Teen Pregnancy Forum - Ok.. I Need Help... Is There Anyone Who Can Help Me?

Ok im 17 and im kinda scared. I think I might be pregnant. I didnt really think I was until a few friends of mine made comments about the way I have been acting lately. According to this website I found, I would be almost 5 weeks and starting to show very little. These are the symptoms I have been getting for about the last week or so:
--nausia
--mild stomache aches
--bloating
--sum back aches
--sore/tender breasts
--slightly swollen breasts
--mild cramping
--eating alot
--constantly tired
--weird cravings
--mouth waters alot
and sometimes I have to pee alot, I went up a whole cup size in a month, I gained 5 pds this month, and I havent gotten my period.

The weird part is, my bf seems to have "sympathy symptoms" and the weird thing is, he started them b4 I told him what was going on. We used protection for the most part.. All of my friends think I am pregnant and im starting to think I am too.. Can anyone help me? Do u think I am? Im kinda scared to take a test bc I dont know what I would do either way.. And if im not pregnant then what else could it be?
-plz help me in anyway u can-
<3 x0 so confused. :?

It's *always possible*, you must test. I know it's frekin scary (hell i'm 22 and had a scare a couple of weeks ago... My hands shook the entire 1/2 hour between buying the test and getting home to use it!), but the only way to know for sure is to test. If it comes out negative then you may want to call your doctor about your symptoms.
Best luck you you & come back to update!

First things first... Are u late for a period? Dont stress ur self out because if u do that it might make it so ur period is late! Other than that those are signs and symptoms but... Take a test, that is the only way to know!

Did you miss your period or what? I'd say there is a chance. But if all the symptoms continue wait and see if your period comes and a couple days after if it still doesn't come take a test! Good luck!!!

Let me tell you a little something about all that stress and worrying not only does it make your hormones out of whack but your mind can make your body believe that you are pregnant and then your body will show signs. If you are pregnant, congrats....I didnt have any signs or symptoms of my pregnancy till I was about 2 months pregnant, and I had an irregular cycle to top it all off. It's scary I know I am 16 and just made 6 months. Just remember we are all here for you. Keep us posted.
