PMS-like symptoms, but most likely not pregnant?

Is a pregnancy likely to last if you have more symptoms?

• What do you think...if you have a lot of pregnancy symptoms early on (3-4 weeks) is there a better chance the baby will "stick"? I am 4 weeks and 2 days, and have had extremely sore bbs since 7 days before my period was due, plus light nausea, extreme sensitivity to smells, and I am way hungrier than normal and can eat a lot more than I usually can. I got a positive test 2 days before my period was due. Anyone had tons of symptoms and had the pregnancy last? Anyone had tons of symptoms and had the pregnancy fail? One of my good friends had almost no symptoms at all and she is now 8 months along, so I know that is possible too, I'm just wondering if having a lot of strong symptoms makes it likely the pregnancy will last. Thanks!!!

• Answer:

  I found out at 4 weeks that I was pregnant and had nausea, aversion to smells, sore boobs, and was tired ALL the time...I then miscarried at 5 weeks. I have 2 children already and will tell you that I had the same symptoms with all three pregnancies...I am not trying to scare you but about 50% of all pregnancies end up in miscarriage...but if you are really scared you should talk to your doctor about getting you HCG levels checked. If the numbers keep doubling every 2 or 3 days...that is a good sign, if your HCG numbers go down (prior to 12 weeks)...you will miscarry. I am sure you will be fine though...Good Luck and lots of baby dust to you!!!
