I went to the Doctor's a few weeks ago to get the morning after pill.

However, I had some spotting about a week after I took it, and was convinced I was pregnant (had other symptoms, nausea, dizziness, some vomiting, and sore nipples ), although I took two tests which were both negative. I know I took them far too early but couldn't help myself!

My period was due yesterday, which is when I started spotting again...I know it's definately not a proper period because I have no pain which I usually do, and it's more brown than red, and really light. (sorry if TMI!)

I am going to take a test tomorrow morning.. but just wondered, if it's negative, should I go and see my Doctor anyway? Can they give me a blood test to find out? or is it possible I'm just paranoid and worrying too much and my period is just late??

And if it IS positive, when do I need to go and see my Doctor??

Sorry for long post, just would really appreciate some help on this!

Hi!
It does sound like you might be pregnant.
Did you take a home pregnancy test?
I don't really know if there is a 'right' time to go see your doctor after you find out you're pregnant. Probably should go soon after you find out.
If the test was negative you should go and get a blood test to make sure.
Of course, like you said, all of your symptoms could just be caused by stressing out about maybe being pregnant.
What I just wrote is kinda disjointed, sorry!
Let us know how everything works out!
Good luck!
