I havent missed a period but was experienceing some pregnancy symptons nausea and throwing up,very tired, lightheadiness,dizzy, sore boobs(they feel like the weigh a ton), very moody and irratable, peeing alot, heart burn and some smells make me nausea. So i took two prego test and the first one came out negative but developed a faint blue line. So i waited 3 days nd tested again it came out positive almost right away but it disapeared. So now i dnt know what to do. Did i test to early. Its been about 8 days since my last period and im still having light cramping like am going to get my period any day now but it comes and goes and i feel it in my lower back and around my belly button sometimes. if i am pregnant it would be my first one so its a little confusing so any advice would be great. Thank you..

Susan,
If responding to this comment call me jpp otherwise I fear I could get lost with all the other anon's on here (lol). Anyway, I had sex on 2-2 (pulled out & unprotected) and on 2-3 (didn't pull out & unprotected). A few days later I started spotting, which on the second day attempted to turn into a somewhat steady flow only to turn back into brown/pink spotting by day 3 and by day 4 I stopped spotting. A normal period for me consists of 5-7 days of mostly heavy bleeding and passing many clots along with heavy cramping. It has now been 10/11 days since I had sex (depending on which day you count from). I have been experiencing nausea off and on with some days worse than others, fatigue, craving carbs and salty foods, gas, irritability, (apparently forgetfulness as my brain just went completely blank trying to think of my other symptoms (lol!)). Anyway, the most recent additions the past, ohhh, two days or so have been mild cramping, more so it seems currently on my left side, and headaches. What are my odds of being pregnant, and when should I take a test?

Hi just wanting some advice. I have a 4 month old little boy and think I'm pregnant again because my period was 10 days late along with pregnan.cy symptoms i have taken about 10 pregnancy test and all show neg then turn faint positive the next day. The funny thing is this is what happened when i was pregnant with my son i took a test cause i was 10 days late and come back neg then the next month i missed my period and it turned out i was pregnant the month before when i getting negatives. So the question is I've taken heaps if test and all are neg then turn lite positive could it be pregnancy or evaporation line

I started my period on Saturday the 5th and I just got off of it on Tuesday the 8th around midnight. Usually my period only last 5 to 7 days but this time it only last 3 days could I be pregant and still have cramps all around my belly. I have been feeling nausua, very tired, a little weak, always eating, can not sleep very well at night, I go to the bathroom to pee alot like every 1 to 3 hours a day. Is there a chance that I might be pregant. If so please tell me what is going on with my body. I am also on birth control pills but I hear some people say you can get pregant while on the pill.

This was my first cycle on Clomid. I ovulated on December 23rd. I was expecting AF on January 6th (today is January 7th), but started having milky white discharge 7DPO, and then light pinkish-brown discharge 12DPO, which became a heavy bleed with one small clot 13DPO, and faded back to just being light reddish brown when I wiped on 14DPO and now, today, it's barely there. Today is 15DPO. I was supposed to call my RE to let her know if I whether or not I had a period sometime today or tomorrow. I don't know what to tell her, though, because a typical period for me is 7-10 days, and heavy with lots of clots throughout. When we did my mid-cycle ultrasound, we discovered that my endometrium was exceptionally thick, so the likelihood of my period being condensed down to one day seems very unlikely to me. In addition, I have sore breasts, and I have been cramping since 6DPO... continuing even now, after my "period." I feel like I should take an HPT sometime this week, just to make sure, but the realistic side of me thinks I'm just prolonging the inevitable BFN. Any ideas on where I go from here? Anyone on Clomid that can tell me if what I'm experiencing is normal?

Creamps that long before your period, and brown discharge (Tail end brown bleeding) can both be indications of low progesterone. You would need blood tests - usually 7 days after ovulation to confirm that. It would be an issue if you were trying to get pregnant, as low progesterone can cause miscarriage.
