    Am I pregnant?
    My period was lasted 3 days, the first day & half was brown then red blood & the end was brown blood again! Before my period like a week & during my period my boobs & nipples were very sensitive & itchy! I also am having lower back pains very bad & I have been peeing a lot! I have been having a ton of headaches excpecailly in my tempels! Now that my period is over, I am still itchy & still having tons of headaches, and my boobs still hurt off & on! Am I pregnant?

    There is no way for us to tell you the answer to your question.

    What you need to do is wait to see if, and when, your next period comes. If you miss it, take a HPT using first morning urine.

    So there's no way to even probably suggest that I am?

    Not via the internet. Unless you pee on your keyboard. :p

    You see, early pregnancy symptoms tend to mimic premenstrual symptoms. The first true symptom of pregnancy is a missed period.

    Periods can be shorter, or longer, in duration for various reasons. It's also not uncommon to miss a period every once in a while, again for a variety of reasons.

    When I had my son, my period was for 3 days but very light then I had a missed period, that's why I posted this! I truly believe I am but I didn't know, I thought maybe someone could point me in the right direcion or something!

    Have you tried a HPT yet? I recommend the Clear Blue Easy Digital.

    I tried before my period & it said negative but it was veryyyy light! It was a dollar store brand, I used the digitals when I was pregnant with my son but my boyfriend won't buy me other one!

    I know this sounds corny but I took some online pregnancy test & a lot said yes or like 78% maybe! Are those accruate?

    Nope, not at all. Why? Because they can't detect the amount of HCG (pregnancy hormone) in your body.

    You actually tested too early. It's always best to wait until after you MISS a period to test.

    I figured, I told my boyfriend that it was to early but since I bought one he got mad! He wants me to wait, if I took one now would it show? My "period" started on the 2nd & ended on the 5th.

    Most likely it would still be too early. Wait and see what happens next month with your period.

    And what was the boyfriend angry about, that you spent money on the test

    Yes, he wanted me to wait but I didn't know that I was going to start my period after I took it! My period was late that's why I took one
