Sound like I'm pregnant? & if I am how do I tell him?

[adorablemisfortune]

I posted before but, I didn't get enough replies. I'm hoping someone else can help me. In October, I was supposed to start on the 5th but, I started on the 15th. And, when it came to November, I started cramping around the time for my period which would have been the 15th. But, the only thing I got was a little spotting. It was pinkish brown. Almost stringy. I took two hpt's and they were both negative. My cousin brought me a pregnancy test from the hospital and it was negative too. It's December now, and I never got a full period from the month before. Just the spotting. I've had some cramping. And, I'm still getting a white discharge like in November. It doesn't really smell bad, it's just a mild smell. Looks kinda creamy. My breasts are sore. Mostly my nipples. The outline of my nipples have a dark circle. Or so it looks like it to me when I looked at before getting in the shower. I also have bumps on them too. Should I take another pregnancy test? Or does it sound like pregnancy? And, if I am pregnant... How should I tell my finace'? He's not ready for a kid. He wants one, but, he wants to wait a while longer. We use the pull out method. We know you can never trust the pull out method. We try to becareful, but, I know it's still a chance I can get pregnant. Any help??

[adorablemisfortune]

ugh.. this morning I woke up and my mom told me my grandad was in the hospital. so my day didn't start off good. anyways.. I'm a lot better now.  I know if he dies today, he'll be in a better place and won't be sick anymore. So.. I got up a few mins ago from watching tv and I felt sick. It's like you haven't eaten in a long time or something. I went into the kitchen and got some orange juice. After drinking a little bit of it, I feel worse. It's like it's making me wanna throw up. And, lastnight.. Someone was eating a baked potato and the smell of sour cream made me feel sick.

A lot of foods I love seem to be making me icky lately. Certain smells make me wanna throw up or cover my nose.




So seriously, if I'm not pregnant then I'm wayyyyyyyy confused about why I'm having these symptoms.

[adorablemisfortune]

well, I told my fiance' that I needed a hpt. He flipped out. But, then he calmed down and said we'll get one. If I don't get start my period by the 15th then were getting one this weekend. Sounds like it's soo far away but, he's away working right now, he wants to be with me when I take it. Which is understandable.



Ohhh, for any of you who've been pregnant... Did you ever hurt around your belly button?
Every now and then I'll feel a pain there.

Oh another thing, when I was between 4-6 weeks I also couldn't sleep on my stomach. I noticed it was feeling harder and it just bothered me to lay on it. Sounds like you are!!! :)

[adawning4]

You definetley sound pregnant to me I would take the first response and take it first thing in the morning dont drink to much before bed and try it in the morning before you do any thing else. You def. sound like your expecting. If your more comfortable take him out and tell him Hey I love you Blah Blah Blah but We may be having  a baby.......... Good Luck To You

[adorablemisfortune]

Hmmm.. maybe I am pregnant and don't even know it? lastnight, when I tried laying on my stomach it hurt. I sleep on my side, but I tried to sleep on my stomach, I just couldn't do it. Sometimes, my stomach feel like I pulled something.. It feels sore alot.

I just have to say, if I'm not pregnant then, wtf? lol.

[Gina209]

It sounds like you definitely could be pregnant. And never trust the HPT-I got a negative result this past September and than I took another one in October and it was positive. Come to find out I was pregnant Sept 5th! So I was preggers when I took the first test and it came out negative, sometimes your hormones aren't strong enough to show up on the test, try taking it first thing when you wake up, thats when your hormones are the strongest. But your symptoms sound like mine did, urinating all the time, I broke out on my forehead (and I rarely get pimples) I was always feeling round and bloated, headaches, feeling sick to my stomach, completely dizzy and tired all the time. My breasts didnt get tender until I was around 8 weeks but I still had all the other symptoms. So you could be preggers, I would wait a couple days and take a HPT in the morning, don't drink anything just take it. If it still comes out negative and you are still feeling pregnant go get your blood done just to make sure. Good Luck, keep us posted!

