Any Ideas?

Question

So I've been feeling nauseous for the past week or so at random points in the day. I've only thrown up twice. I took a pregnancy test just to see and it came out negative. My period is only a little late so I'm not stressing about being pregnant yet. I have no idea what's going on though. Any ideas?

Answer

Scenario One:
I took my first test at what would have been 3.5 weeks pregnant because I was feeling nauseated all day for 4 days in a row. I was only one day late for my period, and not really expecting anything of it. It came out negative. When I started feeling my boobs grow as well as still feeling sick 2 weeks later I took a test and it was an instant dark positive.

Scenario Two:
My friend from work was feeling slightly dizzy, pretty nauseous, and exhausted. As these are all signs of pregnancy, and she was already 4 days late she was pretty nervous. She had her doctor do a blood test, got a negative, and her period showed up eventually (nearly 2 weeks late.) They told her that sometimes a build up of hormones can make you feel pretty icky and cause your period to be late.

So I say give it a few days, maybe a week and then try again. Could be period symptoms, could be pregnancy. Either way, it's still early.
