Okay so me and my husband have been trying to have a baby for the past 5 months....and my last period was on Nov. 17th....now since then we have been having sex every other day since last night. Now I was suppose to get my period yesterday, the 20th but it never came and still is not here. However, my body is feeling weird....but I am not sure if they are sign of pregnancy or just that I might be getting sick. My symptoms are:
1. Missed period
2. Hot flashes
3. Soar Throat - almost like burning
4. Headache for the past 4 days
5. Little tired
PS. I also took a test on the 18th and it was negative but I dont know if I tested too early?
Please help! I really wanna know if its worth me buying a test.

Sweetie, I don't really know what to tell you. If you want to go to the expense of buying a test I would suggest buying the kind that comes with two test in it. I say that because it is still very early for you to be doing an at home test. Now if you have a doctor that will order a blood test this early for you it will be 100% accurate even this early. Some doctors will not order one this early tho because you could still start your period.
I also wanted to tell you that #2,3,& 4 are not exclusively signs of pregnancy. In fact in all the years that I have been doing this I have never heard of hot flashes or a sore throat as a sign of pregnancy. Most women find that they have severe fatigue in early pregnancy. So, based on your symptoms I could not say one way or the other. The most important thing would be the lack of a period but you can not say that just a few days late is a missed period.
I really hope that you get the test results that you want! I know how hard it is when you want to be pregnant!
Good luck and I will be hoping for you!
Blessings

I am 6 weeks pregnant and had every one of them symptoms when I was a week or so pregnant. Now I am definitely pregnant and not having one symptom besides my missed period. But in the first couple weeks I would just start sweating for nothing and every morning I would wake up with a sore throat and a mild headache. I have 3 children at home so of course I am always tired. I think you should definitely buy a HPT. You have to be sure. Good luck to you and let me know how it turns out.

Listen,it sounds like you are having flu like symptoms.Do not waste your money yet.I have had a few kids in my life no symptoms of sore throat,but you are cute.The best time to conceive is when you are ovulating.This is like 2 weeks before your period.You want to take your temp before you even get out of bed for a month and then make a graph to see when your temp drops this is when it is prim time to call in the man.For assurance afterwards allivate your buttocks with a couple of pillows and relax for a few hours.It will take you a good month to figure out when you are at peek point,but anything worth having is worth waiting for....Merry Christmas

I dont think that hot flashes, and sore throats are pregnancy sympotoms but every one is different!!
You can use a store bought pregnancy test on the first day of your missed period, so you are ready to test again!!
Good Luck!!

There is a bug going around with a sore throat and hot flashes, I had it last week but I also had my peroid last week when I was sick so I would just test again and see.

Sounds like the flu.. But if you want to take a test. I would take a Dollar Store test so you don't waste you're money. They work just as good as a $10 test.
