HELP PLEASE

[RACHEL1982]

Hi
could really do with a bit of help here,i had my last period on the 26th August, and now ihave got a brown discharge, i am not due on my next period untill 22nd Sept.
can someone please tell me why i am getting this, i have never had it before, would this be a very early pregnancy sympton?
Regards
Rachel

you could be, I'm going through the same thing at the moment, i'm due on on the 21st of september and a few days ago had a brownish/light pinkish spotting that lasted 2-3 days, now i feel bloated, tired, sicky, got headaches, and my boobs have got heavier.
I already have 2 children and had these symptoms with my first pregnancy. keep an eye out for any more symptoms and if you don't come on do a home test or go to your doctor as they're tests are more acurate.

all the best and good luck.

for some strange reason the brown discharge was my period coming, i came on last night - 10 days early...it has got me so confused. i dont know why this has happened, it is very light

[steph86]

very strange! i have read somewhere that you can have some spotting while ovulating. still keep an eye on the flow though you may still be preg if it's very light.

[RACHEL1982]

nope this is definetly my period its very dark and not light. oh well better luck next month.x

[steph86]

i hope it works out the way you want it to next month, keep trying and keep me posted. Good luck

We have been trying for 3 months now and it isnt happening. my periods are never on time,some months i come on after 20 days and otheres 40 days, so i never know when i am ovulating, i just always go by the 14th day.

My periods are exactly the same, really irregular. we had brought ovulation tests but they never showed that i was ovulating so i gave up with them (after using them for 3 months) and then the next month i was pregnant with my first. we never planned anything just tried several times a week and that seemed to do the trick. It's so frustrating cause you think before you due on that you are pregnant then when you find out your not you feel gutted.
My advice to you would be to try all the way through your cycle even while your on your period if you feel up to it cause you can ovulate then as well.

[RACHEL1982]

Thanks Steph,
i think that is what we will do, maybe try every day or ever other day from now untill my period arrives (if it arrives)
yes it is very frustrating whe it arrives,especially as we are trying and most of my friends have fallen over past few months and theres wasnt planned. i am even begining to think they may be something wrong with one of us. my sister has polysistic ovaries so i hope i dont have that either, but we will keep trying for a good few months yet before we start worrying. my friend tried for a year beofre she fell, god just the thought of that makes me shudder.
how long were you trying before you fell?

It seems the harder you try the longer it takes. i fell pregnant by accident the first time and it was quite a shock but we were still happy bout it, we went for our first scan just to be told i'd miscarried, i had to go into hospital to have it removed. We decided to start trying for a baby and 3 months later i fell again then at 6 weeks miscarried again! i couldn't believe it, then i fell again but lost it at 8 weeks i thought i would never be able to have a baby. then another 3 months and i fell again and had my son, i was so happy and greatful then 3 months after my son was born i found out i was pregnant with my daughter she is nearly 10 months now. it took so long in the begining and now i think i might be pregnant again without trying, all of a sudden my luck switched so hopefully the same will happen for you.
i used to and still get upset and at people that have abortions and give their babies up cause thats all i wanted.
i really do hope it happens for you this month, have you finished your period yet? remember start tryin asap if your not already.

[RACHEL1982]

God it seems you have had a fair bit of bad luck with your miscarriages, but then you got your 2 children out of it. it just goes to show that it can be done . are you happy that you may be pregnant again?
i really dont know how you coped having a few miscarriages, it would destroy me.
my sister had one last year and it really affected her badly, she still hasnt fell pregnant after trying for 2 years.....they are now getting treatment though. also my best friend had one 3 months ago.
i come on last wednesday - i am normally only on for 5days but i am still on now, and i am getting a few pains as if i was about to come on - weird (dont know what is happening dpwn there with me lately) as soon as i come off we are going to start, do it every day or every other day.

The first one was the worse cause i got to 12 weeks and didn't know i'd lost the baby, i thought i was going to get a picture and come out smiling but came out crying instead, then with the next 2 i was preparing myself just in case it happed again.
It was shock when i first suspected i might be a week ago but now if i am i'll be just as happy as i was before, i'm just greatful for everything now and will always be greatful that i've got the children i have.
i'm due on, on friday so we'll c what happens, i went to the doctor yesterday to c if he'd do a blood test but he just said to wait! i'm biting my nails waiting, i'm sure i am but don't want to get my hopes up if i'm not.

[RACHEL1982]

have you had any early signs? i sopose you just know. you will have to let me know when you have been to the doctors, you can do a pregnancy test that detects pregnancy upto 4days early,so you can do one now and it will tell you. go get yourself one from boots and let me know!! GOOD LUCK! x

[Guest]

i feel like i just no i am. i feel sicky, can't stop weeing and my boobs are so much bigger and now they've started leaking which is what happened from the word go in my other pregnancies. when i start thinking bout it my heart starts thumping out my chest like i'm nervous, scared, worried and excited. i think i'll do a test at the weekend.

[RACHEL1982]

E well dont forget to let me know what the outcome is. and let me know if anything happens in the meantime.
