Hi All!!! Here is my issue: I'm married for over a year now. I'm not on any form of BC, but we do us condoms. The last time that we did the withdrawal method was when we were on a cruise July 11-18, July 17th is when we did that method. I remember cause we ran out of condoms and the store was closed.
but anyways... I did not have my period in July. Here are my symptoms you tell me if you think I'm pregnant:
Cramping (Like menstrual cramps) off and on all day
Breast tenderness
fatique
frequent urintation
gas
headaches (sometimes)
Missed period July
Light headness (sometimes)
But I have no morning sickness, I called the advice nurse to see what they would say, she told me to wait till next Friday to take a test... Should I do it sooner?
Please help!! I'm really nervous we were wanting to wait till I got a steady job. But I will be happy no matter what.
I don't think it is too ealry to take a pregnancy test. You are about 36 days into your cycle, right? That would make you about 5 weeks along, 3 weeks gestational (I think that is the right word). If you get a negative, and still don't get a period, you could test again. .

You could be pregnant. The Withdrawal method(Coitus interruptus, pulling out) is only 79% effective. Even when the penis is withdrawn before ejaculation, pre-ejaculate often contains sperm so do not rely on this form of birth control. Even I have gotten pregnant with this method with my first child. I learned fast.
I agree with happygrl. I also 5 weeks with the exact same symptoms. I did 2 hpts to make sure. I thought the first one might be wrong. I think only 50% of women actually have morning sickness so don't let fool you. Try one of the hpt that you do up to 5 days before you should start to period. They are probably a little more sensitive. Good luck!
Hi.. Ive been through this already... the main symptoms that helped me figure out if i was is that i was sensitive to smells like perfume and just sillyy things like that...
I felt sick everyday like throwing up and just smelling foods or perfumes i felt sick...
I found out i was 6weeks pregnant by that time...
Hopefully this helps out alittle.
The symptoms were what i had... Good luck just remember to always have someone there to support you if you are...
I to am having same syptoms, I went to dr yesterday for blood test - I am only 11dpo and have not gotten af yet. My breasts are swollen and I am having nausea off and on I am tired and VERY MOODY. I took my first round of clomid, and got an hcg shot to induce o does that usually lengthen your cycle. I have felt pregnant since o but all tests show negative. What shoud I do?
