To think I’m pregnant?

Last month I had a two day ‘period’, which came a week late anyway, my period before that and the one before was logged as the 25th until the 29th. Now this month I haven’t got my period and haven’t had any signs of it coming either. I’ve felt more tired than usual, very easily brought to tears which is not normal for me at all, I normally don’t cry over anything. What were your first signs of pregnancy?

Just go get a test.i hope it’s the result you want.

MumChp · 02/04/2024 21:12

Test?

MyOtherHusbandIsAWash · 02/04/2024 21:14

A positive pregnancy test. Any reason you’re choosing the MN magic 8-ball instead of doing a test? It’s cheaper but much less accurate.

jengachampion · 02/04/2024 21:14

If your period is late then a test will be accurate. Just take a test

Nobody here can tell you

Because I can’t get one until tomorrow and I’m sitting here day dreaming lol!

Bro, just do a pregnancy test.

ThreePointOneFourOneFiveNine · 03/04/2024 19:27

It sounds like you could be, but there are other things that can mess up your cycle too, stress being a bug factor. I guess it's more likely if you were actually trying. A friend of mine had a full period the first month she was pregnant. She went for the three month scan and was told she was four months pregnant. With my second I was throwing up by five weeks, but my first didn't produce such obvious symptoms so early.

I’ve still not been able to get a pregnancy test but I still haven’t got my period! My last proper period was the 25th of January and it’s been logged as the 25th of each month since give or take a day pretty much since I got the app a few months ago. I then had a 2 day bleed on the 1st of March which is unusual as pretty much 100% of my periods are logged as 5 days every time as well. I’m not necessarily trying but I assumed I was infertile tbh as I’ve been with my boyfriend for a year and a half, the first time we didn’t use protection (stupidly) we panicked thinking I would get pregnant and I didn’t. Since then we slowly started getting more relaxed with not using protection and now we’re at the point of almost never using it, and we have been like this for maybe 6 months? I just slowly started accepting I wasn’t becoming pregnant so it clearly isn’t a high risk. Now this. I’ve had a couple of scares in the past as well and convinced myself and then I’ve done a test and it’s been negative. But I haven’t had this with my period happening before. I’m now 3 days late from my last 2 day bleed, and a week late from the 25th, when my usual due date is.

I threw up a couple of days ago but obviously it could be unrelated reasons most likely

Why won’t you just do a test?!

Corinthiana · 04/04/2024 14:38

Pee on a stick, as others have said.
No-one on here can tell you.

Kpo58 · 04/04/2024 14:41

If you can't get to a local shop to pick a test up, then buy one off Amazon.

Painalloverallthetime · 04/04/2024 14:42

Is your boyfriend aware you're both trying for a baby and on board with that? Seems a bit ridiculous to not be using protection if you're 'not necessarily trying'?

Edited

Yes - have you discussed this thoroughly with him?

kintra · 04/04/2024 14:48

Jesus wept. Not falling pregnant immediately does not mean you are infertile (and is actually pretty offensive to women who are). Are people really this stupid? I'm not sure I believe this actually, it's not difficult to obtain a test.

Floatinginatincan · 04/04/2024 14:50

Are you female?
Have you had unprotected sex?
If the answer to both is yes, then you could be pregnant. Take a test. Strangers on the internet can't tell you the answer.

My breast were very tender and sore and l went off certain food long before l got tested ( didn't have home tests then).

IAmAnIdiot123 · 04/04/2024 14:53

I had no symptoms pretty much all the way through both of my pregnancies. No weird cravings or wild emotions, my boons weren't overly tender or anything. Tbh if it wasn't for the growing belly I wouldn't have been able to tell i was pregnant.

takealettermsjones · 04/04/2024 14:53

Do you want to be pregnant? Why can't you get a test from a supermarket? This is a very odd post.

SlowlyLurking · 04/04/2024 14:56

How have you not been able to pick up a test in two days. I'd be looking in to managing your time better if you are pregnant.

Overthebow · 04/04/2024 14:56

Just go out and buy a test, or order one online. You won’t know unless you do, you could be pregnant or it could be a number of other reasons.
