| light "black" period, could I still be pregnant? Hi all
I have been on this site already and told everyone the symptoms I was having. Everyone that I spoke to thought I could be pregnant. However, I have done 2 pregnancy tests quite early which showed  . My  was due last tuesday but it never came. Then on saturday I had 2 light spots (which I never have, its usually all or nothing!), Sunday morning I had really bad stomach pains (not like period pains), they were so painful I could hardly sit up in bed. I then bled when I went to the toilet and had nothing for the rest of the day. Yesterday (monday) I had really light bleeding that seemed to be just black. Today so far there has been nothing. Could I still have a chance of being pregnant? I am so so confused! I have had so many symptoms, wind, indigestion, bloatedness, tiredness, feeling sick, red meat food cravings ( I ate a steak pie which I hate!), had ice-cream for breakfast one day as I couldn't get a meat pie, headaches, dizzyness, aches in my ovary area........has anybody else experienced this and still been pregnant?  | | | | Status: Offline

| ooh i dont know but some people have said that they didnt gey the BFP until 6 weeks so i guess you just have a waiting game. if the stomach pains continue then maybe a visit to the doc for blood tests? hope it is resolved one way or the other quickly! | | | | Status: Offline

| Anything is possible. How long has it been since your last test? Why don't you try testing again just to be sure. I'm having the same issues and am going to test just so that I know for sure. | | | | Status: Offline

| I would be inclined to say it was just an off AF hun, but test again to be sure and if still BFN and still having symptoms/pains then get to the Dr  | | | | Status: Offline

I won't give up totally just yet then. I last tested on friday so I will wait until this saturday and try again. If its  I will just have to try again. What you described is exactly what I have got....its very strange. I've had similar when I was on the pill at the end of a  but not like this...I have had exactly the same again today...just a bit of that brown tar like stuff! Thank you for your help. I will keep you posted x  | | | | Status: Offline
