Hormones. If it is approximately 2 weeks until your period, this would be the time when you would be ovulating.

Symptoms usually start after you miss your period. Of course, someone will come along and say, "Oh, I had symptoms as soon as I had sex." Which is mostly wishful thinking. It takes a few days after sex before implantation and then it takes awhile for your hormones to kick in. All this usually - not always - coincides with your period being late.

Breasts start to hurt after that. As well as morning sickness kicking in between 5-7 weeks along - if you get it, not all women do. Breast tenderness isn't often the first sign.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

thank you!
I just find it really odd this month, cos they havent stopped hurting since about 2 weeks before my last AF, getting abit fed up now really.

Oh well guess ill just have to suffer.
Thanks

OK, im trying to avoid sounding like im obsessed but they really hurt!! Its not normal for me to keep having sore boobs, its bee about 4 weeks now..
Also i felt so dizzy at work the other day, and keep feeling like af is coming but i only had it two weeks ago!??
Im so confused but dont really want to go to docs if there just going to tell me that its hormones....

Anyone been in this situation?

ManyThanks and BabyDust to those that need it xoxox

Mine started hurting the day after my period was due, and have been sore since then.

Oh well i guess everyones diferent.
Im having cramps now, but sure thats what i normally get ayway so prob ovulation maybe.
My lower back hurts too!

Ok I remember when I was pregnant with my first child my breasts were very tender to touch, very swollen an sore. I breastfed my son and Im wondering if that has anything to do with it. My period is a few weeks late an I feel like Iam Pregnant. I have a weak stomach when it comes to food an certain smells. I have light headaches. I have mild cramping. My breasts have lil bumps on them again. I find myself being alittle unbalanced the last few days now. My breasts are darkening but not sore. When I pee it feels as if theres a pulling sensation. Like I had when I was pg with my son. I plan on getting a test tomorrow but all these early symptoms sore breasts are at the top.

Any idea why this is

Its hard to explain really but but for the last2 months the condom has broke twice and we didnt know and im not on the pill and the first time it broke it was a few days after my preiod then the 2cnd month it broke it was it was 1 week after my period now ive been geting headaches, sore breasts, feeling bloated at times and eating alot more which is unusual for me im the type of person that doesnt. my last period was light but with an achey back and it also felt like my stomach was stretching only a bit. i am really worried i no im stupid and should be on the pill but it messes up periods and iv heard it stops you from having kids when your older and im not plannin on havin a kid! some help would be really great thanks x

Being on the pill does not mess up your periods-- many women specifically take birth control pills to regulate their periods and reduce pms symptoms. The pill does NOT affect your ability to have children in the future.

Take a pregnancy test. If it comes out negative and you want more accurate information about birth control pills or even back up methods for women where the condoms break, just let me know and I'll point you in the right direction.

Hello, can anyone help me please? I had my period on the 23rd of May for five days and I ovulated from the 3rd(I think) to the 6th (the 6th being the most fertile of days). I had unprotected sex from the 3rd to the 5th. I am now having tender breast and have having menstrual cramps as well. Could I be pregnant or am I fine? It just seems too soon for my period to be coming back already.

Hello, me and my husband are trying to have a child, I was on Depo Birth Control for a long time and have been off it for 4 months. We had sex a week ago when I thought I should be most fertile, and now my breats are sooooo sore, and I have a twinge in behind my belly button. I think it is "wishful" thinking, but could I be pregnant? I feel fine tho. Other then REALLY sore breats. The twinge inst that bad. I just know its there.
Thanks
