Hi.
I'm 37 and currently in early pregnancy but im not sure how far on I am.
I came off the pill in october and had a normal period starting end of nov.
I had awful breast tenderness follwing ovulation in december which got worse and worse over the 2 weeks leading up to xmas.
At this point I was convinced I was pregnant but didnt test as was too early. My period was due 26th dec.
4th jan I had a bleed after sex, bright red blood and I thought my period had started. However the bleeding quickly tailed off to very light brown discharge which lasted over the next 24 hours. My breast tenderness seemd to improve but then came back with a vengence. I became convinced I was pregnant again by late january, and felt tired/sick all the weekend of 24th/25th. I finally did a test on the 28th which was positive. I fact I did four!
The thing that is bothering me is this.
From the date of the period in january I can only be 5 weeks pregnant at the mo, but I have been having symptoms for at least 4/5 weeks.
Can symptoms start this early?
This will be my 4th baby but the others are much older . My son is 16 and I have identical twins of 11. I see the midwife on 20th feb, was the earliest appointment.
Thanks and sorry for long story!
