Chemical pregnancy?

Heather

This is my first post here as my husband and I just recently decided to try for our second child. I’m currently on my period, which was five days late. I actually thought I was pregnant because I was feeling nauseous for several days before my period actually started. I’m on day three of my period and I’m still feeling nauseous off and on. It’s not debilitating... I can still eat. It’s just... a nagging nausea. It’s freaking me out. Has anyone else had random nausea before and during their period? Could it have been a chemical pregnancy? I’m so scared that now that we’ve finally decided to TTC, that something seriously wrong is happening to my body. (Note: I have really bad anxiety and I’m definitely a hypochondriac.)
