Common Questions and Answers about Early pregnancy vs. pms
pregnant
I know that many symptoms are similar....PMS vs pregnancy. My body is regulating itself from going off of the pill after using it for about 10 years, so I expect new things all of the time. I am always hopefull I am pregnant but dont get too excited because I know how often things change as my body is regulating itself. It is always nice to post how I am feeling and what I am going through though because someone else might understand.
I had headaches and very tired, which are for me typical PMS signs. So I guess, yes, PMS and early pregnancy symptoms can be similar. I know many women have no pregnancy symptoms until 5 or 6 weeks, but I get them about 1 week before period would normally be due. As for Dr. test, yes a blood test will pick up HCG before a urine test (at least I am pretty certain it does).
Im also pregnant with my second child and will be 6 weeks next week and have been havinh cramps also but didn't this early with my first baby.
ve broken out with acne and I feel bloated. For anyone else, that would seem like PMS, but I rarely to never get PMS symptoms--I don't get moody and I dont cramp and I never had acne not even as a teenager. I've also never in the 12 years I've been menstrating had spotting in the middle of my cycle. I tried researching and almost everything says this is implantation bleeding. Its too early to test (my cycles are generally 30 days), but I wanted to know what others think?
Hi, so I'm new here, but I'd just like to know if this is PMS or pregnancy or some other problem.
Like on Monday my boyfriend and I were playing around, we didn't have sex, as I am a virgin. But for about 3 secs he tried to see what would happen if he tried to enter me, he tried to insert but it was painful and it was only his tip that went as far as to my hymen I think but overall he didn't go inside of me, there was no precum nor did he ejaculate.
Hi all. I'm not looking for a substitute for a doctors answer but just wondering if anyone can explain what a contraction feels like. I'm 25 weeks. I fell down the stairs yesterday and my pants were soaked so of course I called the dr and went in to make sure nothing was wrong. She said everything seemed fine so I was content. I woke up this morning with cramps. Period cramps so it's consistent pain.
i have a lot of the pregnancy symptoms, but they’re so similar to PMS that it’s hard to tell which it could be. my breast are tender, i have been waking in the middle of the night, remembering all my dreams, and my back is aching and sometimes my stomach will. i get these hot flashes but i read these can all be period symptoms as well? i’m going to take a test on the 10th day i just wanted some advice for now.
with my son i had started getting really bad acne (3-4 at a time, they would go away and then i'd get a few more & so on) within the first trimester (between 5-14 weeks) and then it cleared up, but everyone is different so there is still a possibility of a BFP! as for me i am due for AF today but want to hold off a day or more just in case i was a day or 2 off, but still no AF symptoms and no BFP! wishing you the best of luck and some baby dust!!!!!
You can start feeling symptoms 10 days after ovulation . I started cramping 10 days after so I did some research. I normally do not cramp before my period but I am going to wait until next week to take a test.
If it is 21 days too early for a pregnancy test, then it is also too early for symptoms. In all actuality you probably haven't even ovulated yet in this cycle as you ovulate about 13 days before your period - a HPT can be taken 5 days before a missed period so you will wont ovulate and thus have a chance of getting pregnant for another week.
I didn't have any pregnancy symptoms until I was 6 weeks along. Many of my friends didn't have them either until they were at least 5 weeks. It is way too early to tell if your pregnant by "symptoms". Sounds to me like you maybe coming down with a cold.
Secondly, the symptoms you have are not caused by early pregnancy. If you still have 2 weeks until your period comes, then it's defiantly too early for pregnancy symptoms to start. Sorry.
Maybe? If you're testing too early, the pregnancy hormone may not be showing up yet. Women can spot all sorts of colors in early pregnancy; it's normal and just makes life more confusing.
I can get nasty nausea and dizziness with PMS. Most women don't get morning sickness till they're about six weeks. (I've had a queasy stomach earlier than that though.)
Can you talk a little more about the timing?
So, the past couple of weeks, i have been experiencing things that could either be a sign of pms or pregnancy, but they are leaning enough on the pregnancy side to have me a little paranoid until i find out for sure. I'm 20 and recently married, my husband and i are not trying to be pregnant right now, but it obviously could happen anyway. I definitely ovulated this month; i know because i get really bad ovulation cramps (yeah, weird).
