I started my period around December 25/26 && ended my period on January 1/2. I still have a week ½ till my period comes. I'm irregular. Since my period ended my husband && I have unprotected sex mostly every day. I say it's impossible to feel pregnancy symptoms before a missed period but about 4-5 days ago I started feeling different. I mostly have weird stomach feelings. Barely today out of nowhere I felt so light headed like if I was literally about to faint && while I felt that way I had a headache && I felt very nauseous but didn't vomit. My husband keeps saying I'm pregnant but I say I'm not. Also many people including my mother && brother are asking me if I'm pregnant. Is it impossible to have symptoms before a missed period?
Can anyone help me?

I felt almost sick before I knew I was pregnant. I also felt very tired. So I do believe your body acts different even.before your missed period.

Many people say I feel sick because I'm about to have my period.. but I never get any symptoms before my period.. not even cramps.. && I don't really feel tired nor sleepy.. I haven't been able to sleep for some odd reason. For example, yesterday night I went to sleep at 8:30am && woke up at 12:50pm when my husband goes to work && usually I'm use to taking naps but I didn't sleep at all that day && last night I was up until 6/7am && again woke up at 12pm. Now I just can't sleep : / what's wrong with me?

Could be due to pregnancy... some women do notice changes even before a missed period, could be that you are fighting an illness, might be due to a period about to come on... even if it has never happened before.
See what happens when you think your period might be next due. It is more challenging with irregular cycles since you can't always rely on a missed period as a possible sign of pregnancy.
You could try a pregnancy test now, making sure that you follow the directions, or you could wait another week or two and see if you have another period or not. Most women become very tired in early pregnancy and find they could sleep all the time, but everyone is different.
If you try a test and it is negative, wait another week and if the possible symptoms continue either try another test or see your doctor.
