Am I fooling Myself??

sarah_bean14 · July 2017

I had sex with my (now ex) boyfriend a few weeks ago (accidentally in my window of ovulation) and since then Ive had been feeling sore in my lower abdomen a few weeks before my period was scheduled to come and my lower back was sore too. Fast forward to now were AF is 4 days late. I have the urge to pee constantly, my lower abs and back still ache and I'm tired ALL the time even if I get a good night's rest which is rare because lately I've been having insomnia too. I've also been constipated which is unusual for me and my breasts hurt and feel heavy. I've been under a lot of stress lately though too. Could this all be stress related? Am I making up the symptoms in my head? I've taken a few pregnancy tests. The dye tests show a very faint line but I'm worried it's an evaporation or indent line. The digital tests come back negative. Should I be getting a BFP soon?? Is it all in my head??

Nobody will be able to tell you if you're pregnant based on symptoms.

My advice: if after a week you're still not sure give your doctor a call. I hope you get it figured out soon.

I believe that digital tests are not as sensitive.

Like @bookishbaker has already stated, we can't tell you if you're pregnant. Try again in a week or call your doctor.

This definitely sounds like a stressful situation, but I don't think stress would cause those types of symptoms generally. A faint line is likely a positive, but you just need to keep taking the same tests, same time each day. No variables. If you are 4 days late, the tests should be positive by now, I would think. They should definitely be getting darker. I also recommend dollar store tests- no stress about money and they really are good!

Do you track your cervical position and discharge?

Asking me is way more accurate then continuing to pee on tests or calling your doctor.

Keep checking and get some rest...you'll know more soon, I'm sure!

Dollar tree has some trusty tests. Hit them up f'sho. They'll be far more helpful than interwebs strangers.

But really, take a pink dye pregnancy test. If it's negative wait a week and take it again. We cannot tell you based on your symptoms if you are pregnant or not.
