Seek help as early as possible. Find out whether you are pregnant for sure, before you begin worrying. A missed period is the most obvious sign, but it doesn't always mean you're pregnant. Other symptoms include nausea and vomiting, sore breasts, a need to pass urine frequently and tiredness. If you think you are pregnant, have a test.
Urine tests are quick and generally accurate.
They are available from chemists, doctors and women's health services. Home test kits are available, but results should be checked by a health professional. Blood tests are available from doctors. A doctor's examination can also detect pregnancy from 6 to 8 weeks after your last period. You should have a test if you think you might be pregnant, and your period is more than one week late.
