hi there, i just took this from an article in the web, i hope it could help you.
How do you know that you are pregnant? Some women swear that they feel something—an emotional or physical sign—that tells them conception has occurred before they even miss a period. Others are oblivious until they throw up a few times or even until they feel the baby move. And then there are the stories you hear of unsuspecting women delivering full-term babies—which always makes me quote the expression: “Denial ain’t just a river in Africa.”
For most moms-to-be, the first signs of a baby on board are sore breasts and a late period. Other common early pregnancy experiences include:
Abnormal period
Breast soreness
Change in appetite
Constipation
Difficulty concentrating
Fatigue
Feeling totally normal
Frequent urination
Lightheadedness
Mild cramps
Mood swings and being overly emotional
Nausea or vomiting
Sensitivity to odors
If you think you might be pregnant, a home pregnancy test will give you the answer.
So how do you choose from the overwhelming number of tests on the drugstore shelf? Lucky for us, Consumer Reports recently analyzed pregnancy test kits. They found that all home pregnancy tests were easy to use. First Response, Answer Quick & Simple, and ClearBlue Easy all produced result lines that were more intense than the others, making them the easiest to read.
A timing hint: If you wait for ten minutes before reading the result (instead of the recommended one to five minutes) tests turn positive a few days earlier. Don’t wait longer than ten minutes though. After ten minutes some negative tests start to look faintly positive. (For an interesting cautionary tale about false readings, check out what Meg has to say on her terrific website, peeonastick.com.)
If your test is negative and you still think you might be pregnant, repeat the test in a week—maybe you conceived a bit later than you thought. If you are not pregnant but still missing your periods or having odd symptoms, your doctor or midwife can help you determine the cause.

Usually any faint line is considered a positive! All the symptoms you describe can be from pregnancy and if you haven't had a period since May, that little "fishy" you feel could very well be a baby moving. Good Luck!

First thing in the morning take a pregnancy test. That usually gives you the most accurate reading. But from experience I would say that you are pregnant. So congratulations 8-)

Yeah probaly if you are usually normal with your periods then yes you are preg. I always felt like swimming movements when i was preg. And home tests dont always work. A dr can do a blood test if need be make sure you tell him/her that you have taken servreal test and they arent working for you. Good luck.

It sure sounds like you could be pregnant,but it could be some other problem that you are having so you will have to wait to be 100% sure till you see your doctor.I know it's hard not knowing for sure whats really going on with your body, I've been there too, so hope you can stand the wait till the 15th!

Go to your doctor. That's the best advice I can give you. Or try a couple of different brands of tests before you go if you want. But definitely go to the doc.
