Hello! I am new. Nice to meet you all...
I have a couple of symptoms that I think are a little strange. (by the way I read the post about "before you ask about pregnancy..Etc.), :) but I do want to get some opinions to see if my symptoms may be normal.
I am 20 years old, in a very serious and committed relationship, and have not been practicing any type of birth control.
I have missed my period. (first day of last period was may 18). I have taken 4 hpt, all of which are neg, and the last one I took was yesterday.
I have been experiencing all of the pregnancy symptoms, nausea, breast tenderness, tiredness, etc, but I have also been experiencing cramping. In the middle of the night I can feel slight cramps, but they usually go away by morning. It is not that bad nor uncomfortable, but it is there. (for about 2 days now) I have also been experiencing pressure in my lower abdomen. It feels as if there is a balloon on my tummy getting bigger and bigger. I have never felt that before. It does not exactly hurt, but it is really uncomfortable to be in certain sitting positions. (this started happening today)... Another thing that has been going on is, when I use the restroom,( #1) a sharp shooting goes up my stomach and it seems like into my chest. It is not painful nor really uncomfortable, just a little weird. Again, never have experienced that before either.
I do know that I may possibly be pregnant, but until I see a doctor (its sat and the Dr. Office is closed all weekend and monday), i’m not sure. With these symptoms I do not feel any intense pain or anything, but I am wondering if what I am experiencing is okay, normal, weird, etc. Or if anyone has felt it too? Please give me some advice and insight. Thanks for listening .
