Posted on Sun, 6 Oct 2024
Question: I am late on my period but only a day. Today I have noticed blood in my stool, on the tissue and in the toilet. I know that this is not my period as I haven't been getting my usual period pains I always get the day before I come on.
Me and my boyfriend have been trying for a baby for over a year now, am I pregnant?
