake up and its there, or I go to the bathroom and its there. Spotting, but not as light as this. I dont even get cramps while I have my period. The last time I got a cramp I was 14 lol.

A: you could be, it seems 50-50

Pregnancy has made me self conscious?

Q: I’m positing this in newborn and baby because I think people who have already had a child may be able to give me better advice….So I’m 28 weeks pregnant. I am not feeling all that hot. I feel like a huge whale. I love my daughter and I cannot wait to meet her, but I am hating my pregnant body. I’ve gained 40 pounds…I’m breaking out…I fart when I don’t mean to…I’m not working so I feel as if I have no purpose. I hate being a housewife. I know that last part seems harsh but working was a real self esteem booster because I had a job. Now I know I have a purpose with my daughter, but having a job is a different kind of fulfillment. Before I got pregnant I was working and getting ready to go back to school. Now I feel like my life is on hold. It’s really hard to explain…I don’t know if I will still feel this way when she is born? I really hope not. I feel like thinking these things makes me a bad mother because my life should revolve around my daughter regardless of my wants and needs.My marriage has been through some rocky points. I am completely disinterested in sex. This has resulted in my husband checking out other girls in front of me and just recently he decided (without asking me) that he was going to a beer pong party. He invited me to go but seriously…I am 28 weeks pregnant…why the hell would I want to go hang out with a bunch of drunk 20 somethings who are loud and obnoxious? We are a younger couple, if you couldn’t tell by now. My husband is kind of immature. He has horrible communication skills. He demands the spotlight a lot and I’m worried that when my daughter gets here that he will resent her somehow because I will pay more attention to her. He was already upset when I told him that I loved her more than him. He is in the army and will be deploying a month after she is born. So I will be by myself with my daughter for the first year or so of her life. Do you think his attitude will change once she is born? Do you think him being away will make him realize what he has or do you think that it just wont matter?

A: Ok first of all, congratulations on your baby girl! Its a wondeful thing. She will bring you a lot of joy!And although now u may feel like the worst peron in the world in terms of thinking about what u may miss out on or physically feeling like you are not ‘hot’ this is all hormones, and remember- in the end u are an inidividual person with your own wants and needs besides your natural instincts of being a mother.You can always go back to school or work later. and this is meant to be for u now. And i believe your husband will miss u and your little girl SO much while he is away that he will change hugely. And about your man checking out others, men always do this. Does not mean he doesn’t love u or think your hot. Its just their nature. U just see this more because u feel insecure. And being that your pregnant he may just be a little scared too. he asked u to go to the party because he cares for u and wants u to have fun- he didn’t ask to make u feel bad. guys just don’t get it sometimes and don’t understand how being pregnant effects you.i say talk to him and tell him how u feel.hope this helps…and makes sense lolgood luck with your pregnancy.

Breast changes causes concern, a bit long but a bit unique?

Q: Yesterday morning right at the beginning of our sexual intercourse my husband said I had brown blood. It was there inside of me but it isn’t much and it isn’t dropping down and it was gross feeling So I cleaned it out inside of me. I had it all day and still again today. My period is due in five to seven days.Now my breast feel different too. I am very large breasted I normally have a perky firm pair of H cups (they are pretty much all glands) and they get knotted up and I have to put warm compresses on them and massage the knot out. Well now I measured and they are an inch bigger around the bust, and they are soft and my aereola is softer and isn’t holding it’s usual shape (my breast shape is different now too) it is soft and is kinda coned out, it is a bit pinker, and the veins are showing up more too, they are really soft they seem kinda like my cervix area when I am bloated on period really soft and squishy. And last night they felt soo good. I just left my bra and top off and played with them all night and my nipples felt amazing to the touch.I didn’t think anything of it until my husband started to get paranoid about the brown blood(which never happens to me ever, my cycle is really set in stone, it is always three and a half days and very light and on the second period pill of my pack of pills) and because I wanted “weird food” just because I insisted on veggie pizza and It was really really good even though I can’t stand bell peppers. And now it is making me wonder if this might just be a “big hormone fart” where my hormones just go crazy or maybe I might be pregnant. Because there was one night about a week and a half ago that I took the pill a day late because it got left at my sisters house and I think it was put off late twice for like two hours because we were having sex and I decided not to interrupt sex for the pill so I took it later. We do have sex on a regular basis, about once a day at least and multiple times a day on weekends if nobody comes over to visit us.So could it be a “big hormone fart” or could my husband be right about pregnancy. His lady boss at work says if your breast are really big like mine then your breast don’t always hurt when your in your early pregnancy because they don’t have to change much, so if that is true that would make sense why they don’t hurt and they are just more sensitive and feel good. I plan on waiting seven days and then taking a test, but what does it sound like to you?

A: I think you should take a pregnancy test. It is very likely that you could be pregnant. But it is also possible that it could be a hormone imbalance.If you get a negative reading on a pregnancy test, see your doctor and get your hormones checked
