Wondering if you've got a baby on board? Pay close attention to your body. "The hormones released as soon as you conceive may start causing subtle changes even before they're detectable on a home pregnancy test," says Melissa Goist, MD, clinical assistant professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the Ohio State University Medical Center. Unfortunately many, like sore breasts or bloating, also happen right before your period (a sure sign that you're not pregnant), so it's all a guessing game until you take a test. But if you spot a few of the following symptoms -- and your period is MIA -- it may be time to head to the drugstore or your ob-gyn:
I stopped my birth control pills last month, and had sex on ovulation period. This month period didn't come yet, but I still got negative and breast tender, nausea, headache, sensitivities increased. What should I do?

11/19/2009 10:03:16 AM Report AbuseI have taken two hpt's and both have shown to be negative. My breasts are tender but not too bad. However, my lower abdominals are killing me and have just been feeling somewhat uncomfortable the past few days. My husband and I are trying to have a baby but I am not sure if all of these pains are caused from the depo provera shot that I have now been off of for 3 months and have regained my regular period. I am due for my period anyday but just feel different. Could the tests be wrong?