[adorablemisfortune]

thanks for all of your help. I'm glad people still care to stop and help.

my face is breaking out bad. It usually does before my period but, these bumps are actually big. Kinda gross. I do feel bloated. I've lived with my fiance' for almost two years now. But, I know having time together after your married without kids would be nice. I'm just so nervous to know if I'm pregnant or not. Every now and then when I stand up from laying down or sitting in my recliner, I get kinda dizzy for a second. Could dizzy be a symptom? A long time ago when I made poor judgment, before meeting my wonderful fiance' I was getting dizzy all the time and they thought maybe I was pregnant or that I had diabetes. I had neither. But, what do you think? Is it a possible sign too?

I forgot to mention something about your fiancé. I obviously don't know your situation but I want to tell you that he may be shocked and upset at first, or he may not. A LOT of men kind of get this ego boost when they find out they impregnated a woman. It is empowering to them. So he may not react the way you think. Anthropology 101!

My sis has a husband who is just mean. She just had her third child and was terrified to tell him when she was first pregnant. He ended up being such a proud daddy. Just because he may be upset at first doesn't mean he'll be upset forever.

I got pregnant before I got married. It makes marriage a LOT harder because you're never actually married without children. And you'll never have that couple time until after the babies leave the nest, but you'll never regret having your kids, even if it wasn't in your plans.

And it most likely will never happen according to your plans. Just be blessed that can even have children at this point. So many sad stories on here recently. Congratulations!!!

Sounds like pregnancy symptoms, especially the part about your breasts. When you become pregnant, a surge of progesterone and other hormones goes throughout your body. Sometimes you have larger surges than others (resulting in sore breasts at some times and then nothing a little while later). Your breasts begin preparing for baby long before you find out you're pregnant. Nipples darken and goosebump-like bumps appear. Your breasts also become fuller.

Some other symptoms are tighter pants (AKA bloating), fatigue, nausea (though not usually until a little later), more vaginal discharge, headaches and others. The list is endless! I hope you can test again soon! Buy a two pack, just in case. ;)

Yeah, I had a similar experience with the cramping and discharge, expecing my period, but it never came. So monday, test ASAP. or, you can just go to the dollar store, they're only a buck there. Anyways, good luck. Let us know what happens.

[adorablemisfortune]

Well.. I haven't tested lately. I don't get money until Monday. Ok, with the nipple thing.. They get dark then they just stop. But, a few days later they get dark again. So I don't know what's going on. I'm getting cramps like at any second I could start my period. But, still as I said above.. nothings happening. I have a lot of discharge though. Have any of you been pregnant before or experienced something like this to make you feel like you were pregnant?

[Praying4MiniMe]

anything new adorablemisfortune???  Did you test today???

[irrelevance]

Okay from everything I know, it definitely sounds like you are to me.. But that's just an opinion.. Especially from the nipple changes which aren't a typical pms symptom.. I would test again. And if you get another frustrating negative and are still confused, just go to the Dr. and get a blood test done and know for sure. I hope everything works out for you. Now on the other hand, if you are.. There really is no right or wrong way to tell your fiance.. He'll just have to accept it if you really are, and i'm very sure he'll come around. if he's not ready it may be a little hard at first.. but he'll grow to love the idea i'm sure, since he wants one anyway.. sometimes things don't happen right on cue, sometimes it just happens when you don't expect it. but if you really are pregnant, then you'll both get used to the idea eventually. Good luck. I'd say test as soon as you can, keep us updated.

[Praying4MiniMe]

when was the last time you took a test?

[adorablemisfortune]

anyone else think I'm prego?
i'm getting cramps like PMS now. But, nothings happening.

[diela]

i am hoping to be preggo too...! been trying for 2 months. last month, i swear i was pregnant, even the test came out faint positive, then 2 days later my period.. dang..!

[Praying4MiniMe]

It sounds like symptoms to me. Why don't you get a blood test from the doctor. That way you will know for sure. I'm kinda in the same boat as you are. Hoping to be preggo. :)
