What Is The Problem In Getting Pregnant?

hi. me and partner are trying for another child ( my son is now 9 months old) im not on any method of contraception and my period have always remained on time and regular until recently. on the 28th of dec i had my period as normal, then on the 26th of jan as normal then this all changed in February. i had very light brown discharge (spotting) on the 22nd and 23rd jan, then the 24th this changed into a very very light period (no need for pads) the went on the 25th. then march i missed my period completely, and on the 1st of april i had brown spotting very very light and today the 2nd march i came on, im now waiting to see if it is a short one gain. i have had done hpt and had blood text all negitive, now waiting on further blood test from the doctors next week. i have had left random shoulder pain, bloating, sore breasts and the odd twinges in my pubic bone area. i had implantation bleeding with my son before which was very similar although i tested pregnant straight away then positive. please help im so confused what is going on.

Hi, I think periods can get delayed due to stress factor also. Wait for one more week and do a urine pregnancy test at home if you don't get periods by then. If test is negative, you can take some medicines like meprate or deviry for inducing periods. If you are breastfeeding your baby there is a chance that you are not ovulating every month and that may be the reason of delayed periods. So, you can track your ovulation by repeated ultrasound or by ovulation detection kits. Be in contact with your husband every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop. It will increase chance of pregnancy. Hope it helps.
