Hi my name is Krysta and I'm 22 with a 3 year old and a 4 year old, and they are around 16-17 months apart, and I think I'm around 4 weeks pregnant, but I also think I'm anemic. Could someone help me please?

Symptoms:
*nausea
*heartburn
*headaches
*backaches
*tiredness
*vomitting
*implantation bleeding
*missed period
*dizziness
*hot flashes
*restlessness
*costipation/diarreah
*mood swings
*weird cravings
*frequent urination
*easy bruising
*hair loss/hair curliness
*facial breakout
*white/creamy discharge
*weird stomach twinges
*thirsty a lot
*really bad metal taste in mouth
*leg cramps
*no concentration
*pull out method for birth control

And that's about it. And when I was pregnant with my son I had the same symptoms down to a T. So if you can help me please I would greatly appriciate it.

This list appears copied from somewhere.

"Pull out" is not a symptom. It's a very unreliable form of birth control.

Curly hair is also not a symptom of prengancy.

If you are suffering from vomiting, dizziness, frequent urination, easy bruising - and so forth - AND a vaginal discharge you need to see a Physician.

Anyone here would just be guessing whether you are or are not pregnant.

Have you tried a HPT? I am told that they can be accurate when you are less than a week "late."

I would say that this is not real, sorry but the odds of someone having all of those in 4 weeks, when they did not have them before is rare.

It is also rare to have them during the first four months.

But there is no exact sign, they can be that or a dozen other things, you have to wait till you miss a period and do a pregnancy test.

Your list means nothing.

Ok first of all I have been having these syymptoms for about 2 weeks and I have taken pregnancy tests and they are negative and I have missed my period

So wait a little while and take another HPT.

Did you copy those symptoms from somewhere?

No those are my actual symptoms I wrote them out like that so people could read them better and I would say people can't experience symptoms this quick but with my son I had symptoms at only 3 weeks so its possible

Oh and with both my kids my hair got curly and my hair is straight naturally and they said it was hormones

So what should I do

(1) Buy another HPT kit and use it; OR (2) see your physician.

No one here can "diagnose" your pregnancy.

Ok thank you and I will make an appointment right away. I appriciate your comments I just hope I can figure this out

Why do you think you're anemic?

If you have 2 other children you should have a pretty good idea whether you are or are not pregnant.

22 with two toddlers sounds like a lot of work - and expense. Two toddlers and an infant? Even worse.

I have always been anemic off an on all my life but it always gets worse when I'm pregnant and yes 2 toddlers is a lot of work and a lot of night shift jobs but I was a little intoxicated on a night out with my boyfriend and so was he and we had unprotected sex and so I'm very concerned because I know it will be hard work but I can do it I think. But if you've ever had a toddler you know how much work they are.

Oh, yes - plus two of them plus an infant? A LOT of work. Be grateful you have a steady boyfriend and aren't raising the children alone.

I am very grateful because he is not my children's father and he is still there being their daddy and works so hard to make sure we have everything we need.

Unfortunately, these symptoms can mean so many different things. There are so many symptoms that relate to other things its hard to really say without seeing a doctor to tell you for sure. Your best bet is to go into your doctor and tell him all of the symptoms you are having and he may have a blood test to rule out infections, cancer, diseases, etc.. A blood test will tell you a lot. That is the best advice I can give to you. Symptoms are symptoms and no body know there body better then themselves and if your concerned about this I would look into right away. Good luck.
