Fluttery feeling in lower abdomen

I'm new to this site. I'm not sure where to find an answer to this. I will try and make this short...

I've been wondering if I am pregnant, for a while, now. All pregnancy tests, are coming back negative. I try putting it out of my head, telling myself I am not, but the symptoms are still there. They haven't gone away. I am gaining weight, my stomach looks/feels bigger. I won't list all of my symptoms, because they are your typical pregnancy symptoms. But I will be getting a blood test, in this next week. I could possibly be 2 months pregnant, but I just don't know.

Just a few minutes ago, I got this really strange feeling in my lower abdomen. Like a fluttery feeling. I thought..."Okay, that was weird. Maybe it was just nothing." About a minute later, I got it again. Pause. And again. I've never felt anything like it, before. I felt it coming from my uterus, area.

I know that it is probably way too early, to be feeling any baby movement (if I'm even pregnant), but I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this/knows what it could be, or if it's just nothing. Even though it didn't feel like "nothing".

Thank you very much. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Take care. <3

I have had some intetesting feeing and haapening lately.  On the 7th of january I quit my cycle. It was 2 wks long and a constant flow.  That is a lil un normal for me. A week latter on the 13th I started spotting. I have never had that happen before so I went to my dr and she said it looked as if I was having another cycle. That is very strange for me, sge took a pt and it was ne. She said ot could b too early. I haven't had any other symptoms pf being preg. Me and my fiance have been trying for a a lil over a month. (i know its not very long} but we do it every night.  I was wondering if itchy breasts and butterflies in your stomach meant anything I get tested again on Monday. I'm hoping for a yes.  But does anyone have some answers??

wow so i have like all of the exact same symptoms as you minus the period bc i had mirena inserted two years ago but my luck i would be one of the  8 in 1000 women lol but like i also feel movement and see my stomach move and i have been so afraid to tell anyone bc of my mirena and two negative preg tests (however i know three women who became pregnant with mirena ugh)but anyways i feel like people are going to treat me like a complete idea and blow me off...i havent had a pregnancy scare like the entire time ive had mirena but right now i am freaking out i mean something should not be moving around in your stomach consistantly almost every time you lay down for over a week i am also crazy moody and i two keep snapping at my man just like i did when i was pregnant ( but havent done again until recently) all of these things are driving me crazy i took the tests almost two months ago but i am just at a loss as of what to do...by the way you can tell your doctor that some women especially mommys that already have babies feel fetal movements in as early as 13 weeks and i know multiple women who had their menstrual cycle for several months in and sometimes their entire pregnancy lol oh and haha super funny i was totally also just promoted to management at work (but i work in a hotel so its not super amazing but i love it lol :) and i am also 21 :) and my guy is 22 but i have two babies a 3 year old girl bella and a two year old boy jeremy but having them so close together has actually been such a blessing although it is sort of difficult to give both of them equal attention bc of the crazy stages they go through they love each other more than anything they are wonderful playmates and are so clearly going to be lifelong friends its exhausting but worth it :) so you shouldnt stress out about that part of it lol :) but update us on what happens :)

ugh so heres a crazy story i have had the iud mirena since my two and a half year old son was six weeks..since its been in place i have heard nothing but horror stories about women who use this particular form of birth control becoming pregnant with multiples (three of whom i know) making me on edge and very nervous (i love my children more than anything but i am just not a happy pregnant person i am hoping to do foster-adopt soon bc there are so many children whose needs are not met and i feel i could do that but a pregnancy would prolong this) anyways a few months ago i started having typical pregnancy symptoms nausia, tender breasts, headaches, that feeling cant explain it but most moms know what i mean im sure, mood swings (but im a mommy with a three year old and two year old so ya know lol) ect ect i took two hpt both came back negative but i assumed if i was having syptoms that did in fact mean pregnancy my hormones would be high enough to read positive on a test..anyways i wrote this off and my symptoms soon decreased however a little over a week ago i stood up from sitting only five minutes and my lef was completely numb so much so that i literally fell over this happened three times on this particular day it hasnt happened since but i attributed it to my fibromyalgia and blew it off as well but like a week ago i began to feel movements that felt exactly how it felt when i began to feel movement in my previous pregnancys i also typically only notice them at night when i lay down however i have noticed them a few times in the car ride home from work and well sitting here at my comp lol i currently just accepted a new employment position and am in between health care providers at the moment so a doctor visit would be rather expensive without my former insurance providers assistance i intend to get another pregnancy test but i am unsure if i should go to my doctor it feels so weird to say so hey theres something moving in my stomach lol im so confused anyways i was just wondering if anyone has had anything similar happen or if anyone has any suggestions on what this may be other than gas (lets just say my intestinal patterns have not changed and i have no uumm symptoms lol :) obviously i will go to the doctor but like those crazy commercials say there is way to much data overload to find any actual answers online and i would like to go into my doctors office slightly more educated i appreciate your time and thank you so much for your concern all feedback is welcome...:) God bless...
