Q: Could I Be Pregnant?

Okay, so heres what happened. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex may 31st, june 2nd, and june 4th. All times of which he came inside me. Since june 5th, I feel a bit sick. I have a headache most of the day, feel nautious, and very tired. Every once in a while i'll get a bit of a sharp pain in my lower left side of my stomach. Im not sure if pregnancy symptoms can occur this soon. Can they? I havn't taken a test yet because I think its to soon to tell whether I have enough hcg levels in my body to decipher whether I am pregnant or not. What do you think? Am I pregnant? Is it all in my mind? Do I just have a slight cold? Whats the soonest pregnancy symptoms can occur? Any opinions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Pregnancy
Hi there - honestly that does sound a little bit fast for all of that to be happening - while it's completely possible you might be pregnant, if you're worried about the fact that you might be pregnant, these stresses, fears and worries can easily cause nausea, stomach cramps, headaches, etc. Just think about how you felt right before a super important hard test - nervous and worried.

Obviously you should take a pregnancy test - are you late yet?

But these symptoms might be related to worrying about being pregnant - if any situation was going to cause extreme tension and stress, the fear of being pregnant certainly would.

Let us know how it goes - most important thing I hope everything turns out the way you want it to :)

" is it all in my mind?"

could be.


"whats the soonest pregnancy symptoms can occur?"

not as soon as you say your having them. A weeks time is much to soon. Most people dont have any symptoms untill after they miss their period. Or at leas untill their 3 weeks along.


"what do you think?"

i think your just worrying. Believe me i've had pregnancy scares before and I thought I was even gaining weight and it hadnt even been 3 days! Your mind is a terrible thing sometimes. My advice would be if you dont get your next period...Take a test.

Also - stress can affect your period cycle - one time I was soooo scared I was pregnant that I completely missed my next period. Turns out it was all due to the extreme worry and stress I was going through because I thought I was pregnant.

It's amazing what stress and worry can do to the human body.

Im 2 days late. But my period has never been regular so I cant really go by that. Its not a pregnancy scare though. I want to have a baby, and want to get pregnant. So I dont how much it could be in my mind. I guess it could go either way in my mind when you think about it. Like I feel I may be pregnant because I want to be. Im so confused. When do you think I should take the test?

hi if you have had unprotected sex then there is definatley a chance of pregnancy. If you are 2 days late then you should take a test. Good luck and fingers crossed for you!
