It is a bit too early to speculate on whether you are pregnant or not it may be that you are just experiencing a bit of pre menstrual symptoms before your next period. Otherwise you will just have to wait and see hun.

Hi,
Usually you start noticing changes and symptoms between 5-8 weeks and as you had your period three weeks ago it means you you ovulated roughly a week ago and i think it's too soon to notice anything. You might still be pregnant but don't think what you're feeling is morning sickness...yet. Wait for your next pweiod to come and if it doesn't, take the test. Know it doesn't give much answers but it is the best way to find out as it is still so early. I found out i was pregnant at about 6 weeks cause my period was late, i felt a bit 'funny' and different till about 10 weeks and then i had terrible morning sickness till about 16 weeks.
What you are feeling might just be the 'in between periods' feeling.
Hope this helps and Good Luck!

Yes you can begin experiencing symptoms of pregnancy before a missed period. This is because of the hormones in your body. Sometimes however some of the more common symptoms like sore breasts, fatigue, bloating etc can be similar to those experienced before your regular period which are PMT. However feeling or being sick is generally not related so much to PMT & if you are not actually unwell with a bug then it could be a hopefull sign. There are test on the market which can be used up to 4 days before a missed period, or a blood test at the doctors can detect pregnancy much earlier. Otherwise sit tight & fingers crossed for you! Good luck!

I had some symptoms of pregnancy before my period was due and they were
The need to wee more often
A metallic taste in my mouth
Sore breasts that were also slightly more swollen than usual.
It is perfectly possible to have symptoms before you are due on. You would need to wait until the latest date that your period should be due and then add a few days onto that before testing as if you test too early you will probably end up with a negative result. I had to wait a week after my period was due before my result came back positive, all the ones I did before then were negative. Anyway i have my fingers crossed for you and hope that you are. Goodluck x

Answer
A couple of symptoms you could possibly notice in early pregnancy are:
missed menstrual period
nausea, with or without vomiting
fatigue
breast changes and breast tenderness
frequent urination
If you have missed your period, then I suggest you see your family physician. Symptoms are not really noticable until around the 5th week of conception, but your first big hint would be of course a missed period.
Answer
YES, your breasts do hurt and tingle a lot. I would wait until your period was due and if you don't get it go get a pregnancy test.

It is possible to start feeling symptoms from the onset of conception... rare, but possible, especially nausea... it is more common to start noticing them around the time that you are due for your period. This is because ovulation is generally two weeks after your period, then it can take 8-10 days for implantation which takes you pretty much up to the date of your next scheduled period. It is after the implantation that most symptoms will begin to occur.
Best to wait and not to get your hopes up/or worry, give it a few days after you period is late (if it is) before testing.
Good luck

Yes you can get pregnancy symptoms before you tested that is why a lot of woman do the test in the first place.
Fatigue
Morning sickness ( which occurs any time of day)
Implantation bleeding
Tender breasts
Cravings

Yes, it's probable you would get symptoms before you test - that's why most people do the test - to check their hunch. It's a bit early for you, but wait a week or so and test, to be sure
