how early would you know pregnancy ?
Posted: 06-28-08 18:03pm

HI i was wondering how early you may begin receving pregnancy sighngs. like headaches, tiredness, back aches.
because i think i may possibly be pregnant, but I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet or it hasn't been my time of the month so i don't know if i've missed it or not?

If you are having symptoms, you have enough HCG in your system to receive a positive result on a test. If it's negative you aren't pregnant. It's very common to "feel" pregnant when you suspect you could be, and in fact not actually be pregnant. Then again, you very well could be.

I found out I was pregnant 5 days before my period was due. The only symptoms I had I got the day after I found out. I got headaches every day, my boobs ache on the sides, and I have to pee all the time.

I didn't even know i was pregnant until I was 7 weeks along and other then an aversion to alcohol and period like cramps i didn't feel different at all.

I think like The Mrs said if your thinking you might be pregnant you totally overanalyze the symtpoms. If these symptoms are caused by pregnancy a test will be positive

Yes thats very ture, but also we didn't use protection, he "pulled out".
I don't know how effective that is, but just adds to my worrys.

Well take a test then. If your symptoms are because of pregnancy you will test positive and if not don't let whatever weird symptoms your having worry you until you miss a period

pulling out is definitely not very effective..if you arent good with using condoms I would suggest you look into birth control pills if you aren't looking to get pregnant..bc honestly..the "pull out method" is not a great method and its probably just a matter of time before you do actually end up pregnant
