Help please?

[PixieKitty]

Ok guys, I don't know if i'm pregnant, but i'd really like some help tryna find out if I am... I figure if I am, it'll only be 3 weeks! But i've been having some symptoms, I recently switched contraception and there's a chance I could've got pregnant then... we didn't use condoms (stupid I know, but I thought we'd be ok)

The symptoms i'm having are:

Nausea/vommiting in the morning/early afternoon, slight headache constantly, exhaustion, gas, urinating alot more, sensitivity to certain smells... today I found out bacon knocks me sick, the smell of meat cooking too, and i've noticed a strong metallic taste, although it's a bit less aparent now... I may've just gotten used to it =/

What're the chances i'm not pregnant?
I'm tryna figure out if it could be something else... but there's so many signs pointing towards pregnancy that I can't stop thinking about it =/

All help will be muchly appreciated...
xox

Sounds like pregnancy symptoms lovely.

Please test.

Good luck x

I'm so scared of taking a test... it's so confusing, i'm scared of being pregnant but i'm also scared i'm not, in the past few days i've got used to the idea, i've even been talking to my belly... that sounds stupid, I know, but i've always wanted to be a mum, granted not this early... =/

 

[Rumpskin]

Oh darling, perhaps you could test with your partner or a good friend. This should help a little if you are not feeling brave.

How old are you?

Ahhh I just turned 16... three people have offered to go with me, one of which is the dad... but i'm worried if it's negative, I won't be able to hide my reaction
I know i'll be gutted, but if they see me react like that they'll think i'm trying... i'm not, but now the idea's there, it's made me so happy just thinking about it! I know it'd be hard, I have no GCSE's or job... but i'd love the kid so much, even now, I don't know if it's there but i'm putting it first, i've cut down smoking as much as I can without killing people, quit alcohol all together... never have been much of a drinker though :]

If you are not brave enough to test lovely, I would go to your doctors asap just to confirm it either way. This will give you a peace of mind. I wouldnt worry about how people view you once you get your answer. That is not important. What is important is that you find out one way or another.

What does the dad think of your dillema? Will he be happy to support you if you are pregnant?

I may be wrong and I am not a doctor but it does sound like you are pregnant just by your symptoms alone.

It sounds like you are being very sensible in cutting down smoking, etc and preparing yourself for the possibility of being a mother.

Please try and muster up the courage and go to the doctors. Believe me, you will feel so much better for doing so.

Between you and me (and I am 20 years older than you), I was exactly the same as you. I was 4 days late and could not go and buy a pregnancy test as I was too scared. I was going to ask my sister to do it! In the end, I was making myself so ill, I went to the doctors and got tested.

Ahhh the dad's lovely :] I gave him the option of walking out but he's gonna stick by me... he's 22 and in the circle of friends i'm in... if it wasn't for my age, there'd be no problem

I'm gonna try getting a test soon... I wanna wait a lil while, just to make sure I don't get a false negative or something, that happened to my friend Cris... it's so unbelievable that I might have a lil baby in me... my lil baby! I've got this weird heavy dull feeling in my stomache, it's weird... I feel stupid saying that, just incase i'm not and it's all in my head... but it's true... I can't say that to the people i've told, incase i'm not and I end up looking like a complete idiot =/.

Blehh i'm so so tired, I only woke up 5 hours ago after sleeping for 15 hours and i've just been sat down all day.

When I was 16 my boyfriend was 22. We're still together now and we're having a baby.

Hope you get the result you want!

Hi PixieKitty, I'm new here but I just wanted to wish you luck.. I'm 19 & pregnant with my second baby. Neither of my babies were planned (but loved & wanted nonetheless!) & I got pregnant with my first at 17. Just know that if you are pregnant, there are lots of girls on here who have been through it all before & we're here for you.

 

[Rumpskin]

Hey Pixie

The dad sounds like a good bloke which is reassuring for you if it turns out you are going to be a mum.

That is great that you are going to get a test. When do you think you will test? Let us know how you get on.

It sounds like you are really quite excited by the prospect of becoming a mother.

 

[nikky0907]

You should take the test because the symptoms are very clear...

I was so scared to take the test when I suspected.I came on here and I laught today when I look at my first topic.I've grown to love this baby more than I tought I ever could....

You sound responsible to me and I'm sure that you will be fine even if you are pregnant.People have had babies even younger.
Good luck and update us!

 

[PixieKitty]

Ahhh he's a wonderful guy :]
I was so scared of telling him though, as only weeks before he made a comment about a DIY abortion involving a drill and an icecream scoup =/ luckily he was just joking with the lads

I think I might go for a test on saturday... then again the week after, just to make sure, it's still really early

Y'know, just being in this forum makes me feel better... there's so few people I can talk to about this, mum knows I might be but she's not really good to talk to about this... well actually she's just denying it I think, she refuses to talk about it and makes excuses for the symptoms, like i've got a bug... combined with a water infection and a throat infection... yet i'm not showing any other symptoms related to them =/

 

[leeanne]

I have to agree that your symptoms do sound like you may just be pregnant.

Do test so that you know either way.

Sounds like you have a good guy who will stick by you, and that is wonderful. There are many guys out there who run like mad once they find out they will be a dad.

Good luck!

sweetheart, if you're 3 weeks late, you'd be 7 weeks pregnant.

Go to the family planning clinic and have a test. You need to get things sorted if you are, like midwife bookings and so forth. You can still do your exams and stuff though, - there's ways around it, honest

 

[PixieKitty]

Ahhhh I mean, i'd only be around 3 weeks pregnant... Alot of people have said symptoms don't normally occur till later on, but whilest researching i've found many women expeirence them just days after conception

There's not many family planning places around here... only in the hospital which is awkward to get too without a car =/
But I will find one :]
Soon...

 

[Serene123]

When was your last period? If you don't mind me asking..

 

[PixieKitty]

Ahhhh around three weeks ago
Maybe a bit longer... I don'ts really keep track.

 

[Jenelle]

Maybe wait a week or so, and take a test... if you get a good one like clearblue digital, then you can usually take 4 days before your expected peiod... but if you arent sure on your dates, then thats kinda hard to do.

 

[missjess]

I would definately do a test love, even if it scares you... At least it would ease your mind. If it's positive you gotta do what feels right for you ! Hope everything will be fine

 

[Serene123]

I think you should wait a week and test
