Menstrual bleeding means you do not have a viable pregnancy.

hi, my name is Jackie... i need to know if i could possibly be pregnant.
May 28, 2009 - 1:17pmi had my last period on april 27th, and i was supposed to start on may 24th.
i was 4 days late on my period and i dont know if i started or not...i just started bleeding today but its not a lot of blood like a normal period its just a little bit.
ive been having cramps for the past 3 weeks and that usually doesnt happen until about a week before i start my period.
i took a pregnancy test about a week ago and it came out negative...maybe that was to early...?
ive been getting headaches every once ina while....like once or twice a week but nothing to serious.
please comment back and help me find out whats going on...thank you!

Hi Jackie,
I am coping/pasting your question into it's own separate ASK question, since it is unrelated to the original post. You can look for your question and any responses here.
Thanks,

Chrissy, thank you for coming back to update us!! You're right, that was a very late period. Turns out that you know your body and you knew to be patient. Good for you.
That was quite a few days when you were thinking you were, however. I imagine that your period might have been both welcome and unwelcome. When we spend that many days thinking about how life will change with a baby around, it's often bittersweet to learn it won't be happening (even if the thought was a surprise at first). I hope you're doing well, and take care. And be sure to let us know if we can help with anything else.

Hello Diane,
I'm really thankful to have come across this because I've been experiencing the same symptoms, and I'd really like to get some wise advice from you (:
I realize this is a little late compared to when this happened and ended, but I sincerely hope you can help me.
The only difference that I have to chrissy's situation is that I had unprotected (shortlived and no ejaculation), took Next Choice 36~48 hours later, and I was on a plane for 12 hours last week; I've recently just gotten over my jetlag.
There's another complication, though (as if it wasn't enough!): I had to take Next Choice the month before as well, so I don't know where my cycle lies anymore. I tend to be irregular, but typically have 29~35 day cycles.
If I am waiting for my period/worried about a pregnancy, what do you recommend? Should I take a test immediately, or wait another week? So far I have been expecting a period near the day of last month's because of the pill, but I don't know if that's the right thing to do.
I would greatly appreciate the help, so please let me know!
Much thanks.

Chrissy, I too am amazed at your patience! Especially since by my count you'd be on Day 42, and if you wait another week, you'll be close to day 50. (Two complete normal cycles would just be 56 days).
The only reason you'd want to find out sooner is so that if you are pregnant, you can get started on prenatal care as soon as possible. And yes, your doctor will prescribe prenatal vitamins, which help the developing baby. When you are pregnant, you need more nutrients, and the baby needs such things as iron, calcium and folic acid in his or her development. Here's a good page on prenatal vitamins:

Hello alison,
March 26, 2009 - 12:50pmI have not yet taken another test since a week and half ago. I didnt want to buy another one and it say no because it might have been to early. So i was going to wait another week and then i was going to see what it said.

Chrissy,
You have more restraint than I do, that's for sure! :-)
If you are pregnant, and do not want to find out yet, be sure that your daily vitamin has at least 400mcg (micrograms) of folic acid, just in case!
Best wishes,
