Weird period a week ago, faint positive today, and weird feelings

So i will give you the entire run down real quick. Sorry some might be tmi. I'm 22 and ive been off depo for a year or so now, after being on it for 3 years and my periods went back to regular right away. Well in August my boyfriend and I went camping and did the deed. The condom broke and a piece stayed inside for several days. It came out and then like two days later I had a period. Very light compared to normal and only lasted a couple of days. Since my periods have started again they've been 5-7 days long, consistent heavyish flow, with back pain, mood swings, and tender breasts for a week or so before its starts. Fast forward to this month, I started wondering when my period was going to arrive feeling like it was late or should be arriving any day now This was the 13th-14th? and then the 15th? I started spotting. First day was light spotting, day two was light but more normal colored, and day three was spotting. Day four I didn't even need a tampon anymore. Actually I don't think I wore one most of day three either. Anyways so I got my period for September. BUT I still have this full, pressure, pre period bloated feeling. I got the worst case of acne I've had since I started getting acne at 14 and I have been having food adversions. I was eating a salad and got to the end of it and then was suddenly disgusted by it. At my boyfriends parents for dinner three nights ago I was eating a rib and took one bite of it before I was nauseated by it. Ranch dressing also has been we d to me lately. Which at first I didn't think anything of it because I don't like vinegar and I was a vegetarian but I also was woken up like an hour or two after I fell asleep finally the other night at 5am to an overwhelming mouth watering sensation that I get before I puke. I went into the bathroom and never threw up but gagged and had to sit there for a minute. I also have been having a lot of feelings in my tummy which I could describe as gas except for the fact that I am not actually having to pass any gas and they're more of fluttery grumble feelings. I am super emotional and have been for weeks. I also just went through a move and was pretty stressed from that but the emotions have stayed. I took a clear blue +/- test yesterday and at first it was negative. I threw it in the garage and when I looked at it this morning there was a faint blue positive line present. Not colorless or grey but very faint blue. I've read about evap lines but I've always felt that I would be one of those I didn't know I was pregnant woman. That being said I asked my ex sister in law who didn't find out she was pregnant until 6 1/2 months what her symptoms were because she too had received negatives on her hpt and she said I explained pretty much exactly how she felt in the beginning of her pregnancy and even stated that she really feels like I am. We are not trying to conceive but we would definitely be more than pleased if we were pregnant. Any advice or anyone willing to share similar stories, it would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance. Baby dust to all :)

I must say it does rather sound as though you are pregnant

Would you not get another test? I don't think the result is reliable after a time delay. So I would get down to the chemist tomorrow. Where are you in the monthly a cycle now, assuming you did have a period?

Just get another test and do it again. I hope you get the result you are hoping for! Smile

I did the second test in the box but it didn't work at all. Earlier today I purchased a test from the dollar store but I dropped the urine dropper it came weeks after only a drop or two and was not at home when I took it so could not test correctly. I have an appointment tomorrow at my local pregnancy center to talk with a nurse and possibly take a urine test in their office. They may or may not test me though because I have a "period" this month and may want me to wait until October when I would have a "missed period" but if I am one of the few that does experience bleeding then I will be waiting for forever. If I had to guess I would say I am between 4-6 weeks. My sister in law did not know she was pregnant until she was six and a half months. She had multiple negative hpt and then finally a positive dollar store test at six months. I asked her what her symptoms were and she said basically everything I am experiencing she went through. Is it possible that I could be pregnant and not be able to find out until I am 8+ weeks?

Were you able to get a test done at your appointment, Wishful?

Clear blue are notorious for coloured evaps, so you really need to take another test. If you can find a pink dye one that would be best. They tend to be the most reliable.
