Maybe pregnant after baby but no period Questions??

Thu Jun 28, 2012 2:09 pm

Is it all in my head? I don't know. I used to be a part of this group so I thought why not come back and check with the experts?! My little guy is 15 months and I am still bfing him 3-4 times a day and haven't gotten my period yet. I am seriously having baby fever and I don't know if it's all in my head but I've been thinking maybe I'm pregnant or maybe it's just normal after ovulation stuff that I'm feeling. I don't know if I've been ovulating the past several months or not, I haven't been keeping track. *TMI* We've been using condoms but not until the end. Now I wonder if I'm just starting to ovulate and that's why I'm feeling kind of achy in the lower belly, not period-like crampy- different. Or, I'm wondering if I could be pregnant. What's your cervix like after ovulating and/or what's it like early in pregnancy? Mine is medium (not low or high) kind of open and creamy cm.

Another question, I wonder if anyone has faced this before, if I bought a dollar store test just to get it out of my head and turns out I am pregnant how the heck will I know how far along I am? We aren't TTC but we're trying to decide if we're going to have one more or not, always wanted 4 but scared we'll get twins (lots of twins in my family) and end up with 5. Thanks in advance ladies!

*other information - I've been having butterflies and craving chocolate, coffee is not sounding good to me and I'm a 3 cup a day girl. Maybe I just have a bug?

i think i got a bfn this morning but I'm not sure since it's a blue-dye test and I don't trust them! There's like a shadow of a plus sign within the time frame so I don't know if I just tested too early or what. Who knows since I don't have my period yet! I will test again on Monday but it's just a little nerve-wracking. Still feeling a little crampy and butterflies.

Good luck with Monday's test! It's hard to know if the "weird" things you are feeling is ovulation, AF getting ready to show up for a visit, or if you are pg. If you do get a bfp on Monday, then I would go to the dr and they will probably do an ultrasound to check how far along you are.

Again, good luck!

thank you, that's what i was thinking.. i've never had an early ultrasound before just the 1/2 way mark but I always was having my period before getting pregnant too. Not as much cramping, just some butterflies and now a headache. We'll see what time will tell I guess.

it was a negative first response and still looks very very faintly positive on the blue dye + test.. I don't know why I'm even testing, if it happened when I think it may have then I'm still only like 8dpo

I've used the dollar store tests and they've all were accurate.

I've also used dollar store tests and they were accurate. They were also the pink dye (I hate blue dye too!) When I found out I was pregnant with my last, that is what I used and when I got a BFP I was around 4-5 weeks and my line was very faint! I took 3 or 4 to just be sure! LOL...

I took a digital yesterday and it was negative. I don't know, I still feel like I did early on with my last little one but who knows. I may have had a chemical pregnancy I hear or a number of things. I'll let you all know if I figure anything out.. if AF ever decides to show or what!
