Is it possible to be still pregnant after a period?

Hello I thought I might be pregnant last week, then I bled and thought it was an implantation bleed then I thought I was having a m/c as it was 5 days before my period was due and I was bleeding. I really thought I was pregnant because my boobs wer so sore and sensitive which they never are normally around periods, I was weeing every minute too and I felt more tired. Which I know can be signs of periods too.
It is now six days and I still have small shows of blood. I am constipated and feel queasy.

Could I be pregnant, even after bleeding days? Maybe it was not a period or a m/c maybe it was a long implantation bleed??? Is this possible or am I just driving myself mad?

lol, well it will be cos we both have to work still monday- weds then I can come on whilst he's asleep, althou if I am, and he's not he's developed a nasty habit of poking me in th ear to wake me up, and then sits there talking away to me - it's quiet sad really when u can't wait for the other person to wake up so u can talk to them! althou on those day's he brings me brekkie in bed so it's not all bad! after 6 months I just want sex tbh! (well he came home ofr 2 weeks at jan) but I just want the sex don't care about much else really!

no!

i think i am going to wait a couple of months and get as healthy as i can, i have been ill for most of this year so I am not feeling my best anyway. plus i only started up my business so i should really be concentrating on that, but i hope by the end of summer that i will be pregnant. please god!!!

i just dont want to try too hard just incase it does not work, if i feel this low without trying, what will it be like when i do???

a couple of years back i never knew what the term broody felt like, but i do now... makes me feel slightly insane, my dh laughs at me sometimes!

are you trying as we speak, if you are i have everything crossed for you, although i shouldnt cross everything incase i ruin my chances! - only joking

no worries hon, I forgot to mentio u have two lines with them, r u going to start TTC now?

wild · 14/04/2005 13:31

so sorry
know just how you feel
I didn't realise how much I wanted another child until I saw the empty window
plus an explanation for all the tiredness, getting out of breath at gym, having a tight feeling in tummy, huge boobs etc
Keep trying?

hello

just put on other thread that it must be negative, i cant handle this anymore my heart was going mad for those few minutes, no baby inside, i am just one big mess with headaches, hunger, sore boobs, over emotional and constipation - pregnancy would have made it all worth it!!!

ah well...

Munz - thank you for the test and sorry I wasted it.

the suspense!
You had me on this, I was in tescos loo last night doing test, despite period I feel v hungry and pregnant
But negative, so just greed in my case
Will look on other thread to see how you got on
Do you know in tescos they sell the tests in special alarmed boxes, I guess they must've had people lifting them?!

HappyMumOfOne · 14/04/2005 13:15

Munz -

Thanks got the test - are you around???

I was going to do it now, if you are not and anyone else knows. I have a On Call early detection test, can it has two windows one is round and the other a funny shape, I guess one window tells you it is working and the other your pregnant, so if just window has a result its a neg right???

I am going to go do it now...

Back in a mo!

I havent done a test, no, as I dont suppose I am pg but but would be great if I was. It may just be wishful thinking. Cant get rid of this headache though, had it for 4 days now just over the eye. I may do a test in a few days and see but just know I am probably wishing too much.

Hello

I didnt mention that with my first dd I did not realise I was pregnant until about 7 weeks as I had a period but which was lighter than normal but did not think anything of it and it was only when my next period did not turn up did I check and then found out, I made a docs app who confirmed I was 8 weeks when she done an internal - yuck!

So I know it can happen but this time my period was heavier... so it would be interesting to hear from anyone who was pregnant and still had a heavy period in the early stages.

I will find out tomorrow when I get the test off generous munz. I am so hungry all the time, if I am not then I wonder what has brought in this incredible hunger.

Worriedbev - I hope you get the result you want. Every month i think im pregnant and end up feeling silly. My partner and I do not go all the way anyway but he is slow with the withdrawl method, we are supposed to really go for it and try in the summer.

wb - have u tested just to see

Worriedbev · 13/04/2005 15:24

Hi I feel the same.

I had a period just like a normal period, but still dont feel well. My stomach is so blown out, it would be day 6 now of cycle, clothes are so tight I can hardly move in my trousers today and tummy hurts like sharp pains shooting through. I feel so tired and have had a headache for 3 days. Surely you cant still have a normal period and be pg can you? I am referring to people in general here, not just me. Seriously, is it known to happen because I feel like I could be, my eyes feel so heavy and I just feel generally blown out. Any advice please?

Bev

kid · 13/04/2005 14:35

As far as I know, you can send in a sample for the Dr to test and call back at the end of the day to get the result. That way, you don't need to use up a Dr Appt and still get a free test!

munz · 12/04/2005 21:04

PG tests v cheap

(i've got a stock of them building up now! I don't mind spending out and wasting cheap ones if they're BFN's.)

munz · 12/04/2005 21:00

ooh thank you, i'm hoping that beltaine will help as well cos i'll be testing then!
