bloating/large tummy question

i am not sure if this is a PMS symptom (even though i am late) or if it could be an early pregnancy sign.

my tummy is much larger/more bloated than usual and i dont know what to make of it. is that just a PMS symptom or could it be an early sign of pregnancy? i also have sore boobs.Chat Icon

Re: bloating/large tummy question

It can be both. When were you due for AF? Did you POAS?

Re: bloating/large tummy question

Yes- absolutely. Sometimes depending on the kind of stick it may not pick up the pregnancy hormone as well. Try again tomorrow. If it comes back negative then wait until this Saturday. By then AF would have came or you will officially be one week late. If you are regular and this is your first time off schedule then you may want to call your Dr. to sched an appt. to see what's up.

What stick are you using?

From what I remember, you aren't sure when you ovulated, right?

So it's possible that AF is not due yet. If your AF is late, most pregnancy tests should be accurate in their results.

Also, for me - bloating is a big sign of AF coming, although I have heard of it being sign of a BFP also.

Best of luck to you! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
