Yes you could be pregnant but you shouldn't of had a normal period. Best thing to do is see your doctor for a blood test.
Take a pregnancy test. It is hard to say. When was your period suppose to start? Are you having any abdominal cramps?
Does yellow cervical mucus indicate you're pregnant?
Yellow, cervical mucus indicates an infection. Definitely not pregnancy.
AnswerI had yellow cervical mucus with all three of my pregnancies.Im having it now, but I dont know if Im pregnant or not. Im waiting a few more days to see if my period will show or not.
AnswerDifferent people have different colors and consistencies at different times of the month. It might indicate an infection, or it might be nothing. Lately mine has been generally yellow. I don't think there's a color key that works for everyone all the time for this sort of thing. If it smells awful, itches, or you have other reasons for concern, then go schedule a doctor appointment! But if the color is the only thing you're worried about, I think you're probably fine.Was Jesus murdered on a cross or a stake with hands above his head?
No. there is absolutely no evidence that Jesus was crucified on a stake.
The Romans sometimes used the traditional 'cross' shape often made by sliding the crossbar (that had a hole in it) over a narrowed top on the upright so that a cross shape resulted. Occasionally the cross was a T-shaped structure. However, in the Gospels we are told that Jesus carried his 'cross'. This suggests that he was crucified on a cross-shaped cross (not a T-bar) and what he carried was almost certainly the cross-bar which would have been made out of roughly hewn bloodstained wood (from earlier executions) and strapped to the arms across the back (lacerated from the scourging), until the victim arrived at the place of execution when his wrists were nailed to the crossbar, he was hoisted up and the crossbar slid over the upright. His feet would then be held together sideways and nailed through both ankles with a single nail. By nailing through the nerves in the wrists and ankles, this meant that the Romans could inflict the maximum pain.
So, the idea of a 'stake' being used is nonsense. Even the term 'crucifixion' comes from the Latin (the language that the Romans spoke) 'Crucis' meaning 'Cross'. Sadly there are those who have these wild 'theories' because they glean a little information somewhere dubious, without actually knowning a great deal about the history behind the Biblical accounts, nor studying more reliable evidence about those times.
Other evidence of Crucifixion on a Cross has come from, among other sources, archaeological discoveries, historical documents relating to such punishments (such as the execution of hundreds of slaves along the Appian Way in Rome when Spartacus led a revolt against the Romans) and records such as wall paintings in the Roman catacombs dating from the middle of the first Century, just 10-20 years after Jesus' death and resurrection.

probably on a cross because the Romans form of exectution back then was nailing them to a cross with their arms out streached to eaither side
----------
The Romans would not take an interest in forming the cross, they were not Jews. They wouldn't take the time and effort, they were just going to kill Jesus, after all. They weren't idolating the fact that they were going to torture Jesus, to make him suffer, to make fun of him. They wouldn't take the time and effort in doing so, they would just want to cut down a tree and be done with it. So, in conclusion, the proper rendering for Σταυρός would be a pale.

Contrary to the above:The Romans indeed would not fashion a cross specifically for Jesus, as crucifixion was a common occurrence and a means of execution reserved for any non-Roman who was sentenced to death. Roman citizens were beheaded. Therefore crosses were used and re-used over and over again and would be abundant. Jews were not particularly interested in crosses - contrary to the above - as the cross is a Christian symbol that dates back to the earliest church and the crucifixion if the carvings in the Roman catacombs that were fashioned by the earliest Christians are indicative of what actually happened. Some of these carvings date from the time when there would still be Christians around who were actual eyewitnesses to the events and the fact that they carved crosses indicates strongly that the cross was indeed a cross shaped means of execution, and not a stake. In fact, the Greek for stake is πάσσαλος whereas the Greek for cross is σταυρός. It is this term, σταυρός, that is used, for instance, in John's gospel as the means of execution of Jesus, John being the only Gospel writer who was actually an eyewitness. If a stake had been used, then the term would have beenπάσσαλος. Similarly, the word crucifixion comes from crucifixus meaning, in Latin, to nail to a cross or, in Latin, crucis. This refers to an actuall cross - + and not a stake.So, no matter what fanciful ideas are mooted about the crucifixion of Jesus one cannot fly in the face of historical, archaeological, documental, linguistic and scientific evidence. To suggest otherwise is, frankly, launching into the realms of fantasy.
If the condom broke but your period started 5 days later could you still be pregnant?
Not likely. Starting your period is an indication that you are not pregnant. However, some women's periods continue (usually lightly) in the early stages of pregnancy. It is not something to be too concerned about, though, this is rather rare. Try a pregnancy test, most over the counter ones are fairly accurate and can be done 5 weeks after the possible conception has taken place.
Yes, you could be pregnant.
I'm guessing you are early in the pregnancy and if you would miscarry now there's nothing to do. In the first trimester it's usually because the fetus isn't healthy enough to make it so Mother Nature takes care of it. Just rest like they told you and follow their orders. That's the only thing you can do right now. See to that you have someone with you or someone that can pop over when you need them.
