light pink blood spotting w/ negative pregnancy test (false?)
Posted: 11-21-07 22:20pm

hiii everyone. okay heres the situation. im a week and a day late. sometimes i can be like 2 days late and get my period. but ive never been a week and a day late. me and my boyfriend have been having unprotected sex for about two months. we're kinda "trying" to get pregnant but i don't know whats going on. my breasts are tender and the veins in the them are very dark.ive been having abdominal pains and piercing pains where my ovaries would be. i have very bad mood swings (ask my boyfriend (they're really bad) ). and i've been very tired. these have been happening for the past 2 weeks. today i went to wipe myself, and i got light pink blood. but only when i wipe myself. its not like coming out like normal period blood. could this be spotting? i took a pregnacy test on like friday or saturday and it came back negative. could it be false? i need some advice. if anyone could help out that would be great. thanks a lot. :]

What do teens tell their parents in situations like this, if they are pregnant? Do they say they were trying to get pregnant?

False negatives are a heck of a lot more common than false positives. I say you should test again, and if the symptoms don't go away, and your period doesn't show up you better get your butt to a doctor!

Also, you never stated your age but if you're still a teen, please consider the consequences of getting pregnant so young. There are a lot of teen moms in this forum, they'll step up and tell you first hand that it's not an easy ride.

first off
if taken correctly after a missed period hpts are usually correct. so your most liely NOT pregnant

and a very small percentage of women have bleeding at all during pregnancy or implantation

so my guess is your periods are irregular
its common
it happens

You could be pregnant. If in another week your period doesn't make it's appearance, take another test. If it's negative you should go see the doctor. You might be one of the small amount of women who doesn't show up on the HPT at the usual time.

Oh and that could have been implantation bleeding. 1/4th of pregnant women have reported this from what I've been researching (I've been looking at every legitimate site about this lately.) If it gets heavier then it is probably your period.

You need to wait two weeks from the last time you had unprotected sex and THEN test. Since you're constantly having unprotected sex that makes things a little more complicated, but generally if your period is late, a test will be accurate. I suggest taking another one when you're two weeks past when your period should have started.

Pregnancy symptoms and PMS symptoms are pretty much the same. So unless these symptoms are something new you've never experienced, you can't use them as indicators of pregnancy.
