Q: pregnant or period ?

Hi all,

I got my periods on april 23rd 2008 and my hubby and I had sex from the 5th day of my period, almost every other day.
Yday I had severe pain in the lower abdomen, and it lasted till night
and in the night, i saw a brown red spot in my panty.
Its been only 2 weeks since I had a period, and my period is expected only after 10 days.
What could this mean?
Can someone tell me, wehther I am pregnant? or is it ovulation bleeding? or is it begining of my next periods.
My periods were never irregular, I always had a 30 day cycle.
By the way, my huubby and I are TTC for a year now.

Any advise would be great.

Thanks,
SV

No one will be able to tell you if you are pregnant. This could be ovulation or implantation or the sign of an irritated cervix. Have you been charting/temping to track your ovulation? Using ovulation predictors?

I hope this is your month!

Thank you so much for your reply.
What does implantation mean? does it mean there is a baby on the way.
I have never ever had anything like this...irrated cervix or a spotting in between my cycle.

I dont track my ovulation, I really dont know how to track that.
One more question, should I continue to have sex this month or wait till I do a pregnancy test.

Please reply

Thanks,
