Hi all, well it seems I might be in the right place, this is what is going on with me.My last period was on the 22nd of February, usually a couple of days before it is due the only symptoms I get is one sore b___st and a lot of discharge. My periods are very irregular, sometimes 29 days sometimes 36 days between eachother. My next period is due roughly around the end of this week start of next week, but for the last few days I have experienced the following: Dizziness, loss of appet_te, bloating, sore b___st (one hurts more than the other - but both sore and at times tingly) I have been going to the toilet a lot to pee and for bowel motions I am usually a once a day person, but I have been going twice a day for the last few days, then I had a one off bout of the runs which took me by surprise. Last weekend I was overly emotional, crying over nothing and it lasted all day and night, but I was fine the next day. I have a lack of energy, just cant be bothered doing anything when usually I am buzzing around here and there keeping busy. I cant sleep, the last few days I am lucky to get 4 hours per night, which is driving me crazy as I love my sleep. And I seem to be really ga__sy, moreso at nightime. I have had light cramping here and there for the last couple of days, which I dont usually have prior to a period. I have also had a lot of lower back pain.. On the 22nd of March (29 days after my last period) I started spotting, only when I wiped and only a couple of times. I put a pad on thinking it was going to show its true colours during the night, but the pad was clean. On the 23rd at around lunchtime it started again, a little heavier, so I used a tampon, when I removed an hour later it was covered but not a ma__sive amount, I had some clots but again nothing huge (the first few days of my periods are super heavy having to change every hour, with a lot of clotting). I used two tampons that day and a pad at night, the pad was still clean by the next morning. Saturday the 24th I decided to wear a pad all day to see and there was blood on it but nothing huge and I didnt even have to change it, again a clean pad the next morning and today being Sunday it is brown and hardly worth wearing a pad at all. I usually have a 5 day flow, heavy for the first 3 days, light on the 4th day and brown on the 5th. but this is just weird. All my symptoms stopped the day before my spotting started. I dont know what is happening or if this is cla__sed as 'normal'.. Any advice would be a great help :)

what does a two days period means?

Nishka, you have a lot of early preg signs, along with possible implantation spotting. Why not run a couple of home preg tests this weekend and next, using first morning pee. GL! Jummy, was your period on schedule or early. If early it could be implantation spotting and a test about a week from now has a chance of being accurate. If on sched it might just be decidual bleeding, and a test this weekend could show true. Do you not have any other early signs - fatigue, peeing, PMS acting weird?

Earlier I posted because I had had a short period. This month, I haven't started yet(I'm only a couple days late). I have had light cramping but nothing compared to what I usually get before a period. I have had a lot of the symptoms, but I don't know if thats just me wanting to be pregnant so I'm thinking them up or if they are for real. When should I test to see. Should I wait a while longer to see if I start?

I am going to the exact same thing as you are kcallister25 but except that I didn't get my period this whole month:/ and I already took a test at home and came up negative so idk what should I do?

 

Grandpa Viv - March 29

Callister, you could test this weekend and repeat next weekend if still in doubt. The light period a month ago is a bit of a puzzle - when did your symptoms start - if more than ten days ago you may be further along than you think. Melig, if you miss two periods and are still getting negative home tests, you should call your doc to get jump started, or diagnosed.

Grandpa Viv I'm a bit nervous now because last month my period only lasted 2 days and this month I didn't get it and both months I have already take the urine test and both were negative what could be wrong?

Heres an update on my situation, Like I stated prior my 'period' was about a day or two early BUT in saying that it is always irregular and never comes on the date I mark on the calender so I mark from 30 days to 36 days allowing alert time inbetween. As stated it was only a smear on the first day and only once when I wiped, there was nothing at all on my pad over night at all. I felt very queasy throughout the night while I was sleeping but didnt get sick, just repositioned myself and fell asleep again. The next day my 'period' was again there only when I wiped it was a pale pinkish colour but throughout the day seemed to get darker BUT still stayed very light I did use a tampon but only one side of it was covered but it wasnt soaked. That night I only had a smear on my pad, the next day was the same, I only wore a pad and it was just a smear, nothing overnight again! Now the day after that I had what seemed like orange jelly (sorry way too much info-but I am trying to get to the bottom of this), then it went away have had nothing since. Okay so I had heaps of weird symptoms about a week and a half prior to this happening, both b___sts sore and tingly, extremely bloated, emotional, couldnt sleep, indigestion, no appet_te, lower back pain, weird bowel motions etc. BUT once my 'period' came that all stopped, aside from the lower back pain, indigestion, and the bowel motions, one minute Im constipated then I have the runs (this stopped two days ago)(thank goodness). I am feeling fine at the moment, still have lower back pain though but its niggly and comes and goes. I did take a pregnancy test out of curiosity the day before my 'period' ended and it was negative. I have been feeling 'different' BUT dont want to get my hopes up just in case. Again to re-cap, my last period was on the 22nd of february and it was normal (heavy as it normally is) and lasted a full 5 days. I had intercourse with my partner on the 9th, 10th and 11th of March. And it was about a week or so after that I got all those symptoms, followed by my very weird 'period'. I am not sure if this will make a difference, but I have three children my youngest is 9 years old, so its been awhile since I have been pregnant and cannot remember what symptoms if any I had with them. Did I test too early, should I wait until my next period is due (whenever that maybe) to see if it comes.. Help me please I am so confused!!

Oh and I just wanted to add that if I had to measure the amount of 'bleeding' I had with my weird 'period' I would say it would be no more than a tablespoon! Also, can stress effect your periods (my periods have always been 5 days and heavy even if I was stressed) but could it happen because I am getting older, I am 37!

Melig, I doubt that you are pregnant, but I think you should see your gyno to find out why your periods are acting up. If you are on the pill, that could explain it. Nishka, test weekly until your next period is due. It's too early to be experiencing pre-menopausal stuff, but keep that possibility in mind too.

Ok I have more questions this past Aug I had my son so my period is a little wacky yet but this month I havent gotten one at all have had the usual symptoms irritation b___st tenderness nausea and all but I have taken 2 tests and they say negative 2 weeks apart but yesterday I finally got what seemed to be my period but it was just a brown spot so light it actually looked watered down? And I put a pad on for the night but still nothing except the watered down light spots not even enough color to ruin my underwear? Any clues as to whats going on?

 

melig - March 30

Tha is weird because im not on any pill and my husband and I are been trying but idk what's wrong...last year during December I went to the Dr. To get the serum test because I didn't get my period for 3 months and the results were negative and now this year I only got my period 2 days on February. Somehow I just gained a lot of weight and my period turned irregular because a year back I wouldn't have thinq problem

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for only about a month now. My periods have always been regular, lasting at least 5 days and quite heavy for at least 3 of the 5. However, this last month, my period only last two days and was so light, I was totally confused. I didn't have any of my normal period symptoms (like extreme cramping or migraines). I took a test the day after the bleeding started and it had a VERY faint positive line but I haven't had any other symptoms of pregnancy and I don't want to get my hopes up taking another test unless it will be worthwhile...what do you think?

 

Grandpa Viv - March 31

Usumom, if you had a faint positive and are indeed pregnant, the line should be stronger next time. The hormone doubles every few days. You have a significant change in menstrual symptoms and are ttc. That should be enough to keep your hopes up. GL!
