hi. I hope someone can offer their experience here. Here is my timeline, someone plz comment! I'm going crazy first day of last period: feb 10, 2012 (29-30 day cycle) Feb 26, unprotected (and good) sex
feb 28: took plan b March 2-6: started getting sleepy and didn't want to wake up, started feeling a little queasy for no real reason thought i was getting sick, almost vomited from the smell of my dish detergent, boobs started looking and feeling like cantelope and I now sleep in a sports bra. March 6: went on a date with my bf, the elevator in the parking structure smelled so amazing i didn't want to leave. March 7: my friend came over and took a shower at my house, and used my soap. the smell of her with that soap was so heavenly i couldn't tear my nose away from her neck and arms. (weird, i know. I was surprised too) March 8: helping my bff deliver her baby when the flight for life helicpoter landed and took off during her labor. I was gagging on the smell of jet fuel before anyone else in the room even knew it was there. March 10: so far, 6 negative home preg tests. March 10: checked for period (which is due today) with a tampon, found a little blood way up there. Sorry if this is tmi... I smelled the blood, and it doesn't smell like a period at all. It smells fresh and coppery, and not like that awful villainous period blood that sabotages nice days and evenings out. March 10 currently: feeling a little crampy, but really low cramps. And mild. Not the fatal cramps that my period usually brings. I have not had one PMS pimple, not one PMS dessert craving. I have been thirsty! And I've been farting, and I mean a lot, and like a man. It's icky. So that's my story. I hope someone can shed some light on this for me, like I said, I'm going a little nutz. Thanks
Re: hi. I might be pregnant.... any opinions?
If you can't turn a pregnancy test positive, there isn't enough hCG in your system to cause pregnancy symptoms. If AF doesn't show in a few days, week, or whatever makes you feel comfortable, try to POAS again.
I hope AF shows up soon for you!
if this odd blood thing is implantation bleeding, how long after implantation bleeding can i expect to test positive?
do these things i'm saying sound like im a psycho or like im pregnant?
thanks for answering me btw
It that was implantation bleeding, it would probably take at least three or four more days and maybe up to a week to get a positive HPT.
I agree with the pp -- if you don't have enough HCG in your body to turn a pregnancy test positive, it's highly unlikely that you're actually experiencing real symptoms. I don't know if you're crazy, but I thnk you are fooling yourself into seeing symptoms all over the place.
i hope you are right.
I'm going to take a nap now, and hopefully wake up to a raging period.
ttyl! (or not, even better!)
this
but, my feelings are kind of hurt... i feel invalidated. At the same time that I hope to get my bleeder, I'm calm about the big "what if."
It hurts my feelings that you think I would somehow be able to fake dry heaving from the smell of dish detergent and jet fuel.
Jules was very nice, and whoever else is entitled to their opinion that I'm a little nuts, they are wrong, I am A LOT nuts. But that is beside the point. Being Bipolar doesn't make you all of a sudden want to sniff your friends or sleep in sports bras.
Anyway, thanks for the opinions and suggestions that weren't hurtful
Have you read the side effects for plan b? This might help you.
Well if you have peed on a stick and it came out negative then I am willing to bet you are not pregnant. Maybe a little nuts too since you sniff people and such
I think you mean nutz.
-Looks at OP's post-
Excuse me, I believe it is spelled nutz.
Oh snap! Somehow I missed that. It was lost in all the other BSC.

People concern me...
My first thought is stress. Jet fuel would make anyone to barf. Smelling stuff isnt that weird, I like the smell of peoples deodorant and books. However with that being said I have always had a very heightened sense of smell. I can walk into my friend house who has a dog that's not house trained yet and I can smell it immediately.
Give it a few days and if you haven't started take another test or call you OB to do a blood test.
Hey, I'm new to this board too and asked a question not too long ago. Shocked at how rude some people have been. Almost like I was being dismissed. It's not just you.
I've been doing some lurking, and I think these boards aren't too friendly with newcomers...I keep getting my head chewed off. I've deleted every single post of mine so far. Haven't even been told "Welcome" yet.
Bahahahahahahahaha. You need to man up or head right over to babygaga.com.
Example A.
I have thick skin...I can take the back talk.
