First day of last period - May 9th
Had sex almost everyday since...

This past weekend I started feeling uncomfortable, crampy, and major headache on Saturday. Last night and tonight, I've been so crampy with upset stomach (no vomit, but lots of abd pain..) and I never get this way until I am actually on my period.

I am supposed to get my period on June 3rd. Do you think these are symptoms? I guess I just need to wait till next week so see if I get my period..

Did you end up getting your period? To me it sounds like PMS.

Just so you know, the first symptom is a missed period.
You wouldn't be experiencing other symptoms until around a few weeks after a positive reading.

Usually, but not necessarily. The earliest symptom I have heard of is spotting (implantation). Not all women experience this (around 20% of pregnant women) but it would only be a small amount of brown or light pink spotting (not heavy at all). This can occur before your missed period.
