I’m confused and don’t know if I’m pregnant, my doctor is missing my pregnancy somehow, if I’m having a chemical pregnancy, or a miscarriage. I’ve seen too many stories of women going through similar, just to find out later that they were indeed pregnant.

Let me start from the beginning so you can understand why this isn’t a typical situation.

Last June, I discovered I was pregnant after missing my cycle, despite having cramps like it was coming, there were no common symptoms or issues like being turned of by smells, morning sickness, etc, except for constipation throughout my pregnancy and a few zits (which I never get) at the beginning of my missed cycle. I had a healthy baby boy who had zero issues according to my OB’s tests. I had some spotting and bleeding during my early first trimester but it was always after sex with my now fiancé. We decided to be more careful in positioning and the bleeding stopped. For context, my pregnancy test had a very faint 2nd line 16 days after my missed cycle and my HcG levels were somewhat low but became normal after my baby developed a fetal pole.

I was 39 years old with my first pregnancy and considered “high risk”, but my OB didn’t treat me as such. From what I understand from friends several posts on social media, I was supposed to be examined every 2 weeks. I think this and stress ultimately led to the loss of my son at 18 weeks (September), which my primary care doctor said was caused by a UTI after reviewing my test results. Despite demanding a new OB, I never got one and my baby died OF ALL THE SIMPLEST PREVENTABLE THINGS. A freaking UTI! 💔 I ended up being prescribed a blood thinner because a rare platelet disorder surfaced while I was in the hospital for 2 weeks (I make too many platelets resulting in clots). This is something I’ve never known until after my pregnancy loss and the hospital confirmed this wasn’t the cause. Another detail: I went to a different hospital for my pregnancy loss and they were extremely better than where my former OB had rights to deliver. This hospital was WAY better and made sure I was well with no infections etc after almost 3 weeks of extremely meticulous care, unlike the previously hospital that basically sent me home to die and catch my son falling out. 💔💔💔 Thank God my now fiancé was there, or I’d still be screaming in that bathroom. 😢😔

Fast forward to now August ‘26. I missed my cycle despite having cramps like it was coming. I got all the same symptoms again, along with a slight cramp that never changes and it’s about where the right side of my uterus sits (I’m guessing this is where the baby is; the same happened last year but it was on the right side which is where my baby was).

My fiancé and I have had sex a few times last week and the spotting started, as expected. I usually wear a liner and the spotting started out red, then pink (blood and clear discharge), then brown with clear discharge (old blood). I had positive pregnancy test 😊😊 on Monday which was during my missed cycle. I changed to a pad while at work, and the pad got soaked! I set an appointment for next Friday as a new patient with an OB from the hospital that cared for me during my pregnancy loss. The spotting began to dry up yesterday (Tuesday), and I tested again but it was negative. 🤔

My Fiancé and I had sex again yesterday and I told him we need to be careful because I was spotting like I did last year. He started out extremely careful, and barely used any penetration until we got a little too heated and ended up in the exact position we needed to AVOID. 😂 Annnd, the spotting started again. By this morning, it started getting more heavy. I asked my OB’s office if I should go to the hospital and they just said to come to the office this afternoon. The nurse/midwife who saw me today was telling me that she thinks this is a chemical pregnancy, this could be my period despite the fact it was supposed to happen last week, offered to do an exam, and said if this is non-viable then I’m likely to get pregnant with the next few weeks. I requested a blood test in addition to the exam. As soon as the speculum touched my cervix, I bled immediately!! This makes me think my cervix is bleeding and nothing else. My labs should come back with 1 - 2 days. My urine test was negative.

I never have heavy periods or late periods, it always comes in sync with my period predictor calendar. I still feel the same consistent cramp from when I tested positive that doesn’t change no matter how much I fart, poop, 😂 and have bled. My stomach is still firm and poking out, just like last year. I’ve seen others who have experienced this and found they were indeed pregnant, and I’ve seen some who either had a miscarriage or a chemical/non-viable pregnancy.

My mom has also had “missed pregnancies” with my older sister where she “had a period as big as Dallas (her exact quote 😂, and me where she thought she had the flu. 🤣🙂‍↔️

I keep wondering “Am I pregnant or not???” and I’m trying not to stress about it. Has anyone had a similar experience? Did you turn out to be pregnant or not? If you were pregnant, did your baby make it all the way?

