Default Pregnancy symptoms, plese help

ok.

I've gained weight.
My breast were sore and tender
I have a big appetite
I am very tired (I sleep like crazy)
I am spotting one week prior to my period.

I think I'm not pregnant because:

I haven't missed my period (it's in one week)
I don't feel nauseas
I dn't have any cravings.


My symptoms could be due to my bc pills and tiring semester at school.

Tomorrow evening I've set a doctor's appointment. But I still have to make it through this night. I've read some info on different sites, but it's all hear or say.

Still: what were your symptoms when you got pregnant?

DA, right now I'm in my happy place and I AM NOT PREGNANT!!!

Just concerned. That's all. It's a possibility I'm not even thinking about. .

I got pregnant with my first after having a d and c. I had the sore breasts, nausia, missed period and feeling tired. I got pregnant with my second one I was on the birth control pill. I didn't get the symtoms like I did with my first one until I stopped the pill (immediately after I found out i was pregnant).

Happy to hear that you're not pregnant since you don't want to be at this time.

Star, right now, I'm really concerned.

On one hand I did gain weight and I do have sore tender breasts. One the other hand, they're enlarged. But only for a couple of days.

Then: spotting in the third week (as I've measured it).

Then: fatigue. But that's in the second month.

As a rational person, I put all my money on the hormonal imbalance due to the bc pill.

As an irrational woman, I keep seeing signs everywhere. Like Merika becoming a grandma, my ex reminding me how I said I wanted kids during the next two years, etc. LOOL!!!


I'm very much confused. It's too late now to buy a test since all pharmacies are closed. I just don't know... I don't feel pregnant at all.

is there a birth control clinic you can go to to find out? I know the pregnancy tests that I took (that were bought at drug stores) weren't accurate at all but this is going back 13 years.

I would think that it's only the bc pill doing this to you. The pill can do wacky things to your system until your body gets used to it.

It's the forth month since I've used them. Never had any spotting with them during the first three.

When I was on Minesse it was like I had my period two weeks out of four, that's why I've changed them. And, I got really depressed during the first month of Minesse. That was weird. But... they made me loose weight .

Now I'm fat and I'm spotting too. Great choices I make!

according to what i learned in health classes, home pregnancy tests are more then 95% accurate so maybe try one.

Thank you very much for your support, DA. I really wasn't expecting it...


Star, it's soo important what you've just done.


I talked to my bf and he made me feel ... more secure. I'm not alone in this one, baby or not baby. Keeps joking around "now that we have a baby" stuff.


I tend to stress out alone and solve everything by myself. Bad habit that drives me crazy. I'm kinda lonely around here... so you guys are ever more precious to me.

Thank you.

Diana

P.S. Promise to keep you posted about tomorrow's meeting.

I know that when a woman complains of sore breasts due to pregnancy, I offer to massage them.

I hear that female coworkers just love to hear that. If they say "no" they really mean "ask me 20-30 more times and cop a few cheap feels."
