Well, I really don't know where to begin.
I NEED YOUR PRAYERS!!
In the past 15months, my computer program calculates me to have had a 28 day cycle. Which was what my norm was for a very long time. However, around Dec. 06...I started having a period every 25 days. DEFINITELY by the time 28 days rolled around I had AF. I have been sexually active (obviously). But we used a condom halfway through intercourse (don't ask, it's stupid...I know). I have been pregnant before and I am confident what my symptoms are, in fact I don't need a test lol. I had the normal morning sickness, sore breasts etc. These are the only symptoms I have:
~I had a yeast infection shortly after having sex (I hadn't had sex in a long time, and it's been in my history to be very sensitive to semen, my pH goes haywire!)
~My cervix is low and soft and slightly open.
~Lots of clear discharge that has no smell.
~My period is late (25 day cycle...currently CD 31 & counting)
I am cramping (I think). I haven't been worried about being pregnant. I just looked up at the calendar and began to wonder where it is. I have a leak in my tricuspid valve and that may prevent me from having a successful pregnancy from what I have been told. I am very worried about that now. The sooner I know, the better so that I can have the best prenatal care. But I don't want to test too soon and get a false negative OR keep waiting and put myself in some sort of danger.
I have a healthy happy 5 y/o son. But I have had some tradgedies as well that I am not over. (Emotionally I am still very hurt and you will see why at the end.)
WHEN WOULD YOU LADIES TEST??? CAN ANYONE GIVE ME ANYTHING TO PUT ME AT EASE?? With the exception of my heart, I am in otherwise good health. All of my losses are for differnt reasons that are not related. I guess I just have terrible luck. But I am begining to feel that I am not worthy of more children. No, I wasn't trying, but we do believe that a baby is a blessing by all means.

Oh Dawn I am so terribly sorry for all your losses. Please don't feel like you aren't worthy of more children - I'm sure you are a great mom and you will be blessed again if that's what you want. I think you ought to go ahead and take a test since you said AF is already late. If you're worried about getting a false negative, call your dr and set a time to come in for a blood test.
Sending big, huge hugs. Good luck and KUP! :)
