Answer 2

Stress can do that. I went 2 months without a period after breaking up with a boyfriend when I was younger. I also get myself so upset that it causes my hernia to react which also makes me sick to my stomach. A blood test at the doctor's would tell for sure. She should be on some sort of prenatal vitamins if she is pregnant. I had a friend who didn't show until she 5 months with all 3 of her babies, so you can't really go on the stomach getting bigger at only 3 months because everyone is different.

Acute stress is the most common and most recognizable form of stress, the kind in which you know exactly why you’re stressed: you were just in a car accident; the school nurse just called; a bear just ambled onto your campsite. Or it can something scary but thrilling, such as a parachute jump. It’s the kind of sudden jolt that triggers the hormonal and physiological effects listed above. Along with obvious dangers and threats, common causes of acute stressors include noise, isolation, crowding, and hunger.
Normally, your body rests when these types of stressful events cease and your life gets back to normal. Because the effects are short-term, acute stress usually doesn’t cause severe or permanent damage to the body.

In order to stop your speculation you should go to a specialist cause losing hair might be cause of a more serious disease...
