hey im caz im 16 years old and i think i might be pregnant.
the last period i had was on the 28th May 2009 and i had sex for the first time on the 22 of June. im sorry if this is going to be too much detail but i really need some help. when i had sex we used a condom but the guy didnt cum inside of me. and after wiping the cum off of myself i noticed that my vagina felt a bit weird and i thought i might be bleeding so i put my hand down there and felt around and noticed that i wasnt bleeding but i did put my fingers with cum on them inside of me. i have been feeling really sick lately, always need to go to the bathroom and feel really really tired, also just generally around my stomach and stuff just feels weird. im 6 days late on my period but their not normally very regular so i dont know. im bleeding a bit today but its not like normal period blood its a dark brown and there doesnt seem to be anywhere near as much as there should be. im really really worried and im wondering if anyone can give me a sure fire way of knowing if i am pregnant ? i havent taken a pregnancy test yet and i know that they arent always right. please please help if you can. and im sorry if that was too much detail. :/

Hi, I'm Angel.
I had my last regular period with cramping and everything starting on March 20.
On April 1 I had sex with my boyfriend. (We actually broke up the next day.)
Soon after, I started having pregnancy symptoms.
I was nauseous, sometimes to the point of not wanting to eat anything. Tired all the time, sore boobs, I went up a cup size,I was peeing every hour, I was ravenously hungry, I was constipated, I had heartburn, and I was two weeks late.
On April 24th, I took two pregnancy tests. One came out positive, and I was too excited to check the other one. When I checked it a couple hours later, it had a postitive, and I know results after a certain point are unreliable.
Anyway, a couple hours later, I started bleeding, period like bleeding. The only difference is it was light, and I had no cramps (I usually have cramps.) It lasted only two days.
That Monday, I went to the obgyn. I took a urine test there, and it came out negative. Now the thing is, to get the positive on the other test, I had to use the first mornings urine and wait a couple of minutes. The test at the doctors was like the 5th time I had gone that morning, and I hadn't thought about it and went before I left, so I wasn't able to pee much. (Sorry if tmi). The nurse also only waited a minute to check it.

Anyways, after that, I was too scared to ask for a blood test.
I've bled every month since that. It's period like bleeding, except it's lighter, shorter, and I have had NO cramps whatosever, which is weird for me.

At what would of been about 12 weeks, most of the symptoms went away, except I'm still hungry, and tired.

I again had sex with my ex around May 24.

Lately, I've been nauseous again. I've been incredibly tired. And today, I was seriously going to the bathroom every hour. I've been very hungry again. I've been incredibly moody.

I've been gaining weight, and I've been bloated. I'm overweight as it is, but I swear my belly has been swelling up.

I'm going to take another pregnancy test tomorrow, but I was just wondering, what do you think the chance I'm pregnant is? Do you have your own personal stories to share?

Thanks,
Angel

if you were to do a test now at any time of day you should still get a positive. I think the doctors is the only way to resolve this. or get some more home tests. But i do reccomend you see your gp or ob/gyn.

How long does bleeding continues during pregnancy?
If it continues for only 5 days as during periods, does that mean a woman is not pregnant? What is the difference in the bleeding during pregnancy and during normal menstrual cycle?

i think the length of bleeding/spotting during pregnancy is a very individual thing hun.
Also i think it depends if you have had a positive pregnancy test?

Hey guys, i'm new to this..

Im apprently pregnant with baby number 2... I say apparently because a blood test came back positive, urine test negative. I was due for my period 5 days ago and started bleeding this morning so i really don't know what's going on. It feels like period pain and quite heavy but no clots or anything. I'd only b about 5 weeks pregnant. Called my doc but he wont b in till 2.30pm.. so i'm really worried and don't know what's goin on. Has anyone experienced this?

**Ladylove** · July 13th, 2011, 05:12 PM

I haven't bled in my pg so far (I'm 9.5 weeks) but I know someone who recently announced her pregnancy - she's just over 12 weeks now but she said she thought she lost it at 2 weeks because she bled HEAPS and put it down to a miscarriage. But more weeks went on and she was still getting symptoms and a dr test proved she was still pregnant and bubs was healthy and growing!

So just a little joyful story for all of you who are fretting.

Hi everyone
This is my first post on this forum. I recently discovered I was 3 weeks pregnant last monday only to discover 2 days later that I started bleeding. This is my first pregnancy and we only started trying 2 months ago. At first the discharge was brown then on the 7th day of the same, I went to the toilet and discharged bright red blood and a clot. I was obviously very worried & I am really uneducated when it comes to all things baby. I booked into the doc the next day and she took my hormone levels (came in at 35,000) and I went off to get an internal ultrasound (not fun!) which they saw nothing. Had my levels done since & they came in at 41,500 so still looking ok. I cant help but worry though - I am still getting brown discharge every day and its freaking me out. Im worried about it I feel like I am in limbo - I know I need to keep positive but on top of having morning sickness its really hard. Its a whole new thing for me to grasp.

Any advice?
Thank you
Cassandra

Littlelove, sending you even more hugs

Back here again, urgh.

Only had slight spotting early in this pregnancy and thought we would be all good, but this morning (at 14.5 weeks) got bleeding again. i had it numerous times with my DD and know it can still be ok, but it still sucks sucks sucks. Had plans for today but chilling on the couch hoping it will settle down again.

Wondering if i ring my midwife or dr or someone but really can't be bothered unless they can tell me everything is fine ...

thankfully, my DD is in a great mood and is amusing me with her silliness.

we prob should have a shower and get dressed for the day.

anyway, think good thoughts if you can.

**tellytubby** · July 21st, 2011, 11:57 AM

Hey hotI.

sorry you're back here. I remember I had spotting with my dd after a night of nookie? Hope it stops soon, rest up xo

**HotI** · July 21st, 2011, 12:34 PM

Thanks TT. It would be nice if it was due to nooky, but no such luck.

Hope you are doing ok too

**tellytubby** · July 21st, 2011, 08:48 PM

Has it eased up?? Maybe a trip to the ED might put your mind at rest? The portable ultrasound machine, or the doppler?? I know its a pain having to wait, but it might be worth it. Can't wait till you begin to feel some nice, regular kicks, they're a sigh of relief

thanks for the love too x

**HotI** · July 22nd, 2011, 12:18 PM

It settled again yesterday. I had an appt this morning anyway, and they found bubs heartbeat, which was lovely. Slight spotting again now, but i'm not too worried, just annoyed.

Will feel much more secure when i can feel movements.
