Right, this question is for us females. It might be a bit TMI. Just a warning.
My period is due next week. However, it "came" this past Tuesday, a full week early. When I say "came", I mean it's barely there, almost non-existant.
I've had this headache for most of the week. My legs keep cramping up at night. I have no interest in food. Only slightly queasy, but not much. Today, while travelling to work I got a little dizzy.
I'm no rocket scientist, but these symptoms seem suspect to me. I took a home pg test, and it was negative. This may be just me overreacting. Or not. Before I start to voice my concerns to DH, I want the opinion of you ladies first. Could I be......?

P.S.- We aren't TTC, but we aren't against it either. It would be a shocker, though.

What is TTC? I wouldn’t jump the gun because with a woman’s body you never know. I do know that a home pregnancy test would probably yield negative results this early even if you are pregnant. I would wait another week before taking a test.

TTC= trying to conceive. Got that from some other forum. Okay, I will do that. I don't want to jump the gun either, that's why I haven't gone to hubby with this. I'll keep it to myself for a bit. Thanks!

If you are trying, try the rhythm method. Every other day when you ovulate. You can buy sticks at the store to tell you when you are if you do not know. Good Luck.

No, we aren't really trying. We planned to have kids within the next 1-2 years. I'm split, on one side the time isn't right, on the other hand, I would like a baby. Ah well, que sera, sera.

You could be pregnant or very stressed out and it's effecting your body. Kinda different circumstance but my husband got a vasectomy and I was feeling those same symptoms I thought it was due to stress and my ulcer was flaring up. My gf said I think your pregnant took a pregnancy test and there behold I was preggers. Also how much blood was there if it was lil pink or you actually had light bleeding it could just be stress. I say try another test in 2 weeks or so.
Good luck

Pregnancy hadn't even crossed my mind until I spoke to my mother. I don't think I'm stressed, the wedding's over! No more stress over that. My job is the most uneventful place ever. The dizzziness is what's bothering me the most. That never happens to me. DH has been asking questions all day, I think he suspects something. Regardless, it's probably too early to tell, my period isn't technically due until next week. We'll see.

No my dear it sounds like you are pregnant..........your early bleed was breakthrough bleeding. The fetus implanting itself in your uterus. Keep watching........but I suspect you are preggo.

Yes, this is a prego symptom. lol You know your body best. If you've been under stress or stressing yourself too much, this could be the result. If not, then consider taking a pregnancy test. Also, if your period is religiously always on time...then you could have a little one in the making.

Are you tired also? With my DD, my cycle came on time but it was very light (spotting) and I was super tired.
I would suggest waiting about a week and then taking another preg test. Take the test early in the morning when you FIRST get up to pee (TMI-LOL).

Yeah, I feel better today, and my appetite is kind of back. But I'll take a test next week. I took one yesterday and it was negative, but it's probably too early. What a mess! (Not really, but not expected). I kind of wanted to enjoy married life a bit before we have kids. Plus our honeymoon is the 25th (Palm Beach, FL) and I wanted to get my Jose Cuervo on. Oh well, that's life. Ladies, if it turns out that I AM preggo, please believe I will be asking questions of ALL OF YOU DAILY. Lol. Thanks everyone.
