Stress and worry about being pregnant can actually cause you to have symptoms of pregnancy! If the test was negative, you're not pregnant. There are other health problems that can cause you to gain weight and pee a lot. You should probably see a doctor about those symptoms just in case.

Stress can even make your period stop for months on end. You are not pregnant, stop worrying. Your breasts usually do get a little larger during your period anyway. And the peeing a lot thing is probably just in your mind. You don't really pee that much until your uterus starts growing within the 2nd or 3rd month of pregnancy. I'm pregnant, and thats whats happening. Don't worry. Just stop having sex if worrying about pregnancy causes you this much grief. Or at least go on the pill, and use a condom. Please.

Relax! You are completely stressing. Which is probably why your period was different. Take a pregnancy test, even though you don't need to just to reassure yourself. You are so worried it's causing 'symptoms'. And you don't get symptoms of pregnancy for at LEAST 10 days after you conceive so the next day you wouldn't have 'gas' or anything else. I suggest you don't have sex until you can handle the consquences.

Your body can go through a lot of changes when you've had sex for the first time. The fact that you are having these symptoms can be a result of stress like everyone has says. Just relax a bit. If the doctors say that you aren't pregnant and you use protection then chances are you aren't. Good luck to you.

I think it sounds more like stress. I dont think you would have gained 5 pounds because of pregnancy yet, that usually doesnt happen for a couple of months depending on the person. If you started your period, you probably arent pregnant, but if you dont start next time, take a preg test. Hope this helps.

Stress can cause you to be late. And if you are worried about being pregnant, did you know that if you think about something and stress about it, it can cause changes with your body? If you are in the mind frame that you are or could be pregnant, your brain responds to that by acting as if you are pregnant even if you really are not. Try to relax. Keep track of you cycle and if you see that you are more than one week late. Then I would seek medical attention. Also, other medical issues could cause you to become late. Make sure you see your doctor regularly.

You sound stressed out. This sometimes causes people to eat way more than normal. This could be a cause of the weight gain...plus if your drinking lots of fluids this would cause you to urinate more frequently. If it makes you feel better buy another pregnancy test! To know for sure. But if you young it's not that uncommon for the flow of your period to change sometimes...from light to heavy...most likely it's NOT a sign of you being pregnant...but like I said take another test if it makes you feel better.

Could be stress. If you've gained 5 lbs already then it's probably stress eating and not pregnancy. Average weight gain during the whole first trimester is 0-5 lbs.

Go to the store and get a test. You can even buy them at the dollar store for goodness sake!
But use this time as God's reality check. If you are going to have sex, you may very well get pregnant. Look at all the billions of people on this planet, that's how every one of them got here.
If you are not ready to get pregnant, wait.
If you must do it now, get on the PILL. If you are not ready to talk to someone about the pill, then how are you going to say youre having a child?
