I will see how I feel in a few days and bear that in mind. Thanks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717678 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:09:31 +0000 Greentea 1717678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you had your thyroid checked recently? Whenever I feel pregnant and am not I end up being hypothyroid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717616 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 07:27:15 +0000 Cherrybee 1717616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Yes, it is my super-stressful week! DH goes off to work away for two days tomorrow! Yeah, I bet that's what it is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717599 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 07:09:41 +0000 Foodnerd81 1717599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: I had one day of that over Christmas and was a little terrified- plus I was staying at a rental house and only my mil was home- wasn't about to ask her to run out and get a pregnancy test! Luckily it went away but it felt exactly the same as early pregnancy. </p> <p>I bet it's a combo of stress and exhaustion and your body reacting differently to the pill- that's got to be it. Plus this is your extra stressful week, isn't it? Hope you feel better and not pregnant soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717590 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:55:10 +0000 Cherrybee 1717590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: No, I haven't breastfed at all and @avivoca: I've been on the same pill for 15 years and this has never happened! So strange!</p> <p>@Applesandbananas: That's got to be it! I'm having a stress related phantom pregnancy, hahahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717586 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:53:19 +0000 meredithNYC 1717586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a similar cycle recently, though I was actually TTC. The thing that made me most sure I was pregnant is the sore boobs. Like you, I have never experienced that as part of PMS and actually didn't even have it with my first pregnancy. Alas, I am not knocked up over here. Hoping that's the case for you since it sounds like you are not quite ready! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717576 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:42:10 +0000 avivoca 1717576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was on the pill, I got super sore boobs, horrible exhaustion, and mood swings. It was awful. Hugs. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717569 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:31:55 +0000 sslm 1717569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, I get a lot of those signs when I'm ovulating! That would be concerning since you're on the pill... But maybe that's it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717568 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:30:55 +0000 sslm 1717568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember if you're breast feeding but if you are that can cause all of those things for sure! When M dropped to just one session I was a mess bc of the hormones. </p> <p>If not, I know it's entirely possible your body is going to act differently post pregnancy, so PmS could be a new thing bc of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717552 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:01:29 +0000 Applesandbananas 1717552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe it's just a fluke? Every great once in awhile, I'd have absurd pms that was very much like you described! </p> <p>Get some rest and be kind to yourself, I know you're under a lot of stress, maybe that's playing a part in the exhaustion? </p> <p>Hugs &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-do-i-feel-really-really-pregnant-when-im-not#post-1717515 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 03:58:57 +0000 Cherrybee 1717515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't be! I just.... can't be!! Firstly, I've been back on the pill for 8 months. Secondly, I just took a test and it's :bfn: . I'm not pregnant! </p> <p>...... and yet my boobs are so sore. They have been tender for a few days now - that unmistakable sensation, the hot, heavy tingly soreness. Oh and I'm so tired. I have just started a new job so I expected to be tired but I fell asleep with my head on the table at a restaurant on Sunday - yeah, THAT kind of tired! Plus, I've been an emotional wreck the last few days. Oh and I'm so hungry right now - if I don't eat constantly all through the day, I get that unmistakable mild nausea....... </p> <p>What is going on with me? I've NEVER had PMS symptoms while on the pill - besides, there are still 9 pills left to take before my "7 day break". I've NEVER had sore breasts apart from a) When I first came off the pill to TTC E and b) When I was pregnant. </p> <p>I'm not pregnant. It was definately a :bfn: - it was stark white, not even an evap to obsess over.....</p> <p>If I were pregnant now, it would be really bad timing. I've just started a new job and DH has only been off his category X medication for 3.5 months..... Plus, I can't handle two under two...........</p> <p>...... but I'm not. So why do I feel so pregnant??? So very, unmistakably pregnant?? </p>
