Tonya, it sounds as though you are ok waiting, at least for now. Since you've had a cyst before and the pain was much worse, and since your pain has gone away for the moment, chances are that isn't what you're dealing with.
When you were pregnant before with your son, did you notice these kinds of symptoms even before you could take a pregnancy test?
February 9 is just 5 days away; I believe the earliest pregnancy tests are supposed to detect pregnancy about 5 days before a missed period. So in just a couple of days you should be able to find something out.
"This month just feels different" -- that's something you should listen to, whether you think it might be a pregnancy or something else. We are the ones who know our own bodies the best, and we are the ones who just know when something is different. It may be that you had a poorly timed case of slight food poisoning, even. But it is definitely possibly that you had cramping from implantation of the embryo. Sometimes even women have slight spotting about 6-10 days after conception.
Here's a page from Discovery Health on the earliest signs of pregnancy. Are you having any of the others?
