My mom won't let me go to the doctor
because I don't have insurance and she
says she's not shelling out a bunch of
money for something that's probably no big
deal.
BUT... Here's my 'deal':
For a year, I had been getting the birth
control shot, which gave me no periods. In
September of last year, I stopped taking
it, and finally had a period in January of
this year. After that - no more periods. I
FINALLY had another period starting on May
26th, and it was a normal period.
My boyfriend and I rarely have intercourse
any more since we had a baby who is now
two years old, so the last time we had it
was two weeks after that date, which was
on June 9th. Ok, now I'm well aware that a
woman is most fertile 2 weeks after her
period, so it MIGHT be a posibility that
I'm pregnant.
I haven't had a normal period since May
26th, but for the past two weeks, I've
been spotting a little bit about twice a
day. When I wipe, there's sometimes a
little bit of pink with a tiny clot, and
sometimes it's a pretty big gush of
blood.
I've been constantly tired (like falling
asleep if I'm sitting still for too long
tired) for about a year now, so that's
nothing new, and I've always had frequent
urination ever since getting pregnant, so
that's not really anything that has
changed either. Before getting pregnant,
and after losing the pregnancy weight, I
used to be 280 and since losing the
pregnancy weight, I've gained it all back,
coming up to about 380 now. Could this
rapid weight gain be the reason for all of
this? Could it be type 2 diabetes?
I wouldn't worry about it, but I've never
spotted like this before, for this long. I
just want some opinions before I take any
actions because I'm one of those people
who can't really afford to have that many
options about this kind of stuff. I can't
even afford a $1.00 pregnancy test until
wednesday! But until then, I would really
like to know what everyone thinks. I would
really appreciate it!

You can go to planned parenthood and they
will give you a free pregnancy test.
Have you been eating correctly and
exercising? How long was the period of
time that you had the weight gain again?
What did you do to lose the pregnancy
weight?
