Update on my process of TTC!!!! Please read and help me!?

Question

Hello All,

Well I had a period on 7/14/2008 (which was 3 days late) and it wasn't normal. For the first couple of days it was really light and I had spotting for about 3 days on and off. My fiancee and I had s*x and he ejaculated in me right before my period came on. Also since then that has happened 3 more times on my most fertile days. Could I be pregnant? If so could I be having symptoms already? I am very nauseous, vomiting, crampy, bloated, extremely tired, everything makes me sick, picky about what I eat, etc. Also I have noticed that some days my b***s are ultra sensitive and the veins are bulging a lot more than normal. I am so frustrated because I keep getting so excited and then I get that BFN. I will continue to monitor my symptoms and if they continue I will go to the doctor. However, to keep me from going crazy I would like to know if anyone ever experienced this and if so what happened. HELP!!!! I know this is long, sorry. Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

Hi to you! I will tell you from my own experience and many days and nights of tears and false hopes, DO NOT go by your symptoms. The ONLY way to tell is with a pregnancy test. I did exactly what you are doing for a year....all it got me was stressed, disappointed, emotionally exhausted, mad etc etc. It is so easy to fake yourself out. I had myself SO fooled that I even puked once. (probably just a bug). I hope that you are, but don't do this to yourself. Diagnosing every "symptom" is a dangerous emotional game. Take it from me, I have cried on to many tears. It is better to just be suprised!

If your last period was on the 14 then I would think that it would be too early to show signs but I am not sure. I have heard some of my friends who have been pregnant before say that they had signs shortly after having s*x but before a test would show then being prengnat.

I think if you know you were fertile that yes you can be prengant and maybe be showing signs already. :)Test in a week and see what it says then it still might be too early. Good luck.

It's pretty much impossible for you to be pregnant already if you only got your period on the 14th.  However, if your cycle is 28 days, you're just now entering your fertile window.  Have s*x every other day and wait until the 14th of Aug to start worrying.  Even if your ovulation was really early, the chances of implantation are exceptionally slim - and the hormones don't start until implantation occurs.  Without the hormones, you won't have true symptoms.

It's likely that you're just overly stressed about it and your desire to get pregnant is causing you to experience false symptoms.  That's pretty common and it doesn't mean you're crazy!  But you need to RELAX and wait until next month to start worrying.  The more stressed you get, the less likely you are to conceive!

Answer 4

If you had your period on 7/14/2008 - which im assuming is the START of your period, and i am going to estimate it lasted 4 days - then today would only be the 12th day in your cycle - which means as far as i know you may not have even had your fertile days yet.  Most women are fertile between cd12-cd17.  And there is a real slim chance of conceiving before your period, like next to nothing - the body has already realized that the egg is not fertilized and is getting ready to rid the body for the next cycle!  If you really think your pregnant then go get a blood test!  But you can also trick your body into having prego symptoms - and thats when you get dissapt.!
