Q: Bad Headaches... Pregnant?

Im sexually active, and I dont chart when I ovulate. But an estimate is that I ovulated around may 28-31 and I would be due for af on the 13th of june. Ive had a 4 day headache and it wont go away. I also feel sick after I eat and ive noticed some strange coloring on my breasts...
Im not sure if this means I could be prenant???
The headaches are the most common sign. And I am not stressed or depressed for me to get these headaches.

Help!?

Hi i've never really heard of headaches being part of pregnancy symptoms but I may be wrong. Also its a bit too early for you to be feeling sick, that usually happens 6 weeks plus. I recommend you take a test if your period becomes late.

I heard that headaches happen early because your body has a big change in hormones because of pregnancy. Am I wrong??

Headaches are a pregnancy symptom, &you could be having headaches this early... But not feeling sick, &.I'm not sure your breasts would be changing yet, either. If you were to become pregnant- the egg may not even be implated. Meaning you aren't even considered technically pregnant yet. Wait until the day you're supposed to start your period &test that day if you haven't started.

I had major headaches and the reason I had them was becuase the muscles in my body are changing from being pregnant and they've tightened up my neck - but i'm going to physio and all is getting better. The egg implants 7-10 days (average) after fertilisation, therefore it may have implanted by now but I honestly dont know if you would have symptoms by now. My boobs were aching 2 days after implantation, I charted as well! Hope that helps!

That explains alot for me as I got migraines while pregnant but never really related the two together

You had migraines?

Do you recall if they started really early?

I've had bad headaches in my pregnancy. Actually I had some symptoms before I found out I was pregnant and sore breasts 2 weeks before my expected period. So I guess everybody's different.

I didn't start getting headaches until I was in my second trimester & I never used to get them pre-pregnancy

in my first trimester I had breast tenderness and I felt sick, but that didn't start until I was 6 weeks.
