Is it possible to be still pregnant after a period?

[lovecloud]

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?

Do a test, then you will know!

God I dont know how many tests I have done in the last year!!!

They are so expensive, I dont have any cheap shops around that sell budget tests. I am so skint at the moment that I actually do not have a spare £5.

If it was a m/c you can still test positive for a week after or so I heard - is that true?

friend of mine bleed monthle for 5 months berore she found out she was pregnant

I really thought I was pregnant, the amount of weeing I was doing was ridiculous and my boobs were so sore, saying that they were not tender throughout the whole of my first pregnancy. Now I have been bleeding six days, heavy at first with blood clots and now very light here and there. I feel sick but not weeing as much as I was and I am so hungry all the time which again I was not in my 1st pregnancy but I know pregnancies can be totally different.

If I have some money next week I will buy a test. It is encouraging to know that it can still be possible.

I can send u one of my spare tests if u like?

Would you? That is very kind of you.

I feel like a sponger now

ah don't be daft I got a deal on ebay, now then the question is do u want the pee on the test or the pee in a pot and feel like a mad scientist case?

Couldn't you go to the Dr's or family planning clinic and get a test done for free?

i am happy take whatever is on offer, pregnancy tests on ebay?

somebody sold you their own stash of tests?

people can buy all sort of things cheap and what better way of doubling your money than Ebay!

ooh yes it's a web shop thingy, i'll find a link for u, CAT me you're address and i'll send it over, the DR of course would do a test for u, or apparently (according to my friends DR the chemist does it as well, althou i'd rather not walk into a chemist with my little pot personally!)

yes - i could go to the gp, i might just do that tomorrow, but if i tell the go what i told you they will probably say that i am not and to wait and see...

plus i dont want to use an app up especially if i am not, do you have to actually go in and see the go to get a test or do they send you into a room alone to do it?

Chemist - I would prefer to do that then maybe waster gp's valuable time, do they just give you a ot then?

I'll ask on here?

I'm assuming they have an apt with u, well I did when I went to the family planning clinic, I'll send a test tomorrow so u can have it for thursday, (if u can wait that long! ) I know this TTC lark is a pain in the butt, all I ask is if u r pg u shower me in baby dust!

ok - thanks i'll contact you now

thanks and i promise to send you lots of baby dust anyway and a little prayer to Mary who helped my sil give birth to two beautiful boys after being told she would most probably never conceive...

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

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.)

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!

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?

wb - have u tested just to see

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.

bump

did u get the test? have u done it yet??

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.
