Right.
Last had sex round about January- DH has been unwell. I have had two normal (v heavy, normal for me) periods since then.

I have started eating healthily and exercising this month, have lost a lot of weight, and am only spotting instead of getting a period. This is only my body settling down, correct? I couldn't be pg after having two periods?

take a pg test. It can happen.

Ok. But it is pretty normal to skip a period when changing diet, right?

Sorry, I have never skipped a period due to diet change, however a couple of family members had period-like bleeds throughout pregnancy.

Test time - you need to settle it! Good luck.

Fuck. Really? Shock

Afraid so... Only a test can settle this for you.

I've totally lost track of when I'm due (though I am like clockwork) and only think that I am due to the spotting. Never had this before. Will test...

Sorry, don't intend to spook you. With my family history I practically take pregnancy tests for earache! Good luck.

Don't worry, it's better to know! I really don't think I am though. I'd be pretty far gone now and I am losing weight, not putting it on!

Shall wait til next week to see if AF turns up, then I'll test. Thanks for the advice. :)

I skipped a period and then had a really long cycle month when I first started losing weight. However, I also checked it out with my GP. I suggest you do the same if your period doesn't turn up.
