Early pregnancy symptoms - July 25th 2011, 11:18 PM

As a general question for my friend, the internet gives an extensive list of early pregnancy symptoms.
However, the internet says these symptoms are not unique to pregnancy. My question is, what else could my friend be going though?

It could anything, from a cold or the flu. Or period symptoms. Or, she is putting her mind in a state that thinks it's pregnant, leading to a hysterical pregnancy. If you're friend is truly worried, assure her that she needs to take a pregnancy test or to see a doctor. It's the only way to know for sure.

As Shannon said, it could be anything. Pregnancy symptoms are unfortunately very common for most illnesses!

I hope she figures out what is going on.


So you have gray hair and you're only 26

that's just another reason I love you...

Exactly what symptoms is she having? There are quite a number of early pregnancy symptoms that really could be anything.

Nope. I think she is waiting to see if the spotting turns to be a period.

Well if she's already late for her period, she might as well just take a test so she can stop wondering/worrying.

Re: Early pregnancy symptoms - July 26th 2011, 01:33 PM

Those sound very similar to a UTI (Urinary tract infection). I had one that got to my kidney and I didn't know until it was very severe. I was spotting brown for a few days before it turned to bright red. After I would eat something spicy my back would hurt so much and I would feel very feverish, dizzy, and nauseous.

I was crying every two seconds and late for my period. One night after we had some spciy chicken I passed out and was taken to the hospital. Found out I was very close to being hospitalized (had let it go for about 2 weeks).

I mentioned my experience to see if any of that sounds like her. I'd suggest getting a pregnancy test since she is already late for her period.

Definitely encourage her go ahead and take a test. Since she's already late, she should get an accurate result.

If it's negative she really needs to go to a doctor (assuming her spotting doesn't turn out to be her period) because it could indicate a UTI, bacterial infection, STD, or any other amount of things tbh.
