Pregnancy discomforts or not?

Hi everyone,

My boyfriend and I are trying to conceive. My period was from Feb 13 to 18 this month. After that, during the week of the 22nd, we had unprotected sex 3 times. Since then I've had a lot of symptoms: it started with nausea, womb pain, and trouble sleeping because of my stomach. Last Saturday, Feb 27, I suddenly had severe period-like pain in my back and belly. And I've been emotional for the past 2 days. On Monday, March 1, I went to the doctor to check my urine just in case it was a bladder infection, but that was ruled out. I found the symptoms strange because I'd never experienced them before, and I think it's all happening way too fast if I'm pregnant. Meanwhile, I did a test this morning and it was negative. I should get my period at the end of next week. But my question is: do you recognize these symptoms? They keep coming and going for me. Of course, it could also be something other than pregnancy.

    Hi, it really seems too early for pregnancy symptoms.
    You probably ovulated around the 27th. Some feel it, others don't.
    I always felt it, and it wasn't fun. A very heavy pressure in my lower belly, and if I sat down too quickly, I'd get sharp stabs down there. Also a very bloated feeling. I also felt like the pressure eased a bit after I peed.

    Thanks a lot mamavan2meiden for your reply,
    I've never felt ovulation before, but I felt it again today, though less intensely.
    I'll wait a few more days before testing again. Hopefully, there'll be clarity by the end of the week anyway.
    As for urination, I don't notice much except that I have to go more often.

    Hi!
    It could be possible. My period was from Feb 14-18. I ovulated around Feb 25 and afterwards I had persistent symptoms. Normally my sore breasts go away after ovulation, but they stayed and got worse and worse... I got visible veins, bad sleep, cramps, and a bloated feeling in the week after ovulation. My breasts are only getting more painful now... So I tested at 6 days past ovulation (DPO), very faint positive, and it's only getting stronger now. My period is due on Friday.

    @A. But aren't you already further along in your pregnancy? Because in the "newcomers group" topic it says your due date is October 22nd, or are there two ladies with the same name?

    That's what I'm thinking then, I'm no longer pregnant! ????

    @anoniem oh yeah, I see it, but it's quite a coincidence

    @A. Nice to hear that there's some relatability for you.
    My due date is tomorrow, but I did an early test yesterday with a sensitest and there was a very faint second line, so it's still a bit suspenseful.
    Nice that your positive test is only getting clearer! Congratulations in advance!????

    It's definitely positive, and that confirms why I haven't been feeling well...