I would love to have my rainbow baby, however I don’t want to get my hopes up if this turns out that isn’t a pregnancy. Losing my son was traumatic, devastating, and took a long time to heal from physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Any answers and insight anyone has would give me information to help me stop overthinking and worrying. Thank you in advance. 💜

so i last had unprotected sex on july 13th and i thought i started my period on august 14th but ive been spotting brown, red, and pink for about 5 days now. last cycle i spotted for like 4 days and then started my actual period after those 4 days but im now on day 5 of this and no actual period. i’ve been under a lot of stress, i will say i took many tests and i took a final test about 25 days after sex w first morning urine, but i’m still worried about pregnancy. any input? also i have extremely irregular cycles

Last cycle I had unprotected intimacy on day 8 and 22 and it was for 5mins and ejaculation was done after putting on condom! Then I got severe cramps on my period due date and i had bright red/ red bleeding for 2 days and bleeding stopped from day 2! It was light bleeding like i just had half pad each day but i had severe clots! Like too many and heavy clots till day 4! But my boob pain isn’t going away and i am on day 14 of this new cycle! Could I be pregnant?

My periods are usually lighter!

I am day 16DPO and these are all the times I had unprotected sex. I’m supposed to start my period but no period , also all the test that I’ve took all negative, and recently got my iud taken out July 31st. So should I just wait until Friday to take test? Go get a blood test? Any advice? (Flo calander in the comments)

Hii im 19 and I came here cuz i cant calm myself down anymore.This month ive done the deed protected ofc cuz i have ocd and im scared for my life to get pregnant but genuinely im so scared,my period didnt started yet it should start on 26 august but im having weird ahh symptoms and idk if those are from anxiety.When i think abt being pregnant i feel it in my stomach and my stupid brain think that its the intuition thats talking.Lately i had some problems with my kindneys like burning when i pee but fast forward i took some tests and i dont have an uti but i feel some weird abdominal pain and genuinely im so scared I wanna die.Idk why am i like this ,i always protect myself ,i check the condom after to see if it broke or anything,as always nothing bad happened but I convinced myself that im pregnant.Im so stupid i thought it leaked from the sides but thats impossible.If someone can help me and give me a good comforting word that would be really appreciated:((also sorry for bad english

Ps:I thought abt abortion but I live in Romania and there are not a lot of sources and Im scared to tell someone or my parents cuz in case something happens idk if they will force me to keep it(they are not against abortions but im still scared)

I’m in my period week of my FIRST birth control pack. Feirza 1-20 Mg-McG. It’s day 7 of my period and I had sex last night, no condom and he finished in me. Is it likely that i’m pregnant? Should I take a Plan B?

I’m 17 DPO but my pregnancy tests are still showing a very faint positive. I’m now 4 days late.

I’m 37 and been TTC for 10 months now. Feeling a little worried bcs I’ve experienced a chemical pregnancy back in April.

Has anyone else experienced something similar, where the line stayed faint around this time?

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice/reassurance.
My girlfriend’s period was expected to start around August 10, according to the Stardust app.

Today is August 19, and she still hasn’t gotten her period, so she’s currently about 10 days late.

We did have a brief moment of unprotected sex on August 2. It lasted around 30 seconds, and then we stopped and used protection afterward. There was no ejaculation during the unprotected portion.

Today (August 19) she woke up at 9:40 AM, and then she took a First Response pink-line pregnancy test at around 10:00 AM, while she was at work. The result was negative. She didn’t use her first-morning urine, though.

Should she take another test on Sunday (August 23) using her first-morning urine? And should we trust the negative?

17f, last protected intercourse with my partner is on Aug 3. I'm supposed to have my period on Aug 10 pero wala, we already try the black coffee and pineapple juice and all we get is cramps and discharge. My anxiety is getting worse because Ive never been this delay. What should I do?am I pregnant?

Hello, I just need someone to talk to with my situation right now.

I had unprotected sex and we use the withdrawal method, he pull it out and masturbate before he ejaculate we never try it again as we are afraid. After 48hrs I take the trust pill and use the yuzpe method. Until now, I don't have period even if I expected it to come on Aug 12-16.

Is there a chance that I'm pregnant because I'm delayed or it's because the pills I takee. Right now, I feel my lower abdomen and back hurts especially morning and I have this tiredness.

Does reusing condom too risky? Checked if there was leaks, but none. We used the condom for the first round, but we stopped and didn’t finish coz i was really scared. He’s drunk. What if it slipped. But anyway, the condom remained intact and there’s no ejaculation happened. Later in the evening, we used it again. Checked it first but there’s no leaks i was to stupid ik, but we did it. We reused it then he pulled out and masturbate. He ejaculated outside and there I checked if there are leaks with the condom, but thankfully there’s none. I searched it and then i found out that it’s too risky knowing that condom can only be used once please enlighten me.

