I found out I am pregnant about a week ago. Am meeting with my doctor this week, but I am on my period now. Does that mean I'm not pregnant? Also, How do I deal with a baby daddy who doesn't want anything to do with me?

Check out this internet research on bleeding during pregnancy... it is not your period. This post will explain it. i would suggest you talk to you doctor as well about the bleeding.

As for the father, he didn't abstain from the sexual experience, therefore he is just as responsible for this baby as you are. The good thing is being a mother comes natural to most women, and a live in father is not necessary. Does it make things easier? More than likely yes, but there are many women who are single mothers doing just fine.
Remember the father is responsible, therefore child support is an option for you to explore, unless there's reason for you to fear for yourself or your baby.

Thank you so much, homebirthmom. I am 19 years old, and very scared and unsure of what to expect.

I am a 39 year trying to get pregnant.
My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant. I ovulated on 10-25. I was due to start my period on 11-4. I had only spotting only when I wipped. This went on for 4 days. I got up this morning to go to the bathroom and the spotting was a little heavier. Now I am confused. Was it implantation bleeding or what?

Very well could be. I've never had implantation bleeding. You won't know until you get a positive test. You are going to be 6 days late tomorrow. That is plenty of time to get an accurate answer. Good luck!
