Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding pregnancy symptoms is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception. For other women, symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy symptoms.
Implantation Bleeding:
Implantation bleeding can be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. About 6-12 days after conception, the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. Some women will experience spotting as well as some cramping.
Other Explanations: Actual menstruation, altered menstruation, changes in birth control pill, infection, or abrasion from intercourse.
Delay/Difference in Menstruation:
A delayed or missed menstruation is the most common pregnancy symptom leading a woman to test for pregnancy. When you become pregnant, your next period should be missed. Many women can bleed while they are pregnant, but typically the bleeding will be shorter or lighter than a normal period. This symptom is commonly explained by other reasons. If you have been sexually active and have missed a period, it is recommended that you take a test:

It is possible. Many women have different cycles and ovulate at different times. Just because you have been regular in the past is no guarantee of regularity in the future. Pregnancy tests are fairly accurate, particularly if you use your first morning urine. If you are concerned, I'd recommend repeating the test in 5 days and/or going to your local clinic or Planned Parenthood.

You have basicallly answered your own questions, yes you could very well be pregnant and it be to early to show up on a urine test, however a blood test would give you a more definite answer if you are willing to wait to see your doctor. But just retest in a couple of days and let us know what's going on.

it's possible and you may need to wait another week or two to test! Be sure to use the urine from first thing in the am!! Stress can also delay your cycle, but you still have a chance of being pregnant! Good Luck

Maybe, Maybe not... The more you stressthe further it will delay your period. If you I would just go get a home test, so you know, and can prepare yourself for a major life style change or it will put ease on your mind.
