A fertilized egg-cell requires 8-10 days before embedding itself in the uterus. This is why it's best to wait until an expected menstrual period arrives late before performing a pregnancy test...it takes that amount of time for the egg cell to settle. The symptoms that you mention (light spotting, nausea, bloated lower abdomen, back pains, breast tenderness, burping…) are not definite signs of pregnancy, but are subjective signs and symptoms that are also present in other conditions.
