The best thing for everyone to do is get a blood test done and see what that says or you can schedule an appointment with your doctor to maybe get an ultrasound to see if you are or not. I am on clomiphen to get pregnant the first time didnt work i am getting ready to start my second round hopefully this round will work been trying for almost 2 years now been married 5 years going on 6 years this december
I am 20 yes old and trying to have a baby with my husband. My period should of started on the 13th of July, I am four days late I took a first respond pregnancy test and it came out negative. I am having pregnancy symptoms. Like feeling like I want to through up. Blue vans on my breast. Going to the rest room a lot and cramps. Am I pregnant ? Can someone help me
I am a 34yr old mom with 2 children .. My husband and I have recently decided to start TTC. I have always had ovulation pain and know exactly when my ovulation is beginning. On day 12 of my cycle I felt ovulation pain. We had sex the next day. on day 19 of my cycle I started having intermittent light cramping. I am now on day 23 of my cycle and I am still experiencing the light intermittent cramping, have been mildly emotional and have had an acne breakout . (I did have early cramping with both of my previous pregnancies but I do not remember when it began or how long it lasted, being emotional is not a normal PMS symptom for me and I rarely have any acne let alone a breakout) I normally never have cramping until the day of or day before bleeding begins, and normally stops 5-7 days later just before my bleeding stops. I took a early HPT on day 22 and it was negative, however i know this is a bit early to be testing (my husband was insistent even though I told him it was way too early) . With both of my previous pregnancies it only took one attempt to conceive (so I am guessing and hoping it is easy for me TTC). I have not had any spotting with the cramping (previously I had implantation spotting with my second pregnancy but not with my first). I just don't know if this is a sign that I am indeed pregnant? Could it be psychosomatic because I really want to be pregnant? When should I retest with a HPT? I am very anxious and just don't know if I am pregnant or just think I am because i really want to be? I am very anxious, please help with any advice or similar experience you have had, I feel like an idiot for asking
