Wait until you miss your period and take a test. It is too early for any of those aversion symptoms just yet.

If these symptoms are pregnancy related, you would have positive pregnancy tests. It is TOO early in a pregnancy to have aversions to food.

Pregnancy symptoms are caused by pregnancy hormones. You don't have enough pregnancy hormones built up until about the time you are due for and/or have missed your period. This is the same time that pregnancy tests will turn positive.

If you were pregnant, you'd have only gotten pregnant a week ago or less. It takes 10-14 days before there is enough hormone built up in your system for a pregnancy test to be positive and usually longer for the morning sickness (FOOD AVERSIONS) to kick in.

The same advice applies: Wait for your period to show. If it does not, take a pregnancy test. If it does, try again next month.

your not even late though, it would be too early to have symptoms. some women, when they think their pregnant give themselves pregnancy symptoms. your body may be giving you these symptoms and making you feel these things too, but its too early to have them yet.. also when someone else tells you how they felt when they were pregnant, your mind subconsciously looks for those same things to make you think it even more. take the advice ingi gave you, and wait till you miss a period and test. also, i dont mean to be rude, but could you type a little more legibly? i had a hard time trying to make out some of the things you were saying.

She is British, Krystine. She types like she speaks. Read it with an accent. Wink

It wasn't meant to be rude. My point was, that you type how I hear British accents. I apologize if that offended you. All the Brits I've known speak with shortened clipped words - 'ave' for instance instead of Have. Or 'cos' instead of Because.

..i didnt know you were british, so im sorry. but even if you werent british, alot more people would appreciate it if it was legible instead of slang, your question gets answered more frequently, more people can understand instead of guess what your saying...but im sorry. i understand your british so sorry if it offended you. it wasnt meant to be rude.

Not that fast, even in twin pregnancies. Symptoms are not indicative of pregnancy as they could mean so many other things. It is not reliable. Pregnancy tests are reliable.

dont stress yourself out about it, stress is one of the causes as to why it takes some couples a while to concieve. they say its takes an average of a year to concieve. but stress makes it harder to concieve. your always thinking i need to be pregnant, everyone else is, why arent i and it eats away at you. just be positive, and let nature take its course

I've always heard that if you have a daily habit, then all of a sudden you can't stand it, you're pregnant. My friend smoked (I know bad) and then she started getting queasy when she'd have one. Turns out she was pregnant (baby's fine now, she's 14 months). Also I've heard if you like the smell of brewing coffee and all of a sudden it makes you sick, you're pregnant... Good Luck!

Yes, I was engaged to Brit once. His sister changed her accent so she it wouldn't be so obvious where she was from. He, however, spoke clipped - that was some time ago, I'm sure he has Americanized his speech since then.

Ingi gave you a great explanation of why these symptoms are too early to be pregnancy ones!
I think that if you feel you are having pregnancy symptoms then a test should come up (although it's easy to read more into things when you're TTCing). My senseof smell did increase as you said in the OP but not until I'd had a positive pregnancy test - if you have enough hormones to create symptoms you have enough to get a bfp!
