Ermm... so...

[Fiction]

Well basically. A few weeks ago i noticed my stomach was kinda bloated... I just assumed it was because my period was due. During this time I had sex, and my period came late. Recently, about 2-3 weeks after having sex my stomach got more bloated and also painful. I also feel sick pretty much constantly.
Does this sound like pregnancy... or not? :/ If not what else could it be?

There's all sorts that it could be; an infection somewhere in your digestive system, a hormonal problem, irritated / inflamed parts of your reproductive system or it could be pregnancy.

Best thing to do is to pop along to your GP and ask for a pregnancy test to be performed. If you don't want to see your GP straight away, a good idea would be to try a home testing kit to very roughly rule out the possibility of pregnancy.

Remember though, you don't know what it is yet so don't go into a panic. Just keep calm and ultimately go see your doc as they will be able to test for a lot more than you can.

Thankyou, I think I might get a home testing kit at the weekend and see if that shows up anything.

Just to add to the confusion... I noticed i had more saliva than normal, looked it up and apparently that's a sign of pregnancy.

It is highly unlikely you are pregnant if you had a period as the egg is broken down days before the actual menstruation but nevertheless it is still possible so the best advice to give is just repeating what David said and take a pregancy test.
Let us know....if you want...or don't... w/e

I'd take a test. You can still have something like a period if you've just gotten pregnant.

Are you on birth control, and do you guys use a condom? Something tells me you're not if youi're asking.
I'd suggest both for future reference (isn't birth control free on nhs?)

keep us posted kathy

Kathy now thinks she may have Glandular Fever because all her glands are swollen, she's shaky and has broken out in a fever :P
All of her symptoms that she told me are quite characteristic of Glandular Fever and she thinks it could be that.

Thanks for giving everyone an update on me Symone :P
Yeah we use condoms but not birth control and yes Kyle it is free on the NHS.
I don't think i'm pregnant since the Nausea has gone now and as Symone said, i've got a virus whatever this virus is. I've had cold and fluey symptoms and i've asked my mum and she seems to think it's all just a virus :P
However, if my next period doesn't come on time I will take a test but it should be fine :)

Use both, then you won't have these scares :P
