BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Pregnancy twitching

I really dont think that I am pregnant because Im on the pill (have been for a few years, and never missed one), I have regular cycles (29 days). I haven't missed a period and haven't noticed any change in my periods. But for the last month or so occasionally I feel nauseous 1-2 times a day but more than that is I've been feeling a weird fluttering sensation in my lower tummy. I know what gas feels like lol and it's NOT that... it feels like bubbling, popcorn popping, or like a rapid eye twitch movement. It happens numerous times a day... more noticeable when Im laying down or just relaxing but it happens from morning til night every day. I can't remember when it first started but it's been going on for quite some time now. Each little flutter lasts for different amounts of time. Somtimes 2 seconds, other times it'll last for 30 seconds or longer. I dont know what it is... Im due for my next period on dec 23rd and even though I dont really think I am pregnant, should I take a test anyways? Could the pill interfere somehow and make it 'seem' as though Im having a period when Im actually pregnant?!?!? Or is this just a weird muscle twitch for no reason? Im not feeling any pain just weird sensations.

If you haven't missed a period, the fluttering you feel wouldn't be a baby kicking, because normally you wouldn't feel it until you were 4-5 months pregnant Have you changed anything in your diet? you could have a food allergy that you don't know about. If the feeling keeps up, I would get checked. Also, I have never heard of the pill messing up a pregnancy test, but I don't really know if it would.

Hope this helps

Good luck.

I dont think that I am pregnant, but I've heard of people having what they "thought" was a period while on the pill and turned out they were 4 months along.. so what I meant was, is it possible to be pregnant, but still have what "seems to be" a period because the pill just makes the bleeding happen as a normal routine (similiar to a period)???

My mom didn't know she was pregnant until she was about 4 months along.. and the only reason she found out was because she got really light headed and passed out... her doc. made her take a preg. test and voila! 5 months later she had my brother! But before that incident she never suspected she was pregnant because she had regular bleeding LIKE a period up until 5 months. I know that you technically can't have a period while pregnant, but many women still experience what "seems to be" a period and thats why some dont find out until 3-5 months along. So I was wondering if the pill could disguise a pregnancy by still having bleeding at the same time you would normally have a period?!

In that case, I guess you should see a doctor. I did have bleeding during one of my pregnancies, but it was more brownish, not really a period. If your period is different than it normally is, then yes, I would definately get checked.

thanks...
do you think I should wait to see a doc until dec 23 when Im due? or before then? Do u think its worth taking a preg. test or just see a doc?

I would atleast call the doc and see what they say. And if it would make you comfortable, the pregnancy test wouldn't hurt.
