Bump

Question

There is most definetly a bump between my hips that wasn't there before (if im preg, i'm almost 8 weeks)... but i'm so scared that when i take a pregnancy test its gonna be negative... not only will i not have a baby, but there is something weird goin on with my body.. I know about the whole fake pregnancy thing, but you have to FORCE yourself to believe your pregnant, and i'm not doing that at all... I've convinced myself that i'm not... but then my period didnt come this month and last months was spotting and old blood and my belly feels... different i guess... Like fuller somehow, down between my hips... so i'm just scared that something else is going on with my body...

It's not a problem. Trust me, that's mild compared to some messages I get sent. :)

I would definitely say that you need to see a doctor ASAP. Good luck and keep me updated on what happens.

I'm taking a tes first thing in the morning. Yes, I know the boy, he and I were together for 13 months... But I never meant for us to have sex, he broke up with me a week after (different reasons) and he knows that I could be pregnant. I'll put the baby up for adoption... It would deserve the best life I could give it. 
I'm sorry about my last post. I didn't mean to lose my temper like I did :/

I never did say it was in your head, just pointing out that it is possible. 

But pregnancy is honestly only one of your concerns right now. Do you know the boy you slept with, do you know his status? Is he clean? Do you still talk to him, does he know you could be pregnant? Do you intend to raise and keep this child if you ARE pregnant? There is a lot you actually have to consider, but you HAVE to test ASAP. Speculation and "guessing" is worthless and a waste of time.

I dont want to be pregnant, i'm now out of high school yet (i know this is for 18-34 but you seem to know a little bit more than the girls my age) but i know about the fake pregnancy thing and i've been keeping a very open mind about it. I look through the baby bump gallery and there are some pitctures there that look the way my belly does. I've been sick to my stomach but i passed it off as a stomach flu at first but its gone on longer than any regular stomach flu. My breasts are extremely tender, im dizzy and tired. its been 2 months since my last period and i had unprotected sex when i was ovulating last. so you read through that and tell me its all in my head. i'm not making myself believe at all that i'm pregnant, i'm trying to keep my mind off of it, and i have, but its scary when since im not even 16 and i was stupid enough to let some guy take advantage of me.

If you are pregnant and only close to 8 weeks, the bump isn't not likely due to baby. At 8 weeks baby's size is around .5 inches long. Even combined with the growing uterus and everything else it's not going to cause a huge difference. 

You also don't have to force yourself to think you're pregnant either. Fear or such can also cause your body to think you are. You sound like you want to be, and subconsciously your body could recognize it. You need to test to even see if you ARE pregnant, and if not then go from there. Pregnancy isn't anything to delay, and neither is your health.
