I'm 18 and the last time I've had a NORMAL period was January 28th.. My next period came on Feb. 24th and it wasn't as heavy and it didn't last more than 3 days. I started getting bloated and I gained about 5 pounds. I look like I have a ball in my tummy. I was feeling sick to my stomach, even smells were making me feel sick. I had pains around my belly button and my back and sides. My breasts were getting sore and I have been feeling more tired then usual. Seeing as I got my period, even though it was late.. I thought I'd wait to see if I got my period the next month before taking a pregnancy test. My period this month was due on march 24th and it didn't come.. I took a home test on march 28th but it turned out negitive. I thought I had done it wrong or not enough urine was put on it. That night I started bleeding, but only a little bit. It wasn't heavy enough to say it was a period. It started off like the end of a period would. The next day I went in to the doctors for a blood test and the test came out negative.Yesterday the bleeding was clumpier and darker and today, so far, I haven't been bleeding much at all.. I still feel bloated and all of that.. DO you think I could have been pregnant and had a miscarriage and by the time I got the test done it was too late to find out????

no
i would get tested for something else
even if you miscarried, there would be enough hcg levels in your blood for the doctors to dtermine that
something does appear to be wrong though
ask your doctor for help

I agree with tamara - if you had been pregnant, the doctors test would have picked up on it because you still have pregnancy hormone in your blood for a while after having a miscarriage.
What did your doctor advise?

I hadn't actually spoken with the doctor. I called and the doctor wasn't in so the receptionist wrote out the paper for the blood test.. Not to brag or anything but I've had three fairly long term relationships in which I've had unprotected sex. I've never gotten pregnant or had any diseases. I'm pretty scared, I don't know what's wrong. This was weird though because I FELT pregnant and that's something I've never experienced before.

the time period seems long enough that if you were pregnant the hormones would have shown up in your blood. if you want to wait and see if it gets normal...but don't wait too long. i would be concerned enough to see a doctor.
