man you must have wrote the book. you know so much!!!
so w/ everything I wrote in my other post.. if you were guessing, and I am preggers how far along would you guess I am w/ these symptoms... being I have no clue where to start?!?!

I found another site like a old forum from 2005 where like 20 women all had sore throats/ mucus drainage/ ear aches when they were 5-9 dpo.. and i've had one now going on day 3. its not a horrible sore throat is like my ears & head is draining mucus down the back of my throat cause a minor sore throat...
and I never ever get sick...

Yes, you can have symptoms a week or two before a positive result because of the corpeus luteum. When you ovulate, a small cyst (corpeus luteum) forms on the ovary. It is benign and goes away. Anyway, if that egg is fertilized, the cyst will elevate levels of progesterone which make you feel VERY VERY tired (almost catatonic sometimes). Implantation causes the crampy feeling. There are just a lot of hormonal changes.

HCG is what a home pregnancy test measures. It is detected once the placenta takes over for the corpus luteum and that hormone passes through your urine. When the levels are high enough, a home pregnancy test can detect you are pregnant.
