Q: My Story - a Little Long - Hope to Get Feedback

I've posted before, but here's my story in a nutshell. I just need some input from others. My husband and mom and running out of things to tell me.
I got off the pill on october 30th. I had a period right after and then I had a period dec. 2-6th. My husband and I starting trying this month. I knew when I ovulated and did everything we know is right.
Last cycle was 32 days, but it was my first one off the pill and I don't know what would be regular for me because I didn't wait long enough to see. I've been on the pill for 7 years. So i'm guessing if it's 32 days again i'll start tomorrow.

Well anyway, a week after I ovulated I started with diarrhea, cramping, fatigue, increased hunger, heartburn. The next week I stopped all that and started with a big decrease in hunger. It's like I am always full, but I eat so I don't get sick later on. I also have very sore, red nipples. I also have a lot of cervical mucus. Then, the weirdest thing happened yesterday. It was around 12 noon when I started cooking. I am usually hungry by then, but I wasn't. I started cooking pasta and something about it made me feel like I was going to vomit. I wasn't nauseated, just grossed out by it. I couldn't even eat all of it. I usually like that but I couldn't look at it or eat it.
I feel like for the last three days i've been forcing food down my throat, because i'm always full. Sometimes I feel hungry, but when I take a bite i'm full. I've also had nervous feelings in my stomach.
Also, exactly a week after ovulation I woke up in the middle of the night with a sharp pinching sensation in my lower abdomen right in the center. It was so painful it woke me up, but only lasted a second.

I took the early pregnancy test that you can do 5 days earlier yesterday and it was negative. It usually shows negative right away, but it took the whole 5 minutes for the negative sign to come up.
I also had a few little cramps that feel like my period for the last two days.

I know ya'll are not doctors and can't perform a pregnancy test on me through the internet and only time will tell, but I just wanted some feedback. If I don't start by thursday i'll take another test.

I'm afraid that my symptoms may be a sign of my period instead of pregnancy and we'll be disappointed. I've never had symptoms of my period on the pill besides for cramping.

They dont sound like period symtoms to me! I had all of those symptoms when I first found out I was pregnant...I would try testing again after you miss your period. Or within the next week or so. I am throwing baby dust your way girl! Good luck!
