Will try to do a brief overview:
End of Nov just before AF due, I had really sensitive boobs. Usually I get the heavy/full feeling but this time it was painful to touch, very obvious veins, and nipples stayed erect for several days. I did come on, but quite lightly, pink discharge, some brown towards the end, didn't last a full week.
Since then I've had irregular bleeding, one at the end of Dec, and one at the start of Jan, none for Feb yet. I'm not actively trying to get pregnant so didn't really pay much attention to the new boob feelings. Once I bled I assumed I was not pg and forgot about it.
Recently though, more symptoms have showed and made me wonder again:
- Persitant mild headache that comes and goes
- Aching lower back when I walk, and legs feel heavy
- Get a bit breathless just walking upstairs
- Really toxic farts, especially at night. So much that my partner has had to barricade himself with the duvet!
- Horrible nightmares
No nausea but hungry all the time and have put on a little weight but assumed it's Christmas tummy.
I've ordered a test and will do it when it arrives. But not sure the best time. Perhaps after Feb's AF due time? Not sure if I will bleed again or how much. Not planning a pregnancy so would be a huge surprise. I'm just embarrassed I've put off the test this long.
Other info: I came off the implant in 2013 and it took a while for hormones to settle down but after a year, periods were fairly regular again. Partner and I have been using condoms but not other contraception.
Anyone had similar symptoms then find out they're not pregnant? If I get a negative I'll go to doc anyway in case it's a hormone imbalance or something. If it's positive I'll have to have a chat with DP!
