Why is everyone thinking they're pregnant?

I've been reading around this section for awhile. It starts with "Do you think I'm pregnant?" and then she goes on to list every possible symptom of pregnancy, she has them ALL, and her period is a day late, MAX! Usually it's not even due yet. What is with this baby fever??!!

Sadly most of these women are also completely unaware of how their bodies even work. They think the minute you have sex you're pregnant. Nope, not even if you're trying.

Girls, before you try and grow a child of your own (who will do nothing but demand from you for years before they MIGHT later love you!) why don't you learn how your body works.

A few gems:

I peed out an egg

I got pregnant from anal sex

I felt it inside the minute I got pregnant

My fave: if I'm pregnant with a girl can she get pregnant when I have sex?

They'd be hysterical if they weren't so sad.

Update:

It's a totally different ball of wax if you've been TTC but there'd is a section for that and those women know more than some drs about the process of conception!

If I thought they were here to learn something that would be amazing. But if you try and explain how it works they tell you to stfu! They don't want to learn. They just want yes or no. Life isn't like that.

    Well, i for one did know when i conceived. Both times. I KNOW it's not possible to have any physical symptoms at the stage, i am well aware of all of the facts of pregnancy. However, i'm not talking about something measurable or tangible. I just knew.

    This time, i was on clomid. I felt it when i ovulated each cycle. And it was confirmed with blood tests. I even knew which side i ovulated from. I felt it when i conceived in the third cycle (i just knew that it had worked that time) and i felt it when i implanted.

    my symptoms were no cramping, and no need to house work (like i did the two cycles previously the day before i started spotting). I had a positive HPT at 10dpo, which according to my scan was when i was 3w 1day pregnant.

    Yes, there are people out there with not enough information (who ask ridiculously dumb questions)... how DARE they come on a questions and answers website trying to get some info!!!

    Yes, there are girls who don't know how their bodies work (which is not really their fault if they are teens, sometimes even adults. 'don't educate your kids about sex or their bodies- they might turn EVIL!!')... how DARE they come on a questions and answers website trying to get some info!!!

    but most of the time, women come on here because they are TTC and just want some hope. After TTC for #1 for 2yrs, and for #2 3yrs, i can understand that need perfectly.

    And then of course there's the trolls.

    Oh, also, there's the option to just NOT ANSWER questions that you feel are a waste of your time.

    add: the ones who email you and cuss you out for your answer are definitely in the troll corner.

    Some girls come on here and yes, they are asking ridiculous questions that they could very well just google or even call a nurse/dr., then there are those of us who are just ttc and have been for a while now, who are just looking for someone to give us some hope, especially while we wait for the arrival of A.F or to take a pregnancy test. Some people don't know their bodies well enough yet, some people just got off b.c and some might have irregular periods, not everyone can tell what's going on with their body.

    If you don't like a question don't answer it.

    Sweetie, i do not imagine there are some adults that make good parents. :) there is alot that is going into parenting than in basic terms age. yet there is also alot of duty that comes with raising a touch one and that i have witness circumstances the position youngsters do not commonly comprehend the ramifications of what they're doing. Can they make good parents, i imagine it relies upon? Can they offer for the toddler with out being depending? some can, some can't. Can they discipline properly? some can, some can't. Loving little ones isn't sufficient. there is alot that is going into parenting. yet no, i do not imagine age is the figuring out aspect on parenting. To be honest, in case you wish over the preschool board and word each and each and every of the questions about uncontrolled preschoolers, you'll see what I propose. parents could be prepared to be in can charge of their babies. That includes making sensible options round the toddler contained in the aspects of well being, education, discipline. i do not in my opinion imagine it truly is sensible for a 16 yod to pass it on my own even though it quite is my opinion. i imagine if I had a daughter on your position i ought to inspire adoption. back, my opinion. i'm off the question nonetheless. Age would not ensure good parenting. adulthood and awareness do. and there are a form of adults that do not actually have that.

    Lmao! Thank you!! I was thinking the same thing. Luckily, I am bored tonight and going around and answering their questions anyhow. However, I originally came to this forum to read about other soon-to-be moms and their questions to see if I was in the same boat as them, or could help, or whatever. I thought the 'am i pregnant' questions belong in the 'trying to conceive' forum, not over here. That's where I put mine whenever I was curious. Of course I didn't get pregnant until I stopped trying. Anyways...Where are all the actual pregnancy related questions?
