Big clots - abnormal period - painful cramps ... Posted: 11-08-07 16:02pm
Ok, I'm seventeen and I thought I was
pregnate, well I still think I am but I'm
really unsure right now. I had a few signs
of being pregnate and that made me unsure
because I wasn't showing enough signs but
I wanted to wait to have a test done cause
I figured it was too soon to have one
done. But, I've started bleeding but I
don't think its my period because its too
abnormal for me, but my blood had really
big clotts in it and I'm having really
painful cramps and normally they don't get
this bad, but my mom had to come get me
and take me home because I cloud hardly
walk with out crying. So my question is,
do you think its just a really bad period?
Miscarrage? Or what? please help because
im so unsure.

Did you ask your mom this question? What
did she think was wrong when she came to
get you?
Did you have sex without contraception
recently?
The first thing you can do is take a home
pregnancy test as ANGELOS MAMA suggested.
If that is negative and you are still
having these cramps, maybe you should have
your doctor check you out.

First off, you never said if you were late
for your period. What signs of pregnancy
were you having? Pregnancy signs and PMS
signs are very similar.
How late was your period? A missed or late
period can also cause extreme cramping and
clotting. A lot of early miscarriage
don't, by the way.
No one on a message board can tell you
whether you are having a miscarriage, have
had a miscarriage or were ever pregnant or
not. You will need to take a pregnancy
test - there would be enough hormone left
in your body for a positive if you are or
were pregnant.
Do not take this lightly. A miscarriage
can cause severe bleeding if that is what
it is. You will need to be seen by a
doctor!

Yes I told my mom when i first started
thinking i was pregnate, and I was about a
month late for my period.I hadn't taken a
test yet because my mom wanted to wait
until we could go to the doctor and know
for sure if i was or wasnt. My mom is
going to take me to the doctor tomorrow.
Don't get me wrong for me saying this, I
wasn't planning on having a baby, we used
a condom but it broke. But, if i was
pregnate i didn't want to lose it, not
that way and no other way. If i was
pregnate i was going to have the baby and
make the best out of the situation. please
dont take me to be a fool I did have
protected sex but even then sometimes
things happen. I was just very unsure of
weather i had a miscarriage or not.

I didn't ask if you had unprotected sex
recently because I was going to say you
were a fool if you had said yes. I only
asked to see there was a chance you could
actually be pregnant. You wouldn't
believe the ways some people think they
can get pregnant, like by oral sex, for
example.
I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow.

A home pregnancy test will tell you
whether or not you are pregnant just as
well as a doctor's test. They cost around
$10.
A miscarriage can cause SEVERE bleeding
and it can be VERY NECESSARY to be seen by
medical professionals. If you ever believe
you are having a miscarriage go to your
doctor or the nearest emergency room to be
seen. Women can die if they lose too much
blood and some miscarriages continue to
bleed for weeks and weeks. You would need
to be seen and get a D & C.
Good luck.

Pregnancy test will tell you if you are
indeed pregnant(proper spelling) even if
you did indeed miscarry the pregnancy
hormone will rem ian in your system for a
couple of weeks.
They cost around
$10.
