Spotting for 2 1/2 Weeks

I would deffinitly seek a drs help...and on the getting pregnant situation...the harder u try the longer it will take....when u lay back and relax some without the stress so much it will happen...me and my husband tried for months and months and with every negative i got a little more stressed til finally i said heck with it if it happens it does and if not then its not ment to be yet and within less than a month after i stopped worrying so much about it i was finally pregnant and from there all went well. i am also like u with the periods..sometimes i spot for no reason or have 2 in a month and some months their 9 days long and the next month itll be 3 days. i never know what to expect with mine...ive seen drs and tried almost every birthcontrol method to get it regular but ive decided its something ill just have to deal with but i do suggest u make sure that ur arent pregnant already because sometimes the highest $ tests r wrong. with my daughter i took 3 and one was a clear blue easy it said negative and one was a first response and it said negative. next i went to dollar tree and bought one for a dollar it was positive...and i was 5 weeks pregnant at the time. so this just goes to show u that sometimes the most expensive isnt always the best...goodluck and keep us updated and if u arent already i hope it happens for u really soon. it sounds like u r really hopeful and want it badly and i hope u get it!

I would call and make a drs appointment...but it could definitely be stress related. Stress can REALLY jack up your body. After my father passed away I had weird periods (skipping and then lasting forever), I also had UTI-like syptoms with no infection, and flu-like symptoms on and off when I was not really sick. Stress can really do a number on you---which is why they say "stress kills."

First I want to say I am so sorry for your loss. It's even harder when you don't take the time to grieve (I know that all too well and had many weird ailments which only added to the stress). I know you want to make sure your mom is ok, but you have to consider yourself as well. It's hard...but talk to friends, family (even your mom), and/or a a counselor...so long as you get to talk it out and relieve a little of that stress.

You could have implantation bleeding and the test just isn't showing positive results yet. So going to the doctor may help since they'll be able to do blood tests. Also, while you're there it couldn't hurt to talk to the doctor about possibly taking something to help with your stress. I am not a big advocate of prescription medication but my doctor prescribed very low dose of Xanax after my father passed and it helped.

Good luck!!

Hi Melisa,

With everything that you described, I would call and make an appointment with your doctor. Good Luck!!

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. Stress can do different things to your body. Please take some time for yourself too.

I.

I think you should take it easy on what you eat, watch the coffee, ease the stress, just take some time for you (have you done so to just be alone with your thoughts?). Oh, and I would buy a 2 pak pregnancy test kit. But if it's bright red and clotty stress probably made you late. Good luck and make time for you. I am sorry for your loss. May his angel be holding one to come.
