I Really Need Some Help
Posted: 07-21-04 11:42am

Hi my name is latasha and I am 19 yrs old, I have a lot of questions about pregnancy and I need to know if I am pregnant or not. First of all, my period for the month of july only lasted 3 days, which is very unusual for me because I am usually between 5-7 days. Anyway, I am always hungry and very emotional about everything. Once my boyfriend told me that I could not pick me up one day and I went into the bathroom and cried a river. Next thing I noticed was that my breasts are very sore and I have trouble getting comfortable and I also noticed that my belly is sticking out a little further than usual. I am always craving potato chips just so I can suck the salt off of them. Am I crazy or is this the real thing. Some one please help me

You got your period this month for three days right, and this is not nromal for you.
Your sympthoms do sound as if you are but you can't be too sure. Have you decided in taking a hpt? Or maybe a blood test just so you can be sure.

Just curious have you and your partner have sexual intercourse with out using protection? Are you on birth control?

The only way to tell is to take a test. You can't diagnose yourself with symptoms, because those are also the same symptoms as a missed pregnancy (early miscarriage) and switching, starting, or stopping birth control. There is also a psychological disorder where you become convinced you're pregnant and display all the symptoms, and even start to show, but a pregnancy test will always be accurate.
