Very early signs of pregnancy before period?

My husband and I had unprotected sex 3-4 weeks ago, a few times, and my period is not due to start until the end of this week. However, my cycles are usually irregular. I am 28 and I'm feeling a bit strange and am having random things happen to my body. My breasts have been sore on and off, I'm feeling bloated/swollen, have a loss of appetite and strange cravings, heartburn, constipation and I just discovered I have a hemorrhoid - my second in 2 weeks. Also my husband and i have noticed some severe mood swings in the last 4 or 5 days. And I do not ever experience mood swings before my period.
What's the deal here? I was pregnant in 2007, but ended in miscarriage. I have no other children. My only symptoms last time was that I was sick as a dog... none of the signs I am experiencing now. I'm just not sure and I don't know what to do about at home pregnancy tests. I did not show a positive result last time until I reached my second trimester. (Apparently this is a family trait as my mother never showed a positive result with me and not until month 6 with my sister with the home preg test.).
I am also having aches in my legs and lower back. I'm feeling exhausted, but having trouble getting comfortable and sleeping at night. Any ideas? Sound like the very early signs of pregnancy before a period? Would i even have symptoms like this so very early?
