I have had breast tenderness, for about 5 days, and have had frequent urination for about 7 days now.
i ovulated a little over a week ago, and had my last period sept 30, 2009.
Is it possible i am pregnant already, and having symptoms.
or is there another reason for this??

breast tenderness has never been an issue for me.

I have had on the say before i start my period, and that is it.
so this over a week thing. is crazy for me also.

I never noticed how tender my breasts got right before my period---until I was trying to get pregnant.

Then I saw pregnancy symptoms in EVERYTHING, I'd get my hopes up, and then I'd crash HARD when my period showed up every month because my hopes were so high.

See a doctor, get on prenatal pills, chart your ovulation, and wait until AFTER you miss a period to test.

Most couples take about a YEAR to get pregnant. If you ride the roller coaster of trying to figure out if you're pregnant before you even miss a period, then you're in for a LOT of horrid feelings when your period DOES show up. Pay attention to your body, but don't look at every little thing as a sign of pregnancy. MOST of the early signs of pregnancy are ALSO the signs that your period is about to show up.

oh ok.
so the vein thing is normal for periods, and the bumps?
oh and i also notices my nipples are darker.

I have never payed any attention to my breast before,
so it could have been like this all along,
but hope fully i am prego.

I notice the veins in my breasts more right before my period, and occasionally the bumps around my nipples.

If you are REALLY concerned, then you need to see a doctor.

You should be seeing one regularly anyway if you are trying to get pregnant.

i am actually due to start my period in about 5 days.
so you think that might be it??
I normally only have one day of breast tenderness right before my period, so i have had this for 10 days now, that is one of the reasons i thought i would post a question.

They are not so sore that it hurts to touch them, they are just s little tender now. I notice it more a night then during the day.

Really, we can't tell you for sure.

You could be pregnant, it could just be pms.

The only way to know for sure is to wait, test if you're late.

There's nothing more we can tell you.

amimommy

I know, sometimes I just want to know other's opinions.
I am scared to take a test, but afraid to start my period.
but i guess everything will happen the way it is supposed to.
my husband and i have been trying for 4 months now to get pregnant, so i guess it will happen when it is time.

but thankyou for all of your help

amimommy

ok so i started what might be my period, and it only lasted 2 1/2 days, and i did cramp.
I am usually 5 days.
I also started 5 days early.
how likely is this that it is just my period?
I have never been early, and never lasted less that 4 days.
but i heard the period change with every month.

Synnen

I'm sorry to say so, but it's PROBABLY just your period.

You really need to go into your gynecologist and discuss ALL of this with her. She can talk to you about charting ovulation, and get you on prenatal pills--and talk to you about getting TOO anxious every month about whether or not you are pregnant.

You are still in the early stages! Enjoy the "practice" for it, and start actually getting anxious and worried if you get to a year without getting pregnant.

amimommy

ok thanks
I am actually already on pre natal vitamins, for about 4 months now, and i have been charting my ovulation. but i guess it just is not working yet.
but it will.
If i can not pin point my ovulation, is it safe to insure possibly pregnancy to have intercourse every other day?
