Pregnancy symptoms after period--is it possible?

Hi all! I'd really appreciate your input! I'm in Korea now, and any obgyn visits or tests are super expensive. I need to know if I should request a pregnancy blood test (which runs nearly $100 here!).

I started my period a week early this month, which has NEVER happened. It was very odd and I had cramps the whole 6 days instead of the first 2 days like usual. Then the cramps didn't stop! I've been to two doctors and they say it's just a weird cycle caused by stress...

But now I'm starting to feel the same symptoms as my last pregnancy: fatigue, sore breasts, frequent urination, and what feels like morning sickness (vomiting once a day and nausea throughout).

Ive taken 3 hpt over the last two weeks, the most recent tonight, all negative. It seems so unlikely, but...what do you think? If my last period wasn't a real "period," I'd be 6 weeks.

TL;DR Has anyone ever been pregnant after a full on period? Should I bite the bullet and get a blood test? Thanks!!

I would be hesitant to spend that amount of money after resting for two weeks and getting negatives.

When was the first day of your last period? Do you have an idea of your fertile window? Are you regular? As these could help answer your question.

Just my opinion but if you are tempted and it's causing you stress than do it for yourself! Most of us are quite intuitive with our bodies so if you recognise symptoms then it's possible, anything is possible! Good luck Flowers

Thanks! I'm usually very regular and my cycle is around 30 days I believe. My last normal period was Oct 13, then this weird one was Nov 7. It's been two weeks since it ended, but I'm still having cramps and all kinds of strange symptoms.

That is the first day of my last cycle! Not sure if you track ovulation but perhaps you ovulated later and this is why your cycle appears out of sync?

Hope you get the answer you want Flowers
