    Pregnant at the wrong time

    I don't really know where to start. First of all I should mention that I am young. I have just started training for a life long dream career as a pilot, I am half way through the course and fear that I may have fallen pregnant. It is the wrong time for me and i feel i would not have support from family and friends. Just talking to anyone out there would be amazing..
    I was careless and missed a couple pills last month. I had a very light AF but not like normal.
    I then felt very sick for a couple days with extreme tiredness.
    I am getting frequent headaches, not too painful but annoying!
    I havent been sleeping but i think maybe that is due to stress.
    My body temp is up slightly and just today i have started to get lower back pain and a weird niggling feeling in my lower abdomen which i have seen some women talk about,
    Im also gassy and constantly hungry.
    However i do not have sore breasts or pee a lot.
    Please can someone give me their opinion as i worry maybe im working myself up over symptoms which could be anything, as this all seems very soon to be pregnancy!
    Also do you think its too early to take a test, i think its been about 2 and a half weeks Thank you

    Hey Flicka

    If you think it's been around 2 and half weeks since you may have conceived then grab a test as it should give you an answer by now.

    All the best hunny. And remember, even if things happen that don't seem to fit into our own plans, things definitely happen for a reason.. so try and be as open as possible to these unexpected twists and turns!

    Good luck, I no things defianalty dont always go to plan. I had my first DS when I was19 and my DP was 17! and that is very young. I Couldnt tell anyone because I thought that there would be no support for me either, But after they found out and had the time to adjust to the situation, they supported me, especially my mum who I couldnt have done it without. Now is is 7 years on my partner and I are still together and we have a 3yr old DS aswell.
    I hope it goes how you want

    So, i have taken a test and it came though as negative. I still feel the way i have been the last couple days and i have had some spotting. Could it just be that its too early or are these symptoms of something else?

    Hi there.

    I would say take another test in 2-3 days and if it's neg again and you still feel the same way, go to the doctor. You can get a blood test and then know for sure if your pregnant or not. If not then they'll investigate it. Goodluck.

    If you missed pills the sometimes your body can display symptoms like you described, which can be mistaken for PG. I missed a few in my time so I can empathise, especially with the headache and tender tummy.

    If you have tested -ve after your period was due then I think it's safe to say you're not. Give it another week and test again to be sure.
