im 17 weeks pregnant and really happy. I have told everyone and im looking forward to being a mother, my partner is also very excited! Im 21 and have managed to afford a mortgage on my partners salary so we are in a good situation. My 17 year old cousin suddenly said she was trying for a baby and had done test and it was neg so she took another and it was inconclusive, she says that she hasnt had a period and went to docs they said IF shes pregnant shes no more than 2 weeks as too early to test but shes constantly complaining of sickness EVERYTHING, At 2 weeks im sure she wouldnt have any symptoms but it really annoys me as everytime i talk to someone about being pregnant as i have quite a big bump, she butts in about her pregnancy, she doesnt even know shes pregnant!!!

She's jealous... Don't let that get to you though... It's annoying yes I know... But all that is just stress on you and the baby... Ugh!!! People!!! I also have a friend who is ahead of me by like 2-3 weeks and she wanted a boy... Well she's having a girl... Her pregnancy is NOT from her husband... He had a vasectomy years ago... and she isn't even with her baby's daddy... She's going around telling people that I'm jealous of her pregnancy??? How is that possible??? I live with my baby's daddy, I'm having a boy and I have nothing to envy her for... I think it's the other way around... Push it aside girl... There is always gonna be people like that and worse!!! Worry about you and your baby... Don't waste your time and energy on her...

lol, I'm sure that can get quite annoying. Some women do feel pregnancy symptoms at 2 weeks, although it is rare. She may be a bit jealous of you and is convincing herself that she is pregnant which could be causing her body to make her mind think she is having symptoms. It also could be the cause of her missed period. I wouldn't get too worked up over it, you know YOU are pregnant and have something to show for it. Just focus on that! If she does talk about her "pregnancy" just smile and nod.

I did have symptoms right away (like, 3 days later right away) but it sounds like your cousin is not pregnant...and it's jealousy. At 17, why would she want to be pregnant? Is she doing poorly in school? Does she have dreams for the future? Do her parents pay attention to her? Rather than getting annoyed, I think you should wait until she has a conclusive negative and then really involve her in your pregnancy. Make her feel special...and try to make her feel good about herself. Seventeen is too young to want to be a mother...but a good age to want to be something great with her life.

Why on earth would a 17 year old be trying to get pregnant? Be happy that you are secure and can afford your new baby. I'm sure she is just jealous and wants attention but probably doesnt realize that she will be responsible for this little baby for the next 18 years. Her parents need to be talking with her about her needs and self image.

The concern is a 17 y/o wanting and trying to get pregnant not about her stealing the "limelight" from you, congrats to you on the baby and get your 17 y/o cousin bc and tell her your pregnancy is terrible(even if its not) bein pregnant at 17 is not glamorous or cute or fun and its even less so being a 17 y/o mom

Why is she trying for a baby at 17? If it happens, that's one thing, but actually trying?
Anyways, her head could have a lot to do with it. If she thinks she's having morning sickness and sore boobs, then her body is going to respond that way.
If she's an understanding person just tell her that you'd really appreciate it if she wouldn't jump into the middle of your conversations because it's rude.
If she's not an understanding person, tell her mom? I'm not really sure how to go about that one.

Kind of like you saying you have a big bump when your baby is 5 inches long and weighs 4 ounces? We all exaggerate in pregnancy! It is very possible for her to have pregnancy symptoms even if she is only a couple weeks pregnant.
Why not instead of whining be there for her, she is your blood cousin after all.

Two weeks as in since conception? Or since last period?
I'm about two and a half weeks since conception, and I have headache, nausea, and some cramping (and have had headache for most of that time and nausea about half). No, it's not PMS, because I have tested positive with a urine test, and two and a half weeks is longer than my luteal phase anyway.
So, what's my point? I find it very offensive that you would think that you are more important than me just because you have been pregnant for longer than I have. I also wouldn't butt in in person (this may be considered butting in in your book because this is not what you want to hear).

First I will say congrats on your pregnancy.
Next, i will say thank you for spelling awkward corerctly.
And lastly, you can either just laugh at her in your head because she deluding herself, or, put her on the spot and say something to the effect of " oh, you are pregnant? Becuase I thought you just told me that you took a pregnancy test and it came out negative" and see how she responds
I think i would just smugly smile and know in my head that i was much more pregnant than her.
