Is It All In My Head??? Posted: 08-07-07 15:20pm
I get my period between 28-31 days
normally, but ocasionally get it late.
Last month I got it on June 26th, this
month it was 4 days late (started on july
29th) but came on just like a normal
period for me (bad night sweats the 2
nights before, moody, sweet tooth, oily
skin, then the day before I get it I
always know because I am freezing all day,
then horrible cramps). I had cramps all
night and the next day and lots of clots
and tissue for the first 2 days, with
medium flow. Then the next couple of days
it was lighter, turned brownish like it
usually does, then stopped. What is weird
is that right before I got it and
currently I have hard nipples. My boobs
are not sore and are not any bigger, just
my nipples are more erect. I was pretty
stressed out before I got my period, I
know that stress can cause menstruation
delay and I do have diagnosed panic
disorder and general health anxiety. I am
also wondering if stress could be causing
this weird thing with my nipples?? Or
could it be a hormonal imbalance?? I tend
to interpret every little detail of my
body, hence the health anxiety, and I have
been known to give myself symptoms after
reading things. I have a bunch of friends
who are pregnant right now and that is the
LAST thing I want. When my period was
late, the first thing I thought about was
oh sh** what if I'm PG?? I kept dwelling
on it and started looking up stuff on the
internet about PG symptoms. Then I finally
got my period and I felt relieved, but why
the weird nipples still? I swear I have
read to many posts on these forums and
scared myself. Anyone else have similar
experience???? Phantom preg maybe????

i think you've read too much into this,
hun, but if you are worried take a
pregnancy test to keep your mind at rest x
