Question

I had my period six days ago, but I feel strange and I'm wondering if I should take an HPT anyway.

My period started six days ago. It was one day late, but my cycle has been known to fluctuate by a day. It was a strange period. It wasn't short or light, but it seemed to stop and start a lot. Nevertheless, it lasted 3 days and filled pads, so I figured I wasn't pregnant. But last night I started feeling nauseous. And I've been ridiculously tired and irritable. That said, we're moving in two weeks, so it could all just be stress. But we've moved before and this hasn't happened. Would it be crazy to take an HPT? I'm trying to tell myself it's all in my head. I want to be pregnant so badly. We've been TTC for over a year. So yeah, lots of reasons to think I'm not pregnant. I just feel strangely different.

I would second with munchkin on that ...but if your period was that heavy it might as well be your period. But just to put your mind at rest do an hpt.
N surely you are not crazy and alone in this!!
