Am I Pregnant

While you are probably not pregnant, I would go to the doctor anyway just to be safe. If you have gotten pregnant it is possible that it is an ectopic pregnancy and that is best caught early. Either way, you will feel much better after having gone to the doctor.

Now, women can usually get a bit of substance out of their nipples if they try after having a child. That's nothing to worry about. The pains sound like you could either be ovulating or preparing to start. It is also possible that these signs are indicative of another problem. I would really go ahead and go to the doctor. Better safe than sorry, I say.

Yes it can happen. The lady that sits next to me got pregnant 10 years after her tubal. Go to the store and get a pregnancy test already!!!

Well my stopmom...God love her because someone has to...had 2 kids a tubal, two more kids a tubal and then 2 more kids and a tubal. This was all before she met my dad. She is almost 50 and they had a scare. My dad was looking at paying for a tubal again because he already has 4 kids himself and she has 6. Now they are raising one of her daughters kids. He is 53 and beyond wanting more kids. Thankfully it was not a pregnancy but menopause. So yea it is possible. I know when I had my tubal the doctor told me that there was like a 1 in 300 chance that you can still have a pregnancy. Not to mention you can also have a tubal pregnancy. I would get it checked out if you are having tummy pain.

It sounds like you may have an infection. I'd go to the doctor as soon as you can. You can always take a pregnancy test at home, but I suggest just going to the doctor.

Best of luck to you!

You should get to a doctor. If you don't have insurance, look for a low-cost clinic. You might have an infection of some sort or something. Let us know how it turns out. God bless you.

O., I hate to tell you this. One of my best friends got pregnant at 44 and her two children are in their twenties! She had a tubal after the second was born and got pregnant anyway. It took 20 some yrs, but it can still happen! I know it's got to be scary, especially with the economy being what it is. My hubby and I want another, but we can't imagine how we would afford one. Good luck and I'll pray that God provides you with what you need.

Have you taken a home pregnancy test? Most ob/gyn offices will ask that before they will make an appointment for you. A tubal pregnancy is not out of the question. If that is the case though, you need to find out. A friend had a tubal pregnancy and ended up in the hospital, so there can definitely be complications. I hope you find out soon.

I really think you are pregrant.

Hi O.,

It could be or it could be that you are going through some hormonal changes. The only way to know for sure is a pregnancy test. My neighbor had her tubes tied twice and her husband's vasectomy grew back once. There's also the possiblilty that it's something completely unrelated. You should probably see your doctor so that you can stop worrying about it and know for sure.

Good luck!!

O.,
It is possible to get pregnant after a tubal. I would suggest making an appointment with a doctor. If you are pregnant it could be in your tubes instead and that could be dangerous. You could start with a home pregnancy test, but I would just go to the doctor and find out if it isn't pregnancy, it could be something else.

Can you go and get a blood test to confirm it. Don't stress anymore than what you are as it may delay it longer...

You also could have your thyroid checked as it can mess up your cycles as well...

I noticed you said, you HAVE BEEN LATE THE LAST 2 months, maybe since your tubal things have changed... are you counting your days? If you were late... how many days between your cycles... I was late this month as I have been sick with a bad cold...

oh it can happen.... i would call your doctor and tell them jsut what you told us it may be something else that you want to have looked at. good luck

A friend of mine had her tubes tied and burnt. She got pregnant after a year. I myself was coughing and having back pain when I went to a doctor for a check-up only to find out that I was pregnant. Is your period normal, I mean comes regularly every month? If it is and you miss one, well, sorry to say "Congratulations". Well, to stop worrying, I suggest that you see an OBGYN asap. It will releave you of your stress from worrying. From what I heard, having a tubal is not really a guarantee that you won't get pregnant.

Hey girl, I agree with pretty much everyone else's advice. If you are/are not pregnant, even with a tubal ligation you can still get pregnant. After you find out what's going on, just to be on the safe side, try practicing a little bit of the rhythm method and abstain from sex close to when you ovulate. Typically that's 14 days after the first day of your period, so maybe try abstaining 10-16 days after the first day of your period. I hope all is well for you and good luck.

You're probably not pregnant. A lot of women can squeeze a little milk out of their nipples if they try. A friend of mine still wears nursing liners and hasn't nursed for 4 years. As for the pain in the lower back, it sounds like you're ovulating...which you will still do after having your tubes tied. Make sure you don't have a fever. If you do, you'll probably want to make sure you don't have a kidney infection or something. If you don't have a fever, just wait. You'll probably start your period in the next couple of weeks. While you can still get pregnant if a tubal wasn't done correctly, I think that is highly unlikely. I don't know the statistics. Pick up a pregnancy test if you're really concerned, but I think you're probably fine. P.S. - I am editing this after reading the other responses. I didn't think about the increased risk of a tubal pregnancy after having tubes tied. Definitely talk your your doctor's office just to be sure. I'll say a prayer for you.

Do a test to be sure, but I would call the DR.

dont know for sure but my daughter is doing the same wondering if shes preg go to health for a pregnatcy test

I'm with Christina. Before getting ahead of yourself, get a pregnancy test to put yourself at ease and then maybe go to a doctor to make sure everything else is ok. Worry when you need to and not prematurely. Good luck. I'm sure you're fine!

Hi O.,

The $ store carries pregnancy tests and they are accurate. However, I found that with my last two pregnancies once I tested with the $ store ones I bought the 2 pack of the EPT's for further confirmation. Just telling you this so you can get the cheap test and check, if it's positive then go the route of your doctor or midwife.

Keep us posted.

My neice had a tubal and she was without her period for a little bit. You can always go buy one of the cheap over-the-counter pregnancy tests and see what it says. If you are, you can truely say it is a gift for God!!! Hope all turns out good for you.

I would get a home pregnancy and try that first. Stress can mess with your cycle so if you have been under more stress that usual that could explain a lot. Try doing some relaxing, deep breathing,soaking in a tub, meditating etc...The relaxing will take a while,try to stay relaxed. If you don't get anywhere with this info seek help from your doctor.
