take a home pregnancy test then and you will know for sure.

japhrimel · 31/10/2010 18:25

Yep, take a test.

juneybean · 31/10/2010 18:26

What do you want us to do exactly?

SlaughteredSheep · 31/10/2010 18:28

Pregnancy test! They do free ones at the Dr or family planning clinic if you don't want to go and buy one.

SmacsGotABigWitchyWart · 31/10/2010 18:28

You can buy them cheap on ebay if you don't want to go to a chemist/supermarket incase you see someone you know.

You need to do a pregnancy test, it's the only thing that will give you an indication of whether you are pregnant or not.

It seems likely, seeing as you are 10 days late and have a good few symptoms, but they could also be down to a virus or even just stress.

Do a test and then you at least know whether to worry or not.

some people are worriers and other people don't see the point in worrying unless there is a reason. Do a test tomorrow and you will know for sure, one way or the other.
Have you been using contraception?

juney that's a bit mean, sometimes people need a bit of moral support.

Hope you get the result you want nomi.

I was just going to ask the same thing as juney.

"Result she wants" is obviously "not pregnant", otherwise she would not be panicking here.

What is it you're worried about?
Anything we can help with?

Can you go to a chemists now and get a test?

CoteDAzur · 31/10/2010 18:58

So you want to be pregnant and there is a good chance that you are indeed pregnant. Why exactly are you going "pleaaassse help!!!!!!"? Hmm

We would like to help, but would also like to understand what you need help with.

TubbyDuffs · 31/10/2010 18:58

No point wondering either way, just get out and buy a test. Once you know, you can tackle things with your boyfriend.

Seems a bit odd that you are "worried" that you are pregnant, but that you do actually want to be pregnant. Make you mind up ; )

TubbyDuffs · 31/10/2010 19:08

Yes I can understand being worried once you know you are pregnant, but that is not the way I read the OP, I read it as "Oh crap I think I'm pregnant" sort of worried.

Either way, hope things work out for you nomi.

I'm pregnant and I'm massively worried!

Does your boyfriend want a baby? Why is he being so dismissive? Is he in denial do you think? I think you need to talk to him properly to get an understanding of what it will mean for your relationship.

Mumsnet can be a really supportive place, but you generally have to think quite carefully how you word your original posts, because a lot of people will make quick judgments (as I'm sure you would too). Also, writing things out in full will mean that you are less likely to receive skeptical replies.

Having a baby at any age is worrying and stressful. 20 isn't particularly young, you will find support on here from people who started their families at 20 or younger. If you want to be pregnant you must keep feeling positive about this, but also think practically.

I hope the test tomorrow turns out how you want, I'll be here waiting to hear how you got on. Please do chat to your boyfriend though, he needs to be involved too.
