Is It Possible I'm Pregnant?? Posted: 10-20-04 01:08am
I am a 29 yr old mother of 1 little boy
age 7. I haven't been pregnant for 7
yrs., and i've been trying for 7 years.
My cycle, is the kind of thing that comes
and goes alot. For example: one year i'll
have it, and the next year I won't, and so
on. Well, anyway, about 5 months ago I
started, which took me by surprise as it
always does. Anyway, last month, was a
really, really, bad month for me. My
period was flowing so hard, and I was
changing a pad, every hour. I must of
went through 15 pads, in just one day,
then afterwards, it went over the 7th day,
it went up to about 10th days instead.
Now, my husband and I have been sexually
active the past week, and usually I start
anywhere between the 16th and the 17th.
Now I know its kinda early to really tell,
but it's been 7 yrs. Since i've had one,
and when I had gotten pregnant with my
son, I had been drinking alot, and didn't
know till I was about 3 months along, and
I felt so bad, after I found out, that I
thought I hurt my son, and I didn't really
feel anything, like any signs, all I
remember is my third month, I couldn't
keep anything down, wound up at the
doctors, and he took a pregnancy test, and
came back positive three days later.
See. I don't remember a whole lot, I feel
like a kid who forgot how to ride his/her
bike, and I know they say you never
forget, but it's been 7 yrs. I
know I should remember, but I don't. I've
been having a sign, but i'm not sure if
its possible or not. I've been feeling
nausea, the past three days now, and i've
been having gas and bloating, and have
been feeling some pain, like stretching on
my lower left side, towards my pelvic,
that comes and goes, every now and
again.
I've also been running a very small fever,
but not really too high, have been getting
cold and hot flashes too. Whats the
normal temperature, when your pregnant?
Mine is close to the 100 mark. I've also
been experiencing, alot of back pain, alot
more than normal. The gas is like my
biggest problem, i'm not sure if thats a
sign or not, but i've tried looking it up
in the search engine, and came up blank,
just usually, the top 10 signs of
pregnancy. 1) fatigue 2) breast
enlargement 3) nausea& vomiting 4)
frequent urination 5) sensitivity to odor
6) implantation bleeding 7) food cravings
a missed period 9)
back pain 10) . Please help me!!

I am a little lost.... But actually, I
read somewhere that if your bleeding like
the way you said you were last month,
going through a pad every hour.. Thats a
sign of miscarriage.
Dont quote me on that, but thats just wat
I read... Other then that, I got a little
confused about what your asking for.. You
could possibly be pregnant... You said u
had sex the 16th and 17th? I'd say wait
about 14 days and take a test, or schedule
for a blood test.

Well, just wanted to let you know, i'm not
sure if it was a miscarriage, because the
truth is I had my period the week before
that, and wouldn't that mean, that I
wouldn't have a period the week before
that too? It just seems like every
morning, i've been feeling really nausea,
but right after I eat i'm fine. Just to
make you a little bit less confused, i'll
explain in detail about what my bodies
been doing, couldn't do it on the last
subject, they didn't give enough space to
say it all, and they cut it off. Anyways,
I usually have a period on the 16th or
17th of every month, but right now i'm
late. I've been having cravings for ice
cream, and getting nausea every morning,
but no vomiting yet. I've been taking
multi-vitamins, so no constipation as of
yet. I figured since, i'm on daily
vitamins it might not make me have
constipation, but i've been on daily
vitamins, for about five years now. Well,
just been having gas it seems like
everyday, and not just every now and
again, its almost like constantly, didn't
know, if this might be a sign of pregnancy
or not. Been feeling alot of tightening
in my stomach, and some stabbing pains in
my lower left side, near my pelvic bone.
The pain only comes every now and again.
Now, I haven't had a kid in 7 years and
i'm not sure about all of the signs your
supposed to get, that makes it easier to
tell, if your pregnant or not, but I have
noticed dark blue veins running through my
breasts, and alot more bumps than usual,
and the inner section of the breast, i've
noticed is alot darker and bigger. I just
hope I haven't gotten my hopes up so high,
that it comes as a disappointment. I
don't want to do that, but I have noticed
myself, eating alot more. I'm not sure if
thats stress or not.
I have prayed to the good lord everyday,
to bare me with another child, because
i've been waiting patiently to have
another child, I feel, like the lords
still not ready to give me another child,
just yet, and I figured he knows when the
right time for me, to bare another child
is. I just feel sometimes, like i'm
running out of time, and my bodies been
through so much trauma as a kid, and as an
adult, if anyone knows, what i'm talking
about, when I say trauma, then i'm sure
you'll understand what I mean.
Please let me know, if you think this is
all in my head, or just wanting it so bad
to happen, i'm making these things happen
to myself.
