I had intercourse while I was ovulating and a week after that I was feeling a little dizziness, queezy and always tired and had a slight headache everyday, I would get almost like heartburn after I ate and smoked, but mostly queezy at night while struggling to fall asleep, now that I am 4 days away from getting my period, this morning I seem to be feeling better, is it possible that I am pregnant? O and I did a test yesterday but it was negative? PLEASE PLEASE HELP! :confused::confused:

It may have been too early. If your period doesn't come in the next few days, take another test.
On another note, if you are trying to conceive, quiting smoking now before you're actually pregnant (or maybe you already are) is a good idea. I can't imagine you would want to risk causing harm to your baby by smoking while pregnant.

Of course it is possible. None of us can know better than you or your doctor. I suggest waiting a little longer to see if you get your period, then go to the doctor to find out for sure. And as a side note, I would ditch the smoking, especially if you're actively TRYING to get pregnant. It leads to low birth weight and other things. Google if you want to know more.

You click the yellow "rate my answer" link and the tell whether the answer was accurate or inaccurate and why. Ex: "thanks, that answer really helped me." or "no, 2+2 does not equal 5" be careful not to say something is inaccurate just because you don't agree, only factually incorrect answers. :)

Phil dear,

First of all... SToP smoking!! If you are trying to get pregnant the last thing you want is the fetus becoming addicted to nicotine.

Second of all, premenstrual symptoms and pregnancy symptoms can mimic each other. You are now playing the waiting game. Wait to see if your period comes, if not, test using first morning urine.
