How long since you had intercourse. Usually 14 days after intercourse a pregnancy test will show up positive if you are pregnant. Some pregnancy tests will show up a bit earlier. I don't think that you are pregnant as I do not think that it is normal to bleed when you are. But all the sickness, change in appitite etc can be signs of pregnancy. I would advise you to visit your doctor and take a pregnancy test there. The sooner you do this the sooner that your mind will be at ease. And if you are pregnant you will know early and you will have more time to decide what you want to do. Good luck!!

Jennigurl, it's unlikely that your pregnant. Missing a menstrual period is more common than some women realize. It often occurs as a result of undergoing a lot of stress, sickness and not eating right. Stress can also disrupt the normal hormonal balance in your body, causing your period to come late, or skip for one month. Don't worry too much, try to relax and eat right. You may want to make an appointment with your doctor for a check up. You will be okay.

With the symptoms your describing it sounds very likey. I have been pregnant before and felt very much the same. I was 2.5 months pregnant before I even realised I could be and did a test.
My friend was the very same once and kept doing tests and they kept coming up negative.
I suggest you try another test and if it still negative, then get down to the docs and get them to do one. The Docs test are 100% compared to Home ones.
Just to add you can still have a period or bleeding of some kind even if you are pregnant.

Hi. Welcome to the forum. Also, pregnancy is not an emergency so 'HELP!! " is really not appropriate and should have been thought of more in the 'prevention' stage.
First and foremost, when in doubt - Always see your doctor.
Second, Take a EPT or HPT, even though they might be negative does not mean your not.
