Trying to Get Pregnant

Early Signs? Could I Be Pregnant?

My husband and I had unprotected sex on August 27-31 (some days twice a day.) Those days were my ovulation days, also. I have been experiencing some cramping, dizziness, and headaches as well as some breast soreness and an occasional 'tingly' feeling. I have read that a lot of women know within days that they are pregnant since they are so in tune with their bodies. Do you think I could be? I am not on any form of birth control.

  • This is not going to go over well girlfriend. I would insert the customary popcorn gif but I am mobile bumping.

    Have you been charting anything to know that was your FW?  Random symptoms mean nothing to us.  If you think you're pregnant take a test.
    Son: Jackson, 11/02/06, stillborn due to PPROM and IUGR. Over the next ten years we had 9 miscarriages from 8-14 weeks. On May 18, 2016 my daughter, Ridley, was born. We're OADNBC.

  • Or, you're impregnated with a vampire-human hybrid child.

  • Uh oh. I highly suggest you read the newbie blog and edit your OP in the form of a intro or some other question that is not "am I pregnant?"

    I just had brisket for breakfast, I think I'm pregnant. Could I be? Can someone put their ute goggles on and check me out? Maybe hurry up too because there's a mimosa calling my name.
    OMG!  You're definitely KTFU!  No mimosas for you!  I can take that off your hands for you, though.  I mean, I wouldn't want a good mimosa to go to waste or anything...

  • It could be the progesterone kicking into high gear, giving you all of those symptoms. It also sounds like you don't know when you O'd since you gave a range of dates.

  • Also, OP. You don't have ovulation days, you ovulate only once.

    Just what I was gonna say. OP, you obviously don't even know when you ovulated, otherwise you wouldn't have given us a range of 5 days.
  • My favorite posts are the ones that start with "My H and I had sex on [insert series of dates]"
    It's always downhill from there... guaranteed entertainment.

  • On average it can take at least a week or more for implantation to occur once the egg has been fertilized. Also, how are you tracking your fertile window? Unless you're temping/charting BBT to confirm O, you don't even know if you did O in that time.

    That said, if you had unprotected sex, and are not on contraceptives, that does increase the chances of getting pregnant. Meaning you could be, you could not be. The only way to know, is wait a week or so and test.

  • Yes, you could be. Or not.

    I get headaches and other symptoms like that around when I'm ovulating. Maybe you ovulated a few days late and that's what you are feeling.
