    Am I pregnant?
    Nausea, dizziness, vertigo, stomach ache, emotional/ irrational, back pain and urinating a lot could I be pregnant?
    I've got a young daughter and have miscarried twice, once with twins. This feels the same as the beginning of all those but at same time different.

    It's possible, When was your period due/when is it due? Have you tested? What activities were you involved in to present a risk?

    Are you late? If so check your body temp, if it's over 37 degrees you are pregnant.

    I was due on the 4th and normally I'm exactly 30 days apart. Have done a test came back negative but this was 1 week ago. I've been taking the pill but had anti biotics for 1 week just after my last period, is it possible they stopped it working? I heard it can.
    @chewy for the last 3 weeks I've had a slight fever at 38.5

    Very possible. And pregnancy tests are not always accurate. If I was you I would go to the docs, get a blood test and re test yourself with a pregnancy test.

    I've done more tests and they've all come back negative. I've been to doc and waiting some blood tests. Does anyone know what else it could be?

    An infection of some sort perhaps. Having a fever for 3 weeks is not normal... the slightly elevated temp could be due to pregnancy. Urine tests can sometimes take several weeks to show a positive for some women. See what your results are with the blood test.

    What? Wow, I must get pregnant allot then. Where did you get this info. If you have an infection you can have a temperature, that doesn't mean you're pregnant.

    This was very inaccurate advice.

    I think she may be referring to temps during the luteal phase. Temps will stay slightly elevated until the next period when they will drop, but if they continue longer, pregnancy may be a possibility. Of course, there are a number of reasons a temp can be up and what is slightly elevated for one woman may not be for another.
    Also, unless someone had been charting their temps, there would be no way to know if a pattern was showing that would lead to suspect this could be the cause as individuals will often have some variations.

    Thanks Doula C, I just didn't want the OP to have false hope because of a high temperature.

    Yep, exactly what I meant. Sorry if I did not explain myself well enough.

    I had the anti biotics for a chest infection but that's cleared up. I'm going to leave it another week or so, do yet another test and if its negative I'm going to demand more tests from the doctor
