Thread: This is the first year I'm regular- so I'm confused about this.

Hello everyone! I'm a 26 yr old student who has been overweight for most of her life. The last 6-7 years I was obese- weighing 248lbs. I would normally get my period once a year and it was . My gyno would always say there was nothing wrong and would put me on birth control for 2-3 months. Two years ago I found out I had diabetes and freaked out so I lost some weight. Then last year I lost some more and I have been dieting on and off since but what my weight loss led me to was a regular period. After so many years- this year has been the first in my life that I have had regular periods and it's weird!!! I lost a total of 76lbs and have been very happy about it and my regular periods- but this month something weird has happened. I'm late!!
I've been with my boyfriend for about 9 years now and we have never used protection- we said if it ever happened that we'd get pregnant- it would be a blessing for both. (Plus we live together as a common marriage.) This month- I am 10 days late. I'm so confused because I have been right on time this whole year and I guess I was expecting it again this month. I've had tender (somewhat painful) breasts since Thanksgiving- it usually happens for a day or two before my period- but it's been a long time now.... I've been unusually sleepy- I never sleep during the day and lately I catch myself taking naps. I have milds cramps and discharge as if I'm about to get it- but nothing happens. I don't know what to think because we have never been pregnant before- and I don't want to get my hopes up and cry like crazy if the test says no. I guess I just need a little advise here- should I wait another week or two? Or should I test now?

Congrats girl!!!! Best of luck throughout your pregnancy.
