Ok, my fiance is convinced I'm pregnant. I'm starting to be worried. Can someone please tell me its just stress so I can calm down until I take a test in the morning???
I missed my period two weeks ago, I'm peeing (sorry to be gross) every 30 minutes, my breasts are swollen and very sore, I'm queasy every afternoon, I'm light headed, my fingers are slightly swollen, I've gained 5lbs in the last two weeks, and I'm an emotional mess (VERY much NOT normal). Can someone please just help me not freak out? My fiance had a vasectomy years ago, so while we were planning to have things reconnected to have kids, this is very unexpected. Our wedding is in September. AAAAHHHHHHHH! :-) I'm really freaking out here!!

Hi!

Thanks for posting! I'm taking the test tomorrow 6/24 morning. I've not been drinking more water or anything. I was supposed to start on 6/9. Last one was 5/9.

I DO want it, but we are really not prepared for this one! We are in the middle of so much with the wedding, building a house, etc. He just started a new job and I just started a new business...so things are still a little shakey money wise. He has 3 children from a previous marriage and is VERY excited about the possibility. I'm just worried, my family has 4 generations of either twins or complicated, high risk pregnancies...and his is heavy on the twins as well.

Yes, it could be stress but this seems to me that you are pregnant. If you just take a test then your worries could be over. If you are....that is great! You are gonna have a great new little person in your life. I know it can be really stressful with the wedding but don't worry.

no matter what the out come is, remember that everything happens for a reason. I know with all the plans you are doing now didn't really include being preg, but if you are you will get through it just fine. Anyone that can plan a wedding and stay sane is a strong women. I just about lost it when i was planning mine. The wedding is a great celebration of your love but a baby celebrates it everyday of your lives. Good luck and keep us posted we are waiting.
