What are the odds I could be pregnant again?

[Anonymous]

My period isn't exactly perfectly spot on accurate every single month, but it has its normalcy. Usually it comes every 30-33 days.

Well, this month, it never has came. I'm 4 days late now based off of my app prediction (it's a little off and said I was due to start on May 14 which would have been Day 29 of my cycle). My cycle day is Day 33 so I was guessing it would have came either yesterday or the day before but definitely today at the latest.

I had some cramping May 6 which was random (and I typically don't really have many issues with cramps before or during my period). I've been a little more moody/irritable (things annoy me more easily but some are truly valid annoyances).

I recall with my first pregnancy, I was a little more moody/more easily annoyed, I can't remember if I had random cramps exactly but I remember having a really oddly bad period right before I got pregnant (like super bad cramps for a couple hours the first day of it which hadn't happened since I was a teenager), I had "belly pudge" before I start having a real "bump" (it was something my partner and I could easily see since I am petite and we both know my usual form well but others really didn't pay any mind at that time), I started having bad boob discomfort by around 5-6 weeks, I started having horrible morning sickness around 8 weeks, I was more tired, I was craving specific drinks, etc.

So now in addition to the lack of a period, I am having some similar signs - a little moodiness, craving the same drinks as before, maybe a little pudge starting, certain foods just are not tasting good like they used to now (could just be getting burned out on them too), no boob discomfort yet (but I'd likely be rather early into my pregnancy - my last period started April 16). I'd assume I got pregnant early this month, possibly late last month. I know you're advised to wait at least 3-4 weeks before you test so you get an accurate result, so I fear testing too early and getting a false negative.

I have also had a lot of discharge - clear or milky/creamy looking. I have no diseases and am in a committed relationship. We do not use condoms and I am not on any birth control. We just use the pull out method. I am aware that is not reliable birth control, so no need to tell me that. I am just curious of the odds of another pregnancy as well as when I should test.

Your symptoms could just be PMS, and your period could just be late. I say wait another 7 days before you do a pregnancy test. A pregnancy test will not show positive until 2 weeks after conception, anyway. So if it has been less than 2 weeks since you last had sex, a test may not be accurate yet.

The only thing that throws me off with that is I really don't have a lot of issues with PMS. I don't typically get moody especially. I never have really. I get annoyed over the usual stuff that would annoy anyone but I don't notice any increases around my period really. If I have any cramping, it's light and the first day only. When I was younger/a teenager I would occasionally have really bad cramps the first day. But they got better as I got older.

End of April or early May would be when I got pregnant I'd assume.

I was noticing "pudge" before I tested positive during my first pregnancy and my partner noticed as well and joked he thought I was pregnant. He was right. Early pregnancy bloating I assume.

Well, if you’re that worried, do a pregnancy test. They’re quick & easy to do. You & your partner aren’t being careful at all with sex so it’s pretty likely.

[Asker]

Well the only reason we aren't exactly making any true moves to definitely prevent another pregnancy is we are open to it. So we're just using the pull out method that way we aren't "trying" 100%, but we aren't fully opposed to getting pregnant again either if that happens and we are definitely aware that pulling out is not the best method at all.

I will also say my period for April was a little weird. I saw spotting and the actual bleeding took awhile to start. I had sex day 4 of that cycle and there wasn't any mess (usually I'd see at least spotting). I had mostly spotting that day with a little more light bleeding that evening then spotting for two days after.

I bought a test because I was going to take it this morning. Then my period showed up this morning. So disappointing! 😞

Were you hoping to be pregnant?

[Asker]

Kind of

Your tits puffy? That's how I knew my wife was pregnant all 4 times before she did.

[Asker]

My boobs don't seem puffy quite yet. I didn't notice major breast changes until around 5-6 weeks pregnant my first pregnancy. They started to be really sore to the touch and felt more "full". The week I tested positive was the week I started having the breast soreness.

[Asker]

Well I got my period today, so not pregnant :(

[Godihateyou]

Better luck next time.

[Asker]

Yep definitely

Fairly high I would imagine given your birth control method.
