In August I had a full period. A short time after that, me and my husband had unprotected sex. We also had unprotected sex when I was ovulating (according to my nurse). It is to soon to tell if I pregnant. But I stay hungry and I'm really worn out (tired). I also have this motion sickness feeling. I went to the bathroom yesterday and when I wiped I saw a little blood (brownish color). What does this mean?? Am I pregnant??? Please help me, I'm a newlywed and don't know what to do. Thanks.

Last night I ate dinner about 7:30 or 8:00. By 10:30 I was hungry again. So I fixed me something to eat. I woke up this morning and I get this feeling like I need to throw up. But I go to the bathroom and I don't. I feel sick all day long. I am more tired than usual. What does this mean? I took a pregnancy test and I got no results, but the second window showed that I did it right. My husband wants me to take a test this weekend, is it to soon if I have had my period this month but I don't expect to come for another week????

In my first two trimesters with my son, I was unaware that I was pregnant because I had been having light bleeding. I had all the signs that I was pregnant, other than the light bleeding.
You very well could be pregnant but the only way to be sure it to have a pregnancy test done. Either see your doctor or buy a home pregnancy test. If you go the route of the home pregnancy test and it shows you're pregnant, see your doctor asap. He or she will want to confirm that home test result and then do some blood work to check that things are all ok.
Good luck!

It's possible, but highly unlikely. You'd have to have a very short menstrual cycle, which is the time from the first day of one period to the start of the next. This would bring the time of ovulation closer to the time when you are bleeding, especially if your period tends to last a long time.
Conception occurs when an egg and sperm meet in a fallopian tube. Sometime during the middle of a typical 28-day menstrual cycle, most likely between the 12th and 16th days, an egg reaches maturity in one of the two ovaries. The ovary releases the egg into the abdomen, where it's quickly sucked up by the tulip-shaped opening of the nearest fallopian tube.
An egg can survive in your fallopian tube for about 24 hours after it's released from the ovary. So the only way you can get pregnant is if sperm are present in your fallopian tube during this window of opportunity. If the egg isn't fertilised, it's shed along with your uterine lining during your period.
Typically, when you have your period, another egg is developing in preparation for release during the current cycle. But not every woman's cycle length is the same. Many women have a cycle that's about 28 days long, but some have cycles as short as 22 days long. If you have a short cycle, you could ovulate just a few days after you have your period. And considering that sperm can survive in your reproductive tract for up to three days, it's theoretically possible for it to hang around until you ovulate.
It's also possible to mistake breakthrough bleeding (spotting between your periods) for a regular period. In this way, you just might experience bleeding during your fertile time. (If you are experiencing bleeding between your periods, do tell your GP.)
The time that it takes for an egg to mature within the ovary can vary, so the actual day on which you ovulate can vary by several days. Some ovulation kits also base your "fertile time" on rising oestrogen levels rather than the peak of luteinising hormone, or LH, which is the actual trigger for egg release. In this case your "fertile time" may seem to start a little earlier in your cycle.

You might be pregnant and still have some spotting. I would wait a little and try another test. Some of the symptoms like hunger, tiredness and upset stomach can be psychological so dont use them as a real test.

Sounds like you could be. Have you missed a period yet? Wait until you are due for your next period and do a home pregnancy test

I think you are pregnant. Take a second opinion by buying a different brand of home pregnancy.
