This is my first month purposely trying to conceive. I wasn't on birth control but up until this point, my boyfriend has always used condoms. We feel as though it is the right time in our lives to have a baby. I have irregular periods. by irregular, i mean some months they are 30 something days apart, but 9 times out of 10 i go months on end without a period. well, I had a period on December 12, and I know its a long time to wait but i am pretty certain I ovulated on the 3rd of January. We had intercourse new years eve, jan 2, 3 and 5th. Then today, I am spotting. its barely enough to even need a tampon. I dont really have any other signs of being pregnant other than the last two days I've wanted nothing but salty things and normally I have a sweet tooth. I generally dont eat chips, crackers, or such but these last two days have been crazy. but again, no other signs. Could i be pregnant? What were the chances of it working our first month? I have been taking prenatal vitamins for about a month just to prepare my body. I normally have heavy periods, and this is VERY light. IF i had a normal 28 day cycle, today would be the day I would have suppsed to have started my period, BUT I'm 23 *started my period at 13* and i have NEVER EVER EVER had a 28 day cycle. so if this is just my period, this is the first time its ever been "on time"
