I Don’t Feel Pregnant, Am I Really?

Marcie Jones Leave a Comment

my last period was on Jan 22. i did a home test on Feb 8. it was negative. on Feb 15 i noticed a little dark brownish color blood, i thought it was my period stating early. on Feb 16 a little more blood. all this time my breast had a tingling burning sensation. on Feb 22 i did another test, it was positive. my problem is some times i don’t feel pregnant. i have little cramp in my lower abdomen. my back hurts a little. am i really pregnant?”

If a pregnancy test says you’re pregnant, 99.9 percent of the time, it’s telling you the truth. False positives on pregnancy tests are extremely rare. Are you reading the result correctly? (If you’re not completely sure that you’re reading it right, buy another brand of test and try again…) Have you been taking any fertility drugs that your doctor has told you might cause a positive result? If the answer’s no to these questions, well, congratulations! You’re pregnant, and your symptoms are classic- spotting, an achy lower half and hyper-sensitive nipples. Don’t worry about not feeling pregnant every minute of every day. Your embryo is not even an inch long and your hormones are only now starting to kick into gear. It may not be until the last couple of months that your pregnancy becomes really obvious to everyone else and yourself.
