Yes, that could have been implantation bleeding because you did have sex around the time you should have ovulated. Its best to take a pregnancy test just to be sure.

I took a HPT last night before I went to sleep it said negative, should I try again in a week or so

You should wait another 4-5 days and try again. Sometimes the HPT can't detect the HCG that early on.

OK so you really think that's what it is? I'm stressin I have a 13 month already, and my boyfriend now is looking stuff up online and there isn't nothing else, because when I thought I was getting my period it was brown then a light pink then went away all in 30 minutes it was scary

I forgot to add next time you test to use your first morning urine. The pregnancy hormone is higher then.

You need to do apregnancy test in the MORNING with the first morning urine

Implanation bleeding has not been proven either direction.
It's equally possible that you just had an "off" period (which happens to all of us occasionally) or that you're pregnant.
If you didn't get a positive HPT for you son, then I'd get my butt into the doctor for a blood test if I were you.
And if you don't want to get pregnant, get your butt on birth control while you're there.
IloveMySon
Mar 25, 2008, 04:14 PM
Well I was on birth control but I didn't wait as long as my doc told me to we had unprotected sex and I came hom and realized I missed my pill for that night
And this brown stuff has never happened to me before

When is your period actually due?
IloveMySon
Mar 25, 2008, 04:17 PM
It was supposed to come last Wednesday, because I was on Birth control but the night we had sex I forgot my pill, and its supposed to start at the beginning of the off week on the pill, which would b 6 days ago

Well, seeing as how you missed a pill, this could have thrown your period off. But since you are only 6 days late, this is not really considered late in the medical community even for the most regular woman. Now, add that you have started oral contraceptives. Your period just may have been thrown off track.
If you are concerned you need to take another pregnancy test using first morning urine only. If it comes up negative, wait a week and take another one.
J_9 whats the last message mean it says threads merge
It means you posted the same question twice and got different answers. I merged the answers together as it is not necessary to post questions twice

OK well maybe it was just thrown off I hope, I already have a 13 month old don't quite need another right now, I am a single parent so ill pray

When I had the same problem I went to my doctors in the afternoon done a pregnancy test and it was negative but I wasn't so sure that evening I went to tesco got another test ( pack of 2 ) and done it before I went to bed it was again negative, I then spoke to my partner about it and he said its better to be safe than sorry do one more in the morning if its negative then we will agree with it... I done the pregnancy test and it come up positive, you really do need to do the test in the morning I promise u, if your worried or uncertain go to your GP or local drop in clinic they will do a pregnancy test and if its negative they will do tests for other things ( don't take that in the wrong way though please )
Good luck! Let us know how you get on! :) Sinead

Bottom line, if you don't want another child then use birth control. Don't forget to take your pill, maybe use a condom as well so that you can be sure.
Carelessness when using birth control results in pregnancy.
I wish you the best and hope it turns out the way you want.
COOKIE MONSTER
Mar 25, 2008, 04:35 PM
If you can't remember to take your birth control pills maybe you should try something else like the depo injection or the coil,or the bar or the pill patch there are so many I'm not going to list them all but I'm asingle mum of 2 myeldest is 2 years old and my youngest is 5months I'm on the depo because with all the stuff I have to do during the day I forget to take any meds I was on antibiotics for ajaw infection and I forgot to take afew and had to be put on more because it didn't clear up because I had forgotten to take them
This goes with birth control pills if you forget to take them you will get pregnant and you should have taken the morning after pill because you forgotten the birth control its common sense hun
IloveMySon
Mar 25, 2008, 04:36 PM
Well everyone keeps saying morning is the best so I will do that in like a week, that's when I did mine wit my son I have now in the morning and 2 lines popped up very quickly
Sinead_s
Mar 25, 2008, 04:42 PM
Well if uve done it before then you should really know its common sense hun!
If you don't want any more kids I suggest you get your arse to the doctors and get some birth control! Uve made the mistake before so you should have learnt then!
How hard is it to take a pill every day? Or how long does it take to just slip a condom on him? Not long at all and don't use the excuse I've heard a 1000 times before ( it ruins the moment ) because you can use contraception in an adventurous way!
Have fun enjoy your life you don't want to be tied down with 10 kids do u?
Because if you keep having un protected sex darlin that's what your guna ave!
Sorry to be so sharp about it but its just common sense! X

You me and my BF were talking about the patch
COOKIE MONSTER
Mar 25, 2008, 05:02 PM
The patch has a lot of unwanted side affects plus adesired weight for it because it says and I quote ''IF YOU ARE OVER BLAH BLAH POUNDS IT MITE NOT WORK AS WELL'''
I took 1 look at ''mite not work as well'' and went back to the doctors because to me ''mite not work as well'' means you will get pregnant,why didn't they just put that?
I'm on the injection it doesn't hurt [i hate needles and was dreading it] but it doesn't hurt at all I get the shot every 3months and I don't have to worrie about any more little me's turning up lol

