How Soon Can You Tell If You Are Pregnant? Posted: 10-13-03 09:41am
Hi,
I had sex about a week and a half ago
and I am supposed to start my period next
wed. I woke up this morning sick and I
have felt like I have to pee all morning
but when I go to the bathroom, I don't go.
Also, my back is hurting, like I have
cramps. I am on birth control pills but
last month I missed 2 of them, but then I
had my period. So I wasn't sure if that
could affect this month too. So I was
just wondering how soon symptoms start
showing. And also, just to know, what
happens if I do get pregnant but keep
taking my birth control pills because I
don't know if I am pregnant.
Thanks for any help!

I don't think you are having symptoms this
soon, but it could be a possibility. I
think (most likely) its just a hormonal
imbalance due to missing the pills. Most
of the time it takes at least a couple of
weeks, but to be on the safe side wait
about a week and take a pregnancy test.
Let me know how it goes.
Good luck and best wishes,
jennifer

Thanks for your advice. I think I just
have baby fever and was maybe just being
hopeful that it had happened even though I
am on the pill. I will still let you
know how everything turns out though.
Thanks again!

Jennifer is right however if you continue
having back pain I would consult a doctor.
This could be a sign of a miscarriage.
Dont stress im sure your fine! Keep us

check with your doctor it could be a urine
infection if you feel that you need to pee
and cant go. good luck

sounds like a urine in
fection could be one of the possibilities.
good luck

I agree with some of the others....I think
it could be a urinary tract infection. I
have lots of problems with these! The
pain in your back could be a bit of a
kidney infection. If you have fever or
nausea, I would consult a doctor, because
you may need antibiotics. You can try an
OTC med called AZO. And drink lots of
water or cranberry juice. If that doesn't
help within a couple of days, call your
doctor and ask what they think! Good
luck!

YES...Maybe a UTI (urinary tract
infection) get checked and get on
antibiotics if it is. But antibiotics
affect your birth control pills. So if
you're not trying to get pregnant you need
to use another form of birth control.
