New Here...worried Posted: 02-02-04 18:18pm
Hi everyone, I am 18 years old and 6.5
weeks pregnant with my first baby. Before
I found out I was pregnant I was having
all the classic symptoms, now that I found
out(which was about 2 weeks ago) I only
have sore breasts. Nausea is just
starting to play a role too, but I am
still not convinced. I have been to my
first pre-natal visit before, but the
thing is he didn't even make me take a
pregnancy test. He did do the full exam,
take blood and urine, but how does he
truley know that I am pregnant? I need
some real convincing. My tummy isn't
getting much bigger and my uterus doesn't
feel any different. Maybe I am just being
paranoid, but I am getting worried that
something is wrong.

Well why dont you take a pregnancy test
yourself? Sometimes it wont set in that
quick, like you wont believe it til you
see that tummy! Lol but if you are sure
you are pregnant then you should start
believing it. Take care of youself until
the next appt when they will hear the
heart beat and dont worry too much ok!
Welcome to the boards! Take care!

Hey there!
Dont worry about ur tummy getting bigger!
Some people dont even get a belly till
about 28 weeks! But if ur feeling
nauseous, and have some signs of pregnant
and missed a period, usually u are and im
pretty sure at the doctors office, they
also test the urine for pregnancy... But
if it would make u feel better,u can
always get another one done at the doctors
office or get a home pregnancy test again

My doctor did the same thing. They
weren't even going to test me to be sure I
really was. They were just going to take
my word for it and I didn't believe it
either so they did another test right in
the office. It took a long time to sink
in..Basically until I had real bad morning
sickness that landed me in the hospital
because of dehydration. It will take
awhile to set it. And you wouldn't have
a belly at 6.5 weeks. I mean some women
do...I personally did. But majority of
women don't.

Actually when they are doing a physical on
you, and they check your abdomin, they can
feel if it is enlarged or not, if its
enlarged, congratulations you have a baby
in there! Lol

Everyone is sooo talkative on this site..
Im soo glad.. Its making me feel better
now. Anyway... Well take a home test to
believe it or not.. Since you got all the
symptoms of being pregnant. Some ppl dont
