Trying to Conceive #2....LOTS OF QUESTIONS!

[addysmom]

Okay...so my husband and I are planning to TTC #2 in about 6 months....however...I am starting to wonder if I am pregnant now.  

I know this sounds silly....considering the next pregnancy would be #5...(I have only carried one baby to term), However, I have heard that subsequent pregnancies are very different from the previous.  I also heard that after going through a whole pregnancy sometimes you are more susceptible to noticing symptoms earlier.  

Due to the fact that my husband and I are going to try in about 6 months....I have not been on any method of birth control.  (I was on the Mirena IUD, but it fell out...)  We have been using condoms, and the MOST unreliable the withdrawal method.  About 2 1/2 weeks ago...he informed me that he didn't pull out in time.  :(  I laughed it off and said we were probably fine...but for the past 3-4 days I have been EXHAUSTED....nauseated....sore breasts.  Ugh...I feel HORRIBLE!  

Here's the kicker...I was on my period last week.  I know its possible to still get a period...especially if you had JUST conceived....

What would you guys say about this??  I know its most definitely possible that I am pregnant...I am not completely stupid.  :)  Have any of you had similar experiences?  And...is it too early to take a pregnancy test?

I would appreciate any information to you mommies who have been there!!

Thanks!  Yeah....I took a pregnancy test this evening...and its negative...however I am not even due for my period until July 24th.  I am going to go ahead and wait until I am due for a period....and if I still feel like this then I will go ahead and take another test (provided I miss a period)

I am blowing that baby dust!  GOOD LUCK!

My son is 12, i have had friends and relatives have babies and when they went to there 6 week check up they were preggo again.  Sounds like you can be preggo, depending on when your suppose to get your next cycle may make a difference in testing.  But you can always go in to your dr and get your hcg levels drawn and have them do an u/s, especially if your not sure of how many weeks you are.  Not sure if this info helps.  Good luck, keep me posted and blow some baby dust my way:)
