Okay I am 18, and I have had unprotected sex a few times. My period came like 3 days late and when it came it was really heavy. I have been getting sick in the morning like I will vomit and stuff. I get dizzie just from sitting down. I have food cravings and my belly have gotten a little big(but I think that is from eating too much). Also during my period(when it did show up) I had really really really bad cramps and I never get cramps.

No I don't think so.

Question: Can you be pregnant and still get your period?
Answer: Well, no, you can't get your period once you're pregnant — once your body starts producing the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and your pregnancy is established, your menstrual cycle is interrupted and normal periods will stop — but you may have bleeding or spotting during pregnancy that can seem like a period.
Some pregnant women have what's called "implantation bleeding" that can happen around the time their period is due, and they may mistake that bleeding for a period. This spotting may be caused by the fertilized egg burrowing into the blood-rich lining of the uterus (a process that starts just 6 days after fertilization) and it's generally a lot lighter than a typical period — just a day or two of very light spotting.
If you're pregnant and you're not sure when your last period started, this can make establishing a due date difficult for your healthcare provider. If you have any doubts, your practitioner can feel how big your uterus is with a pelvic examination and estimate how far along you are. In most cases, your provider will also order an ultrasound before midpregnancy to measure the size of your developing baby to clarify exactly when the baby is due.
Many women who bleed a little bit in early pregnancy go on to deliver without any complications, but bleeding can also be a cause for concern. It may be the first sign of a miscarriage; if so, your symptoms will probably go on to include heavy cramping and bleeding much heavier than a normal period. If you have sharp pains in your lower abdomen, especially if the pain is only on one side, you should see your practitioner right way to find out if you may have an ectopic pregnancy (also known as a tubal pregnancy). Because of these potential complications, if you bleed at all early in your pregnancy, it's best to notify your doctor or midwife to get specific instructions. She may suggest getting a blood test to check your hCG levels or order an ultrasound to evaluate your condition more thoroughly

YES...you could be pregnant. Most Asian women get periods even when they are pregnant. I'm not sure what is your race..but there is a chance that you are pregnant. My sister in law have 3 beautiful kids and during her pregnancy with all three of them..she was having her period for the first three months.
But why torture yourself? Buy one of those over the counter test or go to your doctor and request for a blood test. Blood test never miss....

I think it's all in your head. If your period was only 3 days late, then you weren't pregnant. Pregnancy is a really involved process. If you're that concerned go see a doctor.

Yes you can be pregnant, however it could be from stress.Stress can have the same effect. Have you thought about the EPT test. That way you will know for sure if you are or are not pregnant. Whatever the outcome I wish you luck.
