Hi and welcome to HCM.

Why scared of a pregnancy test, if you confirm if its pregnancy or not your future action can be decided based on the result.
A few days after conception, the fertilized egg attaches itself to wall of the uterus. This can cause one of the earliest signs of pregnancy -spotting and, sometimes, cramping. That's called implantation bleeding. It occurs anywhere from six to 12 days after the egg is fertilized.

Breast changes are another very early sign of pregnancy. breasts may become swollen, sore, or tingly a week or two later. Or they may feel heavier or fuller or feel tender to the touch. The area around the nipples, called the areola, may also darken.

You have signs of pregnancy and do a home pregnancy test and dont be disappointed if its negative. Consult a doctor if it is negative or positive for further follow up
