    Could I really be pregnant?

    Can't actually remember my last period. I know it was after 28th august. I know it was around the same time as my house mates gf, and she was on hers again last friday.

    I am almost certain that I was about to ovulate around the 24th and 25th of Sept.
    I did the naughties on the 26th.

    My cycles are never regular anyway, so it might be that it just hasn't come yet.

    I had a temp 37.2 yesterday, and 37.0 today.
    I've been quite gassy.
    I've been feeling slightly queasy.
    I've been more tired than usual, and thirsty, my mouth been drying out really fast.
    I've had crampy type feelings for the last 3 days. Not the same, but similar to the kind I get the day before and during AF. But I've never had it more than a day before my period.
    No sign of anything affecting my boobs, but I read that it doesn't affect everyone straight away anyway.

    I've decided to wait until Thursday and test if AF hasn't come. Because I'll have a friend here for moral support. With each passing day I think about it more and more because I'm half hoping to be pregnant.

    Also I could just go out and get a test tomorrow. but i live in a small town, and people talk, and I don't want rumours running the town about me if it turns out I'm not pregnant anyway. But waiting is killing me!!!

    brydz - Thats a hard one. I foud with both my preg my boobs were sore before AF was even due and got no other symptoms until about 6 weeks. I did feel as though AF was on her way with time though... I was certain it was going to be another month of TTC for us, but turned out I was wrong! Everyone is very different and sometimes telling the differece between AF coming and being pg can be really hard. It must be so hard holding out to test, but I completely understand about the small town (although I have never lived in a small town before the inlaws are from a very small town and know everyone else business!), so I wish you all the very best with testing on Thurs. I hope you get the result you are wanting.

    Keep us up to date with it all

    for you.
    I NEVER got the sore boobs with either of my PG's so it's not always a sign but you never know.

    Hope it all works out well and no-one sees you buy a test or starts rumors.. the town i used to live in was like that too.. it sucks big time.

    Is increased heart rate a possible symptom also?
    I am a nurse, and yesterday at work I was fiddling around with the BP machine and my BP was normal but my heart rate was 104 or something.
    It's still up around the 100 mark today.

    Yeah well I NEVER get sore boobs during my periods either. Nor do they get sensitive in any kind of sexual manner (I'm a DD cup) So it could be just how I roll...

    only time will tell.

    Ava's mum, you are due about the same time as one of my besties i think she is due the 16th of Jan ish.
