She is feeling sick 2-3 times a day, funny taste in her mouth, very tired, totally paranoid, but on the other hand she has period symtoms aswell i.e. back pain and stomach cramps but she is not due for another 2 weeks.

And its too early to do a pregnancy test

Someone put me out of my misery please

Alan

May just be symptons from worrying about being pregnant. I think you will just have to wait till you can do a pregnancy test to no for sure.

I know Ian but the suspense is killing me, does anyone know if its possible her period could be 2 weeks early

Hello

It isn't too early? I think Clear Blue can show positive almost the second after the condom breaks....

(said sarcastically, but it's meant to be serious. Check the pack in Boots)

Steve.

Steve,

The clearblue instructions say it cant tell until after she releases some hormone which only occurs when its after her period time.

Alan

Well I've had a pregnancy test show negative and then 1 week later, whoops. She should wait to get accurate reading.

Hello

A quick scan on google: 6 days after conception apparently.

Although as you say, it's better around or just after expected period time.

Steve.

Clearblue can't tell until she should have started her period. They are also as accurate as what the doctor can do and if you tell the doctor you have used one, they won't test you! Try and get her to chill out as being uptight and worried can actually cause her period to come late and worry more etc.

She could just be having a middle of the month pain.

I suffer from that occasionally, I just have to put up with it.

It could also be something like mild food poisoning, migraine etc.

We have been trying for a few months, got one of those ovulation kits and nailed it at the right time, but Im just hoping these symtoms are not just in her mind

Alan

Thought you were hoping otherwise!!!!

Good luck to you both then and I hope she is pregnant. :D

Main thing is not to fret and worry about it, let nature take it's course. :) Easy to say I know....:)

Thanks LMW, we keep saying to ourselves that she's not but the sickness and tiredness keep telling us otherwise, fingers crossed.

Alan

Had period like pains a couple of weeks into pregnancy, before pregnancy test confirmed my suspicions, this was with both of my pregnancies so does sound likely, fingers crossed.

Good luck, my other half went off milk within a week of becoming pregnant and her sense of taste changed.

LOL at "nailed it"

The only symptom you haven't described is her breasts feeling slightly tender. If she's got that as well then you probably did 'nail her' good and proper :D

Anyway keep trying 'till you know for sure, I'm sure you'll oblige

Good luck

If you get the Predictor tests (in pink packaging) you get 2 tests, so you can do one now, then one after she was due for her period. I did mine about a week before I was due & it showed up positive, very faint, I had to hold it up to the light to see it, then a week after, and it was much clearer :D

its a little to early at the moment, if she is in the middle of her cycle it might well just be ovulation (some women can tell precisly when they ovulate)

best thing you can do is to get on with everyday life and not worry or hope too much....


pregnancy tests work best the day the period is late, not sure they would be too accurate beforehand.

it is very very early for "symptoms" tho some women are "sick" from the day they become pregnant... most dont start to feel any thing until into the 1st month.

good luck anyhow, fingers crossed in 2 weeks you get the result you want.

My wife started feeling ill the month after. First it was feeling a bit unwell, then sicknes, then lack of appetite, vomiting...

She ended up taking a few months of work, regular stays in hospital, constant sickness, headaches... Hyperemesis Gravidarum it's called. Calmed down abit midway though. Well, until she started suffering from Pre-eclampsia towards the end of her pregnancy and she had to have more stays in hospital.

Still, the end result was worth it :D :D :D

:eek: @ nimbus

My, you old romantic....;)
