for about 9 days i've been having weird feelings and cramping. i've felt nausea for the past 3 days. I'm beginning to worry i'm pregnant, so i've written down the symptoms and the days they occurred. it's a touch long winded, so i'll summarize for those of you who don't wanna read it all.
for two weeks i've had either sharp or dull cramping along my lower abdomen and lower back. for about 3 days i've been feeling dizzy, off balance, faint and nauseous when smelling certain things or getting hungry. I've been urinating frequently for 2 weeks, retaining water for 3 days. i've noticed nipple tenderness and breast tenderness near my armpits.. my period isn't due for another 8 - 9 days. i also had a lot of s*x from the 12th of august to the 16th.
how likely is it that i would be pregnant, and would it be possible for me to feel symptoms this early?
total list of symptoms:
august 5:
- first day of last period
august 12 - 16:
- have intercourse two times a day while visiting my boyfriend.
- miss a birth control pill (c**p!).
august 14 - 17 (day 1-3):
- notice sharp cramping when sitting down or standing up.
- feel fine otherwise.
- having discharge like that during ovulation. thick and white.
- something feels wierd and 'off' for a couple days
august 18 - 20 (day 4-6):
- still having sharp cramping. but more so it's dull aching like period cramps. constant cramps.
- beginning to wonder if it's possible i'm pregnant. i'd have to have ovulated a week early.
- notice more discharge. still thick and white.
- urinating frequently. very annoying.
- also have lower back pain. feels like it needs to crack, but i can't crack it.
- mild heartburn (not uncommon)
- go to the doctor on day 5, suggests it might be ovarian cysts. wants me to go for an ultrasound to check everything out.
- diarreah on day 19 - could be due to eating too many blueberries
august 21 (day 7):
- still feel cramping. sometimes sharp, sometimes dull. sometimes in lower back.
- feel stomach flips when i smell food or am getting hungry.
- unreasonably hungry. unless i stuff myself at a meal i'm hungry within 2 hours
- feel nauseous when hunger is coming on
- feel faint and see spots twice after walking up a hill and a flight of stairs
- lose breath easily
- retaining fluids. fingers are swollen enough to make me move rings down a finger
- still urinating frequently, but because of water retention urination is very unsatisfying
- extremely tired (but i also had 6 hours sleep)
- nose is plugged and needs to be blown multiple times a day. (uncommon for me)
- extremely windy from both ends
august 22 (day 8):
- wake up dizzy after and cramped (other days i have a couple hours of relief after waking up)
- still feeling nausea when smelling food.
- still retaining water, still urinating frequently, still unsatisfied after urinating
- extremely tired. mind is alert, but body is heavy and lazy (woke up early today too)

- extremely hungry, even when nauseous.
- still having creamy discharge
- don't feel faint during the day, but do feel off balance
- nose is still plugged, and needs to be blown multiple times
