It's been 16 days since I had sex and I've noticed heavy discharge, a big amount of gas and light cramping.

What can I do next?

Have you considered peeing on a stick?

For what it's worth, I had symptoms that early - I knew from a tingling in my breasts - Not from farting my husband out of the room, though.

Yes it's too early, and gas has nothing to do with reproduction.
You may want to call your doctor re "heavy discharge" because that sounds disturbing.

Veruca .. lol.

I'm not understanding what gas has to do with this sorry. Or the other stuff you mention.

I would just go test the usual way once you miss your period to be sure.

Yes, it's too early.
I've never heard that gas is a sign of pregnancy.
When I got pregnant - I had zero, zip, nada 'signs'.
I had a positive blood test - but didn't quite believe I was pregnant until I heard the heart beat.
Generally you wait till your period is late by a few weeks and then use a home pregnancy test.
If negative and still no period, then wait a few more weeks and then try another test.

You can test a few days before your missed period, other than that there is no point in guessing.

Not much info here - wish you would put more.

Are you late? When you had sex and when you ovulated are different things so it's hard to know what your situation is.

Are you trying to get pregnant? If so, act as if you are pregnant in terms of food and drink.

I'm not sure what gas has to do with when you take a pregnancy test. Can you explain?

Cramping and discharge can be symptoms of many things.

with my first i would never of known i was pregnant except i was trying, ans missed my period.
with my second, i would never of known except my husband told me i should test because i looked pregnant again. (was on a mini pill for birth control. missed one, and hubby was right i was 7 weeks)

never experienced heavy gas while pregnant. heavy discharge could be something else. and if the sex was unprotected then you could be pregnant. but you will have to wait till your periods due and then take a pregnancy test

welcome to mamapedia, A. B.

You had unprotected sex and you want to know if you're pregnant? Have you considered the following?

1. Going to a doctor for a blood test
2. going to the dollar store and buying pregnancy tests?

If you haven't missed your period, it might be. But a doctor can tell you that as well
