    3 weeks late, read and respond.
    I was on birth control for 7 years... and I stopped taking it regularly last June... I would take it randomly when I felt the need to but I ended up giving up because I can't remember it ever and the pill actually started to make me gag... I have been off the pill officially and completely for 3 months... in November I had 2 periods... December I had 2 periods... and January 5th - 10th was my last period (and it was on and off during those days)... and it is now February 21st... my boyfriend and I have been using the pull out method and since he moved here at the end of December we have been doing that multiple times a week and sometimes multiple times a day... January 20th I had spotting (like 2 drips)... and then I had minor cramping for over a week... then about 5 days after that I had a surge of leaking cervical mucus which freaked me out because I have never had flesh colored looking watery mucus before... and now I am almost 3 weeks late... and I have taken soooo many tests- all negative... the only symptoms I have is no period, had spotting a month ago, tiredness, headaches here and there, hungry all the time, been constipated a lot, peeing all the time (but I pee all the time anyway which is why I'm wondering if my urine is diluted so the tests come out negative), and gained some weight (grr)...

    could I be pregnant?

    Make sure you are taking the tests using first morning urine. If they still come out negative, you need to have a blood test done by your doctor.

    I did one in the morning also... most of the others were at night... I read if you have an over active bladder your urine is most likely diluted... I pee about 10 times a day sometimes more and I pee in the middle of the night... I've been like this as long as I have ever known... I'm planning on getting a blood test soon (I just never get a day off from work).. I understand you can't give me a medical diagnosis since it's the internet and all.. I just was wondering- based on what you have read about my case and what you have seen in your expertise- what chance there is that I am pregnant...

    I'm sorry, but I can't give you a chance of whether you are pregnant or not. You will need to see your doctor. With your urinary condition, a blood test would be more accurate.
