Confused/slightly scared ....

[lookingforanswers123]

Hi

I have a quick question, I know the obvious answer would be to take a test but ... scared! Some insight/advice please.

I always have very regular periods every 28/29 days which always last 3 days each (been this way for past 6 - 7 years atleast. Last month (January) I got my period a few days early (26 days) and it wasn't "normal" it only lasted 1 day - 1.5 days and was more watery and lighter in colour than is usual for me . I took a test after this and it was negative. I was due on my period on 11th Feb following my usual 28 day rotation however have not come on as yet. I have had REALLY sore breasts for the past 2 weeks and a pain in the left side my stomach with occasional cramping and bloating plus the past week have been really tired like all the time and wanting to eat everything in sight - I swear I haven't stopped eating or thinking about food.

I've googled symptoms and all it tells me is early signs of pregnancy or various other scenarios which seem to suggest I'm dying. So either way I'm kind of nervous about the reasons for the symptoms. I have been under some stress lately but nothing that in my mind would be classed as severe and although I could understand stress causing me to be delayed in getting my period and comfort eat, I dont think I can blame it for the sore breasts and bloating.

Insight anyone?

Id book and see your doctor and do another test Hun. If you are getting pain it could be ectopic so if it is without worrying you, best to get checked. But do a test... Xx

OK so I bit the bullet and took a test. Only using a cheapo urine stick I had left over from my unusual period last month, It appears to show a quite faint but definitely there second line. Aaah! I need go buy a more reliable test later so I have a more definitive answer! But 1st I have a job interview in 2 hours ha! Oh God! [hmmm]

I think its a case of a line is a line, congrats :) I had a faint positive and then used the clear blue digital and it confirmed it

I went back and looked at the test strip. I obviously ran out the room before it had finished thinking coz that line isnt faint any more. Still gunna buy a
"proper" test later to be sure. Can you see this image? Does it look right to you?

Defo positive! I would save your money and not bother buying another tes! Congratulations and good luck with the job interview! Xx

Took another test using clear blue. Yep still positive! lol

Runs off to hide from the world I'll be back when I've stopped freaking out! Advice on telling people? this wasnt exactly (at all) planned!
