I NEED HELP!!!

I have what may be a stupid question. I was fourteen days late and had started spotting last night. Sometime in the middle of the night I started what I thought was my period, but now I'm not so sure. I never get cramps and now I have them so bad that I can not stand up. I am also on the verge of throwing up. I have never done either of these during my period though. Is it possible to be pregnant and still bleed? Or could all of this just be because I was so late? Any help on this would be great!

Sweetie, if you are fourteen days late you should probably go out and get a pregnancy test just to make sure. Especially if you are usually regular.

Now, it could be normal to spot even while pregnant but cramps bad enough that you can't stand up? I am not too sure about that.

If I were you, I would find out if you were pregnant first or just go see a doctor ASAP if cramps don't get better.

Good luck. Wish you all the best.

I had taken a HPT a few days ago, but thought that it may had been too early. When AF came last night I just assumed that I was just really late, which is a bit unusual. I really wouldn't have thought anything of it except that I have never had a period like this. I just wasn't sure if it was possible to still have a heavy flow if you were pregnant.

If you have a very heavy flow, menstrual cramps and that your HPT came back negative, then, you probably were just late. But if your period is not as long as it usually is or if you only bled one or two days then it stops (especially if the cramps continue), just to be sure, I would go see a doctor. I would not mess with my health.
