Could you be pregnant?

[Jbird]

Could you be pregnant even if you have been having VERY mild period pains for a week and a half, are a week late and there is no sign whatsoever of your period coming (apart from the light and intermitent pains)? Usually I get a period pain the day before or the day I start my period - this time there's nothing!

[B00]

Yes. That is assuming you've also been having sex as well?

[China Doll]

Have you had unprotected sex?

[Sqad]

Yepp.

[Jbird]

Yes - lots of sex in a long term relationship! We came off the pill in October and are letting nature take it's course. Since coming off the pill I have been regular as clockwork, but last month was five days late and like I said, this time I'm a week over, but still getting mild pains, so every so often am thinking I'm about to come on, but never do! I suspect now though that I have jinxed it and the period will start!!

You done a test yet? I thought my pains were period ones and kept thinking it would come. It never did and I was 5 weeks pregnant. 21 weeks now :-)

Goodluck and let us know x

Good luck hunni x

when the fertilised egg is attaching itself to the lining of your womb it can cause you to have slight pain - like mild period pain - i would do a test !!!!!

[tigwig]

Yes definitely. With my 2nd I was absolutely convinced my period was starting as I had every symptom going for several days, then it never came.

[Blue-Bird]

I would definietly do a test!!!

[smoochiegal]

I got period pains with both of my pregnancies it is correct, the baby is ataching itself to the lining of the womb xjx

It mayor may not be possible as its very difficult to say anything about it with just a handful of information. Its better if you could consult your doc instead of getting tensed.

[Jbird]

Thanks everyone for your comments. It would appear that I am, indeed 6 weeks pregnant!!
Worrying now though as I had to go to the doctor this morning - I started bleeding lighty last night. She has taken some blood and is sending me for a scan next week. Just hoping all will be ok

[anneasquith]

congratulations , good luck with your scan next week

[Hopkirk]

Excellent news!

Best of luck.

Hi everyone - here's the update. The scan showed no sign of pregnancy, although another wee-on-the-stick test with the nurse said I was. After spending the day in EPAC then being transferred by ambulance to the local Gyny hospital I have been told that one of 3 things in happening...... either, I am miscarrying, I am too early in the pregnancy for a scan to pick it up or I am in ectopic pregnancy.
More bloods being taken tomorrow to give us more idea. In the mean time, I am still bleeding, still suffering mild pains and playing a waiting game.
Yesterday was a truely horrible day and I can't get my head around any of it!!

[B00]

Awwww Jbird, fingers crossed for you.

[chelle7272]

I hope things work out well for your Jbird xx

[rockyracoon]

Ah Jbird, I'm sending good thoughts your way. Fingers crossed for you. x

[Jbird]

Thanks everyone. Sadly, after a long days wait, we found out yesterday that I had miscarried. Today is the first day that my body feels normal.
Emotionally, I feel ok now, although had alot of tears during the week. The whole experience seems so surreal - I can't believe that any of it happened.

oh I am very sorry to hear that xx
