Could I still be Pregnant?? I feel like I am - Trying to Conceive (TTC) Message Board

Hello everyone,
This is my first post..here goes.

OK, I have been pg before, it ended it termination, (which breaks my heart daily but thats another story)

me and DP are ttc and have been for 8 Months, my cycle is totally erratic so it's really hard to chart.(17-46 days but mostly when it gets in a pattern 42 days)

Now when I was pg before I tested at 6 weeks and got Bfn, I left it and tested again at 8 weeks and got a Bfp.(it was easy to wait cos I didn't want to be pg and so buried my head in the sand)

At the moment I really feel pg, I am very tired, incredibly moody, hungry ALL the time (particularly for brown rice??) My boobs are big and sore, nipples are dark and enlarged, by belly is swollen, and firm in my lower belly, AF like cramps for 3 weeks but no bleed, odd pulling sensations, my boobs and legs are veiny, my usually high sex drive has taken a total nose dive..and I just feel, well....not the same..(and we Bd'd at least once a day for the last month)

it's been 46 days since last AF and I am getting BFN, so if I am pg I would be 6.5 weeks along, do you think I could be pregnant? or is there a chance I want to be so badly that I'm getting physical symptoms?

feel like I'm going crazy! (the hormones aren't helping to not get anxious and upset!)

Hi Clairzee,

Welcome!
Hmmm...I would have to say anything is possible.. Perhaps getting a blood test by you dr. might give you some answers.
Good luck! Take care

I agree with Rachel. Go to the doc and see if they can do a blood test. Good luck to you!!

I agree as well, go to DR. Just curious, since your cycle is so varied, did the DR. suggest buying an Ovulation Kit? My cycles are 30-37 days... my DR. suggested an ovulation kit, which I did buy to use after this coming AF.. unless I am preg. but don't think so....

Good luck.....keep us poste

Hi All,

Thanks for your well wishes

I think I may hang on for just one more week, I would be 8 weeks on 28th if I am pg, so if I don't test + by then I'll go to the Doctor to see whats wrong.

Over the weekend more symptoms appeared, nausea, twiglets tasted like Ashtrays (I usually love them) couldn't be bothered with any red wine when DP was having some, (I never normally say no, I have a total passion for the stuff) and it smelled like bad breath. I didn't want to go out, I snuggled on the couch while all of our friends were at a garden party (very out of character)
I'm now at 49 days with no sign of AF (never been this late apart from when I was Pg)

Hi Purplegirl, my Dr didn't suggest an ovulation kit, but if I turn out not to be Pg, then I'll use one after next AF.

Here's to a long week of waiting!

best of luck to all of you, I'll keep you posted.
