So What Happened?

Just to update everyone I want to the Health Unit today and went a head with test although they really didn't want to give me one since it was the middle of the day...Well the test came back that I was not pregnant...They told I could come back in a few weeks if I was still feeling the way I have and if my cycle is still missed up...So for now I"m just waiting to see what happens

It won't hurt anything to take a pregnancy test to ease your mind, as the ones at the drug store are very reliable and not terribly expensive. I can tell you that I went through a similar thing after my third child. I thought I was pregnant because my breasts got very tender. Turned out that my body was just changing and it's now a regular sign that my period is about to start. When pregnant, it was a sure sign of my pregnancy, so things can definately change biologically over time!
If you both are excited about having another baby, and you are not currently pregnant, it might be the time to get married (assuming this is in the future plans anyway and you have decided to commit to this man), and consider an addition to your family! It's always a nice thing when everyone is on board with the idea. =)

Yes, have the test. But, if you are thinking he is good enough to be the father to your child, please seriously consider getting married. Children do better when they have both a mother. a father and a stable family. The statistics are quite clear; far less delinquency, teenage pregnancy, dropping out, suicide and other measures of pathology when children have two parents who are in the home and committed to rearing them together!
