BFP? Could it be false? - internet cheapie

I am 33 and this is my first time ever seeing two lines on a hpt!! I don't think I have ever been pregnant before (hence I have never seen two lines) Was told I had PCOS, started taking Metformin within the last year. My Last cycle was November 14th, and looking back at my calendar DH and I BD'd on the 24th and the 28th. (I have an app in my phone and listed it for the heck of it - Kind of glad I did)

I am so nervous that I am going to wake up and this was all a dream, or the tests were all false positives.. but what would be the chances of the tests ALL being wrong?

I had purchased some ovulation and internet cheapies off of the internet a few months ago and put them up because I decided that I wasn't going to worry/try right now to get pregnant because I still have one more year of college to go. (I am a LPN in the BSN program)

Here are my symptoms: (Now that I think back I wonder if some of the things i experienced were signs/symptoms?)

About two weeks after proposed conception time (according to babycenter) - I opened a bag of turkey breast I had bought from Publix (That I love), but the smell made me want to be sick and I ended up taking the turkey back *it had just been put on the shelf and nowhere near expiration date)

My husbands cologne was making me sick

About a week ago I woke up with a sore throat and then I had some sinus congestion - felt like I was coming down with the flu.... Breasts were extremely sore, like they were on fire - could barely lay on them while on my stomach.. Mild cramping and extreme fatigue. I have also been waking to go to the bathroom. I also developed a small cold sore last week that has almost gone away.

I thought for sure AF was coming, waited waited not thinking that I could in a million years be pregnant being I am 33 and have never been. Well the last few days I have been soooo tired where all I want to do is sleep. So I happened to notice a pregnancy test in my box while I was cleaning up some while hubby was at work and thought well maybe if I take this and my mind sees that it is negative then AF will hurry up and come on so I'll be over this tiredness. -

OMG 2 lines immediately came up!! I started crying, I couldn't believe it,(I still can't believe it) I ran and got another one - positive - another one positive.. 4th one (don't ask) it was positive too.. It was only 7pm and hubby didn't get off work until 10pm.. I am still in shock..... and nervous... I took a 5th test last night.  

This morning I woke up and yeap I POS again, my 6th one, a line showed up immediately, just not as dark dark as a couple of the ones last night showed - It just doesn't seem real to me and it's like I keep seeing the lines to assure myself that something has got to be going on..

I am still all congested, breasts aren't as sore today.

I do plan to contact the health department today (I have insurance through my university; however, it doesn't cover pregnancy and it is free, so I never bothered to sign up for my husband's insurance.

I know how u feel. I am 27 and having my first baby. I started to think something was wrong with me and i couldn't get pregnant. then my period was late and my breasts were sore i kept taking home pregnancy tests and the 6 of them were negative. Last Saturday i took one and it was positive, then i worried if it was a false positive so i took another yesterday and it was also positive. My sister (who has 3), said the reason it was negative all those times is because it wshow up unless ur at least 1 month pregnant already.

Those are definitely postitive tests...congratulations!
I experience many of the same early pregnancy symptoms you have, and I'm on my third pregnancy currently. The sinus congestion, fatigue, and sore breasts are my big indicators. It's the massive hormone surge your body is making to get that little gummy bear to implant and start growing. :-)
Have a happy and healthy nine months!
