Hi Everyone,
I am sorry to ask this... But, I am very confused... The first day of my last period was August 13, 2007.. so.. I took an ovulation test on August 27 and it showed that I was ovulating (or would in 24-36 hours) So my husband and I had sex 8/25 - 8/27 - 8/28 8/30 and 8/31 so since approx the 8/31 I have felt nauseous but not to the point where I want to throw up (just like I have an empty stomach) I also have this metallic taste in my mouth every time I swallow, I have had some mild cramps on the right side near my ovary (that area) and on September 2nd I started have very very very minimal bleeding it is very light pink and at another time it was minimal brown mucous time discharge only when I wiped.. that only lasted like 1 or two days BUT... now it only happens after I have a bowel movement... which has been difficult also... which I NEVER spot.. EVER I am regular every 28 days and my period is usually medium to heavy.. as far as food I have not been eating well I am not in the mood to eat very much but I have been craving chips and salty foods... but my boobs are not tender at all I am just confused I feel like I am pregnant but I took at test on September 4 and Septmeber 6 and it came back negative... I also have been tired and moody crying for no reason sometimes and snapping other times.. This trying to conceive is confusing and kind of depressing... does anyone have any ideas is it just too early to check for pregnancy or could I just definitely not be pregnant. If anyone could write back and give me some advice I would appreciate it. Thanks :D

It is probably too early to tell. Most tests won't show a positive until you have completely missed your period. Wait until you are 7-10 days late to take another test. The spotting and cramping sounds like you could be pregnant. As for the other "symptoms" most women won't get any pregnancy symptoms unitl they are 6 weeks along or more. Unfortunately you have to endure the horrific 2 week wait like we all have to. Just relax and try not to think about it every second of the day (easier said than done I know). The more you stress the more it will affect your body. If you aren't pregnant it could delay your period, giving you even more unwanted stress. Good luck and hopefully you are pregnant. Let us know how the testing goes. Remember to just try to be patient! I didn't get a positive on a test until I was 10 days late, and it was only a faint line. If you don't think you can wait that long you can request a blood test from your doc, but you should still wait until you are at least 5 days late to do this. My doc wouldn't do a blood test that early.
