Hi, my lmp was on July 31st and it ranges from 23-27 days. What didn't seem like a period came on 8/26(around the time expected), but it was med-very light brown, and it lasted 4 days. When it ended I started cramping in lower abdom. and around that area felt heavy, and my breasts became tender. I kind of ignored it, but it continued and in addition I am a little bloated, constantly hungry, not even an hour after eating. I am also urinating alot and now cramping is on and off, but more on than off. I also feel sick on & off like I'm about to have a cold, and I am tired, but still can't sleep until very early morning, and then wake up 9-10 am not really tired. As of 9/7 my nipples are more sensitive,my breasts a bit are larger, but the left one is noticeably larger than the right(claims my husband). I went to a clinic today 9/10, but got neg. results. Why would this be, when I have all these symptoms? Is it too early to know if I'm pregnant? What could be wrong? When should I test again? Sorry I have so many questions. Thanx in advance :)

Hmmm. Interesting. What's your normal mentral cycle...is it 28 days and regular? Do you always ovulate around the same time every month? The only reason I ask is because if your lmp was 7/31 and you conceived when you ovulated next, then I would have to say that your HcG levels should be high enought to test positive. You should be at least 6 weeks I would think. Was your pg test a urine or blood test? However, if your lmp was 8/26 and you conceived when you ovulated next, it may be too early to test. I really need to know what your cycles are like to comment any further.

Hope everything works out for you.

Hi,

My cycle ranges b/t 23-27 days, but usually comes 26-27 days. I don't know when I ovulate, I don't pay attention. My pg test was urine, which I took at a clinic. I am not sure if I should go back on 9/17 as advised by the clinic, because a real period should come around Friday or Sat. Thank you for your info and any additional.
