Anyone thinks that might be pregnant waiting for the right time to test?

I have 3 kids and although this time along wasnt planned I think I might be PG again. If I am, I will be really happy about it although we will need to make many changes in our lives. Im very bloated and feel really tired and sleepy all the time. Felling sick and nauseous all day and feeling sometimes mild period cramps, horrible metallic taste in my mouth that really makes me unable to eat. My last AF was on the 19 of March. So I think I'll be testing in the weekend cos I cant wait to know what is going on. Is any of you with the same feelings and symptoms?

I'm not in the same boat, but didn't want to leave your post unanswered.

As it's only a few days before your period's due (assuming normal 28 day cycle) could you get one of those early pregnancy tests? It must be agonising waiting for the weekend!

I hope everything goes well for you. Smile

yes me :) If period doesn't arrive by sunday I'll be testing then. Have 1 DC 2.5 and I want another although DH doesn't yet Confused but we had unprotected sex mid cycle. I couldn't drink my coffee the other day and it smelt vile, I'm exhausted in the afternoons, had indigestion for several days and been very constipated and having headaches. I know I could be making it fit but it seems like I do have more than one symptom and strongly.

I'll let you know!

thanks Saoirse very thoughtful of you to reply. Im actually terrified of the outcome. Im 90 percent sure Im pregnant cos with my other 3 i figure it out a week before I could test it so I know but there is still a possibility of not being pg, u never know. My DH is not really keen on having the baby I know that with time he will accept it but is going to be hard on him. He didnt even want to go for DC#3. So even if I would love to be pg I cant fully enjoy this moment, feeling very down at the moment Sad. EricNort U have being pg already so u know the signs that ur body is sending u. Hope the outcome is positive for you Dh will deal with it a bit later. They need more time to accept it. good luck to u anyways.
sometimes I think that we want to believe that much that we r pg that maybe provoke in ourselves all the symptoms :)

That's a shame it can't be an exciting time for you. It can be scary even if it's planned but I'm sure things will seem exciting for him at some point, that's if you are pregnant!

A couple of months ago I was convinced I was pg, possibly because I wanted to be although we're not planning it and the timing would've been awful. I did a test and it was negative and felt really down about it. I did another one a week later just to make sure too. I wasn't sure about my symptoms from the first time because I didn't find out till I was 8 weeks. I hadn't even noticed anything! Blush

must have been a nice surprise for u. What I guess when they r unplanned it's a bit of a shock more for the father that starts wondering how did that happen. I guess women in a way are always ready for a positive outcome. Still pretty scare though cos as u said the timing for us is not the best either but we get 9 months to be ready isn't it. how far r u? and how many kids do u have?

inni I only have one and she's 6 1/2 months. I'm not pg, just kind of want to be, but don't at the same time. Confused

DD wasn't planned because I was told I couldn't conceive. I was bleeding every day for 2 1/2 years until I was 7 weeks pg. I still had quite a bit of bleeding until about 14/15 weeks.

It was a nice surprise, but I was more scared than DP. I was only 23, at uni, felt very young and not ready. DP was 33, has a good job, felt older and very ready! It turned out he'd been devastated when I told him I couldn't conceive naturally but never said anything as that was early in our relationship.

It all worked out pretty well really! Smile

Have you spoken to your DH about the possibly number 4?
