You sound pregnant to me. Go get a home pregnancy test ASAP and then quit smoking as soon as you can (not only is it good for the baby, but it will probably make you feel better). Cut back on caffeine and spicy foods and keep tums handy if you are already getting hearburn. Weight gain so soon is not good though, you don't really want to gain weight for the first few months.

From my experience of just having my first baby recently, I know that after just 2 days of being late that you will more than likely have no symptoms. You wont be gaining weight or anything like that for at least a few months if you are pregnant. The best advice i can give you is to go to the store and do a few pregnancy tests in a few days. That way you gave your body time to catch up with the normal routine. Sometimes a body can be late and it doesnt mean a whole lot. However if in a few days you dont get your period, do the tests, and if you still feel unsure, go to the doctor to get an exam. Even the slightest doubt is worth making an appointment for. Make sure when you do the home tests that you do more than one just in case there is a faulty one. Sometimes that happens. Its rare but most people would rather buy two tests then realize two months later that the test was wrong and they were actually pregnant. Best wishes and I hope everything turns out for the best.

If you have taken Tums or Pepto Bismol lately for your heartburn, that could explain the copper taste in your mouth. Maybe you have too much acid in your stomach and smoking is aggravating it, which could explain the heartburn and nausea from smoking. Sometimes my PMS symptoms vary from month to month. You could be retaining water which could cause you to bloat, and your hormones could be high which could explain your distaste for food. Unless your boobs start to get really tender, I wouldn't worry about it. I have experienced all these symptoms sometimes on a regular monthly basis and I'm not pregnant, it's just PMS and high level of hormones. Some months, I can't seem to eat enough, while the next month I'm starving but nothing sounds good at all. If your heartburn is intolerable, talk to your doctor about acid reflux, for the bloating, pop a midol, as far as smoking, I know how it is, my stomach gets upset occasionally after smoking because cigarettes actually create more acid in your stomach, so cut back or deal with it. So like I said before, I have these same symptoms every other month before I start my cycle, that's actually how I know I'm going to start, Sometimes it just sucks being a woman and having to go thru all this every month, but whatcha goin to do!

water weight from pms can make you gain weight a lot of it is a little early though. you can actually pick up a pregnancy test at the dollar store if you don't want to spend the money. if you had sex about a week and a half or two weeks ago you very well could be pregnant. i would just buy a test the more you stress the later you can become with your period. then you'll really be a mess.

If you don't have a period in the next week or so I would recommend getting a home pregnancy test to see if you are pregnant. I know that taste. It is like eating copper. If you are only two days late don't panic yet sometimes that happens to us. If you have cramps that is a good sign that you are probably going to start. Good Luck

Yes, smoking will make you nauseous. Bloating is a sign, I don't know about heart burn, but probably. If you breasts become tender soon, then you most defiantly are. Not just nipples, your whole breast. It is still close to your time, so I wouldn't worry too much, until your breasts hurt or a week passes. Good luck to you. If you are worrying just go get a test and put your mind at ease either way.

All of those symptoms could be related to something that is not pregnancy. The only way to tell if you are pregnant is to take a pregnancy test. Go buy one now!
Anytime a woman is sexually active and fertile, it's possible for pregnancy. It is not something that anyone can diagnose over the net.

It is possible if smoking makes you sick that is defininetly a sign. Also if your sense of smell seems to be more keen that could also be a sign. Thats how I knew I was pregnant everything seemed to smell alot stronger, and my husbands cologne made me sick and the smell of cigarette smoke made me sick. Everything made me sick..LOL
Go and get a first response pregnancy test.

it's possible...i've heard about the funny taste in your mouth..but as far as the heartburn...that comes at the end of a pregnancy...not the beginning...get a test and you'll know for sure..
