About 5 days ago I just had the feeling I was pregnant. I have been really bloated for about 5 days now I have felt nauseous but have not vomited, it hurts to lay on my stomach, I have been felling really tired, my nipples are darker than usually. Yesterday I did get some bleeding but I don't know if its my period or implantation bleeding... if this is not my period then I would be 3 days late on it... the blood is dark brown and I don't know what to think of my situation. I have not taken a home pregnancy test yet because I don't know if its to soon or what.. please help

You can take a pregnancy test as far as 5 days before a missed period with the technology in current HPTs. Use first morning urine to test as your hormone levels will be higher. If the test is negative wait a week and test again. If you have not had a normal period by then I suggest making an appointment with your doctor. He will be able to give you a blood test to know for sure and either find out why you haven't had a period yet, or start you on prenatal care depending on what the test says. If you are stressing about this it could cause your period to be late. I have always believed though, that a women's intuition is usually correct. I felt pregnant before I ever took a test, and I wasn't expecting to be, but I was.

It is best to wait until you are at least 1 week late, to give the hormones a chance to build up. Many tests claim to give you an accurate result before you miss your period, but if your hormones are slow to build up, you will still get a negative result, even if you are pregnant. When you test, make sure you use the first urine you pass when you wake up in the morning. Good luck. Here is some ******baby dust****** hope it works for you.

U should take a test most likely if you are pregnant it will come up.. I found out when I was only 2 weeks pregnant and I did spot... all those symptoms that you are having are the same that I had so you are most likely pregnant good luck
