Default Pregnancy question

I know there are a lot of "Am I pregnant?" threads on here, but I am looking for a bit of information. First off, when is a women most fertile? I've read up on a bit, but gotten some different information regarding it.

Also, what is the possibility that I am pregnant if I had sex with my husband 2 days after I stopped menstruating? We had unprotected sex, and I am not on any birth control. I have not taken a test yet, as I haven't missed a period yet, but it's getting close.

Can anyone help me out please? I will add some of my symptoms if that helps.
-Very tired. Scratch that, I'm exhausted most of the time. I take naps more often.
-Slight abdominal pain, mostly in my "ovaries" (it feels like it's there, pain is mostly on my sides).
-Frequent urination. Started a few weeks ago.
-I feel bloated. I am a bigger woman, yes, but not so big that I can't tell when I'm bloated.
-Backaches. Mostly lower, but not extreme pain. Feels like I pulled a muscle.
-Higher body temperature. This just started last night. I felt feverish, and my husband even commented, "You look different." I woke up today feeling fine, but still my body temp. is a bit high, as I feel hot. I am not sick.
-No gagging or morning sickness. I heard some women don't get it. My appetite is a little off, I am not as hungry as usual. I do feel like I'm going to be sick if I eat sometimes. I am eating 3 meals a day, though.
-Haven't noticed any increased sensitivity to smells. I am already very sensitive to smells as it is.
-My boobs are still the same size (I think). I am bigger breasted, so it would be harder for me to tell I'd think.

I think that's about it. Oh, I was pregnant earlier this year, but I miscarried. We had no idea I was even pregnant until I miscarried, because I took a test, and it said "negative".

I am going to take a pregnancy test today, but, I am thinking that even if I am pregnant, it might say negative because it did last time. I hope not, though

Oh, one more question, do you have to have spotting to be pregnant? I have not had any spotting at all.

Hey im in the same boat cramping in the back very mooding and my apperance is changing and i am feeling very bloated and my appetite has also decreased. I also missed my period had one neg. test and one positive test. So i think you should go to the doctor and get blood done they are always more better than urine.

Default maybe this might help with questions

i'm can't remember what the rules are for posting direct links for other sites here.. but for information and learning about fertility and just the details explaining VERY clearly how women's cycles work and all of that... i found it extremely helpful! so, incase i can't post the direct link, you can google "fertilityfriend" it should bring it up. its a free subscription, they have so much data and tutorials... maybe it'll be helpful for you as well.

Well I took a test tonight and it was negative. I'm thinking I took it too early, though. I haven't missed my period quite yet, and I didn't wait for the morning urine. I am thinking I am going to wait about a week or so, if no period, I'll take the second test.

Default Maybe help?

I just found out I am pregnant with my first child, so I am by no means an expert, lol but I didnt spot at all. However, my back hurt, I had cramps, my head hurt, I was (still am) tired all the time, I pee every 5 minutes, my best friend says I have "canine scenes," (I smell EVERYTHING!) and am moody as . I do have morning sickness, and by "morning sickness" I mean I am sick ALL the time. However, my apatite is bigger. I am always eating, just in really small portions. I get about half way through a meal, and feel sick. I have learned that if I eat healthy food, I dont get as sick. Oh, and my boobs are gigantic! I have a fairly large bust as is, but now I feel like I am going to topple over! lol Not to mention they hurt like no other!

Just some of my experiences..

Thanks for the replies, everyone. I had class today at 2:30, and I couldn't get out of bed until 1pm. I was sooo tired. It'd ridiculous how tired I am today. I went to bed at around 2am. I have been tired a lot lately, like exhausted. I feel like I've been up since 6am and just constantly doing something.

I started to feel sick to my stomach today. I don't quite feel like I could throw up, but I think if I smelled something bad, I would. My back still hurts. It has for weeks now. No headaches, but then again, I get headaches often as it is.

When I took my test last night, the "negative" line was pretty light. It wasn't very definitive. I am going to wait a while before I take the other test, though. I miscarried at the beginning of the year, and I've read if you miscarried, then get pregnant months later, you can get a negative reading for a while. Can anyone verify this for me?
