worried i might be pregnant...but not sure at all!

it's been i guess a month and a half since i THINK i may have gotten pregnant. ive always been around 120 and if i ever gained any weight it was five pounds and i could get rid of it without any trouble. well over over the course of october i noticed i was increasingly more and more hungry. i used to be satisfied with eating once or twice a day and now it seems like im constantly hungry. i gained about 15 pounds in four weeks, which to me is a shockingly short amount of time to gain so much weight. my abdomen potrudes out and is hard not flabby feeling. my breasts are tender similar to everyone else not to mention they've gotten massive! haha. pants that use to fit loosely i find myself FORCING on now-a-days. i feel naseous when i smell certain smells. i am constantly tired.

the reason im so perplexed is because i took a pregnancy test in mid october right when i first started notcing my abdomen changing shape and the result was negative. so i just started dieting and excercising. well around the beginning of november i had seen absolutely NO results and my abdomen had gotten bigger. so i took yet another test that was also negative. i had my period in october but it was only a few days and im two days late now. im really frustrated and confused and to embarrassed to go to a doctor and have them just tell me im fat! haha.

are these symptoms similar to anyone else? ive never been pregnant before so im not sure if im just being paranoid about gaining weight.

thanks!

it must be confusing to feel pg and have neg tests. i suggest going to see your dr. there are several things that could cause your stomach to swell and a false neg could be one.

Unusual weight gain is a reason to see the doc anyway.  Don't be ashamed to go for that symptom.  Believe me, they've seen it all.

You will not gain weight in early pregnancy. If you have any symptoms and have missed period that's the first sign of pregnancy. I suggest visit doc ASAP. They will tell you in what situation you are. All the best.

I agree with the others, see your Dr.  That's alot to gain so fast, maybe something else is going on, I never gained that quickly with pregnancy, but we are all different.  Good luck.
