Hey everyone! I just have a question. I posted almost a month ago, and have yet to test (which I know it will only answer my question. lol) BUT I dont think that I was pregnant when I posted. I believe I MIGHT have got pregnant a few weekends after. Either way, that is not my question. My breasts use to hurt before my period, they did this probably ALL of 2009, but when I had my gallbladder surgery in early february, they stopped hurting before I started. Well, they didnt hurt in January, February, March, April, or May. BUT They started to get a little sore at the end of May, and now I have noticed that my left breast hurts, my nipples seem really sensitive. My last period was May 7th. I am due for another period this week. I just wasnt sure if it was actually possible that I could be pregnant or my breasts could sporadically hurt like this. I dont really have any other symptoms but extreme exhaustion (which I get before period too), after I eat some things I get nauseated. More like a food aversion, no real cravings... Just headache, and my breats hurting. Just wondering. I think I will try and test this weekend if I dont start soon. But any advice, help or suggestions would be great!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you ladies for your reply. I did take a test this morning and it was negative. :-( BUT I am trying to make a doctor appointment today. Besides these symptoms, I am so exhausted and there has to be something wrong. The last time I actually thought something was wrong (and the doctor thought it was just indigestion) I ended up in the emergency room to have my gall bladder removed. So if I am not pregnant then something must be going on. Thansk again ladies. Once I find out I will let yall know.

If you haven't been preventing pregnancy, you very well may be pregnant, given your symptoms. However, the true test will be to wait and see if you get your period (or not), and of course, taking a test. It's possible too that your PMS symptoms changed up a bit this month. That happens to me once in a while. My breasts will hurt for a few months in a row and then not for a while, and then back again. Because I'm on the pill, I don't think much of it, but if you're not using contraceptives, then your symptoms could mean either. You sound excited about possibly being pregnant... it's hard to wait, but that's the best way to answer your question. Good luck :)

If you are a caffine or chocolate lover that could be the problem. Caffine causes fibrocystic cyst in the boobs. I have always had this same problem. For some reason it is always my left breast too. Caffine is in alot of stuff we do not even realize ( any chocolate). If you I do not have any sweets or sodas my boobs feel really good, but the moment I eat a cookie or candy bar, or have coffee, or a soda I will instantly start hurting. Especially, right before my period. Our bodies crave sweets when its that time. We usually give in to those sweets.

You could be pregnant. The problem with the home pregnancy tests is that if you take them too soon, the pregnancy won't show up. Do try one though, and confirm either way with your doctor and a blood test in the doctor's office. Let me know what happens. J.
