Am I Pregnant?

I've been going crazy for two weeks wondering if I'm pregnant. People say not to think about it when you're trying to conceive. How can I not think about it? It's on my mind constantly.

My period is only 1 day late so far. Is it because I'm anxious all the time? I don't want to get my hopes up here.

Oh, and this would be my first.

And, it's our first try.

Hi- Stress can delay the start of you period. Try exercising and having sex. If my Aunt Flo is late, having sex seems to get it going within 24 hours (not sure why). Most of the tests on the market these days can be taken 3 to five days after your missed period. I trust the brand EPT the most. Just as an FYI the digital tests that are on the market now have been knowen to show false results. Congratulations on starting a family and don't get frustrated if it doesn't happen the first month. And if it does- congratulations again!

Go take a test...you might be pregnant enough already :0) ISome of those tests work pretty early in your cycle. Besides, if negative, have more sex and check again in a few days...

Have fun starting a family ;o)

OOh how exciting! I've been really impatient like that too. Take a test! Mine showed positive the day after my missed period. If it doesn't happen this time, I hope it does really soon.

If you're stressing about it I would definitely go take a test. The worst that will happen is you'll waste a few bucks. Go for EPT, they're the only one that I trust. I had multiple negative tests with this pregnancy and EPT is the only one that came up positive, even two weeks after my missed period. Funny, huh? All the generics said negative. Even after I got a positive EPT, I still had others testing negative days later. I went through A LOT of pregnancy tests with this one. I was so sure I was pregnant that I just couldn't believe the negatives. I guess I was right. :)

Good luck!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
