    Think I may be pregnant but not sure...
    Okay my last period was from 7-30 to 8-2 and I ovulated on the 15th but Im having some weird symptoms already so I thought I would ask and see what people think...
    ~Ive been having a headache off and on for the past 3-4 days
    ~a toothache off and on for the past 2-3 days which sends pain into my ears
    ~my back has been aching
    ~my pelvic area bloats up throughout the day until I go to bed and when I wake up the next morning Ive shrunk most of the way but still look a little bloated
    ~Ive been eating like crazy, every chance I get
    ~My aeriolas look like they are getting bigger and today my right nipple started to hurt
    ~Ive been a little more moody than usual (my fiancé told me that so Idk... Men! Lol)
    ~During sex if my fiancé goes in deep it sends like a stabbing pain up to my belly button? <--- That's the weirdest one for me!

    Any ideas if Im not pregnant of what could be going on would be great, I know Im supposed to start again on the 30th but Im too anxious to wait to test and just wanted some feedback to see if Im going insane in my membrane or not! Lol! Thanks :)

    Pregnancy symptoms and PMS are almost exact, therefore going by symptoms isn't a reliable way to determine pregnancy.

    You'll have to wait until your next period is due. If it is, wait a week, then try a pregnancy test using first morning urine. If it's negative wait another week or two and test again. If that test is negative see what happens with your next scheduled period, if you miss that one, test again or see your doctor for a more accurate blood test.

    That's really all you can do. I wish we could tell you, but there really isn't any way for anyone to do that.

    Good luck. :)

    Well I can tell you that usually I don't have any PMS symptoms, never have. So if I started now that would be pretty weird lol. But thanks :)

    No two periods are exactly the same. Many women come here because they missed a period, which they've never done before, and it turns out they're just having an off month. There's a first time for everything.

    I should also mention that all the symptoms you described are also indicative of an illness like the flu, or many other possibilities.

    I'm not saying you're not pregnant, I'm just saying that you can't determine pregnancy by these symptoms. The only symptom that can indicate a possible pregnancy is a missed period, and the only way to confirm pregnancy is with a pregnancy test.