I F22 went out to a club with some friends two weeks ago. Here I met a M31.
Long story short, me and him had sex. He finished inside me. He had a big load too, cause I had never seen so much cum dripping out of my vagina before.
I took a plan b pill the day after.

I was supposed to get my period three days ago. Still nothing. Could I be pregnant??

Hello, I am going through a period of very severe anxiety because I am afraid of being pregnant. I am taking the contraceptive pill, Ludéal Gé specifically. My anxiety is so intense that several times, instead of taking just one pill, I have taken two for irrational reasons such as, “What if I didn’t swallow it properly?” or “What if I dropped it on the floor while taking it without realizing it?”

I also take pregnancy tests very regularly, including a blood test a few days ago that came back negative. However, I am worried that taking several extra pills may have affected the result and that the test could actually be positive.

I would therefore like to know whether taking an excessive amount of birth control pills can affect or interfere with the results of a pregnancy test.

I had unprotected sex on the 5th/6th day of my cycle but he didn’t ejaculate inside + he peed before and wiped clean. My cycles are usually 28 to 40 days so I’m estimating ovulation will come after sperm has died in my cervix but I’m worried my ovulation will come early because I noticed a little bit of clear slimy mucus is there a chance of fertilisation?? IDW to get after morning pill if possible because my parents are home and I don’t want to risk them knowing

Going through a tough pregnancy scare with my partner. Share your experiences and if you did get periods, how delayed was it?

I haven't had my period yet for this month and I am very worried.

For context I went through a really rough patch in my life that caused me to have 2 periods in May. For the entire month of June I didnt get my period so on June 26 I took 2 pregnancy tests and both came out negative. I got relieved because I did get my period on July 2 but now the month is almost over and I still haven't gotten my period.

Is there a chance that I'm pregnant? I'm worried I was wrong about the 2 pregnancy tests or that the period I had on July 2 wasn't a period at all.

Hi everyone,so me and my partner had sex on the third with a condom and no holes or breakages or anything.

Her period should have came the 14th,or so we think.She was on the pill till about maybe 6months back and her periods wasn't really all over the place.3months back it was on tje 24th,and the last 2 the 14th.She has soreness and tenderness at her lower parts and she doesn't feel well,as well a bit of cramps every now and then.Thats her normal period signs but no period.Its been like this for like 4days now.We tested yesterday during the day and negative.This morning and its negative.Its been 16 days since we last did it so i believe we are safe from preg.What can be going on with her? Also she also stopped taking her anti depression pills this month

De vez em quando tenho relação em que o início ocorre sem preservativo, penetração desprotegida por uns 30 seg e depois colocamos camisinha até o final, sem ejaculação dentro.
Minha menstruação nunca foi regular, sempre veio em dias diferentes, as vezes muito outras pouco.
Porém ela está atrasada, tô inchada, fome (comi mto doce ultimamente), cólicas, soltando muitos gases e com o intestino mais solto. Mas ontem veio um pouco de sangramento em sangue vivo e tinha uns pequenos coágulos, achei que era menstruação mas hoje acordei cedo e não tinha nada.
Já estou paranoica, fiz até o teste do toque do colo do útero, vejo sempre como tá meu muco, ontem pra hoje meu muco tá grudento e um branco meio amarelado e hoje tá ficando mais grosso e sentindo cólica.
De acordo com o app que eu usava minha menstruação tá atrasada há 8 dias, até desinstalei pq tava me deixando muito ansiosa.

Hey everyone, looking for some insights or experiences from others who track cycles closely. My girlfriend's period was predicted by her app to arrive on Sunday, August 16, but today is August 19 and it still hasn't started yet.

​Here is her period tracking history from the past few months for context:

​April: Started April 4.

​May: Started May 1, then again on May 25 (24-day cycle)

​June: Started June 25 (31-day cycle)

​July: Started July 19 (24-day cycle — 5 days earlier than usual)

​August (Predicted): App predicted August 16 based on a standard 28-day calculation.

We had protected sex during her cycle. I used a condom the entire time, AND I pulled out before finishing (completed outside of her). There were no visible tears, breaks, or leaks with the condom. So I'm certain that she's not pregnant hopefully.

​My Questions:

​Since her July period came 5 days early (July 19), does it make sense that her body reset its internal clock from July 19 rather than sticking to the app's static calendar prediction?

​If we count a normal 30- to 32-day cycle from July 19, that puts her expected period right around August 18–21, meaning today (August 19) is technically only Day 31 of her cycle. Has anyone else experienced a longer cycle right after an unusually short one?

​Given that we used both condoms and the pull-out method correctly, how likely is it that this delay is just natural cycle variance/stress rather than pregnancy?

​Would love to hear if others have had similar cycle shifts after an early period!
