tennisstar88 agony auntThen go to a different doctor. What kind of doctor have you been seeing? Your regular doctor? You have to go to your gyno, for them to give you a blood test to see if your pregnant, then tell them about your irregular period so they can give you an exam, then place you on birth control to regulate your period.

dmartin89 agony auntIf the last time you had sex was 6 months ago, the foetus would be approx 24 weeks and 12 inches long (about 3 times the length of a grapefruit). This may be easy to disguise if you are very overweight. But it will stick out like a sore thumb is you are of a healthy size.

When I was pregnant, I KNEW it. I didn't keep anything down for 2 months and I lost 28lbs by the time i was 11 weeks.

Although this is not the same for everyone.

I highly doubt that you are pregnant. Women who are pregnant and bleeding, experience a constant spotting because she is getting small tears in her rapidly expanding uterus. They would not get a little bleeding once a month, because there is no uterine lining to shed, they are not releasing eggs while they are pregnant.

Do you want to be pregnant? Its nothing to be ashamed of if you do.

When women desperately have the urge to be pregnant, their bodies create the symptoms of pregnancy, and if you are looking out for these signs it can be very noticeable. It is called hysterical pregnancy syndrome. Because the woman wants it so much, her body will mimic what she is subconsciously telling it to do.

(Just to let you know, I am a pregnancy and birth professional)

Those pee sticks are just about as accurate as a blood test. It measures the same thing; the level of the hormone HCG in your body. When it is above a certain amount the test will be positive. This amount should be found 2 weeks after conception.

If you do go to a doctor (which you should) he will only do a pee test to start with, if it is negative, he will not do any further tests.

Tiredness and abdominal bloating can be down to many simple things such as dehydration. But also other things like poly-cycstic-ovarian syndrome.

Good luck, let us know how you get on x

Mjfbla agony auntFind a Planned Parenthood around you. You can get insurance through them so everything is free. You can go on their site and ask questions. They will test you for STD and your parents will never be notified. I doubt you are pregnant...but something seems wrong so go!

You might be putting on weight because it's cold at the moment where you live, or it could be stress from all this worrying.

If you took a test your should be fine, also I think it would be very visible if you were 6months pregnant. If I were you I'd take another test to put your mind at ease.

You may also want to get checked for stis

I think that's really odd that you had your period and still think you're pregnant, but I guess it is a possibility.. Weight gain and tiredness aren't necessarily indicators, neither is bloatedness or a full stomach, but of course have it checked out as you did have sex and unprotected nonetheless.

smiliek agony auntwas 6months ago the last time you had sex? If so you'd know if you're pregnant and have alot more symptoms. Usually tests will show within a wk of a missed period, so approx 2-6wks into a pregnancy. Doesnt sound like you are. But you'll need a blood test to confirm, not a wee test.

Plexi agony auntHun, go to your doctor or school nurse. Yes it is possible. false negative tests are common but false positive aren't so common. Some women do experience spotting during the early stages of pregnancy. You really need to get this confirmed by a professional so you can start making decisions and so that you can start taking care of your body and the baby you might be carrying. You should be on prenatal vitamins, avoid all alcohol,caffeine, cigarettes and any drugs and of course ensure that your diet consists of healthy whole foods.

Good luck sweets..............HUGS!

tennisstar88 agony auntHow many pregnancy test have you taken? Those tests are fairly accurate. I don't know I'm not a doctor, so I can't tell if you are or aren't. Go to a Planned Parenthood in your area, or any woman's clinic and request a pregnancy test, even a blood test to confirm if you are or are not pregnant.
