Hi ladies, I'm hoping you guys can ease my mind here. I have hypochondriac tendencies, so I over think everything!
I have my IUD take out a couple months ago because it was causing me too much pain during my monthly and I didn't feel it was worth it to put myself through that to prevent becoming pregnant with a 3rd child. So we're not trying, but we're not doing anything to prevent either. I had about 25 test strips, and I pee on them every now and again just to ease my mind and not over think each month. I did so last night, and after a couple minutes, a really faint positive began to show, it was darkest near the bottom, but faded into almost nothing as it went up to the other side of the test. I panicked, but put it out of my mind and decided to test again in the morning. I did this morning, and it was negative. No trace of any other line at all. It worries me! I have been feeling uneasy in my stomach and sleeping more than I usually do (or can with my two little ones) The weirdest part, is I had sex about a week and a half before my period was due, got a strange period a couple days after it was due. (It was shorter and lighter, and had several small clots that I'm not used to. It usually comes with a vengeance and is really painful for me, heavy and lasts about 6 days.) Sorry about the TMI!. I'd love if you ladies could shed some light. I plan on testing again this evening and see what happens. It's been about 4 weeks since I had sex, and I am so confused. Thanks ladies!
