Just want to ask...

I know, I know. Take the pregnancy test, right? I can't yet, but I will, I promise.

I'm just a little nervous right now, and wanted to know if you, as pregnant ladies and those who have had children before, think this is more likely to be a positive but very early pregnancy, or if I'm more likely to just be ill.

I'm 20, but that's close enough to being a teenager in my eyes. Very young to me, anyway.

Anyway:


I am a week away from being able to use a pregnancy test, so there's nothing to know for sure, but...

I've been intimate with my boyfriend only five times, so it would be my luck if I'm pregnant already. I'm 20, and this is my first boyfriend. We have used a condom every time, however, I am not on any other sort of birth control because I am at a high risk for varicose veins and weight gain.

For two weeks now, I have been having very painful stomach cramps after eating, diarrhea daily and several times a day, frequent urination, a huge lost of libido, fatigue, bloating, a bit of weight gain even though I'm going to the bathroom all the time, and hot flashes. I have not yet had a fever.

Also, I am due for my menstrual cycle in two days, and have had no cramps, which is odd for me, though it does happen to me once in a while.

Does this sound like early pregnancy? I don't think I can use a test yet, my menstrual cycle usually begins on the 15th. I've been trying to eat very healthy the past few days and get a lot of fresh air, just in case I am.

Thanks for your help ahead of time!

If you are due your period in two days then you can test in two days.

You can test now but better to wait untill you are due af to get an accurate test result

Thanks!

Someone told me to go out and get the Early Detection brand, but it's fourteen dollars, and despite how much I want to test I'd better wait.

you could go to docs or family planning clinic? would they not test for free in confidence?

 

[rscha19]

I'm sure they would. My problem isn't the testing, it's the whole not knowing! I have a planned parenthood very close to me, but as of right now, I work full time, and always odd shifts where I work before they open and after they close. (Grumble grumble)

Hey, I think its a good idea to buy an early pregnancy test or to be extra sure go to the doctors for confirmation, also if your not pregnant they can find out whats wrong

If AF is due within a day or so, you can just get a cheap test and take it with FMU, it’s very possible to get an accurate reading now. good luck!
