She ( girlfriend ) just took a pregnancy test on Feb 9...Negative. Her period was due Monday. She's normally a solid 29 days. So 2 days late as of today.
For anyone reading this post for the 1st time...Check out the previous post by me. It explains everything.
Thanks so much for your responses.
The bleeding lasted for 5 days from until the 24th. The fatigue and back pain continues. I can see the fatigue in her face. Wait until next period in mid Feb? Or go into the doc for a blood test/ultrasound? She's pretty confident that she's not pregnant. I feel like denial is starting to creep in. Sigh...
I'm starting to freak a little bit.
She tested on the 23rd of this month. Negative. She's been feeling a bit fatigued of late. But that's it. Nausea, Fatigue. Should we re-test? That was my big worry. Not sure if you had a chance to read the rest of the reposes. I put more info down. Thanks so much for responding.
Hi!
If your girlfriend was my patient, I would advise her to take a pregnancy test, but more for peace of mind than for any other reason. If she had a normal period, the nausea was most likely caused by viral gastroenteritis and not pregnancy.
Hope this helps!

How do I get Elaine to comment on the situation?
Thanks for the reply.
The one this morning was negative as well. Gonna relax on this a bit. That would make it 18 days after the last sexual intercourse ( I wore a condom ).
To me, it sounds like she's on her period and she may be ill also. Unless she isn't bleeding like her normal period, ie. spotting then I wouldn't be concerned about pregnancy.
She just took a pregnancy test at home. Negative. She'll do it again in the early am when she wakes up to be sure. I hope that I can put the thoughts to bed at this point.
My girlfriend went back to work again tonight. She's a nurse. Night shift. She just said she's having back pain. Of course, she thinks it's from not being on the job for so long. And of course I think...da da da dum...Opinions please.
Helps a ton! Thank you for your response=)
Sounds like just her menstrual period. The other symptoms are probably due to the illness going around the house she lives in on top of everything that comes with her menstrual cycle. Hope this helps some!
Thank you soo much for your reply. =)
Im pretty sure its her menstrual. Implantation rarely occurs and can be light red or dark brown, it should resemble an extremely light period. She may have had a stomach bug (:
More news...The last time we had sex was the 4th. She got a bunch of sit test including a HCG/Pregnancy test on the 16th. She got the word today that all was negative.
Anyone out there? Would appreciate a response from someone.
She just told me she's been dizzy while walking or turning her head. I think it may be time for the pregnancy kit. No throwing up today yet. But it appears that pregnancy would be the likely outcome.
Anyone?
