Input, Please

Hi, everyone!  I'm about at the point for taking a hpt, but I wanted to get some input during the waiting period.  I've been fatigued (slept 12 hrs Sat), light-headed (felt like I could pass out on Sat), feeling slightly nauseous, and having more noticeable cramps than usual.  Too, aside from the normal breast sensitivity from PMS, I've had moments where they're so sensitive, it hurts to have anything against them.  I'm not exactly sure of my ovulation time because my period's been a bit off, but there is a chance that sex occurred during a fertile time.  Do these sound like signs leading more towards pregnancy or period?  I know only a test can say for sure, but any input would be appreciated!

It's hard to know whether the symptoms are from your period or pregnancy because they both have the same symptoms. I know that for me, whenever I thought I might be pregnant I felt nausea (or maybe imagined it lol) but when I actually was pregnant, it wasn't just a little bit of nausea...there was no doubt in my mind because the sickness was THAT bad. So, if you've been feeling really sick I'd say there's a good chance. Good luck :)
