is it all in my head or am i really pregnant?

My fiance and i are trying to have a baby.. we had sex and attempted to try to concieve on feb 7 while i was ovulating. my period is 2 days late and im getting sympoms of my period such as cramps and mood swings but it hasnt come yet. i have also experienced issues common to.early pregnancy such as sleepiness, reduced sex drive, sore breasts and im not sure if its all in my head

my question is, are these symptoms common enough to assume im pregnant and to take the test now or wait until the end of the week to take it?

also it takes 7-10 days for the egg to implant into the uterine wall. So until then your body doesn't know it pregnant. Its not a true pregnancy until you miss your period because you still are at risk for having a early miscarriage if the egg doesn't implant well.

not true your body doesn't even realize its pregnant when you first conceive. When the embryo starts producing the hcg hormone is when your body notices it. Don't try to correct me.

^ that isn't true. You begin to have symptoms as soon as you're pregnant. Every pregnancy varies. Some women have symptoms and others don't at all. With my first pregnancy I never had any symptoms. But the only way to know is to take a test, good luck!!!:)

wait until you miss a period, also you wouldn't be having symptoms so early.
