Question

Old and Confused!!

My period is due in 4 days however i am not seeing the pre-period signs of spotting and not feeling any cramps or breast tenderness. I am feeling bloated, moody, sleepy and a bit of back ache and headache and it seems im going off my coffee addiction. Also since today my mouth has this metallic taste, springing saliva and I am peeing just a little more than usual.

My two older children are 16 and 15 so its been awhile for me. Can someone please update this old lady on whether or not I could be pregnant!

The only way to know is to test! Excessive saliva was always an early symptom for me with both pregnancies. If you are pregnant, you may or may not get an accurate result at this point so when you test is up to you. I recommend the First Response Early Result. It is probably the most sensitive test on the market. Gl!

It's very possible, even with birthday around the
corner. One of my aunts was told for 20yrs she
Couldn't conceive and shortly after turning 40 she
became pregnant! 8mos after giving birth she was pregnant
Again. And 2 yrs later they had one more munchkin and
Closed their factory. Goodluck to you!
