I just have to tell someone

I'm just visiting from The Nest. Ok so here's my situation: I think I'm pregnant but I don't know for sure. Here's why:

I'm on the pill, but there was a time a few weeks ago that I forgot to take it. And I have a feeling that I am pretty fertile. I got my period when I was 10 and have had a 28-day cycle ever since, like clock-work. The women in my family are blessed with having many "surprise" pregnancies. I know that this isn't a guarantee about my fertility but I have a hunch.   

Also, DH and I (been married 2 months) recently started having sex w/o a condom - around the time that I missed my pill. 

Another thing: I've been having the classic symptoms - sore boobs, frequent urination, fatigue, I've been emotional lately and recently, I've started having what I think is morning sickness. The only thing is that I haven't missed a period. AF starts in 4 days.

The only thing that is making me think I'm not pregnant is that I've taken 2 tests (one a week ago and one an hour ago) and they were both negative. But I'm second-guessing myself because the first one was taken too early and I should have taken the second test in the morning. Luckily, I have another test left over, but I don't know when to take it. Tomorrow morning? Or would that be too early before my missed period.

Another thing that's throwing me off is that I just started a new full-time job and I'm wondering if the stress of that new experience is causing some of my "symptoms." 

Just needed to vent but if you have any advice, I'll take it. Thanks!

I had every classic pregnancy symptom last cycle, and I most definitely wasn't pregnant. My period started last Thursday.

Wait until your period is due. If it's late, test. If not, you have your answer.

Not to give you false hope. I tested when I was about 3 weeks and then about 5 weeks and they were negative. I only got a positive around 8 weeks. Wait and see if you period comes first.