If you didn't know you were pregnant how do you know if you had a miscarriage?
If the bleeding is heavy and you need a dilation and curettage, the lab work will show products of conception. If however you miscarry around the time of a period or a few days later you may not know it is a miscarriage. There is no need to worry about this, it is thought about 50% of pregnancies end like this before the woman even knew she was pregnant.
Heavy cramping or bleeding (including clots) maybe a sign but to know for sure you should contact your physician or OBGYN.
My mother's doctor told her during a routine exam that he could tell she'd had a miscarriage. She was surprised because she had not even known she was pregnant. I'm not sure how he could tell, so you would need to ask a medical professional. I think I had one in between having my two children. I had a lot of pregnancy symptoms and was 95% sure I was pregnant. Not long after my period was due, I had severe cramps that left me in tears, then heavy bleeding. It was unlike any period I'd had before. Anyway, many women have miscarriages without every knowing they were pregnant. It does not necessarily affect your chances of becoming pregnant again.
You had your period no clots or cramps and was light are you pregnant?
i had a very light period a rusty redish brown color it wasnt so much a flo i didnt even have to change my pad for 2 days if i didnt want to mostly pink when i wiped no clots but i did had a stringy mucus bright red come out once while i went to the bathroom. i know for a fact being a nurse that the implantation bleeding can vary for every woman it isnt only pink and brown it can be red pink brown it wont be a regular flo like a normal period thats for sure but it will sometimes require a pad or a panty liner. i didnt have cramps but some people have them as well
If your partner ejaculated once and you are ovulating, you can be pregnant, whether or not you have discharge. If you do not get your period on time, do a pregnancy test.
Time to take the pregnancy test!
Can getting really upset during very early pregnancy cause bleeding?
There are many things that can cause bleeding early in pregnancy. Keep in mind that when you are pregnant your blood volume doubles and your cervix is very sensitive. It is common to bleed after sex. It is also possible that if you are very early the baby is imbedding and that is causing bleeding. There is also always the possibility that you are miscarrying. The only way to know for sure that everything is alright is to contact your doctor and be checked out. I wish you the best of luck!
I HAD AN IUD AS WELL & I HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO ME! THEN I STARTED GETTING PERIODS EVERY TWO WEEKS. IT DROVE ME AND MY HUSBAND NUTS! AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED W/ THE CRAMPS. I WENT TO THE DOCTOR & THEY CHECKED AND SAID THE IUD WAS IRITATING MY UTERUS. NEVERTHELEES I GOT IT PULLED OUT & AM NOW ON THE NUVARING :)
Not really. I suggest that it is your period. Not all periods are long or heavy some only last a day or two. You don't say if you are on a pill or not. This could make a difference if you have started the pill. If you are young and just started your period it takes time to settle down as well. There are many factors besides pregnancy that can cause a period to be light, heavy, or short.
The odds are u are pregnant!
Is it possible to still get pregnant with PCOs when on Metformin?
It's not only possible, but more likely (though it doesn't work for everyone). I am a 30ish-year old woman of healthy weight treating my PCOS with 1500mg Metformin daily in hopes of conceiving my fourth child. Metformin is a recommended treatment for women wishing to conceive and suffering from PCOS; it oftentimes restores ovulation. In my case, this appears to be true! YAY!! My DH and I will be thrilled if a pregnancy results before having to resort to injectables like we did ttc our third precious child (we conceived our first two in our young years of marriage...naturally, despite my extremely long, sometimes anovulatory cycles). Many REs will combine Met with Clomid. Clomid and I don't get along, though. Best wishes and HTH! M, happily married to my sweetheart almost 10 years now! Blessed with three, gorgeous children.
Hello, The Doctor can probably hazard a guess based on your last period date but without any proper diagnostic testing it wouldn't be very accurate. ------------------------------------------------------------ Please note this is advice only & is not to be used in place of a Medical experts. ------------------------------------------------------------
What must happen for historians to consider a particular time in a civilization a classical period?
In order for historians to consider a particular time in a civilization a classical period, the civilization has to make remarkable achievements in areas such as science and art. An example is Classical Greece.
Can you wear a tampon to stop vaginal bleeding if you are pregnant?
I wouldn't recommend a tampon because of the risk of infection. However, using a menstrual cup should be fine!
I have had three positive urine pregnancy tests and a negative blood test which is corrct?
I had the same thing happen to me. I took several home pregnancy tests that came back positive. I went to the doctor they did a blood test and it came back as negative. They sent me to hospital to do a 48 hour hormone test and determined I was miscarraging the baby. You should ask your doctor if this is hapening to you. Hope this helps.
It's probably just because of your period
Is it safe to have a biopsy on your cervix done when you are 30 weeks pregnant?
If the doctor knows you are 30 weeks pregnant and wants to do it, it's probably safe. If you have questions, talk to the doctor and find out if there are any risks and what they are.
