I suspect i am about 4-6 weeks pregnant and i have missed a period. It was due on the 18th of March and still hasn't come. The past week i have felt sluggish, got a cold, sore throat and my breasts were swollen and stinging and i have noticable blue lines over them. My backs been killing to and i have had an urge to eat, I've never stopped eating! Has anyone else had any of these symptoms and do you suspect i might be pregnant?
Flu symptoms are a sign of flu, but it sounds as if you are pregnant and have a cold. You lose your appetite with flu.
---Hello.
It is strange I am also having light flu-like symptoms but not accompanied by other flu symptoms . Are you pregnant??
Hey, I've been having a similar problem, i had unprotected sex about 3/4 weeks ago and i took the morning after pill but the past week I've been having a really strong feeling that i may be pregnant, I've had what feels kinda like period cramps, had butterflys for no reason, extremely tired, loss of appetite, feeling dizzy and nauseous ( haven't actually be sick though) been feeling very emotional, I've had a lot of vaginal discharge and now have flu symptoms, I'm not due my period till next week and can't stand this waiting game, I'm terrified I'm pregnant and won't know how to go about telling the guy if i am, we've only been seeing each other for a couple of months, we aren't properly together either, what should i do?
You can have a cold during pregnancy but it is not necessarily a sign of pregnancy. Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include: * missed period * tender/swollen breasts * change in color of the breasts * fatigue Here is a link to a website that will calculate the probability of your pregnancy: http://www.thepregnancytest.com/
A cold is not typically a symptom of pregnancy, though they have many symptoms in common (headaches, odd cravings, throwing up). Symptoms like coughing and sneezing are probably more likely to be a cold or Allergies.
Cramping can be a sign as hormones are changing and growth of the uterus and fetus are taking place, however, the fever isn't typically a sign of pregnancy(though you can get a fever during pregnancy if you are ill.). If you have a fever, you could have some kind of illness or infection. UTI's may cause fevers and cramping as well.
Flu and pregnancy are obviously 2 different situations all tho they do have similar symptoms such as nauseation,vomiting, "hot flashes, no appetite and so forth. If you missed a period or think you may be pregnant take a test or see your doctor. Hope this helps
i assume, feeling moody food cravings are some watch scrubs for the ansews i guess
I'd love to know myself , I got the flu 3 days now and I want to see if im having a baby !!
Pregnant women can suffer from flu due to environment or weather etc. but usually it is not a part of pregnancy symptoms.
Every woman is different. So are her experiences of pregnancy. Not every woman has the same symptoms or even the same symptoms from one pregnancy to the next.
You may have body aches but aching eyes would not be a typical symptom of pregnancy. Usually when it is said that you might have flu-like symptoms with pregnancy, it is referring more to the malaise, unexplained fatigue, and nausea and vomiting (such as with "stomach flu"), not the upper respiratory symptoms like cough, sneeze, sore throat, runny nose, watery eyes and high fever.
Yes it can be, but if you're unsure I suggest paying your doctor a visit. Or getitng a pregnancy test
Some of the symptoms for the flu are the same as the common cold, but there are a few symptoms that you only get with the flu. The most common of these symptoms are a fever of 101 or higher, body and joint aches, and a headache. If you are experiencing these symptoms along with other cold like symptoms we recommend seeing your Dr. about the flu.
What is a timeline for pregnancy symptoms
NO !
You could have either a cold or the flu or both. Or, you could have allergies. See the related questions for information about the symptoms of cold and flu.
If you get pregnancy symptoms, take a pregnancy test
It's not common for poison oak to cause flu symptoms. However, it can cause allergy symptoms which can appear similar to those of a flu.
Flu symptoms are hard to recognize sometimes as they often appear as cold symptoms, however a telling sign of the flu is in the suddenness and intensity of which the symptoms hit you that are often accompanied by weakness and fatigue.
flu like symptoms,red spots on belly,and nausea
Pregnancy symptoms: You're symptoms of pregnancy include: missed period, fatigue, swollen and or tender breasts, mood swings, flu like symptoms, nausea, implantation bleeding (slightly different than a period) etc. Not all women will experience pregnancy symptoms so if you do suspect you might be pregnant, you should take a test rather than relying solely on symptoms. Not all women do experience a missed period during the first few weeks of pregnancy, so again, it is important to use other determinations of pregnancy other than symptoms. It is important for you to confirm your pregnancy as soon as possible to ensure the proper care and safety of you and your new baby. Most of these symptoms will start about two weeks after the first day of your missed period.
