Early Pregnancy symptoms?

I've been taking the pill (stopped it now) but could be pregnant as DH and I had unprotected sex within 7 days of my starting it after a two week break.

The GP confirms it's too early to test, so in the mean time I was wondering if anyone else has ever had any of these symptoms in early pregnancy. All of which have led me to think I might be pregnant or am I being silly.

Runny nose
lower belly cramps (just like period pain but without bleeding)
sore nipples
Strong smell down there ( Blush TMI)

only just stopped it because I could be pregnant. I had a two week break from the pill and then had unprotected sex within seven days of starting the pill. That's about 15 days ago now. Apparently I should have waited until I had a period before I started on the pill, but I misread the instructions and thought I was covered from day 1.

The pack says, you are only fully (98%) covered if you have started the pill on the 1st day of your period. I didn't.

ahh i get you, yes if you start it when your not on 1st day of period you gota use pretection for a week. id give it a week before you test, if you are you should get a posative by this point. i tested 4 days before period was due and got a posative, so i wouldnt have been very far, just use a sensative test like predictor or early response :)
