Okay, so I had a recent post.. but I still have another question. I know all the answers on here are based on both experience and knowledge. If you have not experienced this personally or do not have the correct knowledge-- meaning do not guess at it-- then please do not answer this question. In my eyes this is a serious matter. You can get more information by reading my other question. It's the only other one I have. Now on to the question...

I have still been having symptoms of pregnancy and I get more and more every single day. I have been waking up with headaches and having them all day, feeling VERY nauseous at night, and its like only at night time. I have been wanting to go to bed early when I am normally a night owl. The little bumps around my nipples are getting more and more noticeable, my breasts itch more, my nipples feel cracked and sore. I feel like I am having more mood swings... but I am still waiting to see if I get a period. According to an online period calculator, if I would have gotten pregnant this time around, I would be 2 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Is this possible to be having all these symptoms and have them increasing more and more everyday? Or do you think that my mind and body are playing tricks and its all in my head? I mean we were not trying or not trying lol-- if that makes sense. We had the attitude -- if it happens then it happens. So I am not sure why it would all be in my head, but then again with me, anything is possible. LOL

Why don't you just go visit your doctor to figure this out it would be a much quicker process then trying to figure out if your pregnant online.

Well I would do that but there are a few problems. 1. I have already been to the er because of the pain and they said if I am pregnant based on my periods it would be too early to tell. 2. I do not have a regular doctor and 3. I can't get one because I have no insurance. I am not trying to find out of I am pregnant or not, I am just simply asking if at 2 weeks pregnant it is normal for a woman to have these symptoms or could my mind and body be playing tricks on me. ARE YOU ALWAYS SO RUDE? IF SO THEN PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER ANYMORE OF MY QUESTIONS. THANKS

Wow. Now your sounding rude tkraus.


First off, you CANNOT stipulate who can and who cannot answer your questions on this site.

GET OVER IT.

Now. On to your question. I guess I'm going to be rude to...

GO TO A DOCTOR OR TAKE A PREGNANCY TEST.
THESE ARE YOUR ONLY OPTIONS.
'i can't do it' is no excuse. If your as 'serious' as you SAY you are. You will get it done.


Have a nice day hon :)

Some women do feel symptoms before a missed period, or it could be your mind playing tricks on you as well. Some of the symptoms of early pregnancy are also felt prior to a period for some women too.

Time will tell which it may be.

Thank you for being so polite to me. I understand that this could be either way. I just wonder if I should take into consideration the fact that I NEVER feel this way before, during or after my period. I have had 3 children and the only time I felt this way is when I have been pregnant. But then again I wonder if it could be my mind playing tricks. I am exactly one week and one day out from my period so I guess time will tell. Thanks for your support and let me know if you have any other ideas!

Please don't attempt to dictate who could/should answer your questions or otherwise police or monitor the boards - unless, of course, you're an expert or a monitor.

Your rudeness will be met by similar rudeness. Everyone here is a volunteer. Thousands of "am I pregnant?" questions are posted and everyone is doing their best to stay current and give good info. Your hostility is disruptive.

Also, please stop opening new threads - should be combined with this: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/pregnancy-new-motherhood/could-pregnant-386311.html#post1922589

I just know from other other forums that people are naturally rude online and I was asking a simple question. I was not being HOSTILE. I was simply asking for people NOT to be rude, which is what they did anyway. And as far as opening a new thread goes, it is a new question so I FELT that it was appropriate so that is what I did. And its not like I do this ALL THE TIME, this is my second "thread". So please do not make me out to be a re-offender for the last year or something. And people need to take other people into consideration when responding. Especially pregnancy questions,, these are other peoples hormones, emotions and feelings that you are playing with.. all I am asking is that people be civil and considerate. I may be new to this site but I am owner of other groups and senior members on other sites so I know what should and should not be allowed. And I also know that if people that do not know the answer avoid answering instead of wasting time and guessing or putting answers that make NO sense, it SAVES A lot of trouble, hurt and misunderstanding as well as CONFUSION! Thank you for letting me utilize my freedom of speech and have a GREAT DAY :)

I would like to know how you feel telling you to see a doctor is rude...

i would like to know how you feel telling you to see a doctor is rude...

Because I explained in the very beginning in the post that I would ONLY be 2 weeks and now 6 days. WAY too early for the doctor to tell even through blood. I CLEARLY stated that and that I was just asking if it is possible or if anyone has ever experienced symptoms like me and 2.5 weeks pregnant. I am not trying to be rude to anyone, I am just very confused and look for some support.

When you open yourself up to a public board, you cannot dictate who does and who does not answer your question.

Now, on to your question.

You very well could be pregnant. You know your body better than we do. For some women symptoms do appear this early, and yes it is too early to test.

Please forgive me, but I don't remember if you have missed your period yet.

Doesn't matter. A doctor needs to make sure this isn't something ELSE. Regardless of the fact you may or may not be pregnant. There are so many other things your symptoms could be caused by.

I had 2 periods in one month last month. So based on the LAST period. No I have not missed, I am one week out! And thank you for answering my question!

Also, if you would have looked at my other post and read my updates, I was seen by a doctor and they told me that it was too early to tell. And that for right now they are diagnosing me with pms. I have had TONS of blood work, cat scan, ultrasound and other testing and they have all been normal. But thank you for your concern! I guess my 2 options are PMS-- which I have never experienced like this before or Pregnancy.. time will tell. Thanks to all! I will figure out how to close this post or "thread" or cancel it and that will be the end of my questions. Thanks

I'm only trying to help hon. You're the one who got defensive and rude sounding. Sorry if you weren't trying to be rude.

