Hello: I don't know if this is the right forum, but here's hoping it is.

I have been trying to get pregnant for about 18 months. I won't bore you with the history, but right now I am on my 7th day of a missed period. In other words, it should have come on April 6th. I have never been this late, and so now as you can imagine I am wondering what all these pings and pangs really mean (not that I haven't felt them before, but not at this level)

I had a P test on Friday as I was weeing all day Friday and felt absolutely trashed. Plus I had a strange burning sensation right at the front. The test was neither positive nor negative: the line was very very faint. The doctor told me she thought - from all my other signs - that I was P but wants me to go and get a blood test on Monday when the levels will be higher and more detectable.

It is Sunday now, and even though I have had spotting on and off last week (not every day and never more that the size of a 5 cent peice, and not possibly a period) today's spotting - dark red - has come with some deeper pains, almost like p pains but a bitmore frontal, and like electricity, jabbing. The blood is also a bit more, but only when wiping, not flowing.And, about the size of a 20cent coin. Still not enough for a period.

I am wondering what this pain is, and if I am getting my period. Could I be Pregs and be having a miscarriage? Are you supposed to feel lots of pain with a m/c or little? Isn't spotting normally around the day of a missed period, not a week after? I am a little concerned. I have to not get my hopes up. (thanks for listening)
