Q: Flu-like Symptoms
asked by: asherz on October 30th, 2004

Hi. My boyfriend (well, sorta.. That's a story in itself) and I had unprotected sex three times. Once while I was on my period, then 2 times about a week afterwards. He did cum inside me..

I've not missed a period yet. I am due for af on nov. 15.

But, lately i've been expierencing mild cramping and extreme tiredness. I've also been expierencing flu-like symptoms...

I'm just wondering if this sounds like early signs of pregnancy.

Wow, tubby, a little rude don't you think? We come here for support, not criticism. How do u know that she wasn't trying to get preg?

Ash, I felt the same way a couple weeks ago and took a $1 test from the dollar store. It came back neg. I started my period yesterday, so it must have been the flu. If you really want to know try taking a test in the am, but otherwise wait until your period.

Good luck, hope u get what u want.

I understand what you're saying tubby, but at the forum we try to support. Please try to remember that and instead of putting someone down give constructive criticism. And know all the facts b4 u judge. We don't even know if ash was trying to get preg or not.

To driver: depends on the test, but the one I just took said it was neg if it was just one pink line. If there was 2 it meant pos.

It s not abnormal to have a neg test and actually be preg. She should take another one (in the am). It still may come up neg. Lots of people have all false negs on those tests and only a blood test will show they're preg. But not too worry too much. I spot once in awile. She could have been spotting from stress, or excerise change, or diet change, or medication change (the bc pill or other)

I thought I was preg a couple weeks ago due to my flu-like symptoms but since they have gone away and i've had my period. However some girls can still have one or 2 periods even if preg. So if the symptoms don't go away go get a test!

Hey everyone! Okay, I am due to get my period on the 16th of this month and I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on the days I was ovulating. 2 days ago I felt like I was going to die. I had flu symptoms like crazy. I felt like I was going to throw up all day, I felt like I was running a fever, and just touching my skin hurt (like it was sunburnt). My breasts have been very sore for about a week now and i'v felt sick (like i'm gonna puke) on and off all day. Also...I'v had to pee alot more often then normal and if I hold it for just a little bit, it hurts when I finaly do pee. I'v been told that it is to soon to have symptoms but I don't know!!! So I know how ya'll are feeling!!!! Keep posting on this girls!!! Oh..I have also been having period cramps today...What's up with that??

This Is 4 Tubby
You have some nerve to say what you said this is a forum to help people and you are on here judging people. We can all tell you've been hurt, but that doesn't give you the right to hurt others. Grow up! And to all the girls who think they might be pregnant I know your scared, but don't keep holding off just take a pregnancy test before it's too late so you can start pre-natal care. Best wishes to all!
