Do ya'll think I'm preg or just going nuts. . . ?

I have been off of my birth control pill for two months now, this is my second cycle. Last month my cycle lasted for 21 days, so I don't know if that is how long my cycles are going to be from here on out or not. HOWEVER I have a feeling that this month my cycle is the same length - 21 days - because I truly believe that I had mittelschmerz pain (where you can feel yourself ovulating) only a couple days after my period ended, on day 6 of my cycle (early, huh?). According to a 21-day cycle, the day when I felt the mittelschmerz would be exactly around the time that I ovulated, so my suspicions were confirmed.
I haven't had any symptoms except for a heightened sense of smell.
Honestly, I have felt like I KNEW that I was pregnant since the day that I felt the ovulation pains. I had sex twice that day, twice the day before that and then continuously every day after that as well (except for today). Though I haven't been tracking my basal body temp I don't know for sure when I ovulated or how long my cycle truly is, but based on my guess I'm 9 DPO.

Here's the other kind of crazy part. A few weeks ago I had this dream that I went into a store and signed myself in because I was waiting to pick up something from behind the counter (kind of like a pharmacy). But then this person in a white coat appeared and told me that actually they did a test on me (???) and that I am pregnant! Random right? I didn't even remember it until I felt the mittelschmerz and I was overcome with this feeling, like "I am pregnant!"
Now, in a few days I am scheduled for a Planned Parenthood appt. to maybe get back on my pill because my hubby and I are second-guessing trying to have a baby and he's been really worried about money. However, they do a pregnancy test before anything to make sure that you're not pregnant. On the day of my appt. I will be 11 DPO, right in time for a +, right???
I have already done 2 HPT and both came back negative because I think it was too early. Sooo do ya'll think I'm preggers like I think I am, or just going nuts ahah
Has anyone else ever just felt like they KNEW and they were preggers?

well you just never know until you get the BFP or AF

I thought for sure last month I was pregnant based on symptoms I was having but AF came 4 days earlier than expected. I have had dreams where I have been told I was pregnant, where I've taken pregnancy tests that come out positive. So I have resorted to not giving into these scenerios/situations b/c it only leads to disappointment. It is hard not to think every little thing is a sign of pregnancy so I completely understand. It is cruel that AF symptoms and early preggo symptoms are so similar!

Agh I know. I tested today 11 DPO for another BFN

The sad thing is that I told myself I wouldn't, too, but all day I was smelling these crazy smells and craving weird food haha

I'll be testing again tommorow at Planned Parenthood and we shall see.....eek!

thanks! I tested again this morning and yesterday night. It was this weird dollar tree test that said that once the first line showed it meant that the test was finished, so after only one lined popped up in about half a minute I gave up (unlike the FRER tests where I'll wait 3 min)

but now they're showing really really faint second lines. I'm pretty sure that they're evap lines, and I KNOW you shouldn't look at them after ten minutes. Plus they're soooo faint. Gr.
