Hello I am having problems with pregnancy. I don't want to be pregnant yet 3 months ago was the last time I had intercourse with my fiancˇ that was August 15 I came on my period August 22... It was normal lasted about 4 day of blood and 2 days of brownish discharge until it went away... then September 27 I came on my period normal with cramps and breast sores. But my period lasted for about 3 days bleeding and 2 almost 3 days of brownish discharge. Then not October but November 1st I came on my period again with cramps as well but this time I was nauseous and vomiting a few days. My period went away in 5 days 3 days of blood and 2 days of brownish discharge. I never thought about pregnancy until a few people joked around saying I was pregnant. I took two pregnancy tests while on my period and one 4 days after my period and all were negative. Right now I am having this tight feeling on my lower abdomen and from time to time my lower back hurts. If I was pregnant I would be 14 weeks by now but my belly isn't growing and my weight still the same I'm not as hungry as before I eat and get full really fast and also my stomach growls constantly I don't know if its all in my head and I'm having fake pregnancy symptoms?

Was the intercourse with birth control being used? Are your periods usually pretty regular? The last few have been 36 days apart. Other than a bit of nausea and vomiting, which could have been due to a stomach virus, it sounds as though things are pretty normal. Having some aches and pains now and then can be from a number of things.

While pregnancy can occur a week before a period, it is not the usual time for it.

You could always try another pregnancy test, making sure you follow the directions carefully, or see your doctor about having one done in the office.

No I don't take birth control pills we have been having intercourse for 2 years sometimes we used them some times we didn't My period is always every 30 to 38 days at times even after 40 days. I was told that I shouldn't worry about it but right now the tightness and pressure on my lower abdomen is worrying me. I even feel my nipples kind of sensitive but when I don't think about it I don't feel anything. If I was 14 weeks by now wouldn't my belly be showing. I get full too fast and I don't really want to eat. My mom says that I am very pale ever since novemeber 1st which was the first day of my period

Some women will notice a bit of rounding by 14 weeks, if not sooner, others not yet. It can depend on your build, number of pregnancies, etc. as it is very individual.

To ease your mind, try another pregnancy test or see your doctor if you have any doubt. They would also do a test in the office and possibly an ultrasound, which would let them know right then and there.

Maybe you are over-thinking it? It is very common to feel possible symptoms, or wonder if what you are feeling could be a symptom, when you are almost looking for any possible sign of pregnancy.

You could still see your doctor about the discomfort you are having if you feel it is something that needs to be checked. They would do a pregnancy test anyway as well. They can also check for other possible causes.

You could rest easy as normal dental x-rays wouldn't be a problem if you were pregnant. In fact, good dental care during pregnancy is very important.

It sounds very doubtful that you are pregnant, perhaps a infection or just various things being put together to appear what you are worried about

I don't know all Day Today my lower abdomen felt tight I did a pregnancy test this morning and it was negative as well as all the other ones :/. I am wondering what's going on right now my abdomen feels a little tight and sometimes it sounds as if my stomach growls on my lower abdomen. I am eating very little I don't want to eat and when I eat I get full really fast and also when I eat my stomach feels really heavy and when I try to use the bathroom I barely do anything. I don't know if I'm over thinking this pregnancy situation but I notice that My nipples are a little too sensitive. I made my calculation and if I was it would be 12 weeks of pregnancy with tomorrow but I'm still not showing anything I don't know what else I have to do

Perhaps you are experiencing some digestive issues? Getting full easily, stomach growling, and your abdomen feeling a little tight are not normally associated with early pregnancy. Other than concerns about the possibility of being pregnant, is there anything else stressful going on? Stress can sometimes effect your digestive system.

Since this is causing you to be concerned, I would go to the doctor's and have them check it out. If you were 12 weeks pregnant, they would easily see that on an ultrasound.

Yes the lower abdomen hurts and feels tight a lot and the pain its not like the cramping I have before my period and Yes I am stressing out a lot with work and trying to go back to school and other issues with my family and my fiancé. I want to hope that's what it is. Today I started feeling pain under my chest when I talk under my chest it starts hurting a lot. I really don't know what to do anymore Im really stressed out with this situation
