Is this too early to know?

Question

My LMP was on Aug 30 and my cycle lasts 26 days which would make my next cycle to start on Sept 25. My husband and I have been TTC for a while. As of yesterday Sept 19 my nipples have been VERY sensitive. I had to wear a sports bra today because if material rubs them it really hurts. My beasts themselves hurt too. I can't really decide if some other things I've been noticing are because of something else or not either. Such as hungry more often and acid reflux/indigestion and burping after everything I eat Could this be some early signs?

Answer 1

Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding pregnancy symptoms is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception. For other women, symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy symptoms.

Implantation Bleeding:
Implantation bleeding can be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. About 6-12 days after conception, the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. Some women will experience spotting as well as some cramping.

Other Explanations: Actual menstruation, altered menstruation, changes in birth control pill, infection, or abrasion from intercourse.

Delay/Difference in Menstruation:
A delayed or missed menstruation is the most common pregnancy symptom leading a woman to test for pregnancy. When you become pregnant, your next period should be missed. Many women can bleed while they are pregnant, but typically the bleeding will be shorter or lighter than a normal period. This symptom is commonly explained by other reasons. If you have been sexually active and have missed a period, it is recommended that you take a test: Order my pregnancy test

Other Explanations: Excessive weight gain/loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, ceasing to take the birth control pill, or breast-feeding.

Swollen/Tender Breasts:
Swollen or tender breasts is a pregnancy symptom which may begin as early as 1-2 weeks after conception. Women may notice changes in their breasts; they may be tender to the touch, sore, or swollen.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation (PMS) can also cause your breasts to be swollen or tender.

Fatigue/Tiredness:
Feeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception.

Other Explanations: Stress, exhaustion, depression, common cold or flu, or other illnesses can also leave you feeling tired or fatigued.

Nausea/Morning Sickness:
This well-known pregnancy symptom will often show up between 2-8 weeks after conception. Some women are fortunate to not deal with morning sickness at all, while others will feel nauseous throughout most of their pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Food poisoning, stress, or other stomach disorders can also cause you to feel queasy.

Backaches:
Lower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Impending menstruation, stress, other back problems, and physical or mental strains.

Headaches:
The sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, impending menstruation, eye strain, or other ailments can be the source of frequent or chronic headaches.

Frequent Urination:
Around 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom.

Other Explanations: Urinary tract infection, diabetes, increasing liquid intake, or taking excessive diuretics.

Darkening of Areolas:
If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance unrelated to pregnancy or may be a leftover effect from a previous pregnancy.

Food Cravings:
While you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women will feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Poor diet, lack of a certain nutrient, stress, depression, or impending menstruation.

Answer 2

HI~
I know what its like to be ttc. I had the same situation last month. I even had symptoms that aren't "normally" me. I was even more than a week late. I took a test after waiting 10 long days and the result was negitive, i was upset, but if its not ment to be, so be it. THere is always next month, hehe. Im not saying that you couln't be pregnant, but we both know that there is always that chance. Good luck with everything. Try not to test too soon as this may result in a false answer. I know its really hard to be patient, but hang in there.

Answer 3

I would say wait a couple of days more because sometimes nipple sensitivity can mean the onset of your mensrual cycle. Be patient and if it doesnt start within a couple of days then u should take a test and it might be positive.

Answer 4

It's very possible they could be early symptoms. Symptoms start after implantation and implantation happens 6-12 days after ovulation. You most likely ovulated around sept. 11 and it would be right timing for implantation to have taken place and symptoms to have begun. Good luck!

Answer 5

Best of luck to you. I experienced the same thing as well last month and took sooooooooooooo many test all negative. I thought for sure I was pregnant. And I wasn't. My advice to you is wait until the 24th do take one the tests that give you early results. They're not as accurate.

Answer 6

you could be because those are some signs. you can take a test in a couple more days then that should help! Yet, remember don't get your hopes up because sometimes they will come out neg. and sometimes that may mean that your HCG level may be low. Then just wait a couple of more days and TRY again! BEST WISHES

Answer 7

Well, did you have sex on or around sept. 13th? That is when you were ovulating, so if you conceived then, these would be normal early symptoms. I hope they are :) Take a test on the 25th to let us know! Good luck

Answer 8

It could be symptoms of pregnancy. It could also be your LMP. Might as well wait 5 more days, it is not too long. If you dont have ur LMP by then do the test.

Answer 9

With some tests you can tell up to 5 days prior to your expected period. You might go ahead and test in the next few days- or wait it out if you can to see what happens with your period.
Good luck!!!
