Advice Please? Too Soon to Test? Posted: 07-24-05 05:36am
Hi everyone
how soon can I test? My lmp was around
beginning of july. I am pretty sure it
began the 1st of the month. Although not
really trying for a baby, we have been a
bit careless with contraception and we did
have unprotected sex mid july. Anyway, I
already have 2 kids so i'd be happy for
another. I must admit I have bought
several tests and so far they are all
negative. I know I am too soon to test
but can't help myself!
I have been feeling a few symptoms,
cramps, sore, tender breasts, a bit of
nausea, can't stop peeing (urine is much
stronger) raging hunger and yet the tests
are negative. Any advice please? I
really enjoy reading everyone elses posts
and see I am not the only one, analysing
every little symptom!
Thanks!!!!

It is nice to see someone else who is in
the same boat as myself. I also have 2
kids already and most definitely was not
trying for a 3rd. I have also done
several tests with a negative
answer...Very frustrating. I have not
had cramps just alot of lower abdomen pain
when I walk or put any pressure on the
area. My breasts have been growing by
leaps and bounds and the hunger is
unbelievable. I am hoping for the week
to pass by quickly so I can test again.
Email me and we'll keep eachother updated.

Actually that is what happened to me. I
just got married in dec and then in feb I
started waking up at 3 and 4 in the
morning just to pee then I started getting
more and more weird cravings. Needless to
say I was on birth control so I new there
was no way I could be pregnant so I took a
test on feb 1 and it was negative then one
week later I took another and sure enough
I was pregnant. So in my opinion you
sound like you could be pregnant!

Thanks for your replies! I am sooo hungry
today. My chest is really tender as well.
I hate the waiting.
Is it normal to have symptoms so soon do
you think ?

how long have your boobs hurt? Mine have
been sore for 4 days now and im not due
for period until august 4th ive also had
cramping I dont remember any signs with my
first baby it was 7 years ago. I always
have to pee because of my insulin so I
cant tell if I am going more than usual.
Does anyone think I could be preggo? We
are ttc by the way

Hi
my boobs have hurt for about a week but
yesterday they went from tender to
downright painful. I've never experienced
such early symptoms. Even my stomach is
bloated. It's odd. Even my dh agrees
that the boobs are heavier!
Roll on another week so I can test
properly!!

Well, I am sure i'm not pregnant.....But
am trying to talk my body into being
pregnant - if that makes any sense! I
have been longing for those words "lets
try for a baby" for the past two years and
now that those lovely words have been
muttered....I want an immediate
conception! Lol
i have had slight period type pains, but
don't feel hungry, and don't have sore
boobs. Can someone shed some light on
when your boobs start to ache and when the
hunger kicks in? Then I can talk myself
into feeling those symptoms too! Lol!!!!
I am trying to look at things from the
funny side and do realise that these
things can take time.
Any information would be great. I have
been searching the internet, but I think
personal experience from someone on here
would be better.
Thanx for your help.

With my first and second, I didn't have
sore boobs. This go around I have had
the soreness for about 1-1 1/2 weeks.
The tenderness has mostly went away and
now it is just my nipples that are really
sore....Go figure.

I have to say I feel for you all. This is
my first pregnancy and my boobs have hurt
the whole 7 1/2 months unlike my sister
whos boobs never bothered her at all
untill she started breast feeding. But
now all of a sudden her boobs have been
hurting her for about 3 weeks. She dosn't
know if she is pregnant either. She has
taken 4 preg test and all were neg but
still no period. So she is in the same
boat as you all.
