Mommy To Be.?

Hi,!!!
I've been married for 2 years (I'm 20 years old.)  4 months ago me & my husband were toying with the idea of having a baby. & At first it was just a thought, I was still on birth control. A month ago "baby fever" REALLY hit me hard & I got excited over the idea of me being a mommy. So I stop taking my pill & we started trying for a baby.  REALLY TRYING.! & nothing......!
Last week is when weird stuff started happening,
I was in bed by 11pm
Tired by 4pm
I craved sweets (still do).
I was getting cramps
BLOATED (still am)
headaches
(I work in a restaurant) my co-worker gave me leftover rice & I almost burst into tears.
some what sore boobs
Last night (this morning rather) I decided at 5:45am to take a pregnancy test.
& a little less than a minute later I got the faintest positive EVER.! I had to take the test apart to make sure I what I was seeing was correct. A positive.!
Here's the kicker, I have weird irregular cycles so I don't always ovulate the day I think I do.
according to my last period I ovulated on July 8th, but that wasn't the only day I had stretchy cervical mucus.
Long story short I have NO idea when I got pregnant.  July 8th was the only day I was really "trying to get pregnant" & there's no way in hell I would have a positive test in a week. Once I get a stronger positive (hopefully) I will go to my doctor & find out when I conceived.
I guess the best way to get pregnant is to stop trying.! :P
