Hi saraleigh,

Since some of those symptoms can be signs of pregnancy, try a test. Be sure to follow the directions carefully.

How long ago was your period?

[saraleigh]

It was on the 26th bu ti am always on time and my periods always last 5 days never has it been late or not last 5 days

I'd get a pregnancy test and see what the results are.

[saraleigh]

Would it be best to get a blood test from the doctors?

Is there a reason you don't just want to do a HPT?

You can of course always go to the doctor.

Most home pregnancy tests are quite sensitive and accurate. I would start there. The important thing is to be sure to follow the directions to obtain accurate results.

It happens, but it is not the norm. If you prefer, ask your doctor for a blood test. They often will do a urine test in office as well... which most home tests are just as sensitive.
