Ok, i know that if you convince yourself you are pregnant, or if you stress over it, etc...your mind can start making up the pregnancy symptoms right? And your period can be late...

Say you psychologically psych yourself out (Hm...i wonder if that was a gramatically correct sentence??), could your period FLOW be weird too? Like...bleed a little bit every couple hours just a few spots and different color, then stop...and then not bleed for like a day adn then you know..just completely sporadically...

i don't know. i am obsessing over this. i need to just go to bed and wake up at 1:00 tomorrow for my appointment so i stop obsessing lol...

wish me luck though!

Sweetie i wish you all the best of luck!! I think that i may just be psyching myself out, or in :) I'm going to let nature run its course and pray for the next test to be positive. Please let me know how everything turns out!! For the both of us, i hope its positive!!!! I think that i may call a nurse tomorrow and see if she can give me any answers:) hopefully.

take care

It can be normal to have an odd AF. But if its not normal for you, then maybe not. Mine usually are a lot like you describe. Usually there is medium to heavy for 2 days, then spot the next and taper off to nothing, then the next day you think your done, then it comes back medium for one more day. That how mine are almost always, all 5 days strangly in there order. But to me that is normal...for you though you said its not, so who knows. I wish you good luck and hope you get the answer your praying for.

Mmkay, my period's never like this.

my period is um...how do i put this? the menstrul cycle from hell!!! it is usually so bad i need to change my tampon every half hour, tons of blood clots, killer cramps, etc. (mmm sorry to gross anyone out) thats why i am so concerned about this bleeding because it's so light and it only happens every couple hours and it's either pink or brown... and i don't have ANY cramps, even though i had some light ones on Monday.

So thats why I am wondering if my mind is making my AF different?? Is that possible?? Haha doesn't sound like it, but who knows...

I usually go for all 5-6 days, solid. This time, it lasted 2.5 days, and it was really light, and dark, and stops and starts, so i don't know whats going on:) I'm thinking about calling a nurse tomorrow. I really hope i get the desired answer:) Ill definitely be praying tonight!! Thank you very much.

I feel you guys. I am on day 46 and no AF. I have taken two HPT's and both were -. I have had irregular periods in the past. At one point I would have my periods every 3 months. With my last pg, that's what was going on. I didn't find out I was pg until I st arted throwing up, but then I was 3 months along. I didn't worry when I missed my period because it was every 3 months. I am wondering if that could be the case this time. The last time my period was that irregular was in the beginning of 2002. This is the latest it has been this year. My husband thinks it is because I want to be pg so bad that I am having all the symptoms and psyching myself out. Well I am going to make a doctors appt. and see what happens. I hope everyone gets what they want. I'll be praying for you guys. Keep me posted.

Best Wishes!!
