Could I be pregnant?

54 replies

netflixlove · 29/06/2019 14:58

Just looked on my period tracker app and apparently I'm due on tomorrow which is weird since I have no period symptoms and I suffer really badly with cramps before and during every month.

I've been in all day today feeling really nauseas- started last night (2am ish) and have weird taste in mouth. No D&V either and I don't feel like I need to throw up.

I did also have 2 'periods' last month- the second one was shorter (like 2 days or so) and not as painful and about 2 weeks after the first one.

We (DP & I) are not trying to get pregnant and use condoms as BC, always super careful too and check them afterwards incase of accidental splitting.

Am I going crazy?

Another one off-topic but my pregnancy nausea started around 5 1/2 weeks in both and then didn't completely abate until around 25 weeks Envy (not envy).

@joystir59 Thank you, I don't know what I want really. I'm just going to wait and see if my period comes next week then I'll test if it's not come by thurs/fri I think.

Had a huge argument with my boyfriend tonight so not feeling particularly great right now!

Update: No period so far and no cramping signs either.

Had a horrid day feeling really tired, holding off for a few more days before I test as I've had periods quite late before.

Omg why are you drawing this out so much. Are you usually this dramatic?? Grin

Just take a test!

Damntheman · 04/07/2019 10:11

Taking a test is the only way to know OP. Unless you want to wait 40 weeks and see if a child pops out.

@Damntheman  I feel stupid as I know if I buy a test my bloody period will come that day 😂

@lilpumpsmum You're right, I'll get one today, a cheap one will be fine right?

Just test today, you’ll save yourself stress

NeverGotMyPuppy · 04/07/2019 13:36

This is all a bit silly.
Buy a test.
Test in first morning urine.
Done.

Blubluboo · 04/07/2019 13:48

This is ridiculous, you've had sex, period is late and you won't just pee on a stick to see if you are pregnant. Get one from the pound shop!

I know, you guys are right- I'm scared though! Trying to go to college and being pregnant isn't the best combo!

Pretending it isn’t happening won’t make it go away. Be brave, take a test and at least then you can act on the result.

Either negative= presumably a massive relief so you can stop worrying. Or positive= a bit shit but at least you have time to make a decision. You’re just causing yourself unnecessary anxiety drawing it out.

Damntheman · 04/07/2019 14:48

OP buying a test or telling my mum I was late were always my guaranteed period summoning tools 😂 take the test love, hen as PP says you've still got time to make a decision.

@Damntheman 😂 that sounds about right! I don't live at home anymore (I'm 20 and moved in with my partner at 18) so I'm deffo not telling my mum unless I find out I am!

You're right, @Pinkmalinky I just need to do it, and if I am I have to get doctors appointments as I'm on meds that you aren't great to take whilst pregnant so i'd have to get that sorted.

I don't think I could have an abortion if I am and that's so scary to me.

I'm going out for a run at 6 so I'll buy a test from the shop on the way back.

Thanks for the supportThanks

Hi guys, test just arrived and I tested straight away, hadn't gone for a wee yet.

It's negative but after reading instructions I realised I held it wrong as I peed on it, can I still be pregnant but get a negative from doing it wrong?

Still no period, such a mind fuck!

I guess if you've done it wrong then yes you could still be pregnant...?
But yes, that test shows no second line..

@Blubluboo I'm so confused (and really stressed!) do you have to do it exactly how the packet says? I held it up and peed on it for 5 secs but after reading closely it says you have to hold it facing down and with the creek facing away.

thelonearranger · 05/07/2019 14:16

Are you able to buy a cheep one now just to give you peace of mind

@thelonearranger I do have another as the pack was 2. I think I'll just wait another week or so if my period still hasn't shown and test again.

Reading online suggests that it could be i ovulated late so nothing will show yet, Or I could just not be pregnant!

If you get the control line it's worked fine.
