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 pcos and I have a 3 year old daughter. I don't thing I'm pregnant but I get fluttering all the time. Feel exactly how it felt the first time I felt my daughter start moving. If anyone can tell me why this is happening I would love to know. Every time I feel it I get sad because I miss being pregnant and right now I can't get pregnant because I don't think I'm ovulating :((

Im 23 and Ive never been pregnant. Me and my boyfriend been together for almost 5 years. So 6 days after my last period for 2 days he's came inside. Its been a week since then but ive been having this weird sensation in my stomach mostly around my belly button. Ive been gassy and having lose stool. I know its way to soon. My next period isnt for another week and a half. But this sensation weird feeling in my stomach is making me think that i could be pregnant. Just wanted to share what I'm feeling.

Hi. I'm 19. I want to throw it out there that at this point, it's too early for a hpt. It's about 7dpo, and for the last two days I feel this light swooshing in my lower abdomen.

First off, my period was on time. But I had heinous cramps that made me want to cry and it only lasted about three days.

I am on birth control, but my prescription ran out and I didn't get a refill on time, so I missed two pills while I was fertile. At the time, I had no idea what was going on in there, I hardly track my cycle.

Today I was researching why I've been having such strong sexual urges (I am not a sexual person), and I found out, it started when the calendar said I was ovulating, and the first two days, I had unprotected sex without a contraceptive.

It's only been a little more than a week now, but I've been feeling very strange and different. I have anxiety, but lately it's off the wall and I feel sick. I've been very emotional too, like earlier, my bf was "ignoring" me and I just about started bawling until I realized it was completely irrational, he works for a living. And the worst has been this flutter. It's not quite a vibration like a cell phone. It's very faint and pulsates stronger every few seconds. I also have throbbing back pain.

I've been researching today about very early pregnancy, the very first symptoms you feel. And some women have said that they knew the next day. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but I feel crazy. Especially since my boyfriend and I specifically do not want to be pregnant, so I know it's not in my head. And it's not gas either, because I feel it in a different location.

Take a test! not to sound rude but IF you have had sex you could be pregnant! that is the way to get pregnant... only thing that is 100% preventive is to not have sex. But... with my first child i kept feeling like I was going to start my period... everything was normal (with the way i should have been feeling and around the right time...) BUT my period never came... I just kept feeling like I was going to start... then one day i woke up puking! my husband tried to tell me it was stress but i know my body and stress doesn't affect me that way! Good luck to you!! you can get a test at the dollar store by the way... all test are practically the same! just sometimes you have to ask for them from behind the counter!
