Q: 

I wonder if I could be pregnant?

lI had unprotected sex with my husband a few days before my period was due. It came, but was not normal. I usually have a heavy darker period, and this was light and reddish/pink. Now, after my period is gone, I have abdominal cramps, my breasts feel heavy, and I noticed some lactation there, (I do have a 2.5 yr old, but only breastfed 8 weeks due to health issues.) I really want to have another baby, but I am wondering if I am just having wishful thinking that any of these signs could mean yes. How long do I have to wait before it would show on a pregnancy test? I would just wait to see if I miss my next period, but I don't have insurance, and some of the things I've read suggest there could be some other issue requiring medical attention. I would love to hear what you think. Thank you.
