WDYT- period, pregnant or something else? TMI

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Here's what's going on: I was expecting my period this coming Friday and last Thur night I started to spot. I've been spotting all weekend, it's brown with some spots of brighter red blood once and a while. At first I thought maybe implantation bleeding but now I'm not so sure. Last night the bleeding increased so I thought maybe an early period (which has never ever happened) but this morning its only when I wipe. A tampon is uncomfortable because its not been heavy enough for one. Cramping is on and off.

I've also been going to bed at like 9-930ish for the last week, nauseous on &off, and starving all of the time. I feel like I could be pregnant but trying not to get excited and thrown off with the spotting/bleeding. I'm not on bc. With DD I didn't get my positive until I was exactly a week late.

A month or so ago I had an ultrasound which showed several ovarian cysts but I'm not sure if that can cause bleeding.

I'm going crazy not knowing if I'm pregnant. Any ideas what could be going on? Should I be concerned? TIA!

ETA- I did POAS which was neg. I think it is too early. I will just have to wait a few more days.

    No one on the bump is going to be able to tell you if you're pregnant. There are ovarian problems that can cause bleeding, and even cause false pregnancies. Lots of things can disrupt a cylcle too though, so I personally wouldn't worry just yet, but I don't know your medical history.  I don't know why you think you're going crazy.

    I know no one on a msg board can tell me- I'm just looking to see if anyone has any ideas/experience.

    I forgot to add I did POAS which was neg. but I think its too early. I just have to wait it out.

    This.  I had ovarian cysts about 8 years ago that need surgically removed and it did mess with my periods, so that could be it.  The only way to know for sure if you are pregnant is to POAS, though.

    My periods have not regulated yet... I've had about 4 and am not on BC. My last cycle started a few days before I would have expected it to come regularly. The first few days were brown spotting- which I had not experienced before. My 'normal' period came along a few days later. This could be your case and you just aren't experience normalcy with periods yet. How long have you had it back?

    Of course, if you think it's possible, then the possibility is there that you could be pg. Or some of the other 'symptoms' you are feeling could be mental since that thought is in your mind. Or not. Take a test... if it's negative and you still have the same thing going on at the end of the week, take another test.

    This. I think there are a lot of options, so start with this one.
