Need some true advice
hey ladies,
i have never posted on here cause frankly, i never thought i would want to get pregnant after my surgery. I am only a year out (Aug 19th)
my last 2 cycles were 40 days to the day. I can not remember the one before this. Last wednesday would have been 40 days.
the first day of my last period was June 28/12. I have taken 3 home pregnancy test, all negative, but I have so many symptoms of pregnancy and I don't know what to do or what to believe.
I have nausea, headaches, increased vaginal discharge (sorry tmi) light headed, i am all of a sudden clumsy, i have been drooling (not because of food), breast feel full, my nose is a little stuffy and i just feel like i could be.
i guess what i am hoping you lovely ladies could tell me is, since you had your surgery, were your symptoms increased or different, and also, how long before you got a postive test.
now that it is in my head that i could be pregnant, i do want another (my daughter is 5, almost 6)
Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated! Congrats to all of you :)

I hate to say it, but a blood test from your doctor would be your best shot. I got my BFP on at home test 1 week after I was late (and I only did that because I swore I was just late, not pregnant, well suprise).
I can't say my symptoms were all that different, in fact I was one of the ones that didn't get morning sickness or headaches.
Best wishes.

With both of my pregnancies (one pre WLS, one post op) I had to be a good week+ past my missed period to get a positive pregnancy test. With my first baby, I even had a negative blood test from the doctor just a few days before finally getting a positive home test. With both however, I KNEW I was pregnant, regardess of what the tests said. So, give it some time, call your doc, etc. Good luck, keep us posted!
