Hello Ladies, I know we have some men in here but this question is more for the ladies. I have a question, I had my period last month around the the 29th and all trugh the 2nd of this month. Im not sure what is going on. Im not sure if it going away on the second would be my period for this month. I have been feeling sleepy, sore breasts, alot of bloating. I know these are some signs of pregnancy. I took a test last week and it came back negative. Have any of you had this happen? Im just confused and nervous and excited at the same time.

Sorry Ana  Lots of possable reasons  ... stress , hormonal changes including but not limited too pg ,  changes going on ... even things we eat  or drink can upset the balance .. Keep an eye on  and if continues  head back to ob-gyn

Up until August of this year, I was very very regular.  I was only late 3 times in my life (3 children) and then in August I was due for my period and it never came, finally it came 3 weeks late. I was extremely tired and my breasts hurt too.  I took about 5 pregnancy test and they all came back negative, which is fine because last year I had my tubed tied because we decided we were done. Since my late August period, my next one came 2 1/2 weeks later. Some people say that I am starting menopause, but come on, I just turned 40 in August.....does Mother Nature really have that sick of sense of humor to say a women turns 40 and magically starts menopause. I don't know. IF you want another child, then I say good luck to you. If you don't I say wait a bit and see what happens.

typically, your period should come 28 days after the first day of your last period.  So if your period came on the 29th of Aug your next period should be due around the 26th.  Of course this is only if you are at all regular with your periods.  I wouldn't worry until next week if your period doesn't come.   All the symptoms you listed could also just be signs of a rough period. 

It's too funny this happened to you this month (not funny, but coincidental), because the very same thing happened to me for the first time and I FREAKED! I didn't have the pregnancy symptoms, but my period was no where to be found. In my life, other than pregnancy and nursing, this has NEVER happened. I was convinced #4 was on its way, but I kept getting pregnancy tests back negative.

Fortunately, a little less than 1 week later it came. I am still a little confused and concerned, I am NOT prepared to deal with an irregular cycle, but a friend of mine who is a women's health nurse practitioner told me that as you get older your periods tend to become more irregular. WHATEVER!

Unfurtunatly its true! As older you get the difference in your periods. I finally got it but it only lasted two days. I used too have it for 7 days and now its two, not that im complaining but I sometimes get confused! Well the bright side is that im not prego!!
