Hi everyone need some much needed advice.

I had a MMC 02/02/11 then D&C on 09/02/11. First AF was 5 weeks following this on 16/03/11 and was very heavy. Next bleed was exactly 28 days later on 13/04/11 and was what I consider very much an AF and at times quite heavy. But...... i have alot of symptoms that reseamble pregnancy for example metallic taste which i first noticed whilst bleeding, very tender breasts, very bloated (this would be my sixth pregnancy) tired, moody and my sense of smell is heightened alot. Did a test last week but was negative. What is going on I have already been asked if I am pregnant again twice!!!!

Please help I feel quite literally I am losing my mind.

So you have had a period on 13th April...... which is 14 days ago and u say it was quite heavy?....... so the chances of you being preg I would say are quite slim?

But thats not to say your not, I would wait out your cycle and see if a period comes along when your next due, if it doesnt then you know to do a re test?

I think womens bodies are very good at letting them feel the symptoms of being preg, esp if they want it that much??

I have certainly experienced those wishful feelings when trying, and they can take over, easy to say but be patient and see if you come on when your due, good luck xxxxx

your hormones are prob all over the shop, give your body a little bit of time to adjust and maybe retake a test in a couple of wks?

Thanks for advice i had a feeling it could all be in my head and i should just play the waiting game and see what happens in 14 days time and try not to think about it so much xxxxx

Thanks for the advice I had a feeling that it was possibly all in my head and I need to wait and see if anything turns up in 14 days to know for sure but yes I can quite believe that your body plays tricks on you when you want something so bad xxx
