Is it too early to tell??

Hi I'm 21 yrs old and confused. My last period started the 11th October, therefore I'm due my next one on 8th November. However, as I'm not on the pill and my bf and I didn't use a condom is it possible that I am pregnant? When looking up different pregnancy sites one showed me that I was very fertile on the 24-25th October, the same time I was with my boyfriend. Is it too early to take a pregnancy test? I really need to know. Please help me.

You know, I am having the same excat situation. I actually took THREE test and they all came out postivie. I thought it would be to early to tell since the my period was just on the 11th as well. The only reason I took any test at all was because my boyfriends cat was all over me, and I heard an old wise tell that said children and animals are were attached to you when you are pregnant. Saturady I had my first hot flash. I am making an appointment to be seen by my doctor this week.

I haven't really experienced any symptons apart from tender breasts which I get sometimes coming up to my period. I'm my next period this Saturday and don't know whether to wait and see if its late before doing a test or do one tonight. I'm really confused.

Well, the brands I took were FactPlus and Clear Blue (the plus and minus). Worrying can delay your cycle too. For peace of mind just take a test.

Hi,

Me again, I'm really anxious to here from people on what I should do. IO've had period like pains all day but very mild ones and my pd isn't due until Saturday. Are these signs of Pregnancy?? I don't know much bout how to tell as I've never been pregnant before so any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi!! I have had some similar accidents in the past, and actually kind of dealing with one now. But...as for your situation, I would say don't freak out cuz it will drive you insane. My period is due on the 12th. You really shouldn't experience any symptoms for a little while longer. Although I have known people to know as soon as they get pregnant. Just keep an open mind with it. Cuz it could very well be nothing to worry about.

take care, and good luck

I'm glad you've decided to take a pregnancy test, I think what ever the result it would be better knowing. However, If I were you I would take the test first thing in the morning. These tests measure how much hcg is in your urine, and since your first morning your is more concentrated (more hcg) you have a better chance of getting an accurate result. Either way let us know!!
