So, something is definitely going wacky with my hormones. I am approaching a week being late for AF. I took a test on the third day, and got a bfn. I figured at that point I was just late. On day 5, I started wondering again because my period is never this late. I have been super tired and super emotional. Tonight, while watching last week's episode of Cosmos, I started crying because they were talking about Michael Faraday's accomplishments and how he started losing his memory. I got totally choked up. I also re-watched Sunday's episode of Game of Thrones (which my bf missed so we watched it together tonight) and started crying at scenes I already knew happened. I'm still hoping for this to actually be a pregnancy. I've had 4 losses total and this would mean so much to me. Either way, I am crazy hormonal right now. Is it possible to be this emotional this early, or do you think I am just having some super PMS?
Other symptoms include frequent urination, extreme fatigue, and my breasts are pretty swollen, and I've even had some minor cravings-- but besides the urination and this moodiness it doesn't seem any less ordinary than when I am PMSing. I crave lots of crazy stuff when AF is on her way, not just your stereotypical chocolate. This time however, it's been sour cream. I can't seem to get enough of it. Again, this kind of weird stuff isn't completely unheard of for when I PMS...I'm a weirdo. I also have been constipated (sorry if TMI) and when I finally went, again, sorry for TMI, there was some bleeding because of what I assume are the hemorrhoids coming back, which first surfaced in my pregnancy 2 years ago that ended in a m/c. They resurfaced during the ectopic a year later, and are back again, another almost year and a half later. Is that even a symptom? I know once you get them, they never really go away and can resurface at any time. But could pregnancy be the reason? It seems to be the only time I get them. It's quite frustrating actually. I am getting mild cramping on and off and even had some sharp pain in my cervix for about a minute the other day. The one major difference with the cramping is that after I lost my left tube to an ectopic pregnancy last year, I get horrible pain when I am getting AF. It is almost crippling sometimes because of the scar tissue. The only thing that helped was birth control, but I chose to get off of it many months ago because I didn't want to mess with my body anymore. We are not actively TTC, but I am 30 and would like to become pregnant, even by happenstance. My bf is indifferent, so we're in the not trying/not preventing stage. I think he doesn't want to get his hopes up because of the past losses. They were hard on both of us. Anyway, this time I am not getting horrible pains, just some slight cramping that comes and goes. Could this be all in my head, perhaps wishful thinking? Or should I test again? And if so, when?
Sorry for the novel lol. Any advice would be wonderful!

They're pretty sensitive and accurate. Commonly found in drug stores and grocery stores across the land!
eventually. But I'd start with a sensitive test. Best of luck to you. I really hope you get yours. 
I'm pretty much a week late at this point.
