Could I be?


CMD3989 wrote: Hi. I'm not quite to sure if I'm pregnant or not. I got my period May 10, 2004-May 14, 2004 and I had sex May 15, 2004, May 20, 2004 and June 2, 2004. (It was all unprotected except for the pull out method which can still contain sperm.) I got my period June 7, 2004-June 12, 2004 but it was watery and clear like. It was still red though. It lasted for 5 days like normal but it came late in the day which is not normal. My period usually comes at the same time every month. Lately I have been a bit nauseous, I have frequent urination, and the week before my last period(The week of May 31st) my breast were swollen and very tender. My tummy seems bigger but only at night before I go to bed. I was supposed to ovulate June 21st or June 22nd. I don't think I did. Is is possible that I could be pregnant?

alice&arik replied: I don't know too much about it, but when I first got pregnant, my boobs swelled up and were really sore within the first month. And I was really cranky. And had the car sick feeling all the time. So maybe you could be.

I am sure someone else here will have some better clues than me. thumb.gif

kimberley replied: wavey.gif long time no see! hmm the symptoms you are having would lead me to think you are pg and some people can still get a period. the only way to know for sure is have your blood tested at a clinic. they can tell very early on and it is more accurate that way. otherwise, it could just be a bad period, the flu, a UTI or bladder infection or even stress. just curious, how do you feel about the possibility of being pg again? i hope you get the results you want. grouphug.gif

CMD3989 replied:
biggrin.gif Thanks for welcoming me back. I would love to get a test but I have no way to get to a clinic. I could walk to the nearest drug store but I guess I'm afraid to see the results of the test . I would love to be PG but I know now might not be the best time. If I get a BFN I will be a bit disappointed and if I get a BFP I will be really excited but nervous at the same time. Thanks for your support.

kimberley replied: i completely understand your hesitation to take the HPT. i took one a few weeks ago and was terrified of the results since now is definitely not the best time financially for us to have another baby. i breathed a sigh of relief when i saw the BFN but was a little disappointed, you know? i am so over it now though lol. i am going back on the Depo shot next week. let us know if you decide to test. hope you are feeling better soon.

CMD3989 replied: That is exactly how I feel. I think I will test tomorrow if I get the chance. I will let you guys know as soon as I find out.

MommyToAshley replied: Welcome Back!

You could very well be PG, I would recommend testing as well. I hope you get the results you are hoping for. grouphug.gif

CMD3989 replied: Thank you so much for your support. grouphug.gif

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of where I could send my little sis while I'm doing this? I'm home with her and I don't want her to know.


Chelci

coasterqueen replied: Chelci, sorry I didn't get back to your pm. grouphug.gif

I would definitely test! Let us know how it goes wink.gif grouphug.gif

Just let your little sis keep busy watching tv or something. Tell her you gotta go to the bathroom. Do the test, go back into where your sis is at and go back into the bathroom when 3 minutes (if I remember correctly, lol) is up. wink.gif

CMD3989 replied: Well, she would have to come with me to buy one. I would have to walk to the store. What do I do with her then?

Also, I have a metallic taste in my mouth. I heard that could be a symptom. Is that true? I just ate some Honeycomb's cereal so I am a tad bit nauseous and I have the metal taste in my mouth. What do you guys think?


Chelci

kimberley replied: you really should test! is there a magazine or toy section in the drug store? leave her there for a minute while you pay for the test. or else, get her an ice cream and leave her just outside the door of the store (since she can't eat it inside). i have discreetly bought HPT and no one with me knew, you just have to be fast and buy other things with it (like pads or a box of kleenex so they can't tell what's in the bag). good luck! thumb.gif

CMD3989 replied: Thanks that's a good idea. I have one more question. My breasts aren't sore but I get a shooting pain in them every once in a while. Is that a sign?


Chelci

CMD3989 replied: Sorry, I have two more questions. Is First Response Early Pregnancy Test good to use and should I buy the box with one or two in it?



Chelci

mummy2girls replied: home tests are usually pretty accurate. But i would buy the one with 2 of them in it because with jenna it took me a couple times..first one was neg and the second pos... Good luck and i hope it turns out the way you want it.

Are you married? or single? or dateing?

kimberley replied: i never had shooting pains in my breasts but any soreness could be pg related. and i would definitely buy the one with 2 tests because i also tested neg then pos a couple of weeks later with my angel pg. First Response is a good one. actually, they are all pretty good nowadays.

CMD3989 replied: Ok. Thanks. I have a terrible headache. sad.gif

CMD3989 replied:
I am dating my boyfriend. He is(if I'm pregnant) the father of my baby.

CMD3989 replied: I just went out a bought a test and the result was negative. I just thought I'd let you know.



Chelci

kimberley replied: don't forget to test again maybe next week and do it first thing in the morning. it's the best time because it has the highest concentration of HcG in your blood. grouphug.gif grouphug.gif hope you feel better soon.

CMD3989 replied: Thanks.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: grouphug.gif I'm sorry your test was negative. If you still have these symptoms I would go and get a blood test done. Please keep us posted. grouphug.gif

CMD3989 replied: Thanks. I think the test was right. I think all the symptoms were in my head or I made them come true. If you know what I mean. If not look up the word pseudocyesis.

amynicole21 replied: I'm sorry... not sure what you really wanted the outcome to be, but it sounds like you psyched yourself up for it. sad.gif I know what you mean about "thinking things true" - especially when it comes to pregnancy. I would have SWORN to you that I was pregnant a few months ago - breast tenderness, nausea, cramping - the whole bit. I wasn't, obviously, but I had totally convinced myself.

I would still test again in a few days - especially if you are still feeling the symptoms. Good luck to you!

CMD3989 replied: Ok. If I am still feeling symptoms I will test again in a few days. I am having cramping now. A new symptom. I would really like to know what's going on.
