Late cycle, than very light going on 8 days spotting plus 10lb weight gain In a month....help.
Started spotting at cd 34. Today is day 8 of very light spotting. Spotting is when I wipe or if on pad size of a pea or 2 as of 3 days ago. Before that maybe a dime. I'm usually 3 pads a day. 3 to 4 days with cramps 1 to 2 days which I have special meds for. I have also put on 10 lbs since Oct 7th. Cravings and hungry as heck. My Dr is over an hour away and my car is not running I need some advise please.

Use this calculator to help you decide when to take your first home pregnancy test.

If you're thinking the weight gain is because of a pregnancy it's very unlikely. In the entire first trimester women should only gain 1-5 pounds. By week 6 baby is still just the size of a lentil.
It's possible you're having breakthrough bleeding. Sometimes when progesterone is a bit low you'll get breakthrough bleeding which is normally spotting or very light bleeding.
If you think that you're pregnant the best thing you can do for yourself is to take a home pregnancy test. If cost is a concern you can get cheap tests at the Dollar Store and at Wal-mart (the First Signal brand is usually about 88cents). Taking a test would probably help put your mind at ease either way since at least then you'd know.
Hopefully you get the answer for which you're hoping. :)
