Has your friend lied about stuff in the past, as in big stuff like this? Past experience is usually great in trying to work out if someone is telling the truth or not. However i think right now you should try and support her whether you believe her or not, because if it is true you may be one of the few people she was able to tell and if she thinks she cant trust her friends to believe her she's unlikely to tell anyone else and get appropriate help. Have you asked her if she has done a pregnancy test? Why not offer to be there when she does one. Or ask her if she has made an appointment at the doctors which she should have. With regard to symptoms, theres nothing too obvious in the first few weeks, the main being morning sickness however not all women will get this. Just be there for her and however it turns out at least you know you were the best friend to her you could be.

Ok I will try. At seven weeks she could've just found out. Has she been to the doctor? A doctor is the only way to tell her true gestation.(weeks of pregnancy) Is she going to pee alot or having morning sickness? (Morning sickness can be anytime of day) Does she plan on keeping the baby? An abortion can be performed up to 20 weeks but most MD's prefer to do it before 16 weeks. Is she eating more or having wierd food cravings? You have to go with what you've been told if there aren't evident symptoms.

Sore boobs! Oh my God, when I first found out I was pregnant (actually a couple weeks before) I couldn't even stand facing the shower head because the water falling on my boobs was excrutiating. That was my main symptom. My nausea didn't start until about week 8 and lasted until about 13 weeks. Other than that I was so tired I could barely function, thank God for my husband, he was such a help!

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 the signs and symptoms of pregnancy is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience signs or symptoms of pregnancy within a week of conception. For other women, pregnancy 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 signs symptoms. If you have been sexually active and experiencing any of the following symptoms it is important to take a pregnancy test.

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.

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.

Why don't you believe her? She might not have any symptoms that are apparent to someone else. You cannot tell by looking at her yet either. Give her support and see what happens.

first of all... if this girl is LYING about being pregnant... then she's got some serious issues! there really is no way you can tell if she is only 7 weeks... just believe her until you have no reason not to.... just be there for her and support her... she really might be pregnant
