Hello! My last normal period was on 3/13 and lasted about 5 or 6 days. I usually have very intense breast pain for about a week prior to the start of my period that slowly eases up within the first couple of days of my period. I also always suffer from cramps on the first day of my period.
This month was different than my normal period. I started my period on 4/14 and it lasted until 4/16 which is only 3 days, not like the normal 5 or 6 days. It was very light and I didn't have any breast pain or cramps. My breast always hurt very badly before my period, I cannot think of a time when they didn't. I also cannot recall a time where I didn't cramp, although the cramping does vary in intensity each month. The fact that my period was so light and without any of my other normal period symptoms, I cant help but question pregnancy.
On Wednesday 4/24 8 days aftet the end of my period my breast became sore. Each day that passes the intensity of the pain increases. It is now Friday 4/26 and they are still very sore.
I took a test Monday 4/22 only 6 days after the end of my period based solely on the fact that my period was short, light, and without other normal symptoms. It was negative so I quickly dismissed pregnancy. But now that my breast became so sore 8 days after the end of period I think I may actually be pregnant.
Do you think I waited long enough to take a test? And how long should I wait to take another test? Does it sound like I am pregnant or do you think I'm over analyzing everything? Has anyone gone through anything similar with the breast pain a week after your period but no breast pain prior or during your period? Thanks for any advice you may have! :

If you got your period, I wouldn't assume pregnancy just because it's different. Your body does weird things.

I'm sorry but I have to agree. Positive thinking-at least your period didn't suck this time around, if it was shorter and lighter. You can always keep testing, but they aren't cheap. Best of luck next time!

You're hormone levels may just be changing, hence the lighter period. The sore BBs two weeks after may have been you ovulating. My periods is usually only 3 or 4 days and this past month it was 6. I would say start temping or using OPK tests to get a better idea of your cycle.
