Q: Pregnant Or Sick?

HI, My period is late for 2 weeks now. And since me and my boyfriend do not use birth control, there is a chance I could be pregnant. As a matter of fact, I have been feeling many of the early pregnancy symptoms like sore and tender breast for 2 weeks, increased vaginal discharge, lower abdominal and back cramping and extereme fatigue. We tested with a home test about 6 days ago and it read negative. I know I should just go to a dr, but I have to wait for 2 weeks for an appt. If anybody know anything about this, please give me some advise.

We can't tell you if you are pregnant or not. It's certainly possible, but you can't rely on symptoms alone. The symptoms for early pregnancy are pretty vague. They are also the symptoms of dozens of other things. There are also many reasons other than pregnancy for a period to be late. Many people have a negative first test. You can wait a week and test again.
