Q: Could I Be Pregnant??
asked by: AmandaDowd on May 5th, 2004

My husband (29) and I (23) have started "trying" for a couple of months now. I have been using the ovulation test strips, and I had an lh surge on saturday morning. Needless to say... The weekend was busy. On sunday night, my nipples started becoming very tender and the bumps slightly more pronounced. The soreness has continued now for a few days (today is tuesday late afternoon). Since sunday afternoon, I have had an unusually large amount of white oderless thick pasty discharge that appears white on underware and slightly yellow on toliet paper. I have an unusual sensation in my lower abdomen - not full blown cramps; but more of a "pang" or a dull sensation. Does that make sense? I know a pregnancy test would not register if I were to be pregnant for another week and a half or so (period not due until the 14th). Could I be pregnant?? I was told that a woman my age has a 25% chance every cycle, but if we time sex to the few days of ovulation, do the odds go up??

Hey I just re read through this and wanted to also add- that I notcied my symptoms about 1 week into it, everyones body is different and I think your symptoms are very real- pregnant or not- I hope you are*Smile only you know if something is happening to your body, and if it seems unusual- theres times where pregnanacy tests just fail to give accurate answers, but yes there are times when the symptoms you described may be just pre- period boob tenderness etc. Either I wish the best for both of you take care and let us know how if and when you are pregnant!!

The same thing happened to be back in january. My nipples were hard and breast were so tender I could not wear a bra or even a shirt. I had to sleep nude and could not let anything touch them. I was constantly going to the bathroom and my stomach was upset with everything that I ate or drank. I took 3 pregnancy tests and they were all negative. A couple days later af came along. I was disappointed but there is much more time! Good luck to you.

Blue Lines...
I read all over that dark veins show up, but i've always had this, so my breast are no different now then they were before I pg. Actually the soreness has pretty much gone away. They are not bigger or fuller. The nipples are tender, and they are starting to get darker, but other then that, my breasts are normal. But were hurting a lot before this.

Does anyone know when they will start hurting again??

I would say wait until you take your period.. Test usually work after about 15 days. Af is aunt flo, a term for your period. Do you want to be pregnant? How oldare you?
