Signs of Pregnancy?
Posted: 08-08-06 16:38pm

My neighbour molly, who i've gone to school with for years, and who is a few years older than me (seventeen), told me that she was having these symptoms two weeks or so after she was with her boyfriend. They didn't have intercourse because she was having trouble coming, but they were 'fooling around', and he was wet and even though he didn't come into her, he did everything but. I know that I myself hate these questions, but I don't think she should test yet, and she begged me to find out for her, so I decided to ask your opinions. Are these all symptoms of pregnancy? Could she be imagining things? Molly's completely freaked out, and I told her that she should have just used protection, but she says because they didn't actually have intercourse that they didn't need it. Anyway, I was just wondering what you guys thought.



Hot flashes
light headed
dizzy
a little nauseated
mild headaches
mild cramps
tired
hard abdomen
frequent peeing
lighter period (usually very heavy with painful cramps, now fairly light)

would these be happening after two weeks?

Maybe, maybe not. If she is pregnant, she'll say she had all these symptoms.

If it turns out not to be pregnancy, she'll chalk it up to pms - or forget about it altogether.

If she feels like she may be pregnant, there is no harm in taking a pregnancy test.

The fact that she had a 'period', and he didn't go inside her, she is more than likely not pregnant - but a test won't hurt anything.

Wish her luck!

but if she already had her 'period'... She wouldn't be pregnant. If she doesn't feel that was her period and was something else, she should take a pregnancy test. ;)

she could always go to planned parenthood, they'd test her and she could get some birth control and condoms while she was there.

Wel I don't thin kshe would have a hard abdomen so fast.I think thats something that takes a little time so that may be in her head,but being dizzy,nauseated, hot flashes are signs of pregnancy.She should test to make sure cause she could be pregnant.Tell molly I hope she has a girl lmao

You're a freak melissa lol I dont think the hard abdomen is in her head, I thought that could be due to her "uterus" expanding or whatever... Same with the peeing? Who knows.

Generally, your uterus is tucked behind your pubic bone (i know! Why does it hurt so much further up when on your period?). During pregnancy it starts to grow rapidly, but doesn't grow 'that' fast. At 2fingerbreadths (that's 2 fingers to you and me ;) below your belly button, you are around 18 weeks pregnant.

Your friend's stomach would not be 'hard' just yet because anything that would be getting hard isn't even visible from behind the pubic bone. ;)
