no AF, BFN...Could I Be????

ok here goes...

I've lurked a bit for the last three months, as DH and I have only slightly been TTC #2, this month we really didn't plan to as if PG it would be the same birthday as DS (I know a little silly)...

Anyway, AF is a consistent 28 day cycle, this month it didn't come on Monday CD28, so on Tuesday (yesterday) I took a test in the mornign and it was BFN. Then in the late afternoon I had a slight trace of light pink, not red, but light pink with CM, so I put in a tampon (sorry if tmi), at night I took it out and there was little if anything on the tampon and nothing overnight. Today another tampon, and when I took it our, again little if anything on it. My AF gives me awful if not debilitating cramps, and it is usually very heavy for the first two days. I have no cramps and as I told you definately not a heavy showing. I haven't been worried or stressed and until yesterday I really wasn't even thinking about being PG. Could I be?

One more thing to add, I had an ultrasound cd 17 (if PG maybe 5 - 7 days after BD) and neither the tech or my DR mentioned that there could have been a PG, would they have seen it that early, I didn't ask because I didn't think I was, but now with no AF I wonder if I was would they have seen anything?

Sorry if I jumped around, any input would be great :-)

First i would wait a few more days and then test again, second no they wouldn't have seen anything cause it would have been to small. The only way they might have seen it if thats what they were looking for but then again they might not have cause its about the size of a pea.

Should I be acting like PG? like not drinking no Diet coke and takng vitamins? I know i should wait a week to take another HPT but should I act like I am pg?

I guess that's my biggest concern, I'm not that worried about being PG as I am about protecting the as yet unborn baby from what I may do if I think I'm not and i actually am...

If I were in your situation, I would at least refrain myself from drinking alcohol or smoke, if you do. I would continue as normal until I get a + HPT or a Dr. confirms the pregnancy.

JMHO

Good Luck!
