I had unprotected sex on August 3 an on the 8th I started to have this intense cramping feeling in my lower abdomen an it goes from one side to the other.Along with that I also seem to be going to the bathroom a little more frequently,have this annoying nausea feeling,complete lost of my appetite,my smell seems to be really sensitive I can't stand the smell of my favorite lotion or the air freshener in my room,I've also started to become really tired an quite dizzy.My period isn't due until August 16th.I don't think its early menstrual symptoms because I've never experienced any of these things during any of my other cycles.My mother said when she was pregnant with me she had early symptoms like mine,But I was just wondering if you could give me your take on what could be going on an what should I do.

It would be way too early for you to be experiencing pregnancy symptoms at this point. In all actuality, if you were to become pregnant it's too early for the fertilized egg to even have implanted in the uterus at this point.

Most likely it is premenstrual symptoms. Remember that premenstrual symptoms and pregnancy symptoms can be identical. You are now playing the waiting game and have to wait to see if your period comes before testing.
