So, my fiance talked me into having a preg test on my 17th bday..uhh on Dec. 15, so i did and it tested positive. well, i didnt believe it at first, so i took another one..once again, it was positive. Lately for the past week or so. I've been having these cramps. But no period. So, im guessing i've been pregnant for about 2 and a half to 3 weeks. Is it normal to hurt that bad? It's quit for a while now tho. Also I have this CRAZY appetite lol. I used to hardly eat anything, now im eating 24/7 and i've spent allmy fiance's money on food lol. Also my breasts are tender and sore, and my tummi is tender...is it possible to be pregnant now, and uhh if it is...is it normal for all this stuff to happen ? lol..

I took a generic Dollar store prgnancy test 3 days after my missed period. I did not urinate a lot (only about a tablespoon, if that). I urinated into a collection cup and used the enclosed dropper to drop the required 4 drops of urine into the test. It was negative. Is there a chance that the test read negative because I urinated only a little bit?

I've been charting CM for a few months but rarely check my cervix. We BD'd on a friday and tested + for OV on Sunday (the test stick turned pink immediately and the line was there as big as you please, so it's possible I really began ov sometime Sat. night...I checked later that evening and it took a few minutes, but still showed a faint line as I watched the pink crawl up the stick) Anyways, it's possible I'm pregnant but I'm not due yet, so haven't tested. I thought I'd check my cervix this morning...any time I've checked, it's been pretty high...this morning it feels very low, very hard, and extremely towards the back. I know my uterus is tilted but didn't think my cervix would be quite like that! For the record, there's nothing else I could be feeling, is there? It just freaked me out a bit!! What does the start of a prolapse feel like? Don't just tell me to see the doctor because I am going in a couple weeks anyways as I'm due a pap...Just wanted a few opinions.

Real answers only

I am trying to fall pegnant, is it good enough to just go by vaginal mucus or should I get one of those ovulation predicters from the chemist. I seem to have the mucus a week to ten days after my period for about 4 or 5 days, and that is when I try to have sex...usually at the first sign of it. Has anyone else just used this method?

My last period began on Oct.27.I had absolutely no period or spotting during Nov. My husband only ejaculated inside of me on Nov.27 and Dec.2. I am usually irregular with my periods to where they often come 1-3 weeks late. I was also told by my OBGYN that I take longer than usual to ovulate.I took a pregnancy test on Dec.10, and it showed no results making the test innaccurate.I took another one the following day (from the same box) and that one was negative.I took another test on Dec.16, and that one,along the the other 2 that followed,were all 3 positive.I had a miscarriage about 5 years ago, so I requested an immediate ultrasound to make sure everything was okay this time.Unfortunately, they found nothing but cysts and my uterus seemed to be growing.My pregnancy test was positive again w/ the Dc though.The DC. suggested I may be less than 7 weeks due to my irragularity, & thats why they can't see anything yet. How far along am I then & should I be concerned about the cysts?

Here's the deal...my LMP began 11/17 and I'm quite sure I ovulated Dec 4 or 5 (and had intercourse several times btwn the 2nd and 7th). I have spotted with intercourse each time since then (this has never happened before). My cycle is not completely regular and usually 30 -32 days. So my period is due any day now. I am 29 and have never been pregnant (married 6 1/2 years and this is our first month trying). For the past 7-10 days my breasts hurt SO BAD...I know I am not imagining this...When I take my bra off at night they feel like they weigh 20 pounds a piece and are going to hit the floor! I cannot sleep well without my bra "holding them up" because the pain is so bad....What do you think??? I am an NP, but I've never been pregnant, so this is wierd for me to be asking these questions!

I have two boys already... I know that I cant make it totally happen for sure but I want to at least attempt it. This is my last shot at a girl! So I would love input. Im thinking about taking a couple of months when I stop taking birth control and buying ovulation tests for each month and finding out which day I ovulate or an estimate. So when I want to start trying, I can do it like three days before I ovulate to give me a better chance of the girl sperm making it to the egg. Has anyone tried anything else and it worked?

Is it still possible that I could be pregnant?

I have heard some woman can present HGC (to detect pregnancy), later than a day of a missed period, which means they are worried that they are pregnant (like me) get a blood test (the day of there missed period) and HGC is not present till they have missed there period for like a week.

Is this True?

My HGC levels are <2hgc, two weeks after ovulation, but some womans surge later. Why is this?. Could I be one of those woman.

I need some information regarding pregnant woman of which HGC levels aren't detected in there pregnancy till later.

My doctor was't much help... has this happened to anyone?.

I have noticed that my breasts are very sensitive especially the nipples. The area around my nipple is slightly darker than usual. I am having some tugging sensations behind my bellybutton and what feels like little twinges here and there. I have two very visable blue veins on my left breast that werent there before. According to my chart i am almost 10 days past ovulation with temps staying above coverline. Could this be pre-period symptoms or are my chances of getting my second baby for Christmas looking good?? I am not due to start til Thursday and I am not going to test at all before then because i don't want to get my hopes up but i would like some insight from some of you on this. Thanks
