Could I be pregnant? Im freaking out!!!

61 replies

mamam2 · 30/08/2019 23:29

Me and my husband have been in a long distance relationship for 2 years now (long story as to why that is)

Anyway I had our second born 14 months ago. We saw each other briefly when our son was 4 months old.

I never had period since I gave birth. We are currently together and had sex last week. Few days later I saw normal spotting which lasted exactly only 1 day. At first I thought maybe my periods are back however Im now freaking out could it be Implantation bleeding?

If it was my period surely the bleeding would be longer than just a day?

I didn’t use any protection when we had sex. He said he will come out when he comes but we both got carried away and he came inside me. The following day I did took after morning pill. Is it still possible that I could still conceive?

Im really freaking out!!!

When were you together? How many days ago

whattodowith · 30/08/2019 23:37

The spotting was probably to do with the MAP, it can and does cause spotting and irregular bleeding. Implantation bleeds typically happen just before a period would be due so usually two weeks after ovulation. You wouldn’t have implantation bleeding a few days after sex.

So you last saw him 10 months ago?

You wouldn't have implantation bleeding after a week.

Not able to advise re your symptoms, but your life sounds way too chaotic to be having unprotected sex. FFS take some responsibility.

Hopefully your period will come this time like a phoenix from the ashes. SJust be more careful in future, perhaps?

Is this a situation where one of you doesn't have a visa to live in the other one's country of residence or something?

Either way: the bleeding was probably caused by the morning after pil, assuming you took it correctly. But as others have said, you really do need to use some contraception and not rely on the withdrawal method.

Orpy40 · 31/08/2019 01:05

How weird to be in a ldr with your husband..

Also none of us can tell you if your pregnant, go buy a test tomorrow that will give you your answer 🙄 then buy some condoms.

Seren85 · 31/08/2019 01:07

I can't answer your question so if you're worried then take a test. I can say MAP caused some really weird random bleeds when I took it.

Toastymash · 31/08/2019 01:10

Take a pregnancy test

EmeraldShamrock · 31/08/2019 01:39

You need to see your GP about contraceptive and your period. I didn't get mine back for 10 months until I was prescribed progesterone.
Hopefully your not pregnant.

JustMe81 · 31/08/2019 01:40

Unprotected sex does not leave you open to the chance of pregnancy, absolutely not at all. Grin

PurpleDaisies · 31/08/2019 01:52

Take a test.

Nobody can tell you one way or another.

LagunaBubbles · 31/08/2019 02:00

Why are you asking strangers on MN when you should just take a test and that would tell you?

foxtiger · 31/08/2019 07:00

LagunaBubbles she had sex last week. It's a bit early to take a test.

Isleepinahedgefund · 31/08/2019 07:30

I don't want to freak you out further but I took the MAP very promptly and still got pregnant. I had unprotected sex around the time I was ovulating so I guess the sperm got there first and the resulting baby was (and continues to be...) very tenacious and stubborn!

BeanBag7 · 31/08/2019 07:46

"I didn’t use any protection when we had sex."
So yes you could be pregnant

LagunaBubbles · 31/08/2019 07:48

Well take a test in a few days then. I got a positive test 9 days after I ovulated.

Roozy123 · 31/08/2019 07:54

No one in this forum knows if you are pregnant.

You could give us all the information in the world... And we still wouldn't know.

Go buy and take a test or go and read this to your GP

colourlessgreenidea · 31/08/2019 08:00

Is this a situation where one of you doesn't have a visa to live in the other one's country of residence or something?

Thank you for all the replies, include the sarcastic, judgemental ones who had no intention of helping.

Will take the test obviously when the time comes x

You've got two children. Surely you know how biology works and you know you're obviously fertile Confused

You've had unprotected sex, of course there's a chance you could be pregnant.

I don't think there's any true Mystic Megs running around on MN who can tell you. Wait another week or two then take a test.

No, this is the situation where my husband got transferred to a well paid position in a different country for 3 years. I stayed behind because Im working here as well and didn’t want to leave my work for just 3 years. To us, was worth the sacrifice.

ChickenNugget86 · 31/08/2019 09:32

Would you like to have another child?

I think you should get a early response test to see. If you are not pregnant stock up on condoms or see your GP about going on the pill. It sounds like you don't see DH often so I can see how you've got carried away but surely if you don't want anymore children you would use protection?

KateWrong · 31/08/2019 09:43

I’ve never understood the point of these posts. Of course you might be pregnant, but only time will tell. I hope you get the outcome you’re looking for.

dollydaydream114 · 31/08/2019 10:19

OK - it’s just that for someone who is working overseas in a well paid job and has a wife and a small baby, 10 months is a lot longer than I’d expect between visits home, even if they’re on the opposite side of the world. Which is why I thought perhaps it was a visa issue.
