there definatley are signs of pregnancy in the first week for some women. i have had two pregnancies and the test was only to assure me that i was right. i feel sick but can't puke, very dizzy and get really bad headaches. i also get diarhea cramping and bloating. some people can actually tell days after conception. a few days after that starts breast tenderness and by that time its almost time for my period. so if you have those symptoms or even just a feeling wait until the day after your period is supposed to start and take a test. if you can't afford the test (they are very cheap at walmart) then go to your city's health department or look up Birthright in the phonebook they are a great organization that gives free pregnancy tests to women and baby supplies to pregnant women or call 1-800-550-4900 they will connect you to the birthright nearest you.

Answer: THERE ARE NO NOTICABLE SYMPTONS IN THE FIRST WEEK OF PREGNANCY!


of course there aren't any in the first week because the first week of pregnancy is actually the first seven days of a woman's menstrual cycle, a women is not even really pregnant in the first seven days. (note: a woman's menstrual cycle begins on the first day of her period) i am pregnant and i really began having symptoms in the "second" week of pregnancy. i put it in quotes cuz the second week is really the first week after conception. any way in the "second" week i started having heart burn. it wasn't too bad but i was wondering why was alll of a sudden having heartburn when i never had that problem b4. next i started noticing a heavier discharge coming form my vagina. i knew it wasn't an STD because it wasn't yellow or green, it didnt stink, nor was it cottage cheesy. it was my regualr discharge, just heavier. next the heartburn turned in to acid reflux and i was always nauseated, with no vomitting. next i noticed that my nipples had gotten a lil darker and my left breast had a lil bit of water leaking out of it. and, my nose was always running and my mouth always had more saliva than normal, kinda like my mouth was always watering. now im almost in my "fourth" week and i still have all thses symptoms but now they are more intense. all my urine tests came back negative maybe cuz its too early. but I KNOW IM PREGNANT. i have a blood pregnancy test scheduled for tomorrow morning.

question: can you still be pregnant but have two regular periods and pms symptoms before each of those periods? Also could the pms symptoms actually be symptoms for pregnancy?

QUESTION: can you be pregnant and still have your period, cuz my period lasted two days longer than usual and was light at the beginning and light in the end also...does that mean anything?

Question: i bled lighty after getting fingered could that be cuz he cut me or because i'm pregnant?

I have an Inregular period. Before having sex I was spotting at little which is normal for me. While having sex at the end there was blood around a little. I have been feeling like I am going to vomit, and frquent urination, and abdominal tenderness at the end of urination. and the day after sex i did not bleed,but the next day i did bleed and now i am spotting a bit.

it have been 2 weeks since I had sex with my bf and we did not use anything and I haven't had my period in 2 1/2 weeks could I be pregnant. I have been feel tired hungry, and I have been having cramps for the last 4 days. At night I can't sleep because my stomach is cramping is there a posiblity that I might be pregnant.

I am a little over two weeks pregnant (blood test confirmed) and I am having the following symptoms, although I know each woman and pregnancy is different: tender nipples, cramping/aching across my lower back and abdomin, slight twinges in about the area of my ovaries, I constantly feel wet, and I am peeing all the time. I have not had any spotting at all or nausea!

I was on depo for almost two years and I've been off it for about 5 months now. My b/f and I have been having sex and I wasn't worried about it because I was under the assumption that it took AT LEAST 12-18 months to become fertile and pregnant. I am supposed to start my period tomorrow but I was just wondering how worried I should be and if anyone has some statistics for me.


Cindy - August 29th, 2004 12:04 AM

I've had no signs of getting ready to start my period but I've been peeing alot and eating alot and I've felt nausous alot too...and I was thinking of getting pregnancy test tomorrow...are those signs of pregnancy and is it too early to get a pregnancy test? *Please Help*
