Could I be Pregnant?

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for a while...and so a while back, we bought those ovulation tests from the local drug store, and when I was ovulating, we had sex. And now, my breasts seem to be bigger than usual, and a little tender. However, when I am about to start my menstrual, my breasts usually get a little sore anyways, but I've never noticed them growing before. I am scheduled to start some time next week between Monday and Wednesday. I seem to be going to the bathroom a little more frequently. I considered a possible bladder infection, but my urine is very light and it doesn't hurt. My lower stomach seems to be a little sensitive as well. Almost like the soreness you get the day after doing some sit ups. It mostly only hurts when I sneeze.
Also, on a regular day, I only eat once. Later on in the day, my stomach will start growling and doing the whole hunger pain thing. However, recently I have been experiencing that feeling more often throughout the day. And yesterday morning, much like the 3 previous mornings, I experienced nausea and feeling like I was going to vomit. Only yesterday morning, I actually did vomit. I was told to look for vomit that resembled egg yolks...but it was kind of difficult seeing as how i had previously eaten potato soup. My mother told me that she was vomiting way before she missed her period. So maybe it could be the same case with me? Like I said before, we have been trying for a while to get pregnant, and every time I would get my hopes up and try to be aware of any symptoms I may be experiencing. However this time it feels very different.
Plus, I usually spot a week or so before I'm supposed to start. No such spotting has occurred yet. Is it possible I could be pregnant?

Well I when I found out I was pregnant I got positives on all the same tests you did.  I worked at a doctors office at that time and just to see I took their test.  They all came up negative until about a week or so later.  The sensitivity is not as low on most doctor office tests.  Also did you have a lot of drink before going?  Did you go to the bathroom within 3 hours of going?  If so then your urine may have been too diluted.  I would call your doctors office and tell them that you got a positive on 3 tests one of them being digital.  Request a blood test.  Congratulations.

Okay, So I took a two of those First Response tests and both came out positive. I then went to my doctor the next day (Friday) to confirm and he said the urine test came back negative. But my husband was not quite convinced...seeing as how he has noticed changes as well. So we bought a Clearblue Digital test, just to make sure we weren't misreading the other two tests or on the off chance they were faulty tests. I took it late last night. (My sleeping schedule is backwards. I sleep during the day and am up during the night.) So as soon as I woke up, from 8 hours of sleep, I took the test, and sure enough, it read clear: "Pregnant." I even asked my husband to look at it, lol. Just in case I was seeing things. I was wondering, since I wasn't late yet, and the urine test at the doctor's office didn't really have time for the hormone to build up, seeing as how I'd been awake for several hours already, could that be why that test said negative while all these others are saying positive? I have a follow up appointment Tuesday, should I request a blood pregnancy test?  I mean, it's just a little hard to believe that all three tests, 2 of them the same but the other different and purchased even in a different place, could all be faulty. What else could cause all those false positives? Even after a negative from the doctor's office?

It is possible.  Your symptoms actually sound a lot like mine did the month I got pregnant.  I also noticed that I felt the little cramping feeling like my period was going to come a few days before it was due.  The eating thing was a big thing that tipped me off.  I would eat and then an hour or two later be so hungry again that I had to stop what I was doing and eat or I would feel like I was going to pass out.  Another thing that tipped me off was that I started burping after everything I ate which was really weird for me.  Not everybody has implantation bleeding so don't get worried if you don't see it.  Myself I had a little light pink spotting the day after I got my first positive test (which was 3 days prior to my period starting) and then another a week after that.  Both were light pink and was only when I wiped.  It only lasted a few hours both times.  Good luck and I hope all these symptoms mean a positive pregnancy test this month!!!  Keep us updated.

Yes, it is very possible that you are pregnant. If your due on wednesday or thursday you would only be about 7dpo! So taking a test now would just be a waste. I say wait til monday/tuesday and try testing with a ER test. (Early Response) As they can pick up pregnancy 4days before a missed period. Best of luck!
