Pregnant or Have Cysts or losing my mind...

[Emmariel]

A little background:

I'm 28 and have been married to my wonderful DH for 2 1/2 years. We have been TTC #1 for a little over a year. My cycle has always been totally irregular. I am overweight. The last few months I have been working out and eating healthy and have lost 22 pounds. My cycles have started to get shorter (closer to normal). Last month it was 47 days. Before that it was around 60. This cycle, we had sex on CD13, CD 14 and CD17. Today is CD21. I have weird cramping that feels sort of like pinching (different than menstrual cramps). My lower back is sore. I'm off and on nauseous and I have a headache. Super emotional. All of this started on Friday and is still happening today. One of my very close friends is 6 weeks pregnant and thinks my symptoms sound like hers did about a month ago.

My mom has cysts on her ovaries that cause weird cramping midcycle but I never have before.

So, I've been TTC for a long time and have never had symptoms like this...but I think it's unlikely that I could really be only a week pregnant and have all of these symptoms. I'm worried that I just want to be pregnant so badly that I've somehow tricked my body into thinking I am.

I don't know. What do you all think? I can't take a test for 6 more days.
