Could I be pregnant?

[horsewolf]

I started my period March 18 and had sex on the 26th. 2 days after I noticed EWCM or what looked like it. I ovulated March 30th and my breasts seem bigger and are very sore. I've been dizzy, feel bloated, and have felt very gaseous. I have been moody for 4 days straight and have felt like crying. I still have CM but it is more lotion like now. I dont want to assume anything but has anyone ever had these symptoms and then found out they're pregnant?

Did you find out if you're pregnant? :)

Alright I think I may be getting panicky. Like I said I took a clearblue pregnancy test and it was negative. Tonight I am experiencing a mild headache, increased nausea, cramping on and off, bloating and a feeling of bubbles in my bower abdomen as well as my stomach, and now I just realized my nipples are lactating. Sorry yall if its too much information. LOL someone tell me if I am going nuts or is this normal PMS symptoms 8 days before my period is due.

Took a clearblue pregnancy test and results were negative but Idk how accurate it is since I didnt wait a week before my period

I assume it is PMS starting earlier than usual but I do know that what I am going through is very abnormal for my body. Besides the clear slippery mucus I also feel like there are bubbles in my uterus and I feel like throwing up but cant. I am urinating a lot and it's cloudy from the mucus.discharge

Ok thank you :) I just never experience these symptoms before I start. This is a first and I am 27 years old so its just weird but maybe it is just AF.

Sorry, just read the rest of the comments. I usually get a day of very watery cervical mucus at 6-7 dpo and again the day before my period starts ( I also get spotting that day so it's a nice prediction of AF coming). I think this is because we get a 2nd estrogen surge about half way through the luteal phase and probably also because when our period is about to start the progesterone falls allowing some women to experience more cervical mucus

I always get those symptoms after ovulation. I get large, tender breasts, heartburn, bad (smelly) gas, and a day or 2 before my period I get moody. I did get all of these when I was pregnant as well, the only difference is that my period didn't come. Basically, most period symptoms are the exact same as pregnancy so there is no way to tell until your period is late and you test. Good Luck!

Oh, and yes it's possible to conceive when having sex 4 days before ovulation, but much more difficult. The best time is to start 3 days before ovulation and have sex until the day after.

I thought for sure I was pregnant this month because I had the watery discharge/lotiony white before AF, and nothing! :( Booo, Good luck!!!

Oh wow. I woke up this morning cramping and I have very watery and white discharge or cervical mucus, Im not sure which. Im leaning towards its PMS but I am not certain. Ive never had watery discharge right before my period.

I hope you get the answer you want :)

Thank you for replying :) I was at work this weekend so I didnt get a chance to read this until now. I am starting to cramp badly but my period still has not come and this is day 2 of these PMS-like cramps. Idk what it is but Id like to know soon what is causing this.

While you did have sex close to your ovulation day, you're more likely to get pregnant if you have sex during the EWCM phase, so the sperm can last longer. Most women don't actually ovulate until a few days after the ewcm. And your symptoms came a little soon after for it to be pregnancy symptoms. I would wait and see if you get a positive pregnancy test on the day your period is due! Good luck!
