Read this and then... if you still think so... GO BUY a test.
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: Find a Free Testing Center or Order my pregnancy test
Other Explanations: Excessive weight gain/loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, ceasing to take the birth control pill, or breast-feeding.
Swollen/Tender Breasts:
Swollen or tender breasts is a pregnancy symptom which may begin as early as 1-2 weeks after conception. Women may notice changes in their breasts; they may be tender to the touch, sore, or swollen.
Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation (PMS) can also cause your breasts to be swollen or tender.
Fatigue/Tiredness:
Feeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception.
Other Explanations: Stress, exhaustion, depression, common cold or flu, or other illnesses can also leave you feeling tired or fatigued.
Nausea/Morning Sickness:
This well-known pregnancy symptom will often show up between 2-8 weeks after conception. Some women are fortunate to not deal with morning sickness at all, while others will feel nauseous throughout most of their pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Food poisoning, stress, or other stomach disorders can also cause you to feel queasy.
Backaches:
Lower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy.
Other Explanations: Impending menstruation, stress, other back problems, and physical or mental strains.
Headaches:
The sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy.
Other Explanations: Dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, impending menstruation, eye strain, or other ailments can be the source of frequent or chronic headaches.
Frequent Urination:
Around 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom.
Other Explanations: Urinary tract infection, diabetes, increasing liquid intake, or taking excessive diuretics.
Darkening of Areolas:
If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker.
Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance unrelated to pregnancy or may be a leftover effect from a previous pregnancy.
Food Cravings:
While you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women will feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy.
Other Explanations: Poor diet, lack of a certain nutrient, stress, depression, or impending menstruation.

it dosent sound like she is pregnant to me. not eating all day can cause headaches, and drowsiness. if she feels sick when she's around food, its part of her eating problem. my best friend has an eating disorder, and she says she's sick when she's around food because she hates food. with the peeing in the middle of the night, mabye she's drinking alot of liquid in the evening. even if you drink something at six at night, then go to bed at 10, you'll probally end up waking up at 12 to go to the bathroom. what she's experiencing is normal because of the way she eats. get her to eat more through the day, the headaches will go away, and so will the sleepiness. dont be suprised if her period is late. people who dont eat right tend to have irregular periods. if she's due for her period in a week, its too early to have pregnancy symptoms. take care of her, i hope she starts eating better!

First, if her regular period is due in one week, that means her last ovulation (usually 14 days after 1st day of period) would have been 1 week ago. Pregnancy hormones don't usually even show up in most home tests until right after missed period because the homone levels are so low. The hormone levels are what makes the sick feeling in PG women, being so early I doubt she would be feeling the symptoms sooo early. I am on the doubting side of pregnant. I vote no.

She may be, or she may just be nervous about the same thing you are...sometimes with pregnancy on the brain, it can make you think you are...or maybe she's PMS-ing. Since she's only a week away from her period, she'll be able to take a First Response test in a couple days (you can take them up to 5 days before the period is due). Just buy her the test like a gentleman and set both of your minds to ease.

It could be several things. She could be pregnant. She could have a kidney problem. She could have a urinary infection. She could be a lot of things. The only way to tell is a pregnany test and a doctors exam and she's the only one who can do those things.