I put your symptoms into webmd. And it said with all your symptoms you could be suffering from (in order of the MOST likely FIRST)

PMS
Pregnancy
Cluster Headache
Migrain headache
Acute sinusitis
Carbon monoxide poisoning (doubt it lol)
MS (multiple scleorsis)
Medication reaction or side effect
Aseptic meningitis.

So as you can see, the spectrum for your symptoms is HUGE.

All I can tell you hon, is wait a few more weeks, or a month, try to stay calm, and take a pregnancy test. Stress is only going to make your period late and make you worry more. So try hard to relax.

And your PMS symptoms can change often. I never ever had any PMS issues aside from bleeding. And now as an adult, I get the cramps headaches fatigue etc.

I am just wondering if you hear of women that have symptoms this early and how likely is it that this is all in my head? I mean, does that really happen? Imagining symptoms? I have HEARD people talk about it if you want to be pregnant so bad and have been trying for a LONG time. But I do not really know, this is all new for me if its just PMS. I have only felt these things when I have been pregnant. I am so scared because of the situation and the ups and downs in my life. But I have been through a divorce I didn't want all because my ex-husband cheated on me and got the girl pregnant and instead of talking to me about it and seeing if we could work it out. He hid it from me and filed the divorce, lied about the reasons and I just now found out and she's 5 months pregnant. OH, well. They say that God will not throw me anything I can't handle right?

Sweetie, I have been in your shoes, and the ex's daughter is now pregnant at age 17.

Since you are under so much stress it may just be your imagination. There is no way for me to predict, as a nurse, what that percentage would be. Every woman is pregnant, every pregnancy is different.

Sometimes we have an off cycle that we experience all the bells and whistles of pregnancy, even when we aren't. The only thing you can do now is to wait for the period. If it is late, then test using first morning urine.

Aug 16, 2009, 06:21 PM
Well J_9 already told you that YES women can experience them this early.

And YES it could all be in your head as I have done this many times myself.

Thank you all SO much for your help and support. I am truly sorry for the conflict. I just have never been through this much stuff in my life and so young at that. I have regular periods all the up till last month which I explained in my last question and I went through way more stress than this when I first got divorced. I have been divorced for a few months now. I used to cry all day and cry myself to sleep at night and didn't eat for WEEKS but I still managed to have a NORMAL period lol. We will see. My understanding is that I will be able to test on the 20th-- 10 dpo. And if I get a bfn I will more than likely test the day of. I'm a poas ADDICT I guess LOL. Thanks again.

Keep us posted, let us know how it goes. So many times people come here, ask their questions and then never return to let us know what happened.

I wish you luck. I know it's hard to wait but really, that's your only option.

Good luck.

Not trying to be rude but if a doctor can't tell how would we?
A doctor knows pregnancy symptoms and so forth just as well as we do if not better
My sister took a home pregnancy test a couple days into her pregnancy and it was positive.
She went a week later and the doctor told her she had been pregnant but lost it.
He said it had only been a few days into the pregnancy too

Okay, I think people are not understand what I was trying to ask-- my question got answered-- all I was asking was is it possible, normal, heard of etc.. To get pregnancy symptoms at 2 weeks pregnant according to the american system (so technically you are only a few days pregnant) if I am pregnant I would bow be considered 3 weeks according to the american system but actually really only 1 week pregnant. I no longer need this thread unless there are still a few people out there that want to see what happens. If not, then how do I close the thread?

I'm not sure what this means either, but every state varies and in my state, once you get pregnant you can get pregnancy insurance based on your income... that stuff really isn't any of anyone's business I was just asking a simple question about pregnancy. I do not have regular insurance. Once I confirm one way or the other, then I will know what to do about insurance and IF I am pregnant, I will have insurance. Wow, you guys really couldn't just leave it at the other thread.. you have to keep harassing me on my own thread.. that's sad

A. kadehadaraire is about as new as you so they are not ''one of us'' They are far from a regular here even though they happened to sign up a couple years ago.
B. I think Kade meant to give a greenie.
C. you are right insurance doesn't pertain to your question
D. People do comment on single moms getting pregnant and not knowing how they are going to afford a baby and then often end up on welfare. Then people who make remarks about it are complaining because it is their tax dollars
But again that is neither here nor there with your question as you said

Well, here's a simple freaking statement for you - do NOT contact me by PM again.

And, again - if you want the thread to die, stop posting.

As far as people getting jumpy about this thread - OP is 20, two children, in a twist over this possible pregnancy, married, divorced, engaged, living off the fiancé. And she thinks I should get a life?

I know it happens; I know sometimes it works out; I know sometimes it doesn't. When OP comes on strong and defensive, the answers are just as strong as defensive.

I do not want the thread to die. I want rude ignorant people like you to stop talking to me. You do not even know me and have questioned my parenting and threatened to report me... that is not right. All I did was come on here asking a simple question and now I have people threatening to turn me in because they think I am such a bad parent? If that was the case the judge would not have granted me FULL custody today with NO court hearing. He would have said no you are unfit your children can go to foster care. So there fore you have no idea what you are talking about and should not question my parenting. With that said, I hope that something is done to get all the mature people like you, removed permanently from this site. And I have found a new one that has much nicer people so I no longer need you.

You have a short memory. You posted: "i no longer need this thread unless there are still a few people out there that want to see what happens. if not, then how do i close the thread?"

Your attitude is one of my concerns when it comes to your parenting skills - you post just like a 20 year old. Oh, wait. You are a 20 year old.

And please - again - don't attempt to dictate who can answer your questions.

And good luck on the other site.
