I've had ds but still am a bit dim when it comes to this

I think I;m pregnant - but don't know if I'm just being hopeful.

My period is 2 weeks late, and we have been trying. Plus my boobs hurt and I am completely exhausted all the time.

I have been weeing all the time as well

But I have been having period type pains, though mild and a tiny amount of blood when wiping (pinkish and not enough to leave mark on sanitary towel).

I haven't tested as I don't want to until I am sure. Also last time I had definate symptoms and tested (faint positive) soon after I had a very heavy painful period. I would prefer not to know and assume I was wrong if it happened again (IYSWIM), however illogical that seems.

Also with ds I had very definate symptoms from the date of conception (such as bad nausea for a couple of weeks) and I haven't had anything like that.

Am I deluding myself? Is there another explanation that could cover all this? Or is it possible.

both times i've been pregnant, i've waited ages to test- think it's subconscious knowledge that you are up the duff but obvious fear in case tis not true.

gah plucked up teh courage to do a test.

The line thingy that tells you if the test has worked showed it didn't work.

Every fricking time.

How can I mess up weeing on a stick

I need to get more but won't be for a few days.

Still bleeding lightly but no period pains.

I think with most tests you can pee in something and dip the stick in, as opposed to try and aim. Get the biggest bucket you can find ;)

will try and do that then. Thanks

Is a bit difficult wihtout letting either ds (4yo adn nosy) or lodger knowing.

The bleeding is worrying me though.

it's light i.e. only when I wipe - not making a mark on a sanitary towel.

Has been going on since friday though.

thanks - I think I am over obsessing a bit a mo.

I am going to take a step back and try to concentrate on something else for a while.

I've promised to take ds out for day and am going to do that instead.

thanks for the support

Tues - ds refused to leave the house in hte end. Texted bf who came over in the afternoon. Intermittant heavy bleeding (would stop completely for a couple of hours and then start again). Much pain/dizzyness/shaking/nausea.

Weds - dp at home so that was good. Unbelieveable amounts of pain and cramping, painkillers not really even touching it - was awful. Intermittant heavy bleeding again.

I don't think there's any chance now. The pain is dying down, but still bleeding.

mummy2t sorry to hear you are going through same thing.
