How Did You Find Out Your Pregnant
Posted: 02-15-06 09:32am

A different thread got me curioeus as to how everyone found out.
I sorta had suspiscions I was pregnant and all of my friends kept saying maybe your pregnant! Maybe your pregnant! Because I was feeling sick at school every morning almost all day. My period was never regular I had actually only had it about 6 or 7 times before I got pregnant. And it not unusual for me to skip a month or even 2 months so I couldnt base it on that. But I had not had it for 2 months. So my friends were buggering me to take a test they all thought it was funny I guess I thought it was kind funny also cause I didnt think it could be possible I was pregnant cause ive heard that the first year your having your period you cant get pregnant. Well anyways next time my mom went to walmart I went with her and I told her I was going to look around. But really I ran to the parhamcy section and I bought a 2 package of pregnancy test.
Then I couldnt wait to take them so I got on my cell phone and called one of my friends I was like omg I just bought 2 test i'm about to take them! We were all laughing. Well I went in the bathroom and took one test and two big fat lines showed up as soon as my pee soaked across the stick. I looked at the box again and it showed what positive was, which was 2 lines. There was nothing faint about the result line, it was as bright as the test line. I was like wait that cant be right. I was still on the phone with my friend she was all laughing saying whats it say? I said there is 2 lines and it means i'm pregnant and she didnt laugh no more and then she said are you being serious? I told her i'd call her back. So then I took the other stick out and used it also and it also was a bright two lines. I sat on the toilet and started nearly hyperventalating. When I stood up I got a huge head rush and was shaking all over. I left the box with the positive test sitting on the back of the toilet. I still wonder what someone thought when they foudn them. Lol.
My phone keep going off and it was 3 of my different friends trying to all call me and texting me but I turned it off I just was in to much shock to talk.
So then I met my mom in her grocery line and I was dead silent and my mom was all whats wrong with you? On the way home. So I told her on the way home because I could no tkeep it a secret I was so scared. I don't see how some girls go weeks or even months without telling thier parents. It was just a huge overwhelming feeling.
Well it is not a safe thing to tell your mom your pregnant while shes driving. She looked off the road and at me and said are you fxking serious! And my mom never ever cusses at me. Lol.
Thats the basic of it, it proceded from there. Well now I am 20 weeks along with a girl and even though my parents were angry and cussing we are all back to being a regular family now, just with a new baby on the way. My friend who is the dad of the baby, my parents called his parents the night that I found out iwas pregnant and we all went over there for a huge talk even though it was late like 9 nearly 10pm. His mom started crying I remember that cause it made me feel terrible.
Our parents still get together and talk and its kind of nice because he and his parents are very involved also. This baby will have a lot of support and lots of people that already love her :)
anywho what is some of your stories?

I just started to feel really sick, and like you I have never had regular periods, so it would usually skip about 3 months. Then sickness didn't stop and I started to put on weight. So I made myself a doctors appointment. The first think he said when I walked through the door was
" are you pregant" I didn't even say anything when I walked in, he just quessed!!! Well anyways. I took a test and it said that I was, I didn't know wether to keep it or not, I talked it over with my bf and it seemed the right dession to keep them. I went for my first scan about a 2 month ago, and it showed a healthy baby. The next scan I had showed something different, there was not only just one healthy baby, but 2.
Yesterday I found out that I was just about 5months pregnant and I was expecting a girl and a boy.

Silly story I know, but hey thats life

and alcohol

Ash my hormones are messing with me cuz I almost cried at your story lol

ne ways w/ my first baby I wanted to b pregnant weird I no but it was the only way I was getting out of the small town I lived in and moving with my now husband I went to the health clinic to find out since thats free and im cheap

with this one I had been breastfeeding my daughter so I hadnt had a period and after I stopped breastfeeding her it still never came so when I was at walmart I bought a 2 pack and took it when I got home. I didnt even take the second one cuz the first one was so clear and this whole pregnancy has been obvious its a boy I found out for sure of course but I just kinda knew I was pregnant again. I am 35 weeks today

Thoughts of pregnancy sometimes occur through my mind most of the time and its funny how I slept all the time back in my high school days.. I go to school 7-3 everyday but one day at a cheerleading competition I made a remark to myself saying god I was fat.. And I was going to lose weight.. So I started losing weight and still slept all day whenever I dont have school or not. So I waited for my period to come .. 1 day late... 2 day late.. 3 day late.. So I had my friend to come with me to the pharmacy and take a test.. So I went and bought pregnancy test.. And tested them first thing in the morning.. Came out postive.. And im like naw it can't be it.. So I went to the dr and tested.. And she came in and said yep you are.. So basically the only way I could tell that I was was that I was sleeping all the time.

This time I had variety of symptoms.. So waiting to see my period would come..

As soon as I missed my period I knew I was because i've never missed a period. Even when I was 13 and stupid and staying up for like 5 days on end and treating my body like crap. Took a test a couple days later and it was positive. :lol:

I have never had regular periods, so I go months without them sometimes. With my first (my son), I had no symptoms at all. I was 8 weeks when I found out. It was the 4th of july and we were going out on a boat. I tried my swimming suit on and my friend said, "you look pregnant". It pissed me off at first. Then I decided to go buy a test. I never in a million years thought it would be positive. I seen two lines right away. I was so excited. Jumping up and down. This time we had been trying for over two years and nothing. So I gave up. I had to take these antibiotics you cannot take while you are preggo, so I took a test. I thought it was a waste of money. I bought a digitial one. I took it at 4am. My hubby and son where asleep. I left the bathroom and came back in 5 minutes. It said "pregnant". I ran into the bedroom and yelled for my hubby. He came in there and I said, "the test is broken, there isn't a not in front of pregnant." lol. So I went for a blood test, and found out 10 days after I ovulated.

Thought I was pregnant even before I missed my period, so I took the pregnancy test as early as you can, I think its 4 days before your period is due..Or something like that. It was positive. I thought it must be wrong, even though I felt I was....I guess I was in denial. I bought about 10 tests altogether...Wasted so much money on them lol but I really couldnt believe that I was.

Then reality hit me and I suddenly thought oh sh*t how do I tell my parents...What do I do..Where am I going to live, what about the father etc etc. Scary time.

I some how knew about 2 weeks before I would even have missed my period. I think it was because I didn't want to eat anything but pickles and milk. So I took a test about 4 days before I should have had my period and it was positive. I didn't want to believe it, so I took the other. But here I am now, 28 1/2 weeks and very excited. I can't wait!
