Question

Can these be pregnancy symptoms?

I currently use the Period Tracker app on my Samsung to record EVERYTHING going on during my cycles. My last period start August 21, 2014, and the tracker said the full cycle lasted 29 days. So, that being said, my ovulation date was September 6. I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend twice that day, and we used the withdrawal method. I am now 8 DPO, and this past week has been a little confusing. I have had a constant nausea that seems to just linger in my stomach and throat. I am hypoglycemic so I do eat about every 3 hours and the nausea would not lessen. I also have constant gas, very dramatic and vivid dreams (I dream of food and wake up wanting it), very VERY fatigued, and very happy but also more moody. For a few days, my sense of smell was heightened but not as much now. I get hungry more now and my breasts don't feel much different. However, if I pinch my nipples a little, they are sore and they are NEVER sore. Please comment your thoughts! :)

At this point in time, anything could be considered pregnancy symptoms. I wish there was one certain symptom that would say "YOU ARE PREGNANT!!!" haha wouldnt that be awesome? I would wait for about 4-5 days and then start testing.

I use period tracker too, as well as womanlog (which I prefer tbh). The ovulation day is only based on average 14 day lp. It's a good idea to use ovulation sticks around the time the app says your fertile to check is accurate x x

However, saying that, hopefully you won't need to do that and you'll be getting a bfp in a few days :)

At 8 dpo it is unlikely to start having pregnancy related symptoms. Most women at earliest experience implantation on 6dpo. The average being 9 dpo. And even at the point of implantation the body would have barely started producing hcg. I've learnt the hard way that symptom spotting/tracking is not strong evidence to indicate pregnancy or not. I've been TTC since 2012 and I've had every symptom in the book without falling pregnant. When AF is late is the best indicator that something is going on. Good Luck!
