is after 3 weeks.. to early to be having possible preg signs?

Question

So heres the thing. for a few days now (around 3 weeks after) ive been having cramps and feeling nauses. I thought i was just hungry or needed a good bathroom break, (embarrassing.) But nothing seemed to ease my pain. Its not a HUGE amount of pain, but its there and wont go away. Last night i was up from 3-8 feeling nauses as though i needed to puke. Even tho never ended up puking. but when i woke back up. i was fine. however later i got little cramps again and i notice that my breats have some what swollen. my period isnt for a few days, but im curious. is it possible that i can be preggie? can i be getting signs this early? and what are other signs, in case ive gotten them and just over looked it.

Answer 1

Hi Honey, here are some symptoms of pregnancy, check them and then see your doctor

Tender, swollen breasts
One of the early signs of pregnancy is sensitive, sore breasts caused by increasing levels of hormones. The soreness may feel like an exaggerated version of how your breasts feel before your period. Your discomfort should diminish significantly after the first trimester, as your body adjusts to the hormonal changes.

Fatigue
Feeling tired all of a sudden? No, make that exhausted. No one knows for sure what causes early pregnancy fatigue, but it's possible that rapidly increasing levels of the hormone progesterone are contributing to your sleepiness.

You should start to feel more energetic once you hit your second trimester, although fatigue usually returns late in pregnancy when you're carrying around a lot more weight and some of the common discomforts of pregnancy make it more difficult to get a good night's sleep

Nausea or vomiting
If you're like most women, morning sickness won't hit until about a month after conception. (A lucky few escape it altogether.) But some women do start to feel queasy a bit earlier. And not just in the morning, either — pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting can be a problem morning, noon, or night.

About half of women with nausea feel complete relief by the beginning of the second trimester. For most others it takes another month or so for the queasiness to ease up.

Increased sensitivity to odors
If you're newly pregnant, it's not uncommon to feel repelled by the smell of a bologna sandwich or cup of coffee and for certain aromas to trigger your gag reflex. Though no one knows for sure, this may be a side effect of rapidly increasing amounts of estrogen in your system. You may also find that certain foods you used to enjoy are suddenly completely repulsive to you.

Abdominal bloating
Hormonal changes in early pregnancy may leave you feeling bloated, similar to the feeling some women have just before their period arrives. That's why your clothes may feel snugger than usual at the waistline, even early on when your uterus is still quite small.

Frequent urination
Shortly after you become pregnant, you may find yourself hurrying to the bathroom all the time. Why? Mostly because during pregnancy the amount of blood and other fluids in your body increases, which leads to extra fluid being processed by your kidneys and ending up in your bladder.

This symptom may start as early as six weeks into your first trimester and continue or worsen as your pregnancy progresses and your growing baby exerts more pressure on your bladder.

A missed period
If you're usually pretty regular and your period doesn't arrive on time, you'll probably take a pregnancy test long before you notice any of the above symptoms. But if you're not regular or you're not keeping track of your cycle, nausea and breast tenderness and extra trips to the bathroom may signal pregnancy before you realize you didn't get your period.

Your basal body temperature stays high
If you've been charting your basal body temperature and you see that your temperature has stayed elevated for 18 days in a row, you're probably pregnant

Good luck.

Answer 2

If your period isn't for a couple more days than you aren't even two weeks yet. The fetus would've just barely latched onto your uterus (they spend some time in the fallopian tubes (where conception actually takes place) before they implant in the uterus). Therefore it is HIGHLY unlikely for you to have any true pregnancy symptoms yet. With that being said, I was tired and had sore boobs right before my period was suppose to start, took a pregnancy test, it came back positive and I was still about 3 days away from my missed period. That's apparently a bit of a fluke though and a lot of women have pregnancy type symptoms right before their period anyway...(cramping, loose stools, tender breasts...)all which indicate an impending period...

Answer 3

There are definitely early pregnancy signs. Major ones are fatigue, breast tenderness, headaches, peeing alot more than usual. The cramping could actually be implantation. Implementation should take place within 3-12 days after ovulation. You could very well be pregnant.

Answer 4

I was 3 weeks when I knew FOR SURE that I was pregnant, and had pretty much known since it happened. I know a lot of women would argue this with me, but I knew I was pregnant. At 3 weeks I took a home test and it showed positive. So yes, you could be having symptoms now.

Answer 5

Yeah, some women do start getting signs before their first missed period. Feelings of nausea, tender breasts, and an increase in the need to urinate are good signs of pregnancy.

Answer 6

It's possible. The symptoms are there.

Wait until after your period is due, if you miss...wait a week and test.

Answer 7

I got my last BFP at 8 DPO... and sick the very next day... definitely not too early! Good luck!

Answer 8

nope, not to early, I started feeling "funny" at around three weeks. Good luck

Answer 9

it is very possible. i had symptoms too. we found out at 4 weeks with a home preg test

Answer 10

not likely ..u have to wait 45 days until your last period and then have test.. its not likely you are having signs .. if so its false.. you have to wait
