Having pregnancy symptoms but too early to test! HELP!

[ashley78016]

hello! i am new to this! My husband and I have been trying to get conceive for about 6 months now! we haven't really been together to much because he is in the military and has a crazy schedule...anyways, my last period was August 30, 2011... for the past two weeks i have had sore/tender breasts & nipples. This week I have had bad acid reflex, & about two days ago had a brownish discharge...last week i randomly had some lower abdominal pain that felt a little bit like period cramps. i noticed today that veins are showing on my breast and you can even see my veins through the areola. MY breast feel very heavy too...and another weird thing that has happened is i keep smelling the scent of hairspray in our house but none was sprayed?! that has never happened to me! i have about a week before my next period and i think it is too early to test but it is killing me!! I want my baby already! Can anyone help? are these symptoms or are they in my head?

It could be in your head, because you want it so badly, or they could be real symptoms of pregnancy. Please be aware that testing early can lead to heartache, either with bfns or chemical pregnancy. I obviously hope this is not the case, but good luck when you do test, do you know how many dpo you are?

 

[ashley78016]

yea i know, that is what i am afraid of...i am 10 days dpo i believe.

Well, it's not EARLY early, iyswim, And don't get me wrong, I am a terrible one for early testing. And not that I would ever try and influence anyone, but I did get both my BFPs at 10dpo....

BADspu. Sorry. good luck.

 

[ashley78016]

well thank you i will probably get a test tomorrow because i am so anxious!

I was like you, had all the classic symptoms and felt very different during one cycle, then tested early on that occasion and was negative,then tested again because I thought 'oh I just tested too early, I'll test again' it got me really confused and so annoyed that I had spent the money on two tests.

Some people may disagree but no matter how desperate or excited you are, I highly reccommend that you wait (until the very least) when your period is overdue by a day or two. That way you just know that the result should be as accurate as possible and you don't spend another few days thinking it could be a false negative! Try to occupy yourself and keep busy with other things and as soon as you know 'hey my period is definitely late now!' then test. Period symptoms can be so similar to pregnancy symptoms that it can confuse women. Just be patient and you will get your result.

Good luck and fingers crossed for you xx

Totally agree, I just never follow through!

GL!! I have gotten positive tests on 11dpo, I have also gotten negative, when I was in fact pregnant. I would wait maybe 2 days, or if you cant take a test, but dont be too discouraged if it is negative. GL!! and KUP!!
