Could I be Pregnant - Light, Irregular Periods

I had sex on the 2nd of February. Since then my periods have been odd an the only time they've been odd before was when I had my son (now 7).

I have all the pregnancy symptoms - sore boobs, a constant ache in my lower regions, last month 2 on/off light periods, and this month a week late so far. Now it looks like my pelvis is stretching as I'm wider an slightly swollen and I can feel my pelvic bone when I put my legs together.

I'm also emotional and moody, suffer headaches , no line or dark breasts much, but I didn't have those signs with my son.

Do you think i could be pregnant?

Answer:

Some women do have irregular periods/spotting when they're early pregnant - and it sounds like you did when you were pregnant with your son. Your other symptoms sound like possible pregnancy symptoms, too.

They could also be symptoms of stress and such making your cycle irregular.

If you are pregnant I think a home pregnancy test would turn positive by this time, so you can try a home test. Or, if it's negative and you're still not sure you can ask your doctor to order a blood test for you.

Whatever you find out, I hope it's what you want to hear. Best of luck to you!
