Q: Stress Or Pregnant?
asked by: caracook on January 3rd, 2004

I'm 3 days late which isn't much but i'm usually right on time. I've had nausea, cravings, food aversions, smells are a lot stronger to me, i'm bloated and I usually get horrible cramps before my period but I had some minor cramping a few times but it's mostly stopped. My mom died when I was younger and my period stayed on schedule... I'm not stressed out at all... It's still early to get a blood test. What's going on?

I'm 20 but I have been regular since I was 13. I have unprotected sex every time. I'm engaged so don't think I run around and never use protection with a lot of men... And also, please don't judge me because i'm 20. I'm emotionally and financially stable and I have a very tight knit family.

I Am Only 21
No sweetheart I dont judge anyone that is not my job or my place the reason I asked how old you are and if you had unprotected sex is because when I was 20 my body went through these changes of skipping a month and it scared me to and the sex thing was because if you r not having unprotected sex then the chances are a lot less likely but either please dont jump to conclusions we are all here for the same reason help

I've just had a lot of older women being very rude because i'm only 20. I don't think that's fair. I really am stable in my life and i'm very happy. They don't know me and yet they can get so mean. I wasn't saying you were judging me, I was just saying in case you were going to (i didn't know how old you were) I would rather people not. Anyways, are you pregnant now?

I'm going through something very similar. I have experienced the same symptoms, and all of the other things apply to me as well. The only difference is I am 19. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is happening to me, because my body feels foreign to me right now, and I do not know what to do. Please help.

So far the hpts have all been bfn's. I know some people have that p whatever syndrom where they make their bodies think they're pregnant. I'm scared I have that. I just feel different this month. Everyone, please send me lots of baby dust! I'm trying not to think i'm pregnant so maybe I won't be convincing myself and forcing myself to be late. But, shouldn't you hope and pray? This is all so confusing!!!!!!!

It is all confusing and it is also scary but you dont want to psych yourself out going to the doctors may be the only way to rid you of this confusion

you could also be pregnant. Are you trying to get pregnant? If so good luck and lots of baby dust and if not baby dust to me! If you want to talk you can email me.

last night me and my fiance had sex (which usually makes af come if i'm supposed to start soon). No af last night and none this morning. I've stopped psyching myself out. I figure if it doesn't happen I will work harder next month. Good luck to all of you!

I don't understand your last post. Did I do something or are you upset about something else? Sigh. I'm not leaving the site. I'll be trying once i'm done with my period. The people on this site and on pregnancy.Com have been really nice and supportive and i'm really glad I joined the sites. Thanks everybody and I hope you all get what you want. I'm gonna be making a new topic at the end of this month for people who are supposed to start jan. 31st through feb. 7th so come find me then. (i'm staying on here, just thought i'd mention it) i'm hoping it happens this month cause then i'd find out in feb. And my birthday is in feb.
