    Wondering about being pregnant
    My last period only lasted 2 days and it was really really light and barely there. I was kind of wondering if I was pregnant so I went online and looked it up and found out that, that was one of the very first signs of pregnancy. It said either completely missing your period or it being very light and lasting 1 to 2 days was a sign. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative but since my period was really light I'm still wondering if I could be pregnant but the pregnancy hormone wasn't detected yet. I also just got over a bladder infection so I was wondering if that could have thrown the test off and said negative when it was really postitive. I really want a baby and want to be pregnant so I just really want to know.

    It might still be too early for an accurate test. I'd wait another week or so and take another test.

    I took one on Friday so would still be too early to test again? I just really want to know I just hate waiting.

    When was your last period? Are you due for one in October still? It may have just been an off cycle.

    As justcurious55 said, it may have been too early. If you are due for a period soon, wait and see what happens and test if that expected one doesn't show.
    If you can't stand the wait, try one this weekend. If negative, you'll just have to wait till when the next period would normally be due.

    The bladder infection would not effect the test results however.

    OK I get my periods at the beginning of the month so the one that was really weird and questionable was the one I got this month. My usual periods last between 5 to 7 days and heavy so only getting for 2 days and it being very light was weird for me.
