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

Thanks to everyone, for the feedback.

Even though I've never had that feeling, before (and I had it again, today), I've just decided it was gas. Again, I don't think that I am pregnant, but some part of me does. It sort of drives me nuts, and I feel somewhat crazy, sometimes. Now I have a doctor's appt. on Friday, so I'll see what's up.

Today, I saw a video of myself (taken today, as well)...I was so taken aback, because my stomach looked pregnant. I usually have a flat stomach, but it looked like a pregnant belly! Not "chub". It completely caught me off guard, because I realy didn't know if I was imagining that. So, it's obviously there. But... I'll see on Friday.
Again, thanks for the feedback.

I to had a baby and at the time I was thinking that I had the flu but then I start feeling that same fluttery and everyone called me crazy. Well let's say it was not the flu and I was pregnant. Mt son is now 6 years old and will be 7. I am now going through the same thing now the fluttery and I think I'm pregnant but everyone once again think I'm crazy but everyone knows their bodies.

I've had the same fluttery sensation and I've had my tubes tied/burned.  So, I know that I'm not pregnant, but at the time I have these sensations, I am not very gassy.  I am not sure what they are.  The only thing that fits is that they are muscle contractions.  Just part of getting older.  How old are you?  I do have to say that after 3 kids, my first reaction is that I'm pregnant and the baby is moving.  It's the SAME sensation.  Exactly!  So, I hope for your sake that you ARE pregnant, it's the most wonderful thing in the world, except for your children.  Good luck!

i'm 20 yrs old and sexually active and have been in a long term relationship sense i was 14. I have had the same fluttery sensations but it's not just in my abdonmen but also my sides and in my kidneys. I wish i could get it checked because i to along with many women am driveng myself nuts wondering that P word. I know condoms are not 100% safe, but i have normal periods. I pray that i am not pregnant. even though i would be a very nurturing mother and would never think about adoption or abortion I am not ready to be a mother. However this is not something i can get checked due to no health insurance....any suggestions or ideas on what the heck this could be....there not painfull just different and awkward..never felt these sensations before....they are on and off all day long
