Pregnant!?!??!?

Question

It's been about 7 days now, and I'm becoming concerned with my body and what it's doing.
I've never had sex, but my boyfriend and I got a little close a few weeks ago. We both had underwear on, so I don't see how I could be pregnant, but I think the guilt's overcoming me and I'm all worried now.
My PROBLEM is that I'm in the middle of my cycle, around hte time I ovulate, but I feel different than the other times I've ovulated. I've had hard ovulations before, but I'm not sure what this is.
I am having abdomen flutters, which were pretty bad a few days ago, I had a little back pain and tiredness. I also felt a little nauseous, but I've never thrown up. These symptoms are also on and off.
Could I be making myself have pregnancy symptoms? My period isn't for a few more weeks, so I really have no idea what I should do!
Any advice that you could give me would be great!
And please don't tell me I'm stupid for thinking I'm pregnant.

Answer 1

Ok first off- calm down. It's definitely ok. Second off- your body really doesn't start feeling "pregnancy symptoms" until a few weeks AFTER you concieve.
The egg (if fertilized) can take 7-10 days to implant, and then Hcg (the pregnancy hormone that allows you to start feeling those symptoms) is released. Then it takes several more days or even a few weeks before you start to "feel" pregnant. Flutters at this stage are psychosomatic- meaning that you are imagining them. Most first time mommies don't feel "flutters" until 14-16 weeks after conception.
Just try to relax. If you stress yourself, you'll start feeling symptoms that don't exist. (and your not stupid, just naive and scared!)

Answer 2

You'll more than likely start feeling pregnancy symptoms in about 4-6 more weeks, not *while* you're ovulating. Freaking yourself out (over stressing) can very possibly do 1 of 2 "strange" things to yourself: either you stress out SO badly that your body "flushes it's system" and you have an early period to prevent you from having children in the environment you're [putting yourself] in; OR you can actually delay your period because your body is "resetting itself" and - if done at a certain time in your cycle - it will just "delay" instead of "flush."

Both situations have happened to me and that's how my ob/gyn explained them to me.

As a side note, are you telling your partner about this situation and how it's affecting you? Being this scared about the near-impossible idea of maybe being pregnant means you really shouldn't be having sex... in any way, shape or form, aparently.

Answer 3

Don't feel stupid for feeling this way. I had a similar experience when I was in my early 20's and I was freaked out. A lot of the symptioms you may be experiencing could be brought on by your anxiety about this. I typically feel back pain and fatigue right before and right in the beginning of my period.

I'm not a doctor, but I'm 99.99999999% sure you're not pregnant, just having some anxiety about it.

Answer 4

Sounds like you just had your period recently if your not due again for a few more weeks so most likely you are fine.

The body can trick itself into thinking its pregnant and you feel actual symptoms.

But for the future even if you have your underwear on its a good idea for him to wear a condom if your going to be getting that close.

Good luck!!!

Answer 5

You are worrying yourself sick! I do not think you are pregnant. This is, however, just what you needed to show you that you are not ready to be having sex. If you are this panicked over the remote possibility of being pregnant then you are definitely not ready for the consequences of having sex. Tell your bf how scared this made you and let him know you two need to slow it down a bit. Trust me, wait until you're ready to have sex (when you can support yourself and a baby), it will be so worth it.

Answer 6

Well personally I do not think you are pregnant. I think you are just worried and are making yourself experience pregnancy symptoms. Just wait it out. If your period does not start test a couple weeks later and you will know one way or the other.

Answer 7

Probably not pregnant. You say you're ovulating now? Now's when you can get pregnant. Might want to lay off the boyfriend (no pun intended) if you don't want to have these same worries next month.

Answer 8

did you know you can think your self to be pregnant, were your boobs will even produce milk in you just thinking and wishing that your body changes with the hormones your sending, i don't think it likely that you are pregnant if you din't actually have sex, you might just be thinking that you and your bf were getting close that you would like something like this to happen, don't worry, always play it safe tho x

Answer 9

Whatever details u have provided its impossible that u are pregnant.

The symptoms u have noted may be due to PMS.

If at all u are not convinced ask ur doctor.

Answer 10

There is no way you are pregnant if you haven't had sex. And even if you were, it is way too early for symptoms.
