Metal taste, a symptom this early?

Hi, my period is due tomorrow, but so far i have no cramps or bloating. A few days ago, I started tasting a metal-like taste every time I had a drink. The next day, I thought I could taste this metal-like taste in my mouth even when I wasn't eating or drinking anything.

Although this taste has seemed to subside in the last day or two, it was just so potent a few days ago, that I can't seem to stop thinking about the possibility that I might be pregnant.

We are not trying, but we havnt been using any contraception except the pull out method.

Any thoughts you have would be great!

Only way you can possibly tell if you're pregnant is doing a test.
No one here can tell you.

Oh and you say you haven't been trying but you haven't been using contraception and using the 'pull out' method, which isn't a method, so yes evidently you have been trying.

Good luck Smile

Have you bit your tongue? Have you done a test? Sorry but pulling out is not responsible, and I'm going to go ahead and say this, please be more responsible. I hope this is a false alarm for you!
