I had sex about four weeks ago and I had a
period but it didn't last the normal 5
days. I am now about one week and some
days away from having another period. The
last past week I have been feeling bad;
can't lay on y stomach, urinating a lot,
having the sour jaws, feeling hungry,
having cramps, having headaches, and my
nipples are sensitive and stay hard. Do
these things me that I could be suspecting
a baby? Also, how soon can I take a
pregnancy test?

It sounds more likely that you are
experiencing PMS symptoms and your period
will be here soon.
Since you got a period after having sex,
odds are you are not pregnant. Even if
the amount of flow was lighter, it is
really very rare for women to have what
they mistake as an actual period when they
are pregnant. Usually, the women this
happens to have very light periods to
start with. Even in my case, I did have
very light periods--needing a tampon 1 day
only and then just pantyliners thereafter.
I'm 12 weeks pregnant, and I did have
spotting around the time of my period, but
even that I never mistook for my period
because it was just spotting and it was
mostly pink/brown in color instead of red
and I never had actual flow.
If you are still worried and haven't had
unprotected sex since the one encounter,
you can take a home pregnancy test now
since you would have gotten pregnant
before your last period.
