I Think Im Insane, Or Not Relaxing Enough Posted: 12-26-05 22:20pm
Me and my husband are ttc, we had
intercourse on the (this was my ovulation)
22nd. I havent been feeling good at all,
I just feel like, im really tired lately,
and have been falling asleep alot (fell
asleep on christmas at 12 o'clock in the
afternoon), and been having headaches.
I went to sleep right after intercourse,
and had a pillow under my hips, because it
says that you should lay down 30 mintues -
all night. I get my period on the 5th,
and I plan on takinga test on the 6th.
But I dont know if im making these
symptoms, or they really are. Because I
think it is way to early to have them, but
I also heard you can get pregnant in 24-72
hours. Any comments on this please??
Thank you,
kelly

When you ovulate, if the egg is
fertilized, implantation will occur. If
the egg did not get fertilized it is
passed.
Implantation occurs when the egg is
fertilized. The egg then becomes known as
a blastocyst. After being fertilized the
now blastocyst releases hormones that
tells it to burrow into the lining of the
uterus. This usually occurs about eight
days after fertilization.
Once the blastocyst implants in the uteran
lining it continues to secrete hormones
that tell the body to prepare for
pregnancy. It is these hormones that
cause pregnancy symptoms, especially
morning sickness.
Each woman's reaction to the increased
level of hormones is different. Some
women may be sensitive enough to detect
the subtle changes as early as 8 - 10 days
after fertilization, soon after
implantation has occured. Other than
possibly missing a period, other women may
not even detect the symptoms/changes until
around week 6 after conception.
You would be surprised how many
pregnancies even go undetected. It is not
uncommon for a woman to be pregnant,
miscarry, and not even know it because she
thought it was just a period.
It is also not uncommon for a woman to
want to be pregnant so badly that her body
may actually start showing symptoms of
pregnancy, even though she really isn't.
The only surefire way to know is to test.
When testing do keep in mind, too, that it
is not uncommon to get several negative
results at first, even if you really are
pregnant. It all depends on how fast your
body is producing the pregnancy hormone.
I had several negative hpts until I missed
my period, even though implantation had
already occured.

Good Luck~ Posted: 12-27-05 19:46pm
Hey, I almost 6 weeks pregnante! I had
those exact same symptoms not even a full
week or so afterwards, but I didnt pay any
attention because I had just gotten
married and thought it was stress from our
wedding. On our honey moon all I wanted
to do was sleep and my husband rub my head
cuz of the headachs. When my hair and
skin started to get oily I took a test and
discovered I was pregnante!!! I was
extreamly tired..And carried constant
headachs *which I never do*!! I hope its
all worked out and I wish you the best.
*~ baby dust ~*
lemme know how it goes :)

If you talking about being b!T#hy and
wanting to strangle ur hubby I have been
there lol!!
Its normal to get mood swings with your
hormones going pyscho but take into
consideration pms does the same thing, I
get migraines 2-3 days before starting my
period as well as bloating,frequent
urination and just feel mean.....I knew I
was pregnant right away hubby and dr didnt
believe and the tests were coming back
negative even though I missed my period
cause I was on b/c pills. Sometimes
instinct is stronger by the time the test
came out positive I had already done 4-5
hpt and I was almost two months trust your
heart and relax!!!

Yeah its a little to early to have the
symptoms...But you still have that big
chance of being pregnant...I'd just wait
and take the test ...And just take things
easy until then...But best of luck ...!!
