Hello,
Welcome to HCM
I understand your concern.As your pregnancy tests have come has negative,you will not be pregnant.
Your symptoms are suggestive of you are suffering from pseudocyesis also called False pregnancy.
It is a rare condition in which a non-pregnant woman believes that she is pregnant, even though there is no physical evidence of pregnancy.They will often experience real pregnancy symptoms like nausea and vomiting,menstrual irregularity,the sensation of fetal movements known as quickening, even though there is no fetus present.
So, be assured and be calm.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
