Could I be pregnant?

I have not been on the pill since August.  I don't remember the exact day of my last cycle, but it was around Labor Day weekend (Sept 1st or 2nd) and it was a full blown cycle.  Back aches, cramping, heavy flow, etc.  My husband and I have been pretty sexually active, but he pulled out most of the time because he really isn't sure about me getting pregnant again.  He did forget a couple times.  I am expecting my period in a couple days.  Yesterday I was nauseated on and off all day, smells were different to me, I was tired and felt dizzy and faint a couple times.  I had frequent urination trips to the bathroom.  I took a home test last night and it was negative. Today I felt fine early in the day, but about 4pm I started feeling "car sick" just reading on the couch.  I have been feeling dizzy this evening and my heart is also racing on and off.  I have felt some twinges in my pelvic area, but nothing that feels like cramps and my period is coming.  Could I be pregnant?  Should I test again, even if I get a small period?

I started not feeling well on Saturday and the worst of it hit me around 4pm and lasted the evening.  Yesterday, I felt fine until about 4pm and then REALLY hungry, but dizzy every time I moved and smells are really strong.  The only thing that sounds or tastes good is something with cinnamon, like a bagel or granola bar.  Today, I was fine most of the day until that 4pm hour again.  I was hungry, then after eating something that sounded good at the time, I felt dizzy and "car sick" again.  I was expecting to get my period today, so far nothing and the last test I took on Saturday came up negative right away.  I also have a clear white discharge, no smell though.  I would say that maybe I have a flu bug or something, but the fact that it hits me hardest about the same time every day for the last 3 days is making me think otherwise.

Wait until you miss your period until you test. Sometimes you can get a positive a couple days early but its usually very accurate when the period is actually missed.

You are having signs of being pregnant so if you dont start your cycle in the next week go ahead and do another home test and see what it says you may have tested to early....good luck to you ....and I hope that you get what you want....
