Pregnancy signs? what do you think?

Question

i had light bleeding on the 26th of july, it lasted for about 2 days and since then my b***s have been really sore. some days more then others. they feel really heavy and hurt more on the sides more than anything, but i do get sharp pains in them every now and then. my friend bumped into my boob on acadent and i wanted to hit her it hurt so bad.

i had really bad cramps when i was bleeding those 2 days but the cramps have subsided and they dont bother me so much any more.

i have lower back problems as is so its hard to tell if it hurts because of that or not.

i ate chinese food the other day and shortly after i got heart burn, which is really strange for me. i never get heartburn, ever.

i have been really gasy for the past few days, which is also strange because i havent been eating anything to grant that kind of problem. its almost uncontrolable.

i have also been some what constipated, but i havent really gained a lot of weight. when i was bleeding i was up about 4 pounds more then i normaly weight, but that weight has gone back down, im only up about 2 pounds from my normal weight.

also my hair has been really course for about 3 days now, i have a really short hair cut and normaly i have soft hair, i have even stopped using so much shampoo because i thought that might be drying it out, but it hasnt helped any.

even tho im not much heavier my pants fit tighter in my tummy area.

im due to have my period on august 9th. all of the home tests i have taken have been negative.

what do you guys think?

Answer 1

Sounds like you may be pregnant. Wait until you miss your period to take another test. Good luck!

Answer 2

The only way to know for sure is to wait until your missed period and take a pregnancy test then.

Answer 3

You can go get a blood test or wait a few days and take another HPT. Good luck.

Answer 4

Go to the doctors and take a blood test. That's the only real way to find out.

Answer 5

I think it sounds likely that you are pregnant.  When was your last normal menstrual period?

Answer 6

I would wait until your period doesnt come. Mine is expected the 8th, with my last one being the 12th. I feel alot of the same symptoms as you. I took a test early this morning and it was negative. I'm a litlte let down, but at the same time still have hope b/c I havent got my period. Good Luck to you!

Answer 8

Answer 9

It's too early to be taking a HPT. Did you have s*x on July 26 or within a couple days before? PMS can change from month to month. Being bloated, gassy, having sore b*****s, and weight gain is all 'normal' PMS. The light bleeding you had on the 26th was probably from ovulating. Mild pain/cramping and light bleeding is what's known as mittelschmerz. It sounds as if your uterus may be tipped backward which would explain the constipation and bloating. A non-menstruating uterus weighs only 4oz while a menstruating uterus doubles in size to 8oz. That is just enough weight when sitting against the intestines to block them off, resulting in constipation, and impede the normal flow of bodily fluids, hence the bloating.
