Is it possible?

My husband and I had unprotected sex on Jan.12. I was suppose to get my period again in Feb but on Feb 16 I had more like dark brown and red but only used 3 tampons for the day. Then for the next 4 days, I only had mild spotting with brown and light pink color. Some mild cramping here and there. Noticed that I have been more tired. Falling asleep at 8pm on the couch which I never do. Some lower back pain. I took a test but it came back neg, which runs in the family. My mother did not test positive until she was 3-4 months. The most noticeable thing is my bloating. I started to bloat about 2 weeks ago. I can't fit into my jeans anymore. I am very tiny, I only weigh 96 pounds and wear size 1 jeans. My bloating has not gone away and my stomach is very hard. Honestly my butt and stomach stick out the same! My husband thinks it's to funny. My boss at work could not believe how big I look. Is it possible that I could be pregnant? Would I really bloat that bad? Please help! Thank you very much. I am going to see if I get my period in March and also make a doctor's appointment. Wish me luck!

Welcome to the board Constance! I don't know if you would be pregnant or now? Spotting is usually light but every "body" is different! Your other symptoms are what make me wonder. My mom too did not test positive with me with the urine test until later in her pregnancy. I'd see if you doctor could send you for a blood test. It can test for very low levels of the Hcg (is that right ladies?) hormone and can give you a more conclusive answer a lot sooner. Plus, doctors can usually feel the change in your uterus. (I think they can that early, I can't remember?). Let us know what you find out. And good luck and baby dust to you!
