Greetings.

My current period is being very light. I usally have a very heavy flow the first two or three days, then it lights up, but never as much as it is now.
I took two pregnancy tests and they came out negative. So I'm not sure if this is an actual sign that I am pregnant of if this could be caused by other things such as stress etc.

Has anyone else experienced this during their pregnancy or could this be nothing?


Thank you.

Well, it COULD be implantation bleeding; which happens around the time of your period (usually before) and is a light spotting. Yes stress can cause you to screw up your period. Wait a week or two then take a test. Good luck!

Yes, if you are worried, just to make sure. But you really need to stop stressing!

I'll try and stop. But it's such a scary thing it's hard not to... Sad

Would it be better for me to go to the docter instead, to have a blood test taken?...or should I just stick to the home kind?
