I Feel Like My Stomach Is Sticking Out
Posted: 03-26-04 10:58am

As far as I know I am not pregnant, but I feel like my stomach is sticking out? Like where my belly button is and 3 inches below. I might be dreaming, or paranoid. But my periods are irregular and come at different times and my mother had her period for 4 months when she was pregnant with 2 of her kids. We use condoms, but I still freak out. Thanks for listening. Any help would by nice.

Do a Hpt!!
Posted: 03-27-04 06:24am

Hi. It is posible that you are pg. The womb dosnt rise above the pubic bone until the 12th to 3th week of pregnancy. Are you over weight? The reason I ask is if you are of an average build you can lay flat on your back and suck your stomach in .The womb will stay protuding from above the pubic bone . It feels like a small hard ball, well the top of one .I have had two children and was able to feel my expanding womb before I got a positive hpt result!!! All this messing about aside its important that you find out soon so you and your baby recieve good medical care Smile the best way is by blood test as you can get false negative results
let us know how you go

When you say above the pubic bone, do you mean right above the pubic hairline? I could afford to lose 10-15 pounds, although my husband doesn't think so. It seems like it is from my belly button to 4 inches down where it stays up, so I guess I am okay? Please reply back, you are a great help!

Oh yeah, another thing: I feel like I can sleep so much! I slept 14 hours last nite? I normally get about 6-7 when I need to, and when I don't I can keep sleeping? Does that seem abnormal, or am I making up for the other days. I used to sleep in, but 10 hrs, not like 14? Doesn't that seem crazy?

Being Very Tired Is a Normal Sign of Pregnancy

Although you could just need more sleep or be a little run down and anxious over all this. I really suggest you get a test or have your blood taken for a test which is much more accurate! How old are you? Cant you talk to your mum about all this seen as how she has been here herself??
Take care and get tested

Thanks for replying! Well, I am 20 years old and I am a newlywed. One time when I took a test a while ago my husband wasn't happy about it because they are so expensive! Well, I might wait a little longer or might get a pregnancy test- I read that someone found one at the dollar store?I think I am just paranoid. Catalina

The results are in! Negative! Only $1 at the dollar store! Yeah! My husband just gets nervous about the pregnancy tests because one time he found one and I didn't come home to real late and he was really worried. He also knows that I just am a paranoid person, and my period is just irregular. We are not trying to have a kid; we want to wait about 6 years. Okay, thanks for helping! I guess I am just getting fat and need to go work out more!
