I'm having a lot of anxiety over whether or not I am pregnant.....Let me first say that my periods have never been regular, my cycle can go up to 40 days or more, so I never really know when Im ovulating unless I pay $25 for one of those tests. On average, my cycle is AROUND 38 days. This also causes confusion as to WHEN I am supposed to take a pregnancy test because all the test say to take them day after missed period but I never know when that is.....I took a test yesterday (supposed to be an early response one) and it came back negative....if I take it tomorrow or in a couple of days will it make a difference???????
Some background info:
- My last period started AROUND April 20th, 2012....the day we tried to conceive was May 13th, 2012 (today is May 24th).....According to websites that helped me calculate ovulation with an irregular period, it is very likely I was ovulating then.
- Ive looked up online to see if anyones had symptoms so early on in pregnancy and the majority of women say they feel fuzzy in their uterus, their boobs get sore, they have lots of gas, and theyre extremely tired. I do feel very heavy and bloated for the past week, my boobs started getting sore yesterday, I have had a lot of gas and I have been EXTREMELY tired.......but arent these all symptoms we experience before periods????? How am I supposed to know the difference????
- Ive been having unprotected sex at least 3x a week (pull-out method) for almost a year and never been pregnant, does that mean im not fertile????
- Ive been moody lately, but i dont know if its the anxiety of the whole situation thats making me this way or if its hormones
Please help me!! When am i supposed to take a pregancy test with an irregular period and does one day make a difference???????
