Can you have symptoms of pregnancy before you miss your period?

Question

I have been really tired and dizzy off and on .. I could sleep all day and night.. Not due for my period until the 23rd so I think it is too early to test.. Had unprotected sex (withdraw) 2 days before ovulation and a day after.. I always thought your stomach gets hard when your pregnant mine is soft still.. I think the possibilty is slim but now Im starting to get worried..

Answer 1

Yes you can have symptoms before your "missed period." My first symptom was a super dizzy spell at work. I got really dizzy and faint feeling. I thought I was going to blackout. Several of my female coworkers (one of whom was 2 months pregnant) asked me at that point if I was pregnant. My period was not due for another few days yet and I did not get a positive result until about a week and a half later.

Also, your stomach does not get hard until about half way through your pregnancy.

Good luck!

Answer 2

When I was pregnant with my son I received my first symptoms only a a week after the supposed date of pregnancy. I didn't get a hard tummy til later. That kinda threw me off a few times too. Because sometimes you can have those symptoms and just be in your head or symptoms that come before your menstrual. It'll all show once you are late or if you have your menstrual they will either fade away when you get it or get strong when you miss it. >.< Its crazy.

Answer 3

the hard tummy comes around 6 months. period and pregnancy have the same signs so its hard to tell if you miss your period the end of next week then test it could be either but its too soon to test

Answer 4

You can have symptoms early. My biggest symptom before missing my period was sore and swollen boobs.

Answer 5

I didn't have any symptoms that I recognized. I started feeling sick to my stomach after meals, but I didn't think it was morning sickness until later.

Answer 6

yes you could have symptoms before like:
spotting, tiredness, sore breasts
