Could I be pregnant..or what could be going on?!

Yup...the million dollar question. and ya, I know this question gets asked a hundred times a day..
But please read this!

I also have a doc appntment on the 28th, and I don't have a lot of money, so I think I will wait until then to get tested but I'm just trying to really figure out whats going on...

Anyway, thank you for reading. I'm 22, and have mostly always have had regular periods. They last 10-12 days, and are extremely heavy and painful.
End of November I started my period, or what I thought was it. But it was 4-5 days of light-medium bleeding. Since then I've been having extremely light vaginal bleeding (only shows when I wipe). So this has been going on for about a month now.
On the 17th (the start of my regular period) my flow got heavier but again it was light-medium. And it would start/stop. In the evenings I would go to the bathroom and my pad would be clean or nothing would show when I wiped.
Nothing showed yesterday or today, so I thought I was finally done. But again, when I went to the bathroom, there was light brownish-red blood on the TP. I keep thinking I feel like I'm on my period down there but nothing shows. It usually feels alittle extra..uh..wet? (sorry)
Also, since the start of this (with the extremely light bleeding) my nipples hurt, alot. Some days just against my bra they hurt.
Last week I was extremely tired all the time. I could sleep from 2pm-7pm, and then again 10pm-10am, and still wake up tired. Its not so bad this week, I havent had to nap in the day and can make it to midnight. Ive also been having some cramping down there as well.
Thank you again, for reading this
Has anyone had something similar to this when they were pregnant?

OMG! Congratulations!! I am so happy for you!  Your experience is truly different and will definitely help and encourage women that bleed during pregnancy. This shows that its possible to have a period (or you think it maybe one) and still be preggers. Congrats again on your BFP!
