Hi.
So in the last few weeks, I noticed weird bloating. Last time I slept with my ex, 8 and a half months ago. Since then, I had my periods every month, nothing out of usual, for 7 months. But this month my period is late and I am scared.
As you can see, I have weird bump, divided between my uterus and upper abdomen (?) . I have always been really skinny, so this is news to me. When I press on my uterus, it is quite hard. But when I sit down, my stomach rolls and gets all flabby.
I read stories about skinny women who had these little bumps like mine, and cryptic pregnancies so I am literally terrified. Can I actually be 35 weeks pregnant? Do you think my stomach is weird, or it could just be bloating due to my late period? I also had no other pregnancy signs. My boobs would hurt before period, and stop after I got it every month, just like always.
Please don't judge me, I am just really scared I don't know what to do :(
What Girls Said
Get a pregnancy test (the HCG hormone should still be circulating in your bloodstream). Get a Blood Test at the doctors as well. .. Get an ULTRASOUND of your lower abdomen!
Don't be scared. It's not usually life threatening anyway and you are still young! A doctor (gynecologist/obstetrician) is your best person to go to. Maybe go to an urgent care if you have any other symptoms. It's your body and your life. If you don't take care of it, who will? ! Good luck.
It could be just bloating due to the late period. I doubt you're pregnant when you've had regular periods before now. My best friend had the same thing happen to her and it turned out she was just really bloated from her period being extremely late but if you want to be extra sure just go see your gyno and find out for sure that you are not.
If you get ur periods after meeting then ur not pregnant, it may be other reason of bloating so can consult with your Dr.
