My last period was on sept 7. I have not taken a pregnancy test because I want to wait to see if I miss my next period. I know it's very early, but we did try last month while I believed to be fertile. So, I would really be 1 week only. Now, i'm getting the worst sharp shooting pains in both of my breasts. I've never had this pain before my periods so it's very new to me and painful by touch. I was told it could be my body creating an ample supply of estrogen which could mean I am pregnant. Also, i'm having extreme leg pains in my right leg. It feels so heavy and tired like I ran a marathon or something is eating away inside. Are these early signs? Could I feel it this early?

Were you on birth control? I had symptoms like that when I first got off the patch!

Not sure about the leg pain but the breast pain sounds right. Its weird thats when I had my last period and im pretty sure im pregnant too Exclamation

we would be due on or around the same day. Im planning on a test soon. The first response brand will let you test up to 4 days before your period is due and be able to get a pos result if you are. If it comes out neg try again in a few days. Exclamation

good luck

The leg pain could be something you should see a doctor for, not to worry you, but it could be something like a blood clot from your description. Are you overweight or do you smoke or have you been on an airplane or long train trip lately?

Leg Pain...

I thought about god forbid a blood clot too, but it's just a tired pain. My mom use to get them when she was my age. I also work in an office for 8 hours so I think that doesn't help. I try to take breaks and walk around to circulate my blood. Oh, no I never smoked and I am normal weight, maybe even a little under if anything.

Just Don't Feel It

I still have the sore boobs but I don't think/feel that i'm prego. I just don't have any other symptoms. Unless i'm late next week than i'll write back. Also, I will take a pt if I am late. No one should assume until they take it. Good luck to all of you mothers-to-be!!!
