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..

Ok so I had my period but it was heavy and only lasted two days, then I was still continuing to have cramps like I was on my period but I wasnt. I am also having headaches, stomach cramps, it hurts my stomach when my two year old lays his head on my stomach, nausea, I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative. Any ideas?

The last time I had sex was on the 28th June, and my period was from the 22nd-27th. We used protection and I'm pretty sure it was fine. My average cycle is around 33 days but I didn't get a period all of July, it came the 1st-5th Aug, making it a 40 day cycle and a week late. The period was at normal length but was a bit lighter than usual. I was obviously paranoid back then and did around 7 urine pregnancy tests, all of which were negative. I also got a blood test done around the 20th August, will that have been accurate at that stage btw?? I then got my period on the 28th August and obviously tht was like my Sept period. I then got it October and November, but November was medium flow but lighter than what I expect. I was obviously expecting my December period, for it to be 2 weeks late and my cycle length was at 44 days. This caused concern due to the late period in July. A week before my December period came, I went to see the doctor and he said I wasn't pregnant as I'd be showing and have symptoms and movement etc and felt my stomach and said it was fine without doing a test. So I bought two home tests which came back negative. My period was again, normal length but lighter than usual so this freaked me out and I got another two tests which were negative, one of them I did yesterday. However, I have panicked as I've been looking online and read many stories in which women didn't know they were pregnant until 7/8 months or even until they went in to labour as they ha negative tests and bleeds throughout which I guess mimic periods. I'm just freaking out and keep thinking my tummy is hard and round and, lower back ache my breasts hurt when deep down, I guess I kind of know they're not but when you panic you look for more symptoms. So I was wondering is it actually likely I am pregnant or have I just worried myself?! I'm 21, NOT ttc as I am in my final year at university.

Hi, my boyfriend and I have recently been trying to get pregnant. I had a strange period this month (it came 2-3 days early) that last about four days total I spotted the first day and it gradually started to pick up. The next day I woke up ut wasn't heavy but it was enough for me to know I was on a period. Period ended Saturday night, Sunday I spotted some more. I took a Hpt and it came out negative. Now for two days I been having Cramps. It shifts from sides and feel it in my uterus. I use a menstrual cycle app on my phone to keep track of my period and according to the app we had sex the day after I ovulated. (It was about 1am) could I b pregnant?! I have an appointment with a gynecologist soon but I'm still curious

My breasts get tender a week before this time it was two weeks before and i had a regular period as i think it was, my periods usually come on the 18th of every month well around there this time is was on the 25th. Now its being nearly over a week and my breasts are still sore and tender and get a real sharp pain on the left of my breast which feels like my chest and i am having cramps which keep coming and going for the past few days?

Hi There,
I have very irregular periods. The latest it had ever been was Day 36 in my cycle. This month I got what I think is a period on Day 41 (October 7th). Period was a lot lighter than normal, but lasted 7 days. Starting 2 or 3 days after the bleeding ended I started getting cramps and becoming really nauseous at random times of the day. I'm sleeping a lot, moody, getting headaches etc. Also getting a lot of yellowish/whitish discharge. Not sure what all this could mean. If you have any insight that would be great! I've been trying to get pregnant since March. Highly doubt this is pregnancy but you never know!
Susan if you respond you can call me confusedgal!
Thanks so much
