just after a little advice

Hi,

I am new to this board, so forgive me if I get all the chat wrong. I just have a quick question to ask anyone and any advice would be appreciated.

I should know all this by now but from past experiences each pregnancy is very different, and so I thought I owuld put the question into the wind and maybe get some advice. I have two children and both were breech and so both were ceaserean section, one was in 1998 and i was using clomid and then went off it and fell pregnant, and then unexpectedly I feel pregnant and had my next child in january this year 2003. I never knew the signs of pregnancy as I have polycystic ovaries and also a heart shaped utuerus hence the ceaserean sections so i feel very blessed that i have been able to concieve let alone have children. But again I am in the dark as to if I am pregnant and thought that if i put it out there then I might have some idea. I have never ever had any symptoms with either of my two but i have been regular cycle but not sure on ovulation times or anything.

If I was on time or something then i would have ovulated around the middle of august as i usually get my AF ( i think that is right i am sorry if it is not ) about the first week of the month and nothing happened, and nothing has happened. I have had a UTI for the last two weeks and I had a test at the doctors about ten days ago and it was negative but that was in the afternoon, and then the next day i took a home pregnancy test the next morning and it came up negative, so would that have been due to the UTI infection?

my symptoms this time are sore breasts, frequently going to the toilet, no AF, moody, sore lower back, and extremely tired i could sleep all day if i wanted, and I have also had cramping for the last two weeks kinda like normal pains you getin the pelvis. I have used no contraception at all since 1998, after having my first child. I also get hot flushes you know like change of life ones and headaches as well.

I would really appreciate the thoughts of anyone that could help maybe ease my mind.

Thank you for letting me have this chance to ask my question and everyone is in my prayers.

Madison,

I am no expert but according to your symptoms, it could be pregnancy. I would contact my doctor and get a blood test to be sure.

Good luck!
