Hi!
It sounds like you may be pregnant. You certainly have the symptoms and 17 year old women are very fertile.  The pregnancy test is what you need.
I am glad that you can talk to your mother about your pregnancy or possible pregnancy--she may be a great help to you either way.  When you go into town for the test, if you are NOT trying to conceive, get on a reliable form of birth control.  IUDs are becoming really poplular in your age group--lsat for 5-10 years with minimal side effects.
Good luck!
Dr B
