Period today???? But haven't have any usual PMS symptoms for me

[USMC1903]

My period is supposed to arrive today, but i have had none of my usual pms  which is cramping, bloating, crankiness. Instead i've been experiencing nausia, headaches, huge mood swings like night and day, increase in acene, tender boobs, sleeping ALL the time, and really really bad cravings. Pregnant? I have NO MONEY at all for a pregnancy not even a $.99 test. So telling me to test isn't an option

We are just letting a pregnancy happen since we had a misccariage 2 months ago.We are both extremely fertile as we are learning. 

Any thoughts or comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks

 Well save your pennies and test when you can. When baby comes breastfeed and maybe use cloth diapers.

You do realize babies are expensive right? Just curious how your going to have money for a baby if you can't get a .99 pregnancy test?

If you don't get your period in the next week or so, go to a doctor. Its hard to tell sometimes with pms and pregnancy because some of the symptoms are similar (cramping, tender/swollen breasts).  If you're pregnant  you can sign up for Medicaid and it will help with medical expenses, but you have to be pregnant and provide medicaid with proof  of pregnancy.  Try not to stress over it though!

For one I am aware of how expensive babies are because I've had one before. She's 2 now. I'm broke because I'm in between jobs currently and all my money went to rent food gas and insurance. So no i don't have spare change at the moment.

My fiance and I are getting married in October so my medical will be covered by the military. My good friend who is a doctor told me to wait and see like one of you suggested. I just hate waiting even though i know i have to. 

Usually i don't have nausea, tender/swollen breasts, and really bad mood swings. So that's what tipped me off a few days ago. I started spotting today in the evening but it's a brownish/pink discharge only when i wipe. I've never had this before. My periods are usually heavy and start in the beginning of the day, always have. (sorry for the TMI) 

Thank you so much to the helpful comments it helped a lot.

Do u think you should be not preventing pregnancy if you can't even afford a test? I hope for you and your babies sake you aren't. Save up some money and try again later. Babies are expensive

Oaky. I am AWARE of how exspensive babies are. I don't have any spending change right now because i just PAID my bills. With my fiance being AWAY it leaves me broke AFTER I PAID HIS AND MY BILLS. Just so we are clear. We ARE IN A POSITION   be to able to afford a child. Currently at the moment i have no spare change.

My fiance and i want a child and are getting married in a few months once he comes home. He is sending me a couple bucks for emergency use.

I would just wait it out mama and see what happens in the next few days! Good luck :)

Go to a lifecare center and get a free test taken. It's kinda sad you're unable to pay for a test. are you sure now is a good time for you to have kids?

Wow I love how some of you don't read the comments before you post. I would say wait it out and try not to think about it too much because you can actually overthink it and the symptoms will occur because of that. And ignore the ones who are saying its sad you can't afford a pregnancy test..I understand when bills get paid you don't have lot of money left over. Good luck and I hope when you can get the spare change together that you get the result you want!