But my post was expressing my excitement as possibly being pregnant. I asked for advice on home pregnancy tests. I was given total joke responses. Really? How old are we? Instead of helping me out, I was given total crap (some lame pregnancy tester website, a poster who said I probably don't know anything about MY own period cycles, etc.) It's stupid, pointless, and I'm not going to keep a post up if I'm just going to be mocked with every single response.
I'm a ball of nerves right now, and turned to this board for some support.
LOL!!
This!
I just googled plan b side effects and your described symptoms are included. I'd check with your doctor if you have any further concerns.
What amazed me is the maturity of some of these women and their responses! To think they are going to be the ones raising children! Can we say High School?
thanks you 3 or 4 that don't hate me for wondering if i'm pregnant. Because I guess that's a crime now....
anyway, i did actually google the side effects of plan B, and being how it's now been 2 weeks since i've taken it, and i was on a birth control pill years and years ago... like 14 years ago, and I didn't feel that way then, so that's kind of something I was hoping someone would answer me about. But you know what? almost all of you have been horrible and mean, I wonder if that's why you are on the internet, since maybe you treat your friends this way, that they don't "deserve" to get pregnant (as if that's what is going on? Like I "deserve" it? I had questions bitches. questions.) I think someone actually said what basically amounted to if i don't want to be insulted and made fun of, don't post here??? are you serious?
anyway, Thanks again to you 3 or 4 or whatever. i'll make sure if I am actually pregnant to let everyone know that they are FOS before I never log back on here again, and that God still loves them no matter how mean they are; but that certainly doesn't make them happy!
hahaha, i just keep thinking stuff like, I'm 31 years old, and i have people educating me about my own period, like I'm about to get my driver's license. Like I've never smelled jet fuel before.... which actually has always been a comforting smell, one that I liked for my own sentimental reasons. Or like I've never done the dishes or something. Kind of weird. I've just never felt these things before, and they seemed strange to me, God forgive me for being a little curious/concerned/confused.
Also, let me just say that my bff in hard labor, during her 2 hours of pushing, and I'm there helping her, encouraging her, etc... the next day I went to see her in the hospital, and she said she thought it was weird that I was so offended by the smell of the jet fuel before anyone else had even become aware of it. In her laborious state of delerium, SHE noticed that; and I've got these biznatches on here telling me how I'm supposed to react to jet fuel in order for them to justify being . Good job ladies, excellent way to love other women the way other women love you.
Good luck on your nine months, baby dust or whatever. congratulations.
"fresh and coppery" was all I needed.
Mama.B, correct. The amount of frivoluous questions are painful. So... I fear for the posters who ask dumb questions and their children. Right on.
Well.... I hope you are really pregnant!! I hope your excitement continues for months and months, and turns into years with your wonderful healthy child. Thank you so much for finding this as ridiculous as I did, and I considered taking my post down as well, but decided I would keep it up just to let people feel somehow justified and hopefully consequently develop some sense of social obligation not to treat people like crap when they get to hide behind and avatar. It makes me sad.
I understand the being a ball of nerves! whether you want to be pregnant or not, it's pretty nervewracking to have to wait for a conclusive answer one way or the other. I get it trust me
Thanks again. And good luck if you're hoping to exchange your bundle of nerves for a bundle of joy!
thank you mama b for not being mean, and even more, for being nice!!
I appreciate that. It surprises me how people actually enjoy being cruel; and then that becomes normal, and then when someone like you is nice, it's a surprise again!!
So thanks again.
what do you mean fresh and coppery was all you needed.
Hopefully you just experienced a reaction to the pills. I took Plan B once, and it was very harsh on my system - far worse than any pregnancy symptoms have been. Good luck!
This. As soon as I read she smelled the blood I learned toward troll.
MUD and there were 2 posters that I am pretty sure were the same person. Creepy. Ah the interwebs, a place of wonder.
When in doubt go to your doctor!
Um, thank you for all that OP - I learned something new today - I didn't know "bleeder" was another term for AF.
As for "are you pregnant"?
Damn! I hate when my magic 8 ball gives me that answer. ::shakes 8 ball furiously::
You are very welcome! I hope all goes well for you in this adventure!
