Are you Pregnant?

emmysmum by emmysmum Young Parent(December 2006) (rank 20th)
Hi I may be getting ahead of myself but over the last 2 weeks I have been feeling weird have been having back aches and a sore stomach, this morning I woke feeling a tad sick, I don't want to get ahead of myself but did others feel like this
and what was the out come its hard to know when my last period was as mine is all over the place. Thanks


So your periods are all over the place, your starting to get a sore back and a sore stomach.

You wake up and your feeling sick! You immediately start to panic and think "oh no i'm pregnant what's the hubby gonna say?"

Don't get to far ahead of yourself, for a starter your periods are irregular, so for all we know, you just could be starting to get them.

Just do a couple of things first to see if you react in a funny way to them, then go and buy a home pregnancy test!

First of all make yourself a cup of coffee. Sit it in front of you once made- Can you stand the smell? If you can stand the smell, try tasting it, can you stand the taste.

Sometimes smelling things is different to tasting them, as our body reacts differently.

Secondly, gently touch breasts. IF they are sore, this is a sign that you may be pregnant, but it is also a sign that you are close to menstrual period.

Thirdly. Have you been urinating more than normal? This is another sign of pregnancy, but is also a sign of a urinary tract infection!

Now it's time to go and buy that dreaded home pregnancy test! However, I would opt for buying 2 different brands, one for 5 days before due date of periods and one for after period!

Time to take that test....and that is the big question.... ARE YOU PREGNANT?

def agree
def agree, i think also if you listen to your self you know if you are or not, i find that your breast feel warm and alot of milky discharge and blue veins around the aroleas and nipples sensitive.. one biggy for me to know for sure is when the lips of your vig are blue instead of pink

Well i hope you find out what is wrong with you soon! It's hard waiting for the time of month when you are sexually active and get your periods all over the place! Have you considered taking a contraceptive pill to regulate your periods? It works wonders for me, and periods seem alot less painful too!
