bleeding almost 2weeks after her period

I am very concerend about my wife to be now...

She started her period on Sept.19...lasted for about a week...started bleeding again (strange)that began as brown to bright red for almost 2 weeks, then a slight brown...then nothing...we, well, she took an HPT and it BFN(-'ve)...could've been too early to test?!

She had pains while all this was occurring now it has diminished to lower abdomen and slightly her lower back...bleeding has stopped...her AF is due sometime this week or next week...should we test now or wait just a few more days??...I have been informed that it is possible that she could be pregnant...she has scheduled to see her doctor about this...

she doesn't know what is going on and I'm getting really worried, but I know I shouldn't add to it...I'm concerend that it could stil be an infection...Can you ladies who know more about this guide me and my "wife" here, please?!?!!?

I can understand your worried, the only thing i could say is get her into her OBGYN as soon as you can.Im sorry i know thats not much help but i think that is the best bet, try to relax.I would think if it was an infecthion that she would have a fever or something more.Sometimes our bodies just get out of wack for no reason.Mother Nature can be very strange at time LOL.Shes very lucky to have a Man who cares !!

That is very strange I must say. I am sorry to say i'm not sure though. Usually implantation is much lighter bleeding and certainly not 2 weeks long either. I think her visit to the doctor is deffinatly the best thing right now. Hopefully someone else comes along that may have a little bit of an idea of what this can be.

how intense is the pain? Is her pain tolerance pretty high? This sounds very much like a atopic pregnancy. This is very simular to what I went through with mine. I ended up going to the hospital with pain in my stomack and back. Not intence but very uncomfortable, my bleeding pattern was the same as you discribed. I went to the hospital because something just wasn't right "women's intuitan" After having an ultrasound it was clear that the tube has abrubted. The doctor told me that he has seen women coming in screaming in pain in the same situation. A atopic pregnancy is very dangerous so it would be best to go ASAP. Just to make sure!

Be who you are and say what you feel because those  who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Thank you for your reply...very much appreciated...

Her pain is less now and in the lower abdomen only...nothing else...

As I had said she will be going to see her doctor very soon...

There is a possibility that if your wife to be was on birth control then stopped taking it her cycle could have changed up. That happened to me once.

Actually, she has not been on the pill and has never taken it before!

Her pains now are abdomen pains and she says her bb's hurt like someone is squeezing them all the time...no, not me!

She took another HPT and this time it showed negative, but a very, very ,very faint line showed up for 1min...then it disappeared...we were both trying so hard to see if we were dreaming...should that happen on a HPT?! we thought it was very strange...

She has a GYN/doctor's appt. coming up in 5 days again...the first time she found nothing...will keep you posted...
