okey.. theres a slight story behind this all.. but to make it somewhat short and as less complicated as possible- here goes..
In January I met up with my guy and we had sex (yes it was unprotected) we had sex on and off- from about the middle of January to the last couple days of January. And When February came I realized I had not had my period, though I thought little of it (i have irreular periods- i skip a month maybe two AT the most). By the end of February, still late, I began to have to pee more and I was finding I wasnt able to eat the foods I had liked to- so easily now (I had trouble even swollowing them, but if I got them down- I usually couldnt keep them down). March came and left- I started feeling a bit nausous when it comes to certain smells and foods. I took a test the beginning of February- it had come out negative, the next one- i took in the beginning of March didnt come out. April came-still late and now my boobs are becoming more sore. Mays here- still late and im kinda worried. Im so exhausted now- i want to just sleep for hours and hours- and then when im up and about- just going up the stairs winds me and makes my heart start racing. It doesnt take long before I feel like im going to pass out again. Sometimes out of nowhere I get dizzy for a moment and then it passes. Lately I seem to be more hungry- and I seem to be eating more frequently now as well. I get super hot and then super cold all the time. And my emotions- well.. they are completely out the window at this point..
Im nervous.. I dont know if im pregnant or not..
a little insight maybe?

You need to take a pregnancy test right now. If it comes out negative you need to see your doctor. If you are pregnant it is unhealthy and very dangerous to be this far along (You'd be in your second trimester) with no prenatal care.

That much I do know

Then... Why haven't you taken a pregnancy test...

I did in February and again in march. Right now- (like i said, im tryen to keep everything as less complicated and right to the point here) but i have no money to just go and buy a hpt, that and i have a hcg problem as well

The test you did in February was most likely taken too early. The one in March was inconclusive so you should have taken another one right then. If you don't have money to take a test maybe you should borrow the money, or go to a free clinic. Borrowing $20 is not a big deal for something this important. Worst case scenario, you and your baby end up dead. Is it sinking in yet? What the heck is an hcg problem?? How could you even possibly know you had one or not unless you've been pregnant before? And even if you have been pregnant before no pregnancy is the same there for your hcg levels wouldn't be the same. The only thing I can think of that's an "hcg problem" is maybe taking a while to get your levels up enough to get a positive test. And if that is the case, it's irrelevant now because something like that won't necessarily repeat itself.

You don't need one of those fancy, early responce, digital test, you can get a cheap generic test at the drug store or even go to the dollar store, they sell them too. Regardless of how it comes out though you will need to see a doctor. Good luck.

With a list of signs like that, it would be surprising if you were not pregnant. If your last good period was at the beginning of January, you could be 19 weeks pregant by now, your uterus should be up to the level of your belly button, and you should have been feeling some kind of fetal movement recently. I wonder if you are a little overweight to where some of these signs might be disguised, and perhaps a little in denial. Please go to the Health Department, a free clinic, or Birthright to have your suspicions confirmed. Good luck!
