Pregnancy Symptoms

I took 3 pregnancy tests and they all came
back positive.. So the way I figure it is
that im about 5 weeks along.. I made a
dr's appointment.. But I just cant seem
to get comfortable when laying down and im
having a very dull achy lower back.. Now
this is my second child and I did not feel
this way with my first.. My breasts are
slightly sore and I feel a little
nauseas.. What are some reasons for a
false positive.. I mean if it wasnt for
the tests I wouldnt know I was pregnant

It sounds like you're pregnant to me. I
can't get comfortable when I lay down
either and my lower back is sore. And
i've had a blood test and i'm definitely
pregnant. Congratulations!

Well I went to the dr today.. She did a
urine test and a blood hcg.. But she
didnt do a hcg level test just to confirm
my pregnancy.. Both came back positive..
So I guess that means I defintely am
pregnant.. No I guess all I can hope for
is that I go to the ob doc and they tell
me everything is fine with the baby.. Ive
never had a miscarriage and I have a son
who is 4..

Well this is weird.. I know that I am
pregnant due to all those positive
results.. My breast soreness isnt
really the whole breast it seems just to
be the nipples from time to time.. I
dont really feel to sick to my stomache
anymore either.. I really wish my doc
would have done a hcg level when I went to
see her to confirm the pregnancy so I
could get the referral to the ob..
Military spouse here so they do it
differently im guessing because I never
had to do that with my son.. I dont
remember honestly how I felt with my son
because it was almost 5 years ago.. So I
dont know if this is normal or if
something is wrong.. I know every
pregnancy isnt the same. Im just so
nervous that I will go to the dr whenever
they get me in and they will tell me
something is wrong.. This is my
husbands(my second marriage) first child..
I dont want anything to be wrong because
I know how much he wants a child.. I
have been looking up online possible
reasons for a hcg test to give a false
positive but I havent really found
anything other than ovarian cancer being a
reason.. Sometimes I think I feel
pregnant others I dont.. I dont know if
the breast soreness and queaziness was all
in my head to start with.. Lol I always
pee alot so I cant very well count on that
to be a symptom.. I know worrying isnt
good for me or the baby if I am infact
pregnant and nothing is wrong but I just
cant help it..I thought by now I would be
feeling pregnant atleast.. I figure im
about 6-7 weeks now just going by my lmp..
Shouldnt I be feeling something?
Shouldnt my tummy start getting atleast a
little firm by now.. I dont even remember
when that starts.. Oh and from time to
time I feel a little flutter in my
stomache on both sides im not sure what
that is about.. Any comments you ladies
have to calm me down would help ';/

I had the lower back pain in the early
weeks of my pregnancy and I didn't feel
sick once for the whole nine months. As
for the breast pain I too got really sore
around the nipples kind of like a really
hot feeling.
I didn't really feel pregnant until I had
my first scan at twelve weeks and saw my
baby on the screen (more like a peanut
shape) but none the less a baby and I
really felt pregnant when he started
kicking which isn't until the 22nd - 25th
week of pregnancy.
As for tummy firmness your baby is only
10mm if you are only 7 weeks pregnant so I
wouldn't worry about that in fact enjoy
the flat tummy while you can!
All your symptoms and non symptoms seem
completely normal to me and remember every
pregnancy is different.
I hope this helps.

Well lol I wish I had that flat tummy..
Im a little heavy so I suppose that is why
I dont notice the tummy firmness at all
yet.. I probably wont feel pregnant till
that scan like you said.. Im just so
nervous because I didnt think I could have
anymore since my right ovary was removed
and for 4 years I did not get pregnant
again.. But thanks for your help

Could you be further along than you think?
Symptoms dont usually occur that soon?
Are you bleeding at all?

Well im not sure how far along I am since
it is possible to have your period while
pregnant.. I missed my period in april
but every month before that I had my
period.. But now no im not bleeding at
all.. So I guess that I just have to wait
for my first ob visit

Ok this is making me a bit more nervous
than before.. Im not peeing as much as I
was.. Its hard telling when my miltary
ob doctor will ever get me into his
office.. Id like to have a hcg level
done to make sure that it is doubling
normally..
