23 yrs old, hot flashes? preg symptom?
I am 23 years old, have been TTC #2 for about 2 years. I've had two m/c, 04/06/2011 & 04/19/2012. Past afs on Aug 3 & Aug 31, usually 21-28 days. Last week I had hot flashes 2 or 3 nights in a row. Now boobies feel like they were used as punching bags :( getting more sore, too. Almost puked 3 times yesterday, and been fighting nausea since I woke up this morning. Had "cramps" that started in my ribs and shot downward, both yesterday & today. Diarrhea/constipation combo as well. Tired & moody. The SO says he'll pick up a test tomorrow, and I already have a bloodwork order (progesterone) which was given to me on Aug 28 by my OB/GYN. She said to get it done ASAP after +HPT, and I know some places that are open on saturdays, just in case. :) But my questions are: 1.) Are hot flashes a pregnancy symptom?; and 2.) Given my "symptoms", what do you think my chances are? Thanks in advance!

Hot flashes is often the result of progesterone levels increasing, which occurs during the luteal phase of a woman's mentrual cycle. It can be a sign because if you are, then this increases even more than usual. Do you feel pregnant? how did you feel before? This is the part that sucks - preg symptoms can often simulate normal ovulation and PMS. Do you chart your BBT? If so, this can tell you as well if you are or not. You can often see a shift during your LP which can be an early sign.
Good luck!
