Re: Am I pregnant ? HELP - May 22nd 2011, 06:08 AM

Being stressed and worried over the situation certainly doesn't help your body. Your body responds physically to the mental stressors, and that includes delaying (or even stopping) your period sometimes. The sooner you allow yourself to calm down, the better off you'll be. You -can- literally worry yourself sick.

To put your mind at ease, go ahead and get a couple of store bought pregnancy tests. Try more than one brand name because they all work a little bit differently and follow the directions EXACTLY for relatively accurate results. If you get one that's a positive, head to the doctor and get a blood pregnancy test to be absolutely sure.

As I said, try not to stress because that can mess up your hormones even more and screw with the accuracy of the pregnancy test as well as screwing with your period. Try not to think about it too much until you get a positive read on a test. THEN you can worry just a little.