By looking at your dates it seems like u could be pregnant because u have more chance that u ovulate(produce an egg) around the 21st day after your period.take care

Well when can I take a HPT how far along do u got to b for a HPt?
bekah876
Mar 26, 2008, 10:52 AM
Wait to take a hpt after your missed period. There are some hpt tests out there that claim they can tell you if you are pregnant before your missed period but for more accurate results it is best to wait until you have missed your period. Also, why spend the money if you haven't yet missed a period. Best of luck.
IluvProjects
Mar 26, 2008, 10:56 AM
I would be at the store already buying a test! Some tests can determine pregancy as early as 7 days before you are expected to have a period. How accurate they are is debatable that early. But you have had a good month between your periods, SO I would say get one today and find out. If it is negative I wouldn't get to excited just yet. I would repeat it in a week if still no period. However, I would have to do one today. I don't think I could wait. I believe if you are pregnant it should show up, it has been over a month since the start of your last period. Good Luck.

OK another question about my issue, its now march 27th, still no period, but test keep saying negative, I took one this morning?
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:56 AM
It's time to go to the doctor and get a blood test.
I will say this. You are obviously very stressed about this, and that could also be the reason that your period is delayed. If the test still says negative then you probably aren't pregnant, but you have to put your mind at ease once and for all.
Good Luck.
IloveMySon
Mar 27, 2008, 08:22 AM
I'm not to stressed about it, but like I have said later in this blog that wit my son it took forever to get a positive on a home test, I kind of in a way want to have a baby!! I think I will be disappointed if I am not but thankful at the same time if that makes sense

Mar 27, 2008, 08:59 AM
After reading the entire questions and answers. I have a question for you. When did you start your birth control pills? And did you miss more than just that one night's pill, or were you off on other ones too. If you just started taking the pill, your period maybe messed up because of that. When you had the brown spotting that you thought might be implantaion bleeding where were you in your pill pack? Was that your period week?
I think all that information is need to really figure out where you are at in your cycle.
IloveMySon
Mar 27, 2008, 09:05 AM
I was on the pill for 16 days, I missed Friday nights pill which was the night we had unprotected sex, I was never really on time wit my pills, and when I had the brown to pink bleeding, it was supposed to be my period week but it never came after I had that. I think I answered all
IloveMySon
Mar 27, 2008, 09:05 AM
They told me to wait 2 months before having unprotected sex to but I did not
IluvProjects
Mar 27, 2008, 12:23 PM
You said you did a pregnancy test this am- So I am assuming that was with your first morning urine. If it was going to be positive, I think It would have been. So you could wait a week and then repeat the test. I think that the spotting stuff that you had was your period- I believe it was messed up because of the pill. However, if you really want to know, I would simply call you doctor's office explain the situation and see what they have to say. They may think doing a blood draw to make sure would be the best route.
I think they tell you to wait 2 months when you start the pill just to be absolutely safe. If they didn't tell you that and people started to have unprotected sex from the first day on the pill I think that the pill would have a much higher failure rate than it does. And everybody's bodies react differently to different hormones. Maybe you respond well and the pill could be effective within the first 2 weeks of taking it. My guess is that the pill did stop you from ovulating (which is what it is supposed to do) and so you wouldn't have been able to get pregnant.
Are you still taking the pill? If so, maybe you want to talk to the doctor anyway, if by some odd chance you were pregnant you wouldn't want to cause any damage to the developing baby by continuing to take it.
Good luck

I still haven't started mine yet.. so I didn't have a period in march so I guess I will start in April. But the blood test came back negative, so Iam not pregnant. Maybe your period is messed up because you messed up on your because?

Well all I'm going to say is when you first posted you said you wasn't ready for another baby because your first is 13 months old,then you said that you new that you had to do atest in the morning with morning urine but yet you still did the test at night
I personally think you have your hands full with 1 child and you have to think about if you get pregnant what are you going to do if you and your boyfriend break up? Its bloody hard bringing 2 kids up on your own believe me I know I have to doit everyday and I've been really close to cracking up and I've been SO STRESSED
You really don't want another yet its to soon if I could have chosen when mysecond was going to get hear it would have been in 3 or 4 years when myeldest would be at school

I bet it is. No need to suffer, go to your OBGYN. Let us know how it goes, and ask the doctor if you can start your birth control again. I wouldn't have unprotected sex, or even have sex period until you have this all under control. Even though you are going back and forth on the baby thing, you don't want to get pregnant while there are health issues, it wouldn't end well. Take care, let us know. Good luck.

I am glad you found out what is wrong. And cyst are awful I have been having them since Dec. They won't give you meds for it they say it has to go away on their on and will sometimes burst, like yours. My first ones did and I could not even move I was in so much pain. They will just want you to check back in 3 months to make sure they are gone. I have not had a period since Jan because of mine and had to be put on because to make them go away. I was also very bloated to the point where it was extremely uncomfortable to sit down. Sex will also make them hurt worse .I wish you luck and hope you get to feeling better.
