symptoms
Is it normal to have pregnancy symptoms a week and a half to two weeks after having intercourse?
When i was carrying my 2nd daughter the ultrasound put me at 6wks when i knew i was 8wks(i got ovulation pain)preg. When my daughter was born(2 wks early by me,4wks by the scan)1 asked the docs how early she was and i was right only 2 wks ! Ultrasound goes by average measurments of the circumferance of the babys head. Some are larger some are smaller. They are not foolproof.From what you have said i would say its your hubbys. That said how tragic would it be if,that one mistake results in never being able to put it behind you.
GOOD LUCK.

Thank you for your comments. He is not my bf. I did not know what else to call him. I have known him for a few years, it was just a mistake. A horrible, horrible mistake. I was with my husband 9/8, 9/9 and 9/10 and him on 9/15. My husband and I dis not use protection and have not for a year and a half. I started experiencing symptoms of a bladder infection 10 days after the 15th, the 24th and 25th of August, and then 14 days after the 15th experienced nausea every day the next week. I just want to know if this is too soon to experience symptoms? I have very irregular cycles and did not have one in August. I had already made an appointment with the MD on 9/14 b/c I had not started my cycle and tested positive home PG test on 9/3. My U/S on 14th showed me at 4 1/2-5 weeks and then the U/S on 20th of September showed me at 6 weeks, which tech said 1st day of my cycle was on the 9th, which I know is not right b/c my and husband and I were together that week, so I don't know when I ovulated. I don't think this baby is the whoever's baby but it's possible. I know all I can do is wait but in the meantime I have a hard time showing happy emotions around my family.
I would think that prenatal testing would need to be done at a later time, and it doesn't seem right to put the baby and your body through all of that to figure this out.
I AM NOT ENCOURAGING DISHONESTY WHEN I ASK THIS. May I ask if the bf is a different race than your husband? I don't understand what the urgency is in determining who the father is unless you are afraid that when you give birth the child will clearly not be your husband's b/c or race, etc. The reality is that this could be either, but the odds are higher that this is your husband's baby (assuming that you two didn't use birth control when you bd twice that week). Most states to my knowledge have laws that state that if a child is born during a marriage, it is assumed that the father of the child is the husband's. The bf has a specific amount of time to disprove this. Again, I am not encouraging dishonesty, I am merely providing information that you may find worth researching.
Have you terminated your relationship with the bf? You said this only happened once, but you also called him your "bf" in the other post, which insinuates that this is (was) a RELATIONSHIP, not a one-time incident. I agree that it is good that you feel guilty, but you will need to forgive yourself and move forward. However, you should make a mental note of how you are feeling right now so that if you feel like cheating again down the line you remember how horrible you feel right now. It is never worth it. If you can't handle the committment that comes along with marriage, don't get married. If you do and realize it was a mistake, try counseling. If it still fails, you can always resort to divorce, but there is no excuse for cheating. My father cheated on my mother 22 years of their 24 year marriage. She was always miserable but didn't have the self-confidence to leave him and raise three children by herself. I can understand why she experienced the emotions that she did, but I will never understand how someone can cheat. My sisters and I still have severe emotional and trust issues because of what my father did (even though he denies cheating to this day).
PERSONAL OPINION: Maybe you should consider forgiving yourself at this point, assuming that the child is your husband's, carry the child to term, and raise it with your husband. I believe in the importance of accepting responsibility for your actions, but I also hate to see the innocent ones get hurt unnecessarily. Is it possible to tell your husband that you stepped out, it only happened once, you are so sorry, it won't happen again, etc. It sounds to me like this baby is probably your husband's ... I am not sure what I would do, and you are the only one that can decide what is right for you, but I do know that either way, I would carry the child to term and deliver. Your mistake in stepping out on your husband is NOT sufficient to terminate the pregnancy in my OPINION.
Why are you asking if you can have symptoms that quickly? Did you start the symptoms this quickly after bd with the bf? It is possible ... did you test pg when you started feeling this way, or did you wait to test? Depending on the level of your hcg at your first blood test and the subsequent blood test(s), you may be able to figure out when you conceived.
Good luck! I hope the results come out the way you want. Keep us updated on the situation.

I know you are really trying to get to the bottom of this, and I don't blame you...If I was a bettin' woman, I would say that this is your husbands. IF, you have a NORMAL 28 DAY CYCLE. If you have cycles that typically last longer than that, you would have ovulated later, and it would be your bf's. Early u/s are accurate, but your 20 wk u/s will give a more accurate account of growth and development...You won't be able to figure this out at the birth date, because it is too close together. Does bf know about your fears? Sorry to pry...
To answer your question....At 2 weeks after conception (4 weeks pg) you very well could experience fatigue, sore and heavy breasts.....Nausea typically hits about 2 weeks later than that as a result of hcg building in the body which tends to make people feel queezy and experience a loss of appetite.
I hope that I helped you...I strongly agree with one woman on your other post about discussing this privately with your doctor, and requesting that this remains very private...I'm sure he'll oblige. I can guarantee your ob/gyn has heard worse stories....

I did w/ my 2nd pg, but maybe it was just b/c I knew what being pg felt like :) Will this be your first?
