could it be a sign

I feel sooooo bloated this week. My eating habits have not changed, so I don't know why I feel this way. Could it be a sign. AF is due Tuesday when is the earliest I could test?

Thanks for the advice!

Re: could it be a sign

do you know when you ovulated?

Re: could it be a sign

It could be because of AF. A lot of people experience bloating before she shows.

I wouldn't test until the day before AF is due if you can't wait until the day she is due.

Re: could it be a sign

Honestly, after being fooled by so many "signs" that can mean both AF and PG, I think the best thing you can do for your own piece of mind is wait until you can test or until AF doesn't show. Best testing day starts at 13dpo.

Thanks for your help!

Re: could it be a sign

please be aware we aren't trying to be negative - but it's painful to convince yourself that you are pregnant because of symptoms only to get AF...

the symptoms are the SAME as AF - which is a cruel trick our bodies play on us.

Re: could it be a sign

I believe @ 5 days before AF, tests have a 50/50 shot of picking up a BFP.

so you could be setting yourself up for failure.

I would test sat/sun the earliest. but I'm a gambler.


Good luck!

Re: could it be a sign

eh, I'd love to say its a sign, but I sometimes get the bloated feeling before AF. Like the other ladies have said, it could be either. I'd wait to test, but dont get your hopes up too much -- its a tricky symptom
