My boyfriend and I are worried

We are conserned about symptoms that I am having 3+ months ago I had the marina coil fitted. I for the past week or so I have been feeling really sick not having been sick but first thing in the morning and at night, I have been bloating out quite a lot after meals as I normally do but I have been having strange cravings such as original Pringles and Jelly sweets that I don't even like... I don't know if I am pregnant but am scared I case I am freaking out

Re: My boyfriend and I are worried

Firstly, I want to strongly encourage that you stay calm in this situation. I know you and your boyfriend might be worried about the possibilities, but there is no benefit of being worried until everything is confirmed. Worrying will only make things worse right now.

Secondly, I recommend that you visit your doctor and take a pregnancy test. If you don't feel comfortable doing that right now for whatever reason, I'd encourage that you buy a pregnancy test or even visit a clinic that can also do the test for you. Home pregnancy tests aren't always reliable, so I'd strongly recommend that you take the test with a medical professional - just to be sure.

For now, stop worrying and take a test. If it turns out that you are pregnant, have a conversation with your boyfriend. Reach out to those closest for you in order to obtain their support and advice as well. I know it's a scary time for you right now, but everything is speculation right now. Don't worry yourself over the possibility of pregnancy; you may not even be pregnant.

Re: My boyfriend and I are worried

Like said above, it's important that you don't let yourselves get too worried unless you know for sure. The best way for you to find out if you are pregnant or not is to take a pregnancy test. It can be a daunting thing to do but it's better to find out sooner rather than later.
