It sounds like you have the "ick." Sorry. I hope you feel better soon. We had the "ick" here for a while. I am starting to feel better but now my son is sick:( It's not fun.

Chills and body aches are not usually typical to pregnancy. I am surprised you don't have a temp.

You can feel that way just from being too tired and worn out. I've gotten that before.

Just go to bed and see how you feel in the morning. Sleep is the best medicine. There's no reason to call the doctor, especially if your not running a temp. Take some Tylenol PM to help you sleep and feel better.

most likely just the flu... have you missed any periods... unless you have significant time since your last period yould would not be receiving any pregnancy symptoms
