Mummyof3 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Hey,So basically I'm 34, have 3 kids, partner is due for a vasectomy soon.I'm on the pill, take it religiously, however my last normal period was about 1.5-2m ago, I thought I had my period a few weeks ago but it was (tmi sorry) dark brown and stringy, that disappeared after 4ish days. My breasts have continued to be sore and achy which is unusual after a period. I also have some cramping and feel like my period is coming on, just hasn't happened yet.I guess what I'm asking is, does anyone think I could be pregnant, or more so, are there other issues I should be looking into... I.e early menopause.Getting a test tonight to eliminate pregnancy, but my head is full of every scenario!Thank you for any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenbean Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Breathe.Sometimes periods are weird. One weird month does not mean early menopause.But yes it might mean pregnancy. So I would wait for the results of that and then take it from there. Best of luck for whatever you wish for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie28 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 You might be but it is unlikely if the OCP is being taken properly, and it sounds like you were doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nom_de_plume Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 To be blunt - have you had sex since your last menstrual period? If yes, you might be pregnant.If no, and you have a negative pregnancy test, then further investigation with your GP may be warranted.

Mummyof3 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 Well I took a first response test just before and I'm pregnant. 2nd line came up before the test line.I'm thinking I should do another after incase of a false positive, if that can happen.

Phillipa Crawford Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I've been there. It was No3 for us.Total disbelief.At least you were brave enough to look yourself.I peed on the stick and handed it to him, then lay on the bed with my eyes shut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsLaurie Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Have you floated the possibility with him yet or have you kept your suspicions/worries internal?How did you feel when you saw the additional line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummyof3 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 I was going to wait to test till he came home but I just had to know then and there.He's definitely aware, something we have been speaking about, I already booked a dr appt for the weekend.He will be supportive no matter what thankfully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummyof3 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 Phillipa, can't say I blame you!! If I wasn't so impatient I would've done the same.MsLaurie, It shocked me, I actually didn't expect it, suspicious but didn't think it could be true.

IamtheMumma Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 What a shock to the system. Be kind to yourself. I'm glad your partner is supportive. Maybe this will spur him along to get the snip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
