Question 1

is it common to have aching breasts in early pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Early changes in pregnancy and estrogen levels will make your breasts feel more sensitive and sore. These changes are normal in early pregnancy.

Question 2

early pregnancy sharp breast pain?

Accepted Answer

Not normal: Could be many different things , call your OB now u need an evaluation and will prob need breast studies if the pain is coming from your breast and not somewhere else like below your breast.

Question 3

is it normal for your breast pain to be in different areas of your breast, and not just one in early pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Guess what? ALL of the breast is responding to the increased hormones of pregnancy, not just one spot.

Question 4

is cramps and tender breast are symptoms of early pregnancy after taking the plan b?

Accepted Answer

Ambiguos symptoms: Ambiguous symptoms no longer should be considered in any way as diagnostic for pregnancy.

These symptoms are most commonly caused by hormone levels fluctuating. Taking Plan B is taking extra hormones. Thus you have 'fluctuating' hormones. There it is, the cause of these ambiguous symptoms.

Your symptoms also do not in any way represent an early pregnant state.

Question 5

if i conceived 8 days ago, now on day 21 of 26 day cycle, and breasts are tender, how accurate is early pregnancy test?took1 yesterday-neg. 1 today-neg

Accepted Answer

After missed period: You likely tested too early. It is generally better to wait till you miss your period before doing the home test. Better yet, wait 4-5 after the missed period. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions in the test kit carefully. You could get a blood test as soon as one day after a missed period.

Question 6

i have been in birth control for 4 years. however this cycle i have tender breast and a soft high cervix. i am consistent with the pill and take it within a couple hours if i noticed i was late that day. im worried i am showing early pregnancy s/sx?

Accepted Answer

: If your pill regimen did not include a "late start" for a couple days after the placebo week ended, pregnancy is unlikely. Variation in metabolism can slow the elimination of hormones from combined oral bcp use, and may increase breast tenderness on occasion. To be certain about possible pregnancy, obtain a serum HCG test, which is very accurate.

Question 7

seven days before my period is due.  i have tender and heavy breasts with cramps and very light pinkish spotting.  pms or early pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

PMS: Seems that this is due to premenstual syndrome since it is before your period and cyclical.

Question 8

i'm not on my period, finished it about 16 days ago but now i have tender breasts and now some brown discharge. early pregnancy or something else?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy: Pregnancy is a possibility if you have had intercourse. Do a home pregnancy test.

Question 9

have pid.  sharp rectum pain and tightening in vagina along with breast pain.  r these symptoms of early pregnancy. how many weeks pregnant do these o?

Accepted Answer

PID: Stands for pelvic inflammatory disease and makes everything down there hurt. It can also mess up your hormones which might account for breast tenderness . If you have missed a period and are going nuts and your doctors have not already checked, take a pregnancy test.

Question 10

ok i have signs of early pregnancy. tender breast being tired, having med cramps. after my bath .i was standing about ten mins later a gush water came?

Accepted Answer

Do a pregnancy test.: You should do a pregnancy test (urine or blood) to determine if you are pregnant. The gush of fluid could be urine, vaginal discharge or membrane rupture from a pregnancy (if you are pregnant). If your pregnancy test is positive, you should see your doctor to have a pregnancy ultrasound.
