Am I Pregnant?? I Need Help!!! Posted: 08-22-06 12:25pm
I have a very complicated situation. I am
18 years old. I have a 16 month old and I
am having pregnancy symptoms once again.
Also I was going on and off of my birth
control a couple of times. It just got so
annoying and difficult. Last month on
july 13th I started my period but
something was wrong. I woke up in a small
puddle of blood. I washed up and decided
to use a pad because of the amount of
blood coming out. Then about 3 days later
it turned into spotting. Dark colored
very light bleeding. So I kept taking my
birth control for about two more weeks.
But I kept forgetting and doubled up every
few days but when I forgot I started
bleeding red blood again. This was
consecutive for 14 days. So I stopped
taking birth control. But also ive only
had sex twice since then and both were
very recently but I am having pregnancy
symptoms you experience after about 10
weeks. Such as, one week late and no sign
of period, my breast feel like they are
"letting down" if you breast fed b4 you
know that feeling. Also, I have had milky
discharge(no odor or anything abnormal
just thicker), really bad acne on back and
shoulders, frequency to urinate, faster
then usual nail growth, and lots and lots
of gassy stomach pain. Also for about 3
days I was bed ridden because of sharp
pains in my stomach. Not sure what it was
but it was horrible. I went to the
hospital twice and had it checked out but
all the results were perfect. They never
said anything about pregnancy though. But
most importantly I took 4 pregnancy tests
and all were negative. Also, I have had a
lot of very common little signs of being
pregnant and that I had with my last
little girl. But I am 18 and I have had a
successful pregnancy before. I have an
intuition that I am but all the scientific
stuff is saying no. I dont have a doctor
or insurance so I cant just go get a blood
test. I need some real help and
suggestions. If anyone knows an obgyn,
let me know! Please help me!!!

I am sorry to hear that you are going thru
all of this! I am not a Dr. Maybe
you might have tested to early, anything
is possible but I would do my best to get
in to see an ob/gyn or at least a regular
dr that can check you out , however an
ob/gyn would be your best bet and tell
her/him everything that is going on and
everything that has happened. If you
are under alot of stress strange things
can happen, but your best bet is to get
thoroughly checked out(just my opinion),
their are times that if you do not have
insurance that they can make up a payment
plan for you.
Maybe someone else here has more
information for you! It might even
have something to do with the b/c.
I wish you all the best!
Please let us know what you find out as
you are in my thoughts and give your
baby(the 16 month old) a hug.
We are here for you!

More than likely it is caused by the
misuse of birth control. That can cause
abnormal bleeding and some pregnancy
symptoms (like sore breasts and nausea).
I understand that taking the pill
regularly can be a bit difficult if you
don't have a schedule you stick to. Maybe
you should look into a different form of
birth control (an iud, the patch, the
shot, etc) if you don't wish to become
pregnant.
Your situation doesn't sound very
complicated, it sounds like you need to
find a form of birth control that works
for your lifestyle.
